Flue Covers
The Refrigerator and Truma Ultrastore water
heater fitted to your vehicle are supplied with
flue covers that are designed to keep out water
and debris if the vehicle is to be stood unused
for any length of time.
The flue covers must be removed before the
appliances are used as the covers will stop
combustion air entering the appliance and
the flue gasses escaping if left in place.
Refrigerator Flue Covers
The type of refrigerator fitted to your vehicle
will determine the type of flue cover fitted.
There are two types of fastener; a 90˚ turn
button that is operated either with a coin or
screwdriver (fitted to Dometic appliances),
or simply a clip-off cover that has two tabs
that need to be released, again using a flat
screwdriver (fitted to Thetford appliances).
Replacing the cover is a reversal of the
above procedures.
Fresh Water Tank
Your vehicle has an on board fresh water tank
that allows you to carry fresh water with you on
your journey. This tank supplies all of the water
systems inside your vehicle. The volume of the
fresh water tank will vary depending on which
model you have chosen.
Water is pumped from the on board tank by a
self priming and cancelling automatic pump
throughout the vehicle.
The pump is fitted with an in-line filter to ensure
trouble free running. This must be cleaned
periodically to ensure that there is no
reduction in flow.
The pump automatically pressurises the water
system to a pre determined water pressure,
when a tap is opened water flows from it and
the pump switches on to maintain the
pre-determined pressure.
When the tap is switched off the pump will
continue running until the correct pressure in
the system is reached, it will then shut down.
The pump circuit is controlled by the isolation
switch on the control panel.
Always switch off the pump at the
control panel when leaving the vehicle.
