Your 240 Outrage is fitted with a 20
Gal. (76L) freshwater tank. The
freshwater system includes: Pump,
plumbing, holding tank and connec-
tions for water service to the tran-
som shower.
FRESHWATER PUMP:
The freshwater pump will need to be activated to
provide pressure to the system. The freshwater pump
is operated by pressing the switch marked FRESH-
WATER PUMP on the instrument panel. This draws
water from the holding tank and provides pressure
to the aft shower and the console cabin faucet. You
can reach the freshwater pump through a removable
access hatch located on the lower aft wall of the con-
sole interior.

FRESHWATER SHOWER:
The freshwater shower is located on the starboard
end of the cockpit transom wall and has an enclo-
sure that the shower head and hose fit in. The shower
hose extends about 6 ft. (1.82m). Once ther system
has been pressurized there is a button on the back of
the shower head that needs to be pressed for fresh-
water shower operation.
MAINTENANCE:
Very little maintenance is required for the freshwa-
ter system, other than annual disinfecting and win-
terizing. Periodically check the entire system to as-
sure that the hose connections, tube fittings, electri-
cal connections and mounting bolts are properly se-
cured, and free of chafing
DISINFECTING THE SYSTEM:
Before you fill the freshwater system it is vital that it
be properly disinfected. The following procedure is
recommended to disinfect the freshwater system:
Flush the entire system thoroughly by allowing
potable water to flow through it.
Drain the system completely.
Fill the entire system with an approved disinfect-
ing solution (check with your dealer for recom-
mendations).
After disinfecting, drain the entire system.
Flush the entire system thoroughly several more
times with potable water.
Now the system is ready for use, fill with pot-
able water.
Ask your dealer if this has been done and what pro-
cedures are needed to accomplish this.
