Programing the SeeLevel voltage:

Greetings!
I know it's still cold outside but Spring is just around
the corner along with the upswing of customers getting
their units out for the season. This will be the
beginning of the busy season for most of you.
I will show you how to calibrate the battery voltage on
the Seelevel, identify the Dometic Macerator toilet
components and the HDMI wall outlets.

We've also recently completed our metal training for
the Travel Trailers and I would like to thank the dealers
for sending your techs to our class. I know it's hard to
be short handed for the week while they are here in
training so your participation is appreciated. We had a
As always, if I can be of any assistance to you please

If the voltage of the Seelevel panel does not match the battery
voltage you can calibrate the Seelevel panel. Please note that
there is a voltage drop from the batteries to the panel. This drop
can be around .1 volts.

If the panel needs calibrated you will need to remove the
panel by taking out the four screws in each corner with a
Phillips screw driver.

Once you have the panel removed disconnect the white wire connector on the back of the panel.

While holding in on the battery button reconnect the white wire connector. This will recalibrate the 12 volt battery
reading.

After you have recalibrated the panel
reinstall the panel in the wall with the same
screws.

Dometic 8700 Series MasterFush Toilet:
We are using the Dometic macerator toilet in the 33 Classic and the 30 Bunk Flying Cloud trailers.

tank sensor

relay

vacuum breaker

Adding water to the bowl:
Press the "add water" switch (1) until desired water level is achieved.
Water flow will shut off automatically if switch is pressed too long to
avoid overflow.
Flushing toilet:
Pressing the flush button (2) will flush the toilet but add no water. (dry
flush) Press the "flush" switch (3) then release it. This activates the
macerator and siphons water and waste from the bowl, macerates
and then pumps the waste to the holding tank.

Power on indicator:
The steady green "power on" light indicates when electrical power to
the toilet is activated. A momentary flashing green light indicates when
flush mode is changing.

Full tank indicator:
The "Full Tank" light will turn red when the holding tank is full. This function only works if connected to the optional
Dometic tank monitoring system. When the red light is illuminated, electric power to the toilet automatically shuts
off to prevent overfilling the holding tank.

The following is the wiring diagram for the Dometic macerator toilet. We do not use all of the options.

Location of the Dometic tank sensor:
The tank sensor is mounted in the top of the main holding tank. The sensor is inserted into an adapter (601676) and plug
(602357) and then screwed into the tank. The sensor is accessible from above the floor line.

Pass through outlets:
All 2018 units that have inverters now use the pass through feature of the inverter. This will eliminate the additional
outlets by the TV's. this will also eliminate the extra 110 volts A/C wiring for the second set of outlets (less weight).

HDMI wall outlets:

In 2018 we added HDMI wall plugs to the
bedroom TV's with Articulating TV
brackets.

Factory Training:
I would like to thank all of the Dealers and techs that participated in our January Metal training classes. We had 16 techs from
10 dealers here for training. There was a lot of hands on training we changed two side sheets, six segments a rib and a lower
window bow. It was a great time meeting all of you.

Upcoming training events
Our next technical training class is scheduled for October and we are starting to sign up dealers for this class. Please contact
Jim Parrett 937-596-6111 ext. 7409 or myself at 937-596-7957 to be added to the class.
