WATER HEATER
The RV is equipped with a propane-operated water heater which supplies
heated water to the faucets and showers. The water heater refills
automatically drawing the cold water available from the freshwater tank or
city water connection.
Press the water heater switch
①
into the ON position. The red LED
②
illuminates for approximately 15 seconds and goes out at the same time
that the propane burner can be heard igniting. The water reaches a
temperature of approximately 50 to 60 degrees Celsius (120 to 140
degrees Fahrenheit) and requires a heating time of approx. 20 to 30
minutes. The water heater will automatically reignite as required to
maintain the water temperature as long as the switch
①
is in the ON position.
CAUTION:
It is important that the water heater is turned off while refueling or driving!
Troubleshooting: Water Heater
Problem
Cause/Solution
The water heater LED does not
illuminate when the water
heater is switched on.
-
Water is already hot.
-
12V plug-in fuse for the water heater has blown.
-
Reset needed at the water heater itself
The water heater does not
work at all.
-
Not enough propane.
-
Not enough power because the level of the coach battery is too low.
SHOWER
The showers have a sliding button on the shower head (picture on the right) to control the water
flow. The water flow can be stopped while taking a shower to save water and space in the grey
water tank.
Troubleshooting: Shower
Problem
Cause/Solution
The water in the shower
does not drain away.
-
The grey water tank is full. Please empty it as soon as possible.
-
The shower drain is clogged up. Please remove any residue blocking the drain.
OUTSIDE SHOWER
Only biodegradable shower gels and shampoos are permitted for outside shower use. These products are
available at outdoor and camping stores. Please consider the environment and follow these rules.
TOILET
CHEMICALS
To ensure that the toilet can be used without the risk of clogging, it is necessary to add special chemicals to the
black water tank. These chemicals deodorize and decompose at the same time. They are available in liquid,
powder and tablet form and should be added every time the black water tank has been. After you have added
the chemicals to the black water tank pour two buckets of water into the toilet or flush at least four times to
help the chemicals dissolve and work.
CAUTION:
Only use biodegradable or 1-layered toilet paper. Do NOT dispose of diapers, hygiene articles, Q-
tips, etc. in the toilet UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES! Avoiding this prevents clogging, repairs and
time loss that would be at the renter’s expense.
