The black tank flush is also called a “no fuss
flush.” The fresh water from the non-toxic
drinking water hose goes directly into the
black water holding tank where there is a
“sprayer” connection located. This allows you
to clean the black water holding tank by
removing debris and preventing accumulation.
There is a check valve incorporated in the
plumbing lines to prevent back flow. Flush the
black water tank each time the grey and black
water holding tanks are dumped or as
needed:
1. Dump the black water tank and leave the
black tank drain valve open.
2. Connect a garden hose from the water
supply source to the “black tank flush.”
3. With the water source turned ON, flush
the black water holding tank until the
water running out of the black tank drain
valve is clear (not discolored or cloudy).
4. Disconnect the garden hose and close the
“black tank drain” valve. Fasten the sewer
hose housing dust cap back on the “black
tank flush.”

OILET
The toilet is efficient and easy to operate.
Generally, more water is required only when
flushing solids. Prior to using the sanitation
system, it is strongly recommended to flush
the toilet several times to release sufficient
water into the holding tank. If there is not a
sufficient amount of water used during
flushing, the waste materials may not
evacuate properly from the drain line to the
tank. Clogged tanks and pipes could
eventually occur.
The toilet system will perform better when
water is run for ten to fifteen seconds after
flushing to ensure that the waste will proceed
to the bottom of the tank. Unlike a toilet in a
home, which may use up to seven gallons of
water per flush, the average recreation
vehicle system uses one to three quarts (1 - 3
liters). For added convenience and better
sanitation system performance, it is advisable
to always have four to six inches (10 - 15 cm)
of water in the toilet.
To prevent help toilet blockage, always use
RV grade single-ply toilet paper. Do not flush
paper towels, diapers, sanitary napkins or
other foreign objects down the RV toilet.
Sewage (black) tank preparation
1. Release one to two quarts (1 or 2 liters) of
water into the toilet bowl.
2. Follow the directions on your toilet
chemical bottle (customer supplied), by
It is important to add enough water to
prevent solid waste buildup. Follow the
directions listed below and in the OEM
operator’s manual
It is important to prevent solid waste
buildup. Follow the toilet manufacturer’s
recommended instructions each time after
emptying the black water holding tank.
Do not use the same hose to fill your fresh
(potable) water tank that is used for the
black tank flush.
The black tank drain valve must be OPEN
any time there is a hose (water supply)
connected to the black tank flush.
Do not leave any hose (water supply)
connected to the black tank flush when it is
not in use.
