under the bathroom cabinet.
11.7 Toilet
 Do not transport any loads in the shower tray. The shower tray or other
items of equipment in the toilet compartment can be damaged.
 For ventilation purposes during or after a shower, and for drying wet
clothing, close the toilet compartment door and open the window or the
toilet compartment skylight. This improves the air circulation.
 Close the shower curtain completely when showering, so that no water is
able to enter the area between the wash room wall and the shower tray.
 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.
 Further information about cleaning the toilet compartment can be found in
the section 12.3.

 If there is any risk of frost and the vehicle is not heated, empty the sewage
tank (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 in the manufacturer's instruction
manual.
 Only empty the sewage tank (cassette) at disposal stations, at camping
sites or caravan sites, that are especially provided for this purpose.
