PLUMBING
NOTE: Ensure the Fresh Water valve is in
NORMAL position to use the water
pump. If the valve is in Tank Fill position,
the pump will run continuously without
delivering water.
Method 2 - Filling the Fresh Water
Tank Through Gravity Fill
(screw off/on removable plug)
Always fill the fresh water tank at an approved
potable water filling facility or a known purified
drinking water source.
•
Remove plug from top of tank.
•
Insert hose into fill opening and turn water
supply on. Tank is full when water flows from
the tank vent tube beneath the motorhome.
Using Tank Water (Gravity Fill)
•
Turn Water Pump switch ON. While the
switch is on, the water pump will
automatically supply tank water as needed.
WATER PUMP
When your motorhome is not connected to a
city water supply, water is supplied from the
fresh water tank by a water system demand
pump. A demand pump is designed to run only
when you are using water. When you open a
faucet, the waterline pressure drops and the pump
begins to run, and it will continue to run as long
as the faucet is open. When you close the faucet,
the line pressure backs up to the pump, and it
shuts itself off.
The pump is self-priming and will run briefly
to build up line pressure when the Water Pump
switch is first turned on. See “Initial Waterline
Priming” for instructions on using the water
system for the first time.
WARNING
Potable water only.
Sanitize, flush, and drain water tank
before using.
See owner’s manual for instructions,
care, and maintenance information.
Failure to maintain tank can result in
death or serious injury.
