Water Heater 

 
Your  motorhome is equipped  with a  6-gallon  water heater  located on the interior in the kitchen area, below the cook 
top. To turn the water heater on there is a switch in the monitor panel area above the side entrance door.  Please refer to 
the manufacturer’s instruction manual for lighting and maintenance instructions.  You must ensure there is water in the 
tank prior to turning the burner on to heat the water ( to check this pull the pressure release valve in the exterior vent 
area). LP gas is automatically supplied to the main burner to heat water to a desired temperature and then automatically 
shuts  off  (you  must  have  the  LP  tank  valve  on  for  this  to  take  place).  A  regulated  mixture  of  gas  and  air  is  ignited 
automatically providing a flame, which is directed into the heating tube.  The heating assembly is sealed off from the 
RV interior and is vented to the outside. 
 

Toilet 
 

Please refer to the manufacturer’s operating instructions. 
 
Toilet Trouble Shooting: 
1. Water keeps running in the bowl: 
- check to see if all the levers are turned all the way back.  Sticking may be caused by foreign material on the waste 
valve blade seal at the bottom of the bowl.  If the problem persists, you may need to replace the water valve. 
 
2. The Toilet leaks, there is water on the floor: 
-  if  the  leak  is  in  the  back  of  the  toilet,  check  the  water  supply  line  connection  and  refer  to  the  manufacturer’s 
installation instructions.  If the leak  is at the toilet flange area (where the toilet  mounts to the  floor), check the toilet 
flange nuts for tightness. 
 
3. Poor flush pressure: 
- the levers must be held fully open during the flush.  A good flush should be obtained within 2 to 3 seconds.  If the 
problem persists, remove the water supply line and check the water supply.  The water supply rate should be at least 10 
litres/2.5 gallons per minute to ensure an adequate flush. 
 
 

Shower  

 
To protect the surface of your ABS plastic shower pan, it is recommended that a rubber shower mat be placed in the 
shower pan.  Use a non-abrasive cleaner to clean your shower compartment.  

NOTE:

  Do not use highly concentrated 

or high acid content household cleaners, as these may damage the shower compartment.
