MAINTENANCE
If the bowl-sealing blade does not operate freely after extended use, it may be
restored to its original, smooth operating condition by applying a light film of
silicone spray to the blade. To clean the toilet use Thetford Aqua Bowl or any
other high grade, non-abrasive cleaner. Do not use highly concentrated or high
acid content household cleaners. They may damage the rubber seals.
