entire water heater with RV antifreeze when

HOWER
A handheld shower assembly with both hot
and cold water is available for washing or
rinsing with the outside shower.
1. Be sure the water heater is ON and had
sufficient time to heat the water.
2. Open the outside shower compartment
door.
3. If dry camping, be sure the 12-volt water
pump is ON.
4. Remove the handheld shower from its
holder.
5. Turn ON the hot and cold faucet knobs,
and adjust the water temperature as
desired.
6. To activate the handheld shower turn ON
the sprayer head attachment (some
models).
To cease operation, close the faucet knobs.
After the water has been allowed to drain from
the shower head, replace it in the outside
shower compartment. Any remaining water in
the shower hose will drip or run out; this is not
a leak but performs as intended.
F
AUCETS
The faucets operate much the same way as
the faucets in your home. Make sure there is
sufficient water available and, if dry camping,
the 12-volt water pump is turned ON before
operating. To open the faucets, turn the hot
and cold knobs ON and adjust the
temperature to your comfort level. Close the
faucets when a sufficient amount of water is
released.
The tub/shower faucet requires a vacuum
breaker when the shower hose and head are
used. There are two purposes for this
breaker:
□
To prevent siphoning water through the
hose from another fixture.
□
To prevent water from being contained in
the hose.
The showerhead DOES NOT have a
complete shut-off valve (the complete shut-off
is at the faucet). The showerhead may drip
slightly in the OFF position after use; this is
normal and does not indicate a leak or defect.
There may be air in the plumbing lines that
will need to be bled out before a steady
stream of water comes from the faucet.

Refer to the OEM operator’s manual.

HOWER
Your bathing facilities in the RV function
similar to those in your home. Keep the water
heater and holding tank capacities in mind
when using the fresh water system. Long
showers are not suggested due to the limited
amount of water available. The used water
will drain through the plumbing pipes into the
grey water holding tank.
1. Be sure the water heater is ON and had
sufficient time to heat the water.
2. If dry camping, be sure your 12-volt water
pump is ON.
3. Adjust the hot and cold faucets to the
desired temperature before bathing.
4. To conserve water while showering, wet
down and turn the water OFF while you
use soap, then rinse.
5.
When you are finished, shut the water
faucets OFF.
Water temperatures over 125°F (49°C)
can cause severe burns instantly or death
from scalds; therefore, be careful when
using hot water. Always test the water
temperature before showering or washing.
