FRESH WATER TOILET

The fresh water toilet in your motor home is
very similar to the household type, except that it
is designed to use only a small amount of water
per flush. It uses a high velocity jet of water, pro-
ducing a swirl effect, to efficiently cleanse the
bowl. And since each flush uses fresh water, no
special chemicals are required other than a de-
odorizing agent, if necessary.
Flushing The Toilet
1. To add water to the bowl before using, step
on the small pedal to the right. Hold pedal
until desired level of water is reached.
Release pedal slowly - do not allow it to snap
back. Generally, more water is required only
when flushing solids
2. To flush the toilet, step on the small pedal to
the right. (The black lever also moves the
white lever.) Hold pedal until bowl is clean
3. Release pedal slowly. A small amount of
water should remain in the bowl.

maintenance instructions.
Important "Don'ts"
· Don't use facial tissue or regular toilet tissue
in the RV toilet. These will not disintegrate
sufficiently and will often cling to the sides of
the holding tank. Toilet tissue made specifi-
cally for use in RV toilets and holding tanks
is available at most RV supply centers.
· Don't dispose of sanitary napkins or other
non-dissolving items in the toilet.
· Don't put automotive antifreeze or caustic
chemicals, such as laundry bleach or heavy
detergents into the toilet or holding tank.
These products may damage plastic or rubber
parts in the system.
Cleaning The Toilet
The toilet should be cleaned regularly for
maximum sanitation and operating efficiency. If
an odor is apparent from the toilet:
1. Clean the toilet bowl with a mild bathroom
cleaner. Do not allow cleaners to set in the
bowl for long periods of time to avoid dam-
aging the seals. Do not use caustic or abra-
sive cleaners because it may damage the
plastic surfaces.
2. Dump and rinse holding tank.
3. Add odor control chemical in amount speci-
fied after cleaning and every few days during
use.
4. Remove the water line from the base of the
toilet and clean the screen.
5. If the flush valve becomes stiff after
extended use, it may be lubricated with a sil-
icone spray.Turn the water pump off and
operate flush pedal to drain water from the
toilet bowl. Spray silicone lubricant onto
flush valve inside bowl and operate flush
pedal a few times to ensure free operation.
See instructions in Section 10 to prepare the
toilet for storage in freezing conditions.
