Frequently Asked Questions - 966 Sanipottie DOMETIC

How to prepare the toilet before first use?

Before each use, lid closed, pull then push the handle to reduce pressure. Fill the upper tank with fresh water and pour deodorizer directly into the lower tank.

How to drain the lower tank?

Make sure the sliding valve is closed. Separate the upper unit, take the lower tank to an authorized disposal point, remove the lid and empty. Rinse and reassemble.

Which cleaning products to use?

Preferably use SeaLand® Toilet Bowl Cleaner or any non-abrasive sanitary cleaner (Bar Keeper's Friend, Clorox, SaniFlush). Follow label instructions.

How to lubricate the sliding valve?

If flushing becomes difficult to pull, lubricate the valve seals with a silicone spray.

What to do to use the toilet in winter?

Add a non-toxic antifreeze for potable water system to the fresh water tank (quantity for 15 L). Never use alcohol-based or automotive antifreeze.

How to install the floor mounting brackets (models 964/965)?

Open the side locks, place the brackets under the tank, mark the holes, attach the brackets to the floor with the provided screws, then place the toilet between the brackets and lock.

What is the warranty of the Dometic 966 toilet?

1 year for personal, family or household use; 90 days for commercial or professional use, from the date of purchase.

Where to find spare parts for the 966 model?

Contact Dometic or an authorized dealer. The manual lists parts (lid, pump, tanks, seals) with their reference numbers.

How does the bellows pump work?

Press the bellows pump to add water to the bowl before use, especially to flush solid waste. Press once or several times after flushing to rinse.

Why should you pull the handle before each use?

This allows to reduce excess air pressure in the lower tank due to temperature or altitude changes.

MOUNTING BRACKETS

Models 964MSD, 965MSD WARNINGS

Dometic marine toilet systems must be installed according to Dometic's recommended procedures. Equipment damage, injury to personnel or death could result from improper installation. DOMETIC CORPORATION ACCEPTS NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY FOR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT, OR INJURY OR DEATH TO PERSONNEL THAT MAY RESULT FROM IMPROPER INSTALLATION, SERVICE OR OPERATION OF THIS PRODUCT.

WARNING!

HAZARD OF FLOODING - If the toilet

system is connected to ANY through-the-hull fittings, properly installed seacocks MUST be installed in all piping connected to through-the-hull fittings. Seacocks MUST be easily accessible to all users of the toilet system or secondary valves fitted in hoses where they are easily accessible. ALWAYS close seacocks when toilet system is not in use (even if boat is unattended for a brief period. All valves MUST be full bore valves and marine quality. Screw-to-close gate valves are not recommended. Failure to comply can result in flooding which can cause loss of property and life.

WARNING!

HAZARD OF FLOODING - If toilet is used to ANY through-the-hull fittings, ALL hoses must be of marine sanitation quality. Must be secured to ANY fittings (such as in the seacock, vented loop or toilet) with two or 3 steel, worm-drive hose band clamps at a connection. Connections MUST be checked properly for integrity. Failure to comply can lead to flooding which can cause loss of dry and life.

WARNING!

HAZARD OF FLOODING - If toilet rim

is below the waterline at ANY time (during any conditions of heel, load or trim) and is connected to ANY through-the-hull fittings, properly positioned ventilated (vented) loops MUST be installed in discharge piping to prevent potential back siphonage of seawater into the boat. Failure to do so can result in flooding which can cause loss of property and life.

INSTALLATION

Models 964MSD, 965MSD

Portable toilets are legally acceptable for use in vessels not having permanently installed toilets, as determined by the United States Coast Guard. However, some states and the Canadian province of Ontario require a permanently installed portable toilet, such as the 964MSD and 965MSD.

Installation Possibilities

MARINE SANITATION REGULATIONS

All boats with fixed toilets in U.S. waters and in the waters of some other countries are required to have an operable, permanently installed marine sanitation device (MSD). Series 960 MSD models, when permanently installed in a boat, are holding tank or Type III systems as defined by the U.S. Coast Guard. Type III systems permit operation of the toilet without direct discharge of untreated waste after every flush. Type III systems can be discharged at marina dockside pump-out stations or, if in coastal waters, a minimum of three miles offshore. Overboard discharge capability must remain secured while within the three-mile limit. If an overboard discharge pump is activated by a keyed switch in the toilet compartment, the key must be removed at all times except when discharge pump is operating and in the process of vessel operation.

Sewage from any source should not be discharged directly into boating waters. If you are interested in learning more about this issue, please visit our website at www.Dometic.com.

This symbol appears on the discharge fitting of MSD models.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning

For most effective cleaning, use SeaLand® Toilet Bowl Cleaner. It's intended for use with all Domatic toilets. If you cannot find it in your area, contact Domatic for your nearest dealer. If it is not available, you can also use most non-abrasive bathroom and toilet bowl cleaners (Bar Keeper's Friend® spray cleaner, Clorox® toilet bowl cleaner, SaniFlush® toilet bowl cleaner, etc.). Follow label instructions.

Maintenance

If flush handle becomes difficult to pull, lubricate slide valve seals with silicone spray.

WINTERIZING

Use

When using the Dometic portable toilet in cold or winter weather, the addition of nontoxic antifreeze designated for potable water systems provides safe winter protection. Use amounts specified on container that are safe for use with 4 gallons (15 l) of water.

NOTE: Never use alcohol-based or automotive-type antifreeze in freshwater systems.

Storage

To store Dometic portable toilet during the winter:

1. Empty freshwater tank and holding tank.
2. Make sure all water is cleared from freshwater tank's water lines by pressurizing tank and pushing flush button until no water enters bowl.

A small amount of water may remain in bottom of freshwater tank but will be harmless during winter storage.)
