line at a campground, keep the “black tank
drain” valve closed until the holding tank is at
least ¾ full. This should provide sufficient
water to assist in complete draining of the
black water holding tank. Repeat as needed.
Before using the RV or after dumping the grey
and black water holding tanks, always add the
proper amount of deodorant to the black water
tank to prevent malodors and help break down
holding tank contents (unless winterizing).
Follow the deodorant bottle or package
instructions. Driving to a disposal site will
normally loosen any accumulated waste
debris or solids from the sides of the holding
tanks.
Never leave the black tank drain in the open
position continuously when connected to the
campground sewer system.

A pad is attached to the exterior bottom side of
the holding tank. Heat is supplied by 12-volt
DC power through the heating element built
into the pad. Approximately 6-8 amps of
energy per pad is consumed and fused
through the 12-volt power supply board. An
internal thermostat is built into components of
the heat pad to control temperature and assist
in energy conservation.
The control switch to turn the holding tank heat
pads ON or OFF is located on an interior wall in
or near the bathroom. Power to heating pads
should be turned off until:
1. Water is in the holding tank.
2. The temperature drops to 34°F (1°C).
3. The motorhome is parked, set up and all
attachments performed.
Turn the heated holding tank pads OFF
when dumping and draining the holding
tanks.

The grey tank drain and black tank drain are
also referred to as dump valves. Always drain
the black water holding tank first so the
following grey tank waste water can help rinse
any solids or debris from the dump outlet and
sewer hose.
1. To make drainage easier, level the RV.
2. Remove the sewer hose housing dust cap,
and attach the sewer hose (customer
supplied).
3. Place the end of the sewer hose into the
approved dump station.
4. Open the black tank dump valve (close the
dump valve when the black water holding
tank is emptied).
5. Open the grey tank dump valve (close the
dump valve when the grey holding tank is
emptied).
6. Remove, clean and store the sewer hose.
7. Close the sewer hose housing dust cap.
Most states and parks have strict laws and
regulations to prohibit dumping of wastes into
any kind into anything other than proper
disposal facilities or sewer systems. Almost all
privately owned parks offer a campsite hookup
for sewage. You can locate many dump
stations throughout the United States and
Canada in Woodall’s, Rand McNally Camp
Guide, Good Sam Camp Guide, KOA
Kampgrounds Camp Guide and various other
publications. Some fuel stations also have
dump stations.
Please contact your RV dealer for assistance
in the purchase and installation of a sewer
hose or sewer hose extension (if needed).

PLUMBING SYSTEM
WARNING
Do not add automotive antifreeze or caustic
chemicals such as laundry detergents into
the holding tanks. Although these products
may have a deodorizing effect, they may
damage the plastic and rubber parts of the
plumbing system or the components.
