The faucets operate much the same way as the faucets in your home. Make sure
there is sufficient water available and, if dry camping, the 12-volt water pump is
turned ON before operating.
To open the faucets, turn the hot and cold knobs ON and adjust the temperature
to your comfort level. Close the faucets when a sufficient amount of water is
released.
The tub/shower faucet requires a vacuum breaker when the shower hose and
head are used. There are two purposes for this breaker:
□ To prevent siphoning water through the hose from another fixture.
□ To prevent water from being contained in the hose.
The showerhead DOES NOT have a complete shut-off valve (the complete shut-
off is at the faucet). The showerhead may drip slightly in the OFF position after
use; this is normal and does not indicate a leak or defect. There may be air in the
plumbing lines that will need to be bled out before a steady stream of water comes
from the faucet.

HOWER
The bathing facilities in your motor home function similar to those in your home.
Keep the water heater and holding tank capacities in mind when using the fresh
water system. Long showers are not suggested due to the limited amount of water
available. The used water will drain through the plumbing pipes into the grey water
holding tank.
1. Be sure the water heater is ON and had sufficient time to heat the water.
2. If dry camping, be sure your 12-volt water pump is ON.
3. Adjust the hot and cold faucets to the desired temperature before bathing.
4. To conserve water while showering, wet down and turn the water OFF while
you use soap, then rinse.
5. When you are finished, shut the water faucets OFF.
Unlike your home, the motor home does not contain a water pressure balance
valve. If someone is using the shower, it is recommended that the fresh water
system NOT BE USED until they are finished.
Maintenance
Read the manufacturer’s operator manual or label instructions. The tub/shower
walls (if applicable) in your motor home are made of ABS plastic material. Use a
mild detergent soap and warm water to clean. Contact your RV dealer for repair or
replacement.
Do not use gritty or abrasive particle soaps or scouring compound to clean ABS
plastic. Avoid using “Citrus” or biodegradable cleaners which contain “D-
Limonene.” They will damage plastic materials.

Use mild dish soap and water to clean these fixtures. Do not use harsh chemicals
or sprays. A mild solution of vinegar and water works well to remove hard water
spots and stains from the sink or shower fixtures.
