Can't speak to details on a 2005 however ours has a crank for the slideout which is accessed through a hatch on the back of the camper. There is no strap or lock for it.
We shut our fridge down once parked. Does your fridge switch sources automatically? If so, probably best to shut it down as you could drain your batteries if the AC were to fail. You want to shut off the propane as a safety measure. The fridge should have a fairly long life. Be sure to open the exterior back panel and keep that are dirt and bug free.
Only the toilet goes in the black tank. You may have some tp or something else fouling the sensors if you continue to get a reading after draining. Ours came a equipped with an internal rinse system which works great. Be sure you keep the valves closed as the tanks share the same drain line.
