INTRODUCTION
The Thetford cassette toilet is a high quality product. The functional
design combines modern styling and ease of use and the toilet forms
an integrated part of your caravan or camper bathroom. The Cassette
toilet is manufactured from high quality synthetic material. This makes
it a durable, user & maintenance friendly toilet.
The toilet is made up of two parts: a permanently fixed part and a
waste tank that is accessible from the outside. The removable waste
tank is located under the toilet bowl and can be removed via a door on
the outside of the caravan or camper.
The Thetford Cassette toilet is the solution to the sanitary problem in
your caravan or camper!
PREPARING FOR USE
C-402C, C-402X AND C-403L
1. Open the access door on the outside of your caravan or camper.
C-402C AND C-402X
2. Rotate the waste tank emptying spout 90 degrees and remove the
water filling extension (you will find it positioned beneath the
handle closest to the the emptying spout).
3. Rotate the waterfill funnel outwards, remove the cap and place the
extension on the waterfill funnel. Add the stated amount of
Thetford fresh water additive to the water tank. This ensures a bet-
ter and cleaner flush and keeps the water in the flush tank fresh.
4. Fill the water tank with clean water. Warning: keep water level
below the top of the water filling funnel.
5. Remove the extension and return to its original position on the
waste tank.
Note: depending on the space between the door and waste tank,
this extension part may also be fixed on the door with a hook.
Screw the cap back onto the water filling funnel and push back
inwards towards the side of the flush water tank.
Note: 150 ml of water will remain in the waterfill funnel when the
water tank is empty.

6. Remove the waste tank by pulling the safety catch upwards.
7. Pull the waste tank outward to the stop. Tip it slightly and take the
tank fully out.
8. Place the tank upright and turn the emptying spout upwards.
9. Remove the cap, with the measuring cup inside, from the
emptying spout and pour the stated quantity of toilet fluid into the
waste tank. This avoids unpleasant smells in the waste tank and
keeps the inside of the waste tank clean. Next add approximately
2 litres of water - enough to ensure that the bottom of the waste
tank is covered. Screw the cap back onto the emptying spout. Turn
the emptying spout back to its original position.
N.B.: The emptying spout measuring cap is supplied in the same
packaging as this manual.
Warning! Never add toilet fluid via the valve blade or via the toilet
bowl.
10. Slide the waste tank back into its original position via the access
door.
Note ! Never use force if you cannot get the tank back into place
easily. This may cause serious damage.
11. Make sure that the waste tank is secured with the safety catch.
Shut the access door and lock it.
USE C-402C, C-402X AND C-403L
12. Run water into the bowl by pressing the flush knob briefly or open
the valve blade by turning the handle anti-clockwise. Your Thetford
toilet is now ready for use.
13. After use, open the valve blade (if still closed) by turning the
handle anti-clockwise. Flush the toilet by pressing the flush knob
for several seconds. Close the valve blade after use.
Note! Do not leave water in the bowl if the toilet is not being used.
This does not help to reduce unpleasant smells and only leads to
flooding.
Important Warning Notice! Please do not travel with a flush water
tank that is too full (we advise empty, but for sure not filled more
than half-full). Do not travel with water in the toilet bowl. Failure to
adhere to this notice may result in water damage to your caravan
or motor home.
EMPTYING
The waste tank has a capacity of 19 litres and must be emptied at the
latest when the red light in the level display lights up. The indicator
lamp will light up when the waste tank can still take about 2 litres,
which is about 3 uses. It is advisable to empty the waste tank earlier.
Note ! Do not allow the waste tank to become too full.
C-402C, C-402X AND C-403L
14. Make sure that the valve blade is closed. Open the access door
located outside the vehicle. Pull the safety catch upwards and
remove the waste tank.
15. Remove the water filling extension first to avoid it will getting lost
during emptying of the waste tank.
16. Stand the waste tank upright (Pull-out handle at the top, wheels at
the bottom). Press the handle down and move it away from the
waste tank until it snaps out of its locked position.
