10.1
Water supply, general
The vehicle is equipped with a water canister or a built-in water tank. An elec-
tric 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.
A canister or a waste water tank collects the waste water.
X
Fill water canister or water tank from supply systems that have been ver-
ified to provide drinking water quality.
X
Only use such hoses or containers when filling that have been approved
for use with drinking water.
X
Thoroughly rinse filling hose or container with drinking water before use
(2 to 3 times capacity).
X
Empty filling hose or container completely after use and close openings
of the filling hose or container.
X
Water left standing in the water canister, in the water tank or in the water
pipes becomes undrinkable after a short period. Therefore, before each
use of the vehicle, thoroughly clean the water pipes and the water can-
ister or the water tank. After each use of the vehicle completely empty
the water canister or the water tank and the water pipes.
X
In the case of lay-ups lasting more than a week disinfect the water
system before using the vehicle.
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 there is one) 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 canister or the water tank is empty.
Z
Before using the water fittings: Connect the 240 V power supply and switch
on the 240 V automatic circuit breaker, or connect the caravans electrics to
the towing vehicle. Otherwise the water pump will not work. (This only
applies to caravans that are not equipped with a separate battery.)
Z
When the water canister or the water tank is re-filled, an air bubble may
form at the bottom of the pump. This air bubble will prevent water from
being drawn in. Shake the water pump up and down energetically in the
water.
