| CLEARING DISCHARGE LINES Sanitation hoses should be cleared if toilet will not be needed for an extended period of time (more than two weeks). 1. Fill toilet bowl with water and add 4 oz. (120 ml) of biodegradable laundry detergent (should NOT contain bleach). 2. Flush toilet, holding pedal down for about two minutes. Close flush ball. 3. Turn off water supply to toilet. 4. Flush the toilet without water, allowing the vacuum pump to shut off after the flush. Repeat three times. (This procedure will minimize any remaining water in the sanitation hoses.) 5. Turn off power to the vacuum pump. 6. Completely pump out holding tank. If system will be subjected to freezing temperatures, please follow above procedure, then winterize system as described in this manual. |
