Flush only organic human waste and toilet

garden hose on the end of the nozzle, make sure that the
inner diameter of the hose is 3/4 in. (1.9 cm) or greater.
The pump is suitable for indoor and outdoor use.
NOTICE
Inspect pump connection to the RV annually. Make sure
there are no cracks in the rubber coupling and the mount-
ing hardware is secure. Replace when necessary.
Thermal Cut-Off Switch
Because SANICON® Turbo pumps are designed for intermittent
duty, the pump contains a thermal cut-off switch for your safety.
Typical run time is 15-20 minutes of operation before the thermal
shut-off switch turns the pump off. After 20 minutes, the thermal
cut-off switch will reset and allow the pump to run again.
■ If the pump is run immediately after a thermal reset, it will run
for approximately five - eight minutes.
■ If allowed to cool for several hours it will run the full 20 min-
utes..
