5.3 Topping up the fresh water tank
The filler port for the fresh water tank is located on the outside of the vehicle. Take great care not to
confuse this with the fuel filler port! Before topping up the fresh water tank, ensure that the “fresh water
tank drain valve” is closed. (See item 5.6 “Draining the fresh water tank”.)
Fresh water filler port (sample illustration)
The fresh water tank is equipped with a sensor so that the fill level can be read out on the control panel.
The fill level is shown as a percentage. (See item 7.13 “Control panel” in section “Electrical system”.)

Fuel is very harmful to health. Just a few drops of fuel can render the entire fresh water
