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 pace 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 motor home.
Emptying
The Waste Holding Tank has a capacity of 18
litres and required emptying when the red light
(LED) on the toilet control display lights up.
When 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 vigourosly 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.
Emptying with Optional Features
Waste Holding Tank Multi-Level Indicator: The
lower lamp indicates that the Waste Holding
Tank is almost empty; the middle lamp indicates
that it is more than half full; when the upper
lamp lights up, the tank needs emptying as it
can only take 2 - 3 further uses.
The Waste Holding Tank Level Indicator will
ash when the holding tank is not present. In
this case the toilet will not ush.
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.
