See the images in the fold-out cover for a visual reference.

• Close the cover and use both hands to rotate the bowl to the desired position (max. 90° clockwise and 170° counterclockwise) (06).

Opening the blade:

• Open the blade by moving the blade handle from left to right (07).
• Always close the blade completely after use.

Never use household cleaners to clean your toilet. These may cause permanent damage tothe seals and other toilet components. For example, the use of liquid bleach could lead to discoloration.

Thetford recommends maintaining your toilet regularly to prolong the lifespan of your talet.

• Use Thetford Cassette Tank Cleaner 2 to 3 times a year on the waste-holding tank to remove stubbom limescale on the inside of the tank.
• Use Thetford Seal Lubricant to keep the seals softand pliable. It has been specially developed for mobile toilets and is absolutely safe to use.

Never use Vaseline orvegetable oil to lubricate the seals. This may cause leakage to your waste-holding tank.
The blade seal is a part of the toilet thatis subject to wear. Depending on the extent and manner of servicing, after a certain period the seal will lose quality and must be replaced.
