“ Termination Valve “ what is it ?

Winterizing, after seven years I read this placard ( stupid I know ), what is a “ Termination Valve “ in this context. I run some RV Antifreeze through the wand for winterization. Anyone, Thanks

The black tank valve needs to be 'open'. If it is 'closed' when using the 'tank flush valve' (shown) it could build up pressure or overfill your black tank causing a "nasty spill or spray". You want the water to clean/drain out the tank - not splash or overflow it.
