For general maintenance of the water heater or specific information about select steps in operating the water
heater, please refer to the owner’s manual for this appliance contained in the Owner’s Information Package.
Warning
DO NOT STORE any combustible or flammable substances near or adjacent to the water
heater. Provide adequate space for ventilation and air circulation.
Water Heater Storage
If the motor home is to be stored during the winter months, the water heater should be drained to prevent
damage caused by freezing water contained in the water heater. To drain the water heater, first turn “off” all
electrical power, turn “off” the LP gas going to the water heater, then turn “off” the water pump. Open both
the hot- and the cold-water faucets to drain the water lines and open the drain on the water heater to drain the
entire system.
When re-activating the water heater after the motor home is taken out of storage, make sure that the entire
water system, including the water heater, has been filled with water and the lines have been purged of any
entrapped air before relighting the water heater. Failure to do so may allow the water-heating element to be
turned “on” before such is immersed in water; thereby, causing the premature failure of the heating element
and voiding the warranty.
Pressure-Relief Valve
The relief valve for over-pressure and over-temperature conditions is located on the exterior of the water
heater. This valve will operate if the water temperature reaches or exceeds 210
°
F or if the water pressure
reaches or exceeds 150 psig. Since the water system in the motor home is a closed system when all water valves
are shut, the water-heating cycle can raise the temperature (and, consequently, the pressure) of the water in the
water heater; thereby realizing pressure increases approaching 150 psig.
Should this pressure (i.e., 150 psig) be reached, the pressure-relief valve will begin “weeping,” that is, minor
dripping or leakage from that valve until the pressure drops below 150 psig, at which time the pressure-relief
valve will re-seat itself and restrict the water flow. This is normal operation and should not be a cause for
alarm. Do not obstruct or block the pressure-relief valve in any way, as this would keep the valve from
functioning normally and protecting the hot water system.
CB Radio System Antenna Connection
The Phaeton comes equipped with an antenna and coaxial-cable connection (Figure
4-17) to enable the owner to install a Citizens Band (CB) radio of choice and
operate it conveniently from the Phaeton. The coaxial-cable connection for the
radio is found beneath the dashboard on the driver’s side. Accordingly, with an
