Toilet; Black Water Holding Tank; Gray Water Holding Tank - Tiffin Motorhomes Allegro Bus 2016 Owner's Manual

TOILET

The toilet (Figure 12-9) operates with water from either the fresh water
tank with the water pump "on" or the city water supply. Before using the
toilet, add water to the bottom of the tank. Refer to the "BLACK WATER
TANK" instructions.
The toilet flushes waste directly into the black-water holding tank. It is im-
perative that you use as much water as possible when flushing to prevent
tissue and other solids from clogging the holding tank outlet.
When using your toilet, fill the toilet ¾ full of water. To add water to the
toilet bowl, push the pedal lever 1/4 of the way down until the desired
water level is reached. To flush the toilet, push down on the lever until the
water swirls. A small amount of water should remain in the bowl.
The toilet should be cleaned regularly for maximum sanitation and opera-
tional efficiency. Clean the toilet bowl with a mild bathroom cleaner.

BLACK WATER HOLDING TANK

The "black water" (i.e., sewage) holding tank is located directly beneath the toilet. Before using the
toilet, you will need to treat the tank with water that is mixed with an odor-controlling chemical. These
chemicals are readily available at any RV supply store. Pull the toilet levers forward to allow the chem-
icals to mix with the toilet water. Continue pulling the toilet levers until a depth of at least one inch of
solution is directly under the toilet. Release the levers and the waste tank is now ready for use.

GRAY WATER HOLDING TANK

The gray-water holding tank is located in the underbelly of the vehicle. It is primarily used for the
drainage from the kitchen and bath sinks and the shower.
