Preparing for use (standard)
• Open the access door on the outside of your Caravan.
• Remove the Waste Holding Tank by pulling the safety
catch (which holds the tank in place) upwards.
• Pull the Waste Holding Tank outward to the stop. Tip
it slightly and take the tank fully out.
• Place the tank upright and turn the rotating emptying
spout upwards. The emptying spout ensures that the
tank can be easily and hygienically emptied.
• Remove the cap, with the measuring cup inside, from
the emptying spout and pour the correct dosage
of Thetford toilet uid (see product label) into the
holding tank. This avoids unpleasant smells and keeps
the inside of the tank clean. Next add approximately
2 litres of water - enough to ensure that the bottom
of the Waste Holding Tank is covered. Screw the cap
back onto the emptying spout and turn back to its
original position. The Emptying Spout Measuring
Cap is supplied inside the toilet. Never add toilet
uid directly via the blade or the toilet bowl as this
could damage the lip seal of the Waste Holding Tank.
Always pour the uids via the emptying spout. The
lip seal is the water tight seal around the top of the
tank.
• Slide the Waste Holding Tank back into its original
position via the access door. Make sure that it is
secured with the safety catch. Close the access door
and lock it. Your Thetford toilet is now ready to use.
• Never use force if you cannot get the tank back into
place easily. This may cause serious damage. If
blockage occurs, always check that the blade handle
is in the correct position.
• For toilets with own Flush-Water Tank: Open the
water lling door and ll the ush-water tank with
the correct dosage of Aqua Rinse. This Thetford
toilet uid keeps the ush water fresh and improves
the ushing. Next, ll up the ush-water tank with
clean water (approximately 8 litres) using a watering
can or hose. Your toilet is now ready to use.
Using the toilet (standard)
• Turn the bowl to the desired position with the lid
closed and using both hands.
• To activate the control panel, press the ush-button
once. The control panel display will stay activated
for approximately 5 minutes. Run some water into
the bowl by pressing the ush button again briey.
• The toilet may be used with the blade open or closed.
To open the blade, slide the blade handle under the
toilet bowl sideways. After use, open the blade (if
still closed) and ush the toilet by pressing the ush
button for several seconds (if necessary re-activate
the control panel). Close the blade after use. If your
toilet has its own ush-water tank, please make sure
that you do not travel with a ush-water tank that is
too full. Do not travel with water in the toilet bowl.
Failure to adhere to this notice may result in water
damage to your caravan.
Emptying
• The Waste Holding Tank has a capacity of 18 litres
and requires emptying when the red light (LED)
on the toilet control display lights up. The Waste
Holding Tank only has capacity for two more litres
which is no more than two to three further uses.
• Place the Waste Holding Tank in an upright position
(Pull-Out Handle at the top, Wheels at the bottom).
Slide the handle sideways - to the front of the tank
- until it snaps out of its locked position. Pull the
handle up and wheel the Waste Holding Tank to an
authorised waste disposal point. Push the handle
back into its locked position. Turn the emptying
spout upwards and remove the cap from the spout.
Hold the Waste holding Tank in such a way that during
emptying you can operate the vent plunger with
your thumb. To empty the tank without splashing,
depress the vent plunger while emptying the tank.
After emptying, rinse the tank and blade thoroughly
with water.
• Do not vigorously shake the tank or use high
pressure water cleaners. This may cause damage to
the tank’s interior.
• The vent plunger should only be depressed once the
emptying spout is pointing downwards. Prepare the
toilet for re-use if required. Slide the Waste Holding
Tank into the toilet and close the access door.
Cleaning and Maintenance
• The toilet should be cleaned and maintained
regularly, depending on the amount of use. To clean
Thetford toilets, we advise using water and Thetford
Bathroom Cleaner. Never use bleach, vinegar or
other powerful household cleaners that contain
these substances. These may cause permanent
damage to the seals and other toilet components.
Caravan Equipment
Toilet Bowl
• Squirt Thetford Bathroom Cleaner into the toilet
bowl.
• Flush the toilet bowl with water and wipe down the
rest of the toilet with a damp cloth.
• Clean seat and lid. The seat and lid can easily be
removed: Lift the seat and lid assembly and pull the
round pins (inside the assembly) outwards from the
pin holes. After cleaning, replace the seat and lid by
positioning the round pins in front of the pin holes
and push the lid and seat downwards.
• To keep your ush water fresh and to prevent
deposits forming in your toilet bowl, add a correct
dosage of Aqua Rinse in your ush water tank.
• Tip! For a really shining toilet, dry with a soft dry
cloth after cleaning.
Waste Holding Tank
To keep your Waste Holding Tank fresh and clean,
Thetford has developed a number of different toilet
uids. Thetford toilet uids suppress smells, reduce
formation of gas, promote breakdown of toilet waste
and increase the life span of a mobile toilet. We advise a
thorough cleaning of the Waste Holding Tank once each
