11.7 Toilet
11.7.1 Swivel toilet
The flushing of the Thetford toilet is fed directly from the water system of the
vehicle. The toilet bowl can be moved into the optimal position.
Flushing:
Before flushing open the sliding trap of the Thetford toilet. To do this, push
the slide lever (Fig. 159,1) in an anticlockwise direction.
For flushing, press the blue flush button (Fig. 160,1).
After flushing close the sliding trap. To do this push the slide lever in a
clockwise direction.
The indicator lamp (Fig. 160,2) goes on whenever the Thetford cassette has
to be emptied.
Emptying:
Turn the slide lever (Fig. 159,1) in a clockwise direction. The sliding trap is
closed. To empty, the sliding trap in the Thetford toilet must be closed.
Remove the Thetford cassette and empty it as described in sections 11.7.4
and 11.7.5.
After taking a shower, rinse soap residue from the shower tray, otherwise
cracks can appear in the shower tray over time.
After using the shower, wipe it dry to prevent moisture from collecting.
If there is any risk of frost and the vehicle is not heated, empty the Thetford
cassette.
Do not sit on the lid of the toilet. The lid is not designed to bear the weight
of a person and could break.
Use a suitable chemical for this toilet. The ventilation will merely remove
the odour but not germs and gases. Germs and gases will have a detri-
mental effect on the sealing rubbers.
Further information can be obtained from the separate "Thetford cassette"
instruction manual.
Only empty the Thetford cassette at disposal stations, at camping sites or
caravan sites, that are especially provided for this purpose.
