Winterization and Storage

When a Dometic toilet is stored for long periods of time or may be exposed to temperatures below

freezing, the toilet must be winterized or stored according to one of the following procedures.

Caution
This toilet is not intended for use when exposed to temperatures below freezing.

Caution
Never use automotive-type antifreeze (ethylene glycol) in freshwater systems.

Note
Use nontoxic antifreeze (propylene glycol) designated for potable water systems.
(See vehicle owner’s manual.)

Storage options

Non-toxic Antifreeze Winterization (recommended method)
1. Pour antifreeze in potable water tank according to instructions from antifreeze

manufacturer.

2. Flush toilet several times until antifreeze has flowed completely through toilet. For toilets

with hand sprayer, the hand sprayer must be turned on to assure antifreeze is cycled

through the sprayer.

Cleaning

For routine cleaning, use SeaLand

®

Toilet Bowl Cleaner.

If this cleaner cannot be found in your area, contact
Dometic for your nearest dealer. If the cleaner is not
available, use most any non-abrasive bathroom and
toilet bowl cleaner. Please follow label instructions.


FLUSH BALL CLEANING: After a period of time, mineral
deposits from hard water may build up on the flush ball or
seal, resulting in a slow water leak. To prevent this, periodi-
cally clean the flush ball and seal.
1. Remove minor debris from the flush ball and seal by slowly pressing and releasing the flush pedal

several times. This will loosen and rinse debris from the surfaces. Repeat several times for

stubborn buildup.

2. If step 1 does not fully clean the ball and seal, clean with a soft bristle brush and SeaLand Toilet

Bowl Cleaner. Turn off water supply to toilet. Fully clean the top of the flush ball and under the seal

where it contacts the flush ball.

3. After cleaning underside of seal, apply light downward pressure to top of seal while brushing

around full perimeter of seal.

4. Turn on water supply. Press flush lever to open flush ball, and use brush and water to rinse away

cleanser and loosened deposits.
