Before using the water for drinking, run a few
gallons of water through the filter and discard
water to avoid consuming carbon dust or
particles that may have been present in the
new filter cartridge.
Diverter Plug
•
Install the diverter plug into the filter socket
for winterization or if water must be used
while the filter is removed from the socket.
Plug is installed in the same manner as the
filter.
•
See “Winterization Procedure” at the end of
this section for futher information.
NOTE: When removing the coach from storage,
always disinfect and flush the water
system thoroughly before installing a
new filter. After the system has been
thoroughly flushed, remove the diverter
plug and store for future use.
SHOWER HOSE VACUUM
BREAKER
After using the shower, you may notice water
dripping from the shower faucet assembly. The
dripping results when vacuum in the shower hose
(after closing the shower faucet) slowly releases
and allows water remaining in the hose to drain
down. This is a normal function of the shower
valve assembly and is not a leak or defect.
If items are placed into the shower tub before
shower valve vacuum release is complete, they
may become wet.
EXTERIOR SHOWER/WASH
STATION
–If Equipped
The exterior wash station feature allows you
to do things such as rinse off sand or salt after a
swim, rinse off muddy boots, or bathe your pet
outside the coach. Some models may have a
water pump switch located near the shower
faucet for convenience.
