– Fresh Water, Showers and Hot Water.
Fresh Water
Olivetta has a 500 litre freshwater capacity for domestic services. There is a 200 litre
forward tank and a 300 litre aft tank.
The pressure pump and changeover valves are under
the saloon seat on the starboard side of the saloon.
Don't have more than one tank open at the same time.
Use the aft tank first and then change over to the other
tank when required. Change to the forward water tank
by closing the aft water tank valve and opening the
forward tank valve. Change to the forward tank only
when required.
Should the tanks become completely empty the pump
must be switched off to prevent damage to the pump.
An empty tank must be isolated to stop air entering the system.
You will need to purge the air from the system by opening the taps if this occurs.
Make sure the pump turns off when taps are off.
Turn the
WATER PUMP
switch off at the electrical control panel.
Deck filler caps for each tank are located on the deck.

shower on the stern.
Before using the internal shower ensure the

at the switchboard.
