avoided by using moisture free gas and keeping 
all tank valves CLOSED during storage.   
 
An overfilled tank can allow liquid gas, rather 
than the needed vapor, to flow through the 
regulator.  This can result in erratic regulator 
delivery pressure, improper appliance operation 
and possible frosting of the regulator and gas 
line.  This can be avoided by following the 

procedures outlined in “Filling the LP Tank.”  

Always contact your local gas supplier for 
current procedures. 
 

HOSE REPLACEMENT 

 
The flexible LP gas hoses connected to your LP 
tanks should be checked regularly for signs of 
deterioration and may need to be replaced 
every two to three years.  Be sure to replace the 
hoses with approved and properly rated 
products. 
 

PLUMBING 

 

FRESH WATER 

 
Fresh water for your RV is provided by filling the 
FRESH WATER TANK or by hooking directly to a 
city water connection.  These sources supply 
water to the kitchen sink, shower, lavatory, 
toilet and water heater. 
 

CITY WATER 

 
Allows you to connect a hose to a city 

pressurized water faucet to the unit’s CITY 

WATER INLET.  Your vehicle will have a separate 
water fill for the FRESH WATER TANK.  The fresh 
water tank and water pump or by-passed when 
the city water hook up is used. 
 
CAUTION:  A PRESSURE REGULATOR SHOULD BE 
ALWAYS BE USED WHEN CONNECTING TO CITY 
WATER.  EXCESSIVE WATER PRESSURE CAN 
DAMAGE LINES AND CONNECTIONS, CAUSING 
WATER DAMAGE TO YOUR RV.  MAKE SURE 
WATER PRESSURE NEVER EXEEDS 60 PSI. 

 

WATER TANK 

 
UNLOCK the GRAVITY WATER FILL HATCH and 
use a hose or vessel to fill the water tank.   
 
CAUTION:  NEVER LEAVE THE RV UNATTENDED 
WHEN FILLING THE FRESH WATER TANK!  
ALTHOUGH PROPER VENTING IS ALLOWED FOR 
OVERFLOW, THE WATER PRESSURE CAN 
EXPAND THE TANK AND CAUSE STRUCTURAL 
DAMAGE. 
 
Use only fresh, potable water in the storage 
tank.  To insure that the tank is clean, drain 
after each use.  Sanitize the tank when new, 
whenever contamination is suspected, or 
whenever it has not been used for a long period 
of time. 
 

SANITIZING THE WATER TANK 

 
To drain, OPEN the WATER TANK VALVE.  When 
the tank is empty, CLOSE the valve.  Mix three 
(3) gallons of water with three-quarters cup of 
LIQUID HOUSEHOLD BLEACH.  Pour this solution 
into the tank through the GRAVITY FILL.  Wait 
three hours, drain and flush several times with 
fresh drinking water. 
 

WATER PUMP 

 
The RV water pump is a 12-volt DC appliance 
that is activated by a switch in the kitchen area.  
The switch may be left ON while camping.  This 
is called the demand system. 
 
Turn the faucet on when you want water.  The 
pump will run only as long as needed.  If the 
pump fails when the switch is ON, check the 
fuse located in the converter.  If the pump 
continues to operate whether the faucet is 
open or closed, check the water tank to see if it 
is empty and check to see if there is a leak in 
the system. 
 
DO NOT RUN THE WATER PUMP WITHOUT 
WATER IN THE SYSTEM.  ALWAYS KEEP THE
