-Typical Villagio
NOTE: Ensure that all drain valves are
CLOSED before pumping RV antifreeze
into the water system.
(Refer to the Water System Drain Valve Locations" chart at the end of
this section for valve locations on your model.)
Fill Lines
1. Tum the Water Pump switch ON.
2. Open each hot and cold water faucet handle/ knob in the coach
-
one at a time each in tum
until antifreeze solution just begins to flow from the faucet, then close. Do not forget exterior
shower/wash station knobs (if equipped).
3. Press the toilet flush pedal and hold until antifreeze begins flowing into the toilet. Leave small
amount of antifreeze that remains in the bowl.
When Done Adding RV Antifreeze
4. Tum Water Pump switch OFF.
5. Tum the Winterization valve so it points toward the waterline connected to the water pump.
This will stop the flow from the antifreeze siphon tube and revert the tank line flow to the water
pump.
6. Replace the protective cap onto the end of the antifreeze siphon tube to keep out insects or
debris when not in use.
Drain Water Heater
1. Tum off the Water Heater power switch before draining the water heater tank to avoid
damage to the heating element.
2. Drain the water heater by removing the plug from the base of the water heater tank,
accessible from the outside of the coach (requires socket and ratchet).

(Remove with socket)
3. Open the Pressure-Temperature Relief valve at the top right portion of the tank to prevent air
locking in the tank while draining.
Pressure-Temperature Relief Valve (Lift handle only when
water heater is cold).
4. Reinstall the water heater drain plug and close the P-T Relief valve when drained.

Drainage System P-Traps.
5. Pour about one cup of RV antifreeze down each drain for the galley sink, lavatory sink, and
shower/tub. This fills the drain trap pipes to prevent holding tank odors from entering the coach
during storage.
Dump and Clean Holding Tanks
1. Completely drain the sewage and waste water holding tanks at an approved waste disposal
site. Drain the sewage tank first so the following waste water can rinse any waste solids from
the dump outlet and sewer hose.
2. Close dump valves and refit the dust cap onto the drain outlet.
This will inhibit rust formation
on valve shafts and prevent entry and contamination by airborne debris, insects, and rodents.
Your drainage and fresh water systems are now winterized.
