NOTE: There is an overflow line that will drain onto the ground if the tank is filled
beyond capacity. Always fill the tank with potable water from a known safe source
using a hose designated for potable water.
WATER PUMP
The self contained water system is a demand only system. This means the system must be
pressurized. A self-priming 12 volt DC pump is provided to handle this function. This means
that the water pump will run whenever there is a need for water. If the pump runs when all
faucet's are closed, there may be a leak in the system. If this happens turn the pump OFF,
and have the systems checked by a qualified service center. When initially starting up the self
contained water system, follow this procedure:
1. Make sure the tank is filled with water.
2. Open all the faucet's in the motorhome, both hot and cold.
3. Place the pump control switch to the ON position. There are two water pump
switches, one in the systems compartment and the other is located on the monitor
panel. Both switches must be ON for the water pump to operate.
4. Allow time for the hot water tank to fill. Shut off each faucet as the flow becomes
steady and free of air. When the last faucet is shut off, the pump should also shut off
5. The system is now ready for use.
NOTE: When filling the system, you may want to add additional water to the tank to
replace the water used when filling the hot water tank and water lines.
When traveling, you may want to drain the tank, or keep the quantity of water to a minimum.
This reduces the total weight of the motorhome for travel. Make sure when draining the tank,
that the water pump has been turned off. The fresh water tank valve is located in the systems
compartment in the bottom by the fresh water tank. Water in the tank can be drained by
turning the drain cock to the open position. When trying to drain entire on-board fresh water
system, make sure to open faucet's, water heater drain, and system low point drains to
remove all fresh water from the system. When the system is finished draining, be sure to
close all drains before filling again.
