7.5 PREVENTING FROST DAMAGE
• The bilge pump system is fitted with a water lock on the hose. Detach the
hose and fully drain the water from the water lock and run the pumps dry.
Otherwise the pumps may freeze and break.
• Unscrew the frost plug on the underside of the shower fittings. If there is no
frost plug, unscrew the shower hose.
• Drain the water tank and all other components containing water in order to
avoid frost damage.
• Run the freshwater pump dry to drain out all the water.
• Make sure that no water remains in the boat under any circumstances.
Leave the hatches in the cabin partially open.
