□ Check all fittings, pressure and waste, for leaks before each trip or before
vehicle storage as part of your normal maintenance.
□ Inspect all faucets, the water purification system (if so equipped) and sink
connections (including drain baskets or filters).
□ Inspect connections at the water pump and water heater.
□ At the end of every trip, you should drain any unused water from the fresh
water system.
□ The fresh water (or potable water) system needs periodic sanitization and
winterization to take care of all the components within the plumbing system
and help discourage the growth of bacteria and other organisms that can
contaminate the water supply.
There are labels affixed to the exterior of the RV’s sidewall that indicate the
locations of the water system drains and fills. Be aware some drains may be
located inside the RV (once the exterior label is found, go inside to find the drain
corresponding location). Do not remove these labels.

All water contains contaminant and mineral particles that can cause fresh water
system odors. Untreated well water is a major source of water system odors. The
fresh water (or potable water) system needs periodic sanitization and winterization
to take care of all the components within the plumbing system and help
discourage the growth of bacteria and other organisms that can contaminate the
water supply.

The fresh water tank can be filled from a water container using the Gravity Fill or
from an external pressurized source using the City Water Fill. Plastic overflow
tubes are plumbed into the fresh water holding tank to allow water to flow out of
the water tank. Occasionally, you may see water coming from the overflow tubes
(located underneath the RV) when the fresh water holding tank is filled. This is
normal, and is caused by external circumstances, including the RV being parked
on an incline, or the motion caused by starting or stopping the RV during travel.
Do not cap, block or modify the fresh water tank overflow tubes in any way.
Enough water pressure can build up during the filling process to damage the
plumbing system if the overflow tubes are obstructed.
WARNING
DO NOT drink water deemed microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality.
CAUTION
Be careful not to overfill the fresh water holding tank. It can pressurize the
tank, causing leakage and water damage and void the warranty. DO NOT
leave the tank unattended while filling.
