FULL-COACH WATER
FILTRATION SYSTEM
–If Equipped
The full-coach water filtration system is
connected to the cold water lines throughout the
coach. It uses a flow-through filter that removes
chlorine, cloudiness, and sediments, resulting in
clear, odorless and taste-free clean water for
drinking, cooking, and personal care.
Replacing the Full-Coach Water
Filtration Cartridge
Replace the filter cartridge after 1,000 gallons
of usage or sooner if water flow from faucets is
noticeably reduced.
•
Turn off the water supply and relieve water
line pressure by opening a faucet.
•
Remove the filter canister from the filter head.
Use the filter wrench supplied to loosen the
filter canister.
•
Unscrew the canister from the filter head.
(There will be water inside the canister).
•
Remove the large O-ring seal from the
canister. Check seal for damage, wipe clean,
and set aside. Discard the used filter cartridge.
•
Wash the inside of the canister with dish soap
and warm water using a nonabrasive sponge
or cloth. Rinse thoroughly.
•
Fill canister about 1/3 with clean water and
add a couple of tablespoons of household
bleach, then scrub with a sponge or brush to
disinfect. Rinse thoroughly.
•
Lubricate the O-ring with clean silicone
grease to ensure a proper watertight seal, then
place back into the groove at the bottom of the
canister threads.
NOTE: The O-ring should be replaced every
third cartridge change to ensure proper
sealing. See your dealer for replacement
cartridges and O-rings.
•
Insert a new filter cartridge into the canister,
then hand tighten the canister securely onto
the filter head. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN.
