The RV toilet in your Airstream is a design that has been used for many years. There
are two pedals. The large pedal opens and closes the slide mechanism, and the
smaller pedal opens and closes a water valve.
In normal use, when you are hooked up to city water, both pedals are depressed
together. This dumps the sewage and fresh water and flushes down the side of
the bowl. Water will continue to run into the bowl for a short time after the pedals
are released.
When you wish to conserve water hold the hand-spray head over the bowl and hold
down the thumb-operated lever. Now when you depress the pedal all the water is
routed through the hand-spray.
CAUTION: When you dump the bowl of the toilet make sure all paper and solids
have cleared the slide mechanism before you allow it to close. Failure to do so
can cause the groove for the slide to become jammed and the slide will no longer
close completely.
If the problem should occur a small nail or bent clothes hanger can be used to “pick”
the material out of the groove.
