SECTION 10
STORING YOUR MOTOR HOME
10-1
PREPARING VEHICLE FOR
STORAGE
Properly preparing your vehicle for storage
will lessen the possibility of damage to your
vehicle. Prepare the motor home for vacancy just
as you would if you were leaving your house for
an extended period:
•
Remove all perishables from cabinets and re-
frigerator
•
Prop refrigerator door open.
•
Turn off LP gas tank.
•
Drain water heater, water tank and holding
tank.
•
Close shades to protect upholstery from sun-
light
When storing your vehicle through the
winter, or in cold climates, extra preparations
need to be made to protect systems that can be
damaged by freezing temperatures.
Cold Weather Storage
Procedure (Winterizing)
1. Clean and dump holding tanks by following
steps A, B, and C
A.
Add water to the sewage holding tank
by holding the toilet flush lever open
with the water pump running. Add wa-
ter to the waste water holding tanks by
opening the kitchen, shower and lavato-
ry faucets. Tanks should be about 1/4 to
1/3 full to rinse properly. Driving to a
disposal site will normally loosen and
rinse any waste material from the sides
of the tank.
B.
Completely drain the sewage and waste
water holding tanks at an approved
waste disposal site. Drain the sewage
tank first so the following waste water
can rinse any waste solids from the
dump outlet and sewer hose.
C.
Close dump valves and refit the dust cap
onto the drain outlet.
2. Level the motor home and drain the entire
plumbing system as described in the follow-
ing steps.
3. Open all drain valves by rotating as shown.
See Section 7 for drain valve location for
your model.
4. Turn the Water Pump switch ON to allow it
to operate until you are done draining all fau-
cets and toilet.
5. Open all faucets and shower head valves,
including exterior shower.
6. Operate the toilet flush lever and hold until
water stops flowing in the toilet. Then turn
water pump switch OFF.
7. Drain the water heater by turning the valve at
the base of the water heater tank. Also open
the Pressure-Temperature relief valve at the
to right portion of the tank to prevent air
locking in the tank while draining. See Sec-
tion 7 for drain valve locations for your
model.
8. After water has stopped draining at all fau-
cets and drain valves, connect a “blow-out”
plug to the city water connection on the
coach. Then use a compressed air hose regu-
lated to 30 psi or less to force air through the
system. (A “blow-out” plug can be pur-
chased at any Winnebago or Itasca dealer. P/
N 701705-01-000.)
