5.7 Testing
Open the ball valve in the water supply pipe completely so that
there will be a sufficient supply of water for flushing. Press the
button once and check whether the cycle is carried out proper-
ly. Throw a few pieces of toilet paper into the pot and check the
cycle again.
Check that there are no leaks at any of the connections.
6 Use
- Make sure that the ball valve in the water supply pipe is open.
- A short or long flush can be used.
- Short flush (0.5 litres): press the button once.
- Long flush (1.5 litres): press the button twice.
- After using the toilet shut off the ball valve.
If the toilet has not been used for some time it is advisable to
rinse it with clean water a few times before using it.
The following precautions must be taken during periods of frost
(winter) :
- Shut off the water supply to the toilet.
- Carry out a cycle without water.
- Pour about 2 litres anti-freeze into the toilet pot.
- Drain the pipes.
Anti-freeze is poisonous and must never be drained into the
external water.

7 Maintenance
Traditional toilet cleaners can be used to clean the toilet and to
remove scale.
In order to prevent scale deposits from building up in the pump
these must be removed regularly as follows:
- Shut off the water supply by closing the ball valve.
- Carry out a cycle without water.
- Pour about 1 litre of vinegar or scale remover into the toilet
pot and let it soak for some hours.
- Open the ball valve again and carry out several cycles in
order to flush the toilet pot thoroughly and remove all the
water used from the pump.
How often the scale needs to be removed depends on the hard-
ness of the water, but it should be done at least twice a year.
Do not use products based on sodium (unblocking products) or
solvents.
If seawater is used for flushing the toilet should be rinsed
through with fresh water every so often to prevent salt deposits
from building up.
