Winterizing Washing Machine (if so equipped)
While you are putting antifreeze in the water lines follow these instructions to winterize the
washing machine:
1. Set the Cycle Selector to RINSE.
2. Set the Wash Temperature to WARM.
3. Press the ON/OFF button to turn the washer on.
4. Press the START button to begin the rinse cycle.
5. Antifreeze should flow into the drum. When antifreeze begins flowing in the drum,
press and hold the START button to cancel the rinse cycle. Add several cups of
antifreeze in the drum.
6. Turn the Cycle Selector to DRAIN.
7. Press the START button to begin draining the antifreeze out of the drum and into the
pump assembly.
8. When antifreeze disappears out of the drum press and hold the START button to cancel
the Drain cycle. Press the ON/OFF button to turn off the washer.
To De-winterize the Dishwasher and Washing Machine
Run a regular empty wash cycle which will remove antifreeze from the dishwasher, washing
machine and water lines. You can now use the dishwasher and washing machine normally.

Water from the sinks and shower (or tub) flow into the gray water (or waste water) holding
tank. Water from the toilet will flow into the sewage (or black water) holding tank. Certain
floor plans may also have the lavatory draining into the waste (black) tank.
Drain pipes
The drain pipes have a “P-trap” installed to help prevent odors from escaping into the motor
home. During travel, water from the P-traps may spill and permit odors into the motor home.
These odors come from food particles decomposing in the tank.
By adding water and using a RV approved deodorizing agent you will dissolve the contents
faster and will keep the drain lines and tanks clean and free flowing. These chemicals are
available at an RV supply store or your dealer.
Vents
Another important part of this system is the vent pipes and vents that release air from the
grey and black water holding tanks. The exterior vent cap is attached to the roof and must be
kept clear of obstructions to perform as intended.
On some models, the vent pipe may be part of the drainage system referred to as a “wet vent”
(water flows downward as air flows upward in the same pipe).

Dump the gray and black water holding tanks before traveling to avoid carrying unnecessary
weight. The weight of the holding tank contents is not calculated into the motor home cargo
carrying capacity (this extra weight would reduce your available cargo capacity).
Traveling with the tanks full can affect your fuel consumption, and depending on the location
of the tanks, can affect your vehicle handling characteristics.
If you are dry camping and cannot immediately empty your holding tanks, reduce your
