The toilet system will perform better when water is run for ten to fifteen seconds after flush-
ing to ensure that the waste will proceed to the bottom of the tank.
If there is not a sufficient amount of water used during flushing, the waste materials may not
evacuate properly from the drain line to the tank. Clogged tanks and pipes could eventually
occur. For added convenience and better sanitation system performance, it is advisable to
always have four to six inches (10 - 15 cm) of water in the toilet. It is important to add
enough water to prevent solid waste buildup. The following guidelines will help to prevent
solid waste buildup.
Sewage (black) tank preparation
1.
Release one to two quarts (1 or 2 liters) of water into the toilet bowl.
2.
Follow the directions on your (approved RV) toilet chemical bottle (customer sup-
plied), by placing the recommended quantity of holding tank chemical into the toilet
bowl.
3.
Flush the toilet and allow at least two gallons (8 liters) of water to flow into the holding
tank.
Cleaning and maintenance
The toilet should be cleaned regularly for maximum sanitation and operational efficiency.
