PLUMBING SYSTEMS
If the clog is due to grease, pour ½ cup of salt
followed by ½ cup of baking soda followed by
2 cups of boiling water and let stand overnight
(note: add boiling water to a ceramic sink only
when there is already standing water present
in the basin).

point drains (in
closed position)
Position a plunger over the drain. If
necessary, fill the sink to cover the head of
the plunger. Rapidly move the plunger up and
down to dislodge clogging from the drain.
If this procedure does not remove the clog,
contact your dealer or a qualified plumber for
a service appointment. Avoid using chemical
drain openers that may contain corrosive
agents that can damage fixtures.

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.
Unlike your home, the RV does not contain a
water pressure balance valve. If someone is
using the shower, it is recommended that the
fresh water system NOT BE USED until he or
she is finished.
Maintenance
Use mild dish soap and water to clean the
fixtures. Do not use harsh chemicals or
sprays. A mild solution of vinegar and water
works well to remove hard water spots and
stains from the sink or shower fixtures.
Do not use cleaners that might scratch the
glass or damage to the metal finish of your
shower enclosure.

A handheld shower assembly with both hot
and cold water is available for washing or
rinsing outside the RV. It is located in the
universal docking center. Before operating, be
sure the water heater is ON and had sufficient
time to heat the water.
If dry camping, be sure the 12-volt water
pump is ON.

Ensure the hand held sprayer and hose
quick connections are securely fastened
□
Open the faucet knobs and adjust them to
the desired temperature.
□
Depress the sprayer handle to activate
To cease operation, close the faucet knobs
and disconnect the hand held sprayer and
hose. After the remaining water has been
allowed to drain from the hand held sprayer
and hose, replace it in the
universal docking station. Any
remaining water in the hose
or sprayer may drip or run
out; this is not a leak but
performs as intended. For
sanitary reasons, keep the
universal docking station
compartment door closed
when not in use.
