How a separation toilet works
The separator insert guides urine into the front canister, while solids and toilet paper go into the rear container lined with a bag. Separating the two and letting the solids dry out prevents unpleasant odours - so the toilet needs no flushing water and no chemicals. After each number two, cover the solids with one or two handfuls of litter. Litter supports drying and binds odours.

Where the Trelino Evo M fits
The manufacturer recommends size M for van, camper, gazebo and boat. The toilet can be used free-standing or permanently installed - mounting may require drilling into the body. Always make sure it stands firmly and cannot tip over. The Evo series is water-resistant, so it also works in a bathroom with a shower.
Before you order

Use and emptying

Cleaning and care
- For cleaning, the manufacturer recommends vinegar diluted with water (1 part vinegar to 7 parts water) or pH-neutral cleaners with effective microorganisms, such as Holy Shine.
