Exterior Features
Urethane Coated Rims
Airstream uses the same black Urethane spray-on
protective coating on the wheels that it uses on the
body kit� The coating is applied directly to the steel
rims� The coating has the same rust and abrasion
protection for the rims as it provides for the lower trim
panels�
Cleaning Instructions
The rims require no chemicals to clean them� Simply
use a mild soap, water, clean towel, and rinse� A nylon
bristle brush can be used to remove more stubborn
stains from the textured surface� After cleaning, rinse
thoroughly to remove all soap�
CAUTION
When using a power washer, maintain a proper
distance from the touring coach. The proper
distance is approximately 2.2 ft. when using a
round jet nozzle, and 1 ft. when using a 25 degree
flat spray jet nozzle. Never point the jet nozzle at
moldings, hoses, electrical components, seals,
plug connections, etc. Never use round jet nozzles
on tires, the pulsating water can damage the sub-
structure of tires.
Water Management Panel
The Water Management Panel located on the roadside
of the coach is multipurpose� It features a low lead
brass inlet valve with four selections:
1�
Tank Fill - select this setting to fill the fresh water
tank from a pressurized city water source�
2� Dry Camping (boondocking) - select this setting to
run fixtures from the fresh water holding tank.
3� City Fixtures (city water hookup) - select this
setting to run fixtures from a pressurized city
water source� This setting can also be used when
connecting compressed air for winterization; see
Winterizing and Storage on page 9-10 �
WARNING
Use the City Fixtures setting for compressed air
winterization. Do NOT exceed MAX 50 PSI when
using compressed air to clear the system of water
during winterization. The 100 PSI MAX label on the
water management panel only refers to the valve’s
maximum pressure.
4� Sanitize/Winterize - select this setting to use the
water pump to draw sanitization solution or RV
antifreeze from an unpressurized container into the
water system when sanitizing or winterizing; see
Sanitizing on page 9-7 and also see Winterizing
and Storage on page 9-10 � NOT for use with
compressed air� See 3 above�
City Water Hookup
Connect to a city water supply using a 1/2 inch
diameter tasteless, odorless, non-toxic, high-pressure
hose with a standard garden hose thread designed for
RV use� Turn on the city water supply and slowly open
a faucet. There will be sputtering at the fixture until all
the air is expelled, which may take some time� Once
you have a steady flow at one faucet, open others to
expel the remaining air�
Fresh Water Tank Fill
Fill the fresh water tank using the same hose used
above� A small vent next to the inlet allows air to expel
from the tank when filling.
It’s a good idea to let the water run through the hose
for a short time to flush it out. Some users will fill their
tank with water from home to avoid distasteful water
from another location� Keep in mind the more water
carried in the fresh water tank, the less cargo carrying
capacity you have for other items�
CAUTION
Only use a tasteless, odorless, non-toxic hose
designed to prevent bacteria growth to fill the fresh
water tank
