Cleaning

8.1 Routine toilet cleaning
For routine cleaning, use Dometic Toilet Bowl Cleaner . If you cannot find it 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 .
8.2 Flush ball/seal 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, periodically 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 Dometic toilet bowl cleaner . Fully
clean the top of the flush ball and under the seal where it
contacts the flush ball . After cleaning underside of seal, apply light downward pressure to top of
seal while brushing around full perimeter of seal .
3 . After cleaning, lightly press down around seal to assure it will properly seal against flush ball .
4 . If this does not correct a leaking seal, it may require replacement .
