The label shown below is attached on or near
the faucet to explain the operation of the vacuum
breaker assembly.
EXTERIOR SHOWER
The exterior auxiliary shower 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.
It is located in the water center compartment.
For your convenience, there is also a soap dis-
penser and paper towel dispenser.
WASTE WATER SYSTEM
(HOLDING TANKS)
The drainage system is self-contained and
uses two separate holding tanks to contain the
waste water until it can be dumped at an appro-
priate waste water disposal site. This means you
can use the toilet, sinks and shower even in areas
where utility hookups are not available.
The main holding tank contains the sewage
from the toilet, and is commonly called the
black
water
tank. The second holding tank contains the
waste water from the galley sink, bathroom lava-
tory and shower, and is commonly called the
grey
water
tank.
DUMPING HOLDING TANKS
1. Attach the drain hose and place end of sewer
hose into disposal opening.
2. Open the sewage (black tank) valve with a
quick pull. OPEN ONE VALVE AT A
TIME. Move hose gently about to dislodge
any waste and to ensure complete drainage.
NOTE: Do not open the grey tank valve until the
black tank is drained and dump valve
closed to avoid sewage back-up into grey
tank. Grey water also rinses any black
water solids from the drain hose.
If items are placed into the shower
tub before shower valve vacuum
release is complete, they may become
wet.
For your protection, this faucet is equipped
with a vacuum breaker (back flow preventer)
to prevent contamination of your potable wa-
ter supply. The water in the hand held shower
hose will drain through this vacuum breaker
when the faucet is turned off. This is not a
leak. This drainage is inherent in the design of
the vacuum breaker, and is evidence that it is
functioning properly.
