You will find two 3-way electric water pump
switches in your RV: one in the universal
docking station and one on the monitor panel.
Once activated, the water pump (also known
as the demand pump) will self-prime, and
provide water. The water pump continues to
run until its maximum pressure is achieved,
and then shut off. The water pump will
automatically re-start when it senses a drop in
the water pressure. Some cycling may occur,
depending on the volume of water being
released.
The water pump switches should be in the
OFF position if the RV is left unattended for
any amount of time (storage or camping). If
the unexpected should occur, this could help
limit potential water damage to a smaller area.
Dry camping
When you want to use water in your RV and
are not hooked up to city water, you will need
sufficient 12-volt DC power to run the water
pump.
Maintenance
Figure 8 Flojet water pump strainer
Periodically check the in-line water pump
strainer for accumulated debris. To clean,
shut off the water pump, unscrew the cap,
remove the re-useable metal strainer and
clear any debris, then reinstall.

STOP!
Read the safety and operating
information provided in the vendor manual
before attempting to activate the water heater.
Make sure the water heater is filled with water
before use; even momentary operation of the
water heater without water in it may result in
damage to the tank and/or controls. Always
open both the hot and cold water faucets
when filling the fresh water tank to allow air
pockets to be forced out of the water heater.
The DSI water heater is designed to heat
water quickly and efficiently. The water heater
manufacturer has preset the sensing limit to
maintain the water temperature when the
water heater is activated. The thermostat on
your Suburban water heater is not adjustable.
It is a temperature sensing limit designed to
maintain a water temperature of 130°F
(54°C).
Do not replace any component part with an
accessory part that is not authorized by the
water heater manufacturer, such as an
“add-on” electric heating element. Such
items are not approved to be installed and
could create an unsafe condition and will
void all warranties.
If you smell propane gas then
STOP!
Never operate the heater if you smell gas.
DO not assume that the smell of gas in
your RV is normal. Any time you detect the
odor of gas, it is to be considered life
threatening and corrected immediately.
Extinguish any open flames, including
cigarettes, and evacuate all persons from
the vehicle. Shut off the propane supply at
the propane cylinders.
