Motorhome Care
The Thetford Cassette porta potti is easily
winterised for storage. Empty the fresh water
tank using the drain tube/fresh water tank
level indicator (level indicator on electronic
models only). Pull the lever indicator/drain
tube down from top plug position and
outward through door opening to drain water
from the tank.
Empty the water fill funnel by pulling the
bottle away from tank. Remove the small
water cap on the filler bottom, allowing water
to drain from the water funnel.
Do not tighten caps, this helps in keeping
unit dry.
The pour out spout and vent plug can be
removed. Seals should be greased if
necessary with acid-free vaseline.
Remove the drain stop plugs on the fresh
water pipes. These are located through the
floor on the underside of the motorhome.
If a fresh water tank is fitted, drain the tank
via underfloor drain tap/plug.
Leave the drain plugs and taps open.
The motorhome may be left in this condition
over winter or until ready to use. It is
recommended to leave the taps in the open
position during storage.
Recommissioning the Water System
Fill the fresh water tank on the Thetford
Cassette porta potti (certain models only)
using a hose or jerrycan until the water in the
funnel reaches the neck. Tank capacity is 15
litres. Aqua Rinse may be added to improve
cleaning of bowl and flushing of unit.
Replace cap. Swing back the water fill funnel
until it touches the water tank.
Add Aqua Kem (100 ml) into the Cassette (or
120 ml if using Aqua Kem Bio) through the
pour out spout. Add small amount of water
through the pour out spout and replace the
cap.
Close the cold taps and ensure all the drain
plugs are fitted.
It is advisable after storage to flush the water
system initially with a sterilising agent (such
as Milton), and then with water repeating
until the system is well flushed through.
Connect the pump.
Fill the system with water until water flows
freely from the hot taps. About 2 gallons of
water will be required. Close the hot taps.
Appliances
Before starting motor caravanning after
storage, check all gas appliances and
electrical points.
Note: Preferably not less than once a year,
the electrical installation should be inspected
and tested by a qualified electrician.
After storage it is advisable to air the
motorhome and clean throughout, especially
cooking appliances and the refrigerator.
Replace the bedding and wheels if they were
removed for storage.
Important
Always follow the manufacturer's
recommended procedures after use of fitted
equipment in the motorhome and before
storing for any length of time.
CARING FOR THE
ENVIRONMENT
After many years of service you may decide
that your motorhome has become beyond
economic repair and should be disposed of.
Please ensure that you comply with the end
of life vehicle legislation and take it to an
authorised treatment facility where it will be
properly dealt with to minimise any negative
environmental impact. The transaction will
be logged at the DVLA, identifiying that you
are no longer the owner of the vehicle.
