Water And Holding Tank Levels
Press and hold the “Levels Test” switch to
show approximate level on the monitor lights.
These approximate water levels are measured
by electronic sensors on the sides of the tanks.
There is generally more water in a tank than indi-
cated on the monitor panel.
For example, if the water level is 1-2” below
the FULL sensor, the monitor will show the level
to be only 2/3 even though the tank is nearly full.
If the water level is below the 1/3 sensor, the
monitor will register an empty tank even though
there may actually be some water left in the tank.
However, when the indicator reads FULL, the
tank is actually full.
Tank Capacities
See “Capacities” page (1-1) at the front of
this manual.
LP Gas Level
Press and hold the “Levels Test” switch to
show approximate LP tank level.
The LP level is registered by a sending unit on
the tank. The gauge mounted on the side of the
tank will give a more accurate indication of actu-
al tank level if needed.
Water Pump Switch
When use of the self-contained water system
is desired, turn the “Water Pump” switch on. The
“Pump On” light will illuminate when the pump
switch is on and the system is operable. Water
will be available as soon as a faucet is opened.
Refer to “Water Pump” on page 10-1 for addi-
tional information on the water pump and initial
start-up. (There is also a pump switch in the water
system compartment on the outside of the coach.)
Battery Charge Meter
Push the “Levels Test” button to check the level
of charge (voltage) in the 12-volt coach battery.
The colored segments (red, yellow and green)
will light from the bottom up to the amount of
charge the battery contains.
∗
Green - good or adequate charge.
∗
Yellow - marginal charge.
∗
Red - battery needs charging before use.
To get an accurate reading;
1. Both the chassis engine and the auxiliary
generator engine must be shut off and 110
Vac shoreline unplugged.
2. An interior light should be turned on to pro-
vide a small load which draws off the battery
surface charge.
WATER HEATER
Direct Ignition Models
1. Place Water Heater switch in the “On” posi-
tion. The switch and “Pilot Out” light are
located on the monitor panel.
