Waste water tank
The waste water tank is integrated in the chassis; it is insulated.
After the heating system has been switched on on the control
panel, the hot air is conducted to the waste water tank. This
prevents the waste water from freezing in a light frost.
Exception:
Alde hot water heating system
*
(
please refer to description in
Chapter 10.2.2
)
Do a small quantity of antifreeze agent (e.g. table salt) to
the waste water tank if temperatures are significantly below
freezing to prevent the waste water from freezing.
The waste water tank is not sufficiently protected against
damage from frost when the vehicle is not in use.
Therefore, if there is any danger of sub-zero temperatures
empty the waste water tank completely.
Never pour boiling water down the sink. This can cause
distortions and leaks in the waste water system.
Use the control panel to check the amount of water in the
waste water tank.
Connection for outside shower
Only empty your waste water tank at the specially desi
-
gnated disposal points and never in open spaces! As a rule
disposal points can be found at motorway service stations;
campsites and petrol stations.
