4. On the 12 Volt DC Power Main Breaker Panel,
switch the DC Main circuit breaker "ON", then
switch the Pressure Water Pump circuit breaker
"ON". This activates the boat’s pressure water
pump, which pressurizes the water system. The
pump is located in the aft, center portion of the
engine room between the propulsion engines.
5. The system is primed when all air is purged from
the system's pipes. Monitor each faucet and shower
head. When a steady steam of water flows from the
COLD side of a faucet or shower head, turn the
valve for that faucet or shower head to the HOT
side. When a steady stream of water flows from the
HOT side of a faucet or shower head, turn that
faucet or shower head off. When you have done this
for each faucet and shower head, the water system
is primed.
When water pressure within the system increases to a
predetermined point, the pressure water pump auto-
matically shuts off. Priming the system also fills and
maintains the water level within the water heater.
The fresh water system is designed to operate in the
same manner as the water system in your home. After
filling, pressurizing and priming the fresh water sys-
tem, simply turn on a faucet to receive fresh water. As
you draw water from the system, the pressure in the
system decreases. When the pressure decreases to a
predetermined point, the pressure water pump auto-
matically turns on and increases the pressure. This
ensures a steady flow of water any time you turn on a
faucet.
Sometimes a recently filled system or one that has not
been used for some time may need re-priming. This is
normal and is caused by an accumulation of air bubbles
at the pressure water pump. To re-prime the fresh
water system, repeat steps 2 and 5 in "Pressurizing
and Priming the Water System" .

If your boat will be left unat-
tended for at least a few days,
switch "OFF" the Pressure Water
Pump circuit breaker on the 12
Volt DC Power Main Breaker
Panel. If this breaker is left on,
pressure within the fresh water
system may fall and cause the
water pressure pump to engage.
If this happens frequently, it
could discharge your batteries.
