Note:  The  fuel  fill  cap  has  a  built  in  tank  ventilation  feature.  If
you should need to replace the cap, see your Chaparral dealer
for the exact cap to ensure proper fuel system operation.

Fuel Recommendations

The quality of the fuel is very important for satisfactory engine per-
formance  and  long  engine  life.  Fuel  should  be  clean  and  free  of
contamination. Your fuel tanks should be kept full of fuel whenever
possible.  This  will  reduce  the  amount  of  water  condensation  and
reduce the possibility of contamination.

FRESH WATER SYSTEM

Some  models  have  a  non-pressurized  water  system  as  standard
equipment  and  a  pressurized  system  as  optional.  The  fresh  water
system provides water from an onboard storage tank.

On some models, the fresh water tank is filled through the fill plate
on the side of the deck. The vent allows air to enter and escape as
water levels change. Fill the tank only with potable water. Using and
refilling the tank frequently keeps drinking water fresh and clean.

Transom Shower

Nothing is more luxurious than being able to rinse yourself off with
fresh water after swimming or water skiing in salt water. An optional
transom  shower  is  located  at  the  transom  and  through  the  use  of
pressurized water. Most showers have a push button shower head.
Pressure water switch is located at helm.

Sanitizing the Fresh Water System

Sanitize  the  fresh  water  system  before  you  use  it  the  first  time,
when you recommission your boat after winter storage, or when the
system has not been in use for an extended period of time.

Note: Fresh water tank must be empty before beginning sani-
tizing process. Empty tank if necessary.

TO SANITIZE THE TANK:

1. Pour  10  ounces  of  household  bleach  for  every  10  gallons  of

capacity into the water tank.

2. Fill the water tank with fresh clean water.

3. Manually pump water throughout system.

4. When a steady stream of water is coming from the faucet, all air

is out of the system. Turn switch OFF after closing faucets.

5. Allow treated water solution to remain in tank for 3 to 4 hours.

6. Turn on water pump switch and pump all treated water solution

from tank and lines through all faucets.

7. Refill tank with fresh water and turn on pump to thoroughly flush

entire system with fresh water after each sanitizing.

Note: If fresh water tastes like chlorine after sanitizing, pour a
solution of 1 quart vinegar and 5 gallons of fresh water into the
tank and allow solution to stand in tank for several days. Then
