4.0 Using the toilet

4.1 Cleaning

Before using the toilet for the first time, we recommend cleaning the toilet on the inside and outside.

Use a soft cloth and lukewarm water with a mild detergent. Then rinse the surfaces with clear water.

CAUTION!

Cleaning agents for the toilet must not contain chlorine or alcohol!

i

For regular cleaning, Dometic offers "Dometic Quality CARE", an effective toilet cleaning agent from the "Dometic CARE" range (see notes in Section 1.10) which is tailor-made for your toilet's surfaces.

4.6 Emptying the cassette tank

Empty the cassette tank when the level indicator LED lights up.

The cassette tank has a capacity of 19 l. When LED (4), Fig. 10, lights up, the tank is approx. 80% full. This means that it can be used only a couple of times.

Remove the cassette tank as described in section "4.3".
- Carry or wheel the holding tank to the nearest authorized waste disposal point.

The cassette tank is provided with wheels and a pull-out handle. To unlock the handle, push in the button (1) in middle of the handle. Pull out the handle until it stops.

To bring the handle back into its original position, press the handle's unlock key and push the handle back into the cassette.

Place the cassette tank in an upright position and turn the emptying spout upwards. Remove the cap from the spout.

CAUTION!

Avoid turning the spout by more than 90^ as it may otherwise come loose.

CAUTION!

Do not shake the cassette tank violently.

Do not clean the inside of the cassette tank with a high pressure cleaner.

This can damage the float for the filling level indicator.

Fig. 16

Hold the cassette tank with one hand by the handle (2). With the other hand hold it at the blade handle (3) so that you can operate the vent button (1) during emptying.

The vent button should only be pressed once the emptying spout is pointing downwards. The tank empties evenly and without squirting.

After emptying, flush the cassette tank thoroughly with water. Then make the tank operational again as described in section "4.2", before inserting it in the toilet.

4.7 Exchanging the fuse on the control panel

CAUTION!

Cut off power supply before starting to work!

4.8 Winter operation

You can continue to use the cassette also in winter, as long as the toilet and the cassette are situated in a frost-protected location.

If this is not the case, empty the fresh water tank, the cassette tank and the water pipes of fresh water supply. This prevents damage due to frost (see "4.9 Decommissioning").

CAUTION!

Do not use anti-freeze agents. Such agents can damage the sanitation system.
