PLUMBING
Before connecting to your coach, use a potable water
source to purge any remaining air and stale water in the
hose. Then, connect the hose from the potable water
source to your coach or the hose from your coach to
the city water supply (if equipped with a hose reel). Turn
on the supply valve at the water source, and open each
of the faucets to remove any air pockets in the coach
plumbing lines. Once the water flows freely, close the
faucet(s).
Water Pump
The water pump is used to pressurize the fresh water
system when the unit is not connected to city water. The
city water supply is under pressure, so the water pump
is not necessary while you are connected to city water.
Once the city water fill valve is not in the manual fill
position, the water is supplied to the fresh water system
components, including the hot water heater and faucets.
Use a water hose manufactured and labeled for
potable water to ensure that the hose is drinking
water-safe and will not alter the taste of the water.
IMPORTANT
!
To disconnect from the city water supply, close the valve
from the water supply. Release the pressure by rotating
the fresh water valve to the tank fill position. Remove the
hose from the city water supply, and store it in the water
compartment. Once the pressure is relieved, rotate the
fresh water valved to the appropriate operating position.
Auto Fill via KIB L-Panel
This article provides a brief overview of the fresh water auto fill function. If a coach is equipped with the Auto Fill function, it
is used to automatically fill the fresh water tank and shut o
ff
the water supply to the fresh water tank. The system will turn on
the Auto Fill valve when necessary and turn it o
ff
when the tank reaches capacity.
Auto Fill Valve and Pressurized
Water Supply
On coaches equipped with an Auto Fill valve, it is usually
located in the water compartment and may be hidden
by the hose reel and is operated by the Tank Monitoring
System. The valve is a 12 volt-operated solenoid valve
that allows water to pass through from the inlet to the
outlet when energized.
For the Auto Fill feature to work properly, the coach must
meet the following requirements:
1. The coach must be connected to a pressurized
water supply. Pressurized water can be sourced
by any potable supply, including a municipal water
supply or a private well. This is normally a garden
hose connection from the RV park, house, or exterior
hydrant. The pressurized water supply should be
regulated at 60 PSI or less.
2. The Auto Fill feature must be enabled within the tank
monitoring system.
3. The Fresh Water Tank fill valve must be in the position
noted for Auto Fill.

AUTO FILL VIA KIB L-PANEL
The Auto Fill function will energize or de-energize the
Auto Fill circuit and will automatically refill the fresh water
tank if the coach is connected to a pressurized potable
water source. It will activate to fill the tank when it reaches
50 percent and will shut o
ff
when the tank reaches 95
percent or two minutes after reaching 90 percent capacity
to avoid overfilling. If it has not reached 95 percent
capacity within 15 minutes, the system will shut o
ff
the
Auto Fill water valve.
