Introduction
1.2 Environmental Tips
VBe considerate of the environment.
VRemember that: all kinds of waste water and household waste are not to be disposed
of in drains or in the open countryside.
VOnly empty the waste water tank and Thetford cassette at disposal stations, at camp-
ing sites or in disposal points which are especially provided for this purpose. When
stopping in towns and communities observe the instructions at caravan sites or ask
where there are disposal points.
VOn board, collect waste water only in the built-in waste water tank or – if necessary –
in other containers designed for that purpose.
VDrain waste water tank as often as possible, even when it is not completely full (hy-
giene).
If possible, flush out waste water tank and drainage pipe with fresh water every time it
is emptied.
VNever allow the Thetford cassette to become too full. Empty the Thetford cassette fre-
quently, at the latest as soon as the filling level display lights up.
VSeparate household waste according to glass, tin cans, plastic and wet waste also
when on a journey. Enquire at the town or community authority about disposal points.
Household waste is not to be disposed of in waste paper baskets which are situated at
car parks.
VEmpty waste bins as often as possible into the cans or containers provided for this
purpose. This helps to avoid unpleasant smells and an accumulation of rubbish on
board.
VWhen parked, do not allow the engine to run more than necessary. When running idle,
a cold engine releases more contaminants than usual. The running temperature of the
engine is achieved more quickly whilst the vehicle is in motion.
VUse an environmentally-friendly WC chemical agent for the WC which can also be bio-
logically degraded and only use small doses.
VWhen staying in towns and communities for longer periods, search for parking areas
which are especially for motorhomes. Enquire at the town or community authority
about parking spaces.
VAlways make certain that your parking place is clean when you leave, even if a mess
was left by someone else.
