Toilet
The RV toilet in your Nest is a design that has been used for
many years. One pedal is used to open and close the slide
mechanism, as well as, open the water valve.
In normal use, depressing the pedal
dumps the sewage and fresh water
flushes down the side of the bowl.
Water will continue to run into the
bowl for a short time after the pedal
is released.
When you wish to conserve water
hold the toilet hand-spray head over
the bowl and hold down the thumb-
operated lever. When depressing the
pedal, all the water is routed through the hand-spray.
Electrical
Battery/12-Volt System Information
The major portion of electrical power in your Nest is 12-Volt. The
12-Volt current powers all gas appliances for controls and/or
ignition as well as lighting.
All 12-Volt current comes through the battery system in the
front of your trailer. Two batteries are accessible in the nose
cone storage box on the A-frame of your trailer. Power from the
batteries goes to a set of four Type 2 thermal breakers located
under the front bed. The breakers are tied together by a brass
bus bar. One breaker (30amp) protects the 12-Volt tow vehicle
charge line coming from the 7-way cord. Another breaker
(20amp) feeds the trailer
brakes breakaway switch
located near the hitch
coupler. A 50amp breaker
feeds the battery disconnect
relay. The current leaves
the relay and travels to the
12-Volt distribution panel
located in the converter, and
then to the rest of the trailer.
A 12-Volt layout diagram is
shown in Section 8 — Maintenance.
Battery Disconnect Switch
The battery disconnect switch is used to separate the batteries
from the 12-Volt distribution panel and converter charging
system.
When the switch is turned to ON
and the trailer is plugged into an
external power source, the 12-Volt
distribution panel will receive power
from the converter and the batteries
will be charged through the converter
charging system.
When the switch is turned to OFF and the trailer is plugged
into an external power source, the 12-Volt distribution panel
will still receive power from the converter, but the batteries are
disconnected from the system. The batteries will not be drained
with the switch in the OFF position. The converter will not charge
the batteries with the switch in this position.
The charge in the 12-Volt batteries is replenished, when towing,
from the tow vehicle alternator through the 7-way cord. This
charge will flow to the batteries regardless of the battery
disconnect switch position.
Deodorizers
There are many deodorizers on the market in tablet,liquid and
powder form. These not only combat odor, but also stimulate the
bacteria that works to dissolve the solids in your tank.
Galley Faucet Cleaning and Care
All that is needed to clean your faucet
is a soft, damp cloth. Airstream does
not recommend the use of scour pads,
cleansers or chemicals. The abrasive nature
of these substances could damage the
faucet’s finish. A non- abrasive car wax will
help to protect the finish.
Wet Bath Shower Wand
The shower wand is designed to give
maximum flexibility in usage and provides
for water-saving techniques when using
your trailer on self-containment.
It can be held in the hand and moved
about the body. Normally, the best water
conservation procedure is to wet the
entire body and then turn the water off.
Apply soap, lather thoroughly and then
rinse.
NOTE
When you dump the contents of the toilet bowl
make sure all paper and solids have cleared the
slide mechanism before you allow it to close.
Failure to do so can cause the groove for the slide
to become jammed and the slide will no longer
close completely. Please see the toilet user manual
for warranty and user tips, and maintenance
information.
