The RV toilet in your Airstream is a design that has been used for many years. There are
two pedals. The large pedal opens and closes the slide mechanism, and the smaller
pedal opens and closes a water valve.
In normal use, when you are hooked up to city water, both pedals are depressed
together. This dumps the sewage and fresh water and flushes down the side of the
bowl. Water will continue to run into the bowl for a short time after the pedals are
released.
When you wish to conserve water hold the hand-spray head over the bowl and hold
down the thumb-operated lever. Now when you depress the pedal all the water is
routed through the hand-spray.
CAUTION
: When you dump the bowl of the toilet make sure all paper and solids
have cleared the slide mechanism before you allow it to close. Failure to do so can
cause the groove for the slide to become jammed and the slide will no longer close
completely.
If the problem should occur a small nail or bent clothes hanger can be used to "pick"
the material out of the groove.
