Toilet; P-Traps - NewMar Scottsdale Class A 2006 Owner's Manual

Toilet

The standard toilet in your unit is a china stool. The toilet operates with water
from either the fresh water tank with the water pump on or the city water
supply. Before using the stool, add water to the bottom of the tank. Refer to the
"BLACK WATER TANK" instructions in this chapter. The stool flushes
waste directly into the black water holding tank. The stool uses high velocity
water injection to produce a swirl effect in the bowl. The greatest problem that
causes stool solids to build up in the holding tank is lack of liquids. When
using your stool, it is wise to fill the stool 3/4 full of water. This will help to
wash the solids away from directly below the stool and to ensure complete
dumping of the holding tank. To add water to the stool bowl, lift or raise the
flush lever until the desired water level is reached. To flush the stool, push
down on the lever until the water swirls. A small amount of water should
remain in the bowl.
The stool should be cleaned regularly for maximum sanitation and operational
efficiency. Clean the toilet bowl with a mild bathroom cleaner. Do not use
chlorine or caustic chemicals, such as laundry bleach or drain opening types,
as they will damage the seals in the toilet and dump valves.
Refer to the toilet manufacturer's owner's manual in your Owner's Package
for complete instructions and a troubleshooting guide.

P-Traps

Each of the sink drains, the shower drain, and the washing machine drain (if
equipped) has a water trap (P-Trap) to prevent holding tank odors from
entering the coach. These traps must have water in them in order to trap the
odors. While traveling, the water may splash out of the sink and shower drains.
While stored, the water may evaporate allowing an odor to enter the coach. If
this occurs, run water from the faucet into the drain, allowing water to fill the
trap.
