11.1 Water supply, general
The vehicle is equipped with a fitted water tank. An electric water pump pumps
the water to the individual water taps. Opening a water tap automatically
switches on the water pump and pumps water to the tap.
The waste water tank collects the waste water. The water level in the water
and waste water tanks can be checked on the panel.
11.2 Water tank
Volume Depending on the model the water tank holds approx. 80 l or approx. 100 l.
Fresh water filler neck The fresh water filler neck is located on the right-hand side of the vehicle.
The fresh water filler neck is identified by the symbol ( )" or the word
"WASSER" ("WATER").
The cap is opened or closed using the key for the external flap locks (see
Chapter 7).
Filling with water:
„
Unscrew the cap (Fig. 94,2) on the water tank.
„
Press the stopper (Fig. 94,1) in the drainage opening and turn the lever.
„
Open the fresh water filler neck.
X
Fill the water tank with fresh water only.
X
Water left standing in the water tank or in the water pipes becomes
undrinkable after a short period. For this reason, rinse the water pipes
and the water tank thoroughly with several litres of fresh water before
each use of the vehicle. To do this, open all water taps. After each use
of the vehicle completely empty the water tank and the water pipes.
Z
If the vehicle is not used for several days or if it is not heated when there is
a risk of frost, empty the entire water system. Leave the water taps on in
central position. Leave the safety/drainage valve (if available) and all drain
cocks open. Frost damage to appliances, frost damage to the vehicle and
deposits in water-carrying components can be avoided in this way.
Z
The water pump will overheat without water and can get damaged. Never
operate water pump when the water tank is empty.
Z
Before using the water fittings, the 12 V power supply on the panel must be
switched on. Otherwise the water pump will not work.
Z
The water supply system conforms to the latest state of technology 03/
2009 (Directive 2002/72/EC).
