Troubleshooting: Wastewater Tanks
Problem
Cause/Solution
The RV is hooked up to the city water
connection and water comes out of the toilet
and/or the ventilation pipe on the roof.
You accidentally connected the water hose to the sewer flush.
Turn off the water and connect the hose to the "City Water"
hook-up.
The wastewater tanks are indicated to be full
although they have just been emptied.
-
Paper, grease or food can get stuck on the sensors inside the
tank causing false readings.
-
There is no clog if water can be heard running off through
the sewer hose.
HEATING
The camper is equipped with a furnace which is operated by 12V and fueled by propane. Ensure that a
propane bottle is open, and the batteries are charged or the camper is hooked up to a 110V power grid. The
furnace is controlled using the thermostat (see below).
THERMOSTAT
To start the furnace, put the main switch
①
into the ON position
⑤
, then set the temperature
control
②
to the highest
④
level to start. The burner ignites within 30 seconds. Adjust the
temperature control
②
to the desired level after the fan starts blowing warm air. The main
switch
①
can be stiff and may require a little extra force to switch on or off. To turn the
furnace off, set the temperature control to the lowest
③
level and put the main switch into
the OFF position
⑥
(to the right until it clicks in place). The fan remains on for about a minute
after turning off the furnace.
Troubleshooting: Heater
Problem
Cause/Solution
The heater blows only cold air.
-
The set temperature has already been reached
-
Main valve of propane bottle is closed
-
Propane bottle is empty
(Test fridge and stove for a problem with propane supply.)
The heater fan does not start.
-
Empty coach batteries.
-
Loose wire/contact in thermostat. Please call our OnRoad-Service.
Furnace fan comes on and
shuts off after 20-30 seconds
Sail switch needs to be cleaned, please call our OnRoad-Service at 1-866-
535-6601 for further instruction.
CAUTION:
-
NEVER leave the vehicle unattended while draining the wastewater tank.
-
Do not leave the drain valves open while the RV is connected to a permanent sewer drain at the
site because this may lead to crusting and clogging in the black water tank. The renter is liable
for any damage resulting from improper use of the system.
-
The wastewater tanks can only be emptied at designated disposal stations. These DUMPING,
SANI or DISPOSAL stations can be found on most campgrounds, at some gas stations and rest
areas along main roads and highways. The wastewater tanks should be emptied regularly, (every
two or three days.)
CAUTION:
NEVER run the furnace for an extended time WITHOUT a power connection. If the camper is not
hooked up to a 110V power grid (on the campground), the heater may become overloaded. The
fan consumes power that could quickly drain the camper batteries. The stress on the batteries
can be mitigated by setting the thermostat to the lowest possible temperature for comfort. The
renter is liable for repairs and loss of time due to battery overload!
