Troubleshooting Fan not working. If using 12 volt battery, check for voltage. Check the fuse. When the fan is running, make sure the fan is blowing outward. If the fan is still not working, contact Kimberley or your distributor for a replacement. Compost seems too wet. If too wet due to prolonged diarrhea, add a small amount of coir brick or sphagnum peat moss. If wet due to excessive condensation, also add a little sphagnum peat moss. Make sure excessive wetness is not due to someone urinating directly into the compost section. This can also contribute to an unpleasant odor. The compost area should have only a musty smell. If a sewage odor is present, please contact Kimberley for consultation. Compost seems too dry. If the compost is dry or hard, add some water and turn the agitator after the sphagnum peat moss has absorbed the moisture. Cold Conditions. Composting works from 13 degrees C and warmer. The warmer it is, the faster it composts. When the temperature drops to freezing, the compost will be dormant until heat is introduced to the area. Turn the heater on to raise the temperature in the toilet. Fruit flies or gnats. If your toilet incurs fruit flies or gnats, add five cups of natural Diatomaceous Earth to the compost. This can be purchased at Bunnings. Agitator handle turns with difficulty. If the compost gets dry, the handle may not turn easily. Adding used coffee grounds results in added moisture and keeps the compost loose so that it mixes better.
