1.
Set the bypass valves to the NORMAL position (supply line valves ON).
2.
Remove the city water connection inlet cap and attach one end of the short hose sup-
plied with the motor home to the city water connection inlet, and the other end into a
container of fresh water.
3.
Place the utility center valves in the “COUNTRY FILL” position.
4.
Turn water pump ON. Water should begin to be drawn out of the container and into the
fresh water tank. To aid siphoning place the container on a flat surface approximately 2
feet off the ground. All low point drains must be off in order to create a siphon.
During the filling process, periodically check the fresh water tank level using the monitor
panel located in the command center. When the fresh water tank is full, it is normal to see
water running from the fresh water overflow tubes onto the ground.
To disconnect
Shut OFF the water pump. Disconnect the short water hose and reinstall the city water con-
nection inlet cap.
NOTE: The fresh water tank can also be directly filled using the tank fill
(located inside of the motor home). See
Fresh Water Holding Tank
in this
section.
Normal Setting:
Allows you to use the water system when dry camping. The water pump
circulates water from the fresh water tank to all the fixtures.
If needed, sanitize the water
system prior to travel.
1.
Set the bypass valves to the NORMAL position (supply line valves ON.
2.
Place the utility center valves in the “NORMAL” position.
3.
Turn the water pump ON (make sure you have sufficient 12-volt power).
4.
Water will be pumped from the fresh water tank to all faucets.
5.
Enter the motor home and open the cold water supply faucets to bleed air from the wa-
ter lines. When the water lines are nearly full, you may experience some “air pockets”.
Allow these to escape before closing the cold water supply faucets.
6.
Turn the appropriate (12-volt GAS or 120-volt ELECTRIC) storage water heater power
switch ON. Turn the water heater power switch. Water will be heated on demand.
Sanitize / Winterize Lines:
This setting is used for drawing RV antifreeze into the water
lines of the motor home. When the fresh water tank drain and the low point drains are
closed, a siphon is created in the water lines allowing antifreeze to be pulled into the water
lines. This setting will not allow antifreeze into the fresh water tank. See Sanitizing/winter-
izing the Plumbing System.
Sanitize Tank
: This setting is used to sanitize the fresh water tank. When the fresh water
tank drain and the low point drains are closed, a siphon is created in the water lines allowing
sanitizer to be pulled into the fresh water tank from an external container. See
Sanitizing/
winterizing the Plumbing System.
