5. Turn OFF city water supply and disconnect
from the Fresh Water Inlet.
6. Turn Fresh Water valve to Normal position to
use the water pump.
NOTE: The Tank Fill position is only for
pressure filling the water tank from the
city water hose connection.
Using City Water
When connected to an outside source of water,
the water bypasses the water pump and storage
tank and supplies pressure directly to individual
faucets and toilet(s). A check valve built into the
pump prevents water from entering the pump and
filling the storage tank.
•
Connect hose to Fresh Water Inlet as
described in previous steps.
•
With the Fresh Water valve in the Normal
position, turn the Water Pump switch(es)
OFF.
NOTE: Always keep the Fresh Water valve in
Normal position unless you are filling the
tank. If this valve is left in the Tank Fill
position while using the city water, water
will keep flowing into the tank and out
the tank vent tube onto the ground and
the water pump will run without
delivering water to faucets.
Disconnecting from City Water
•
Turn the city water supply OFF.
•
Open a faucet on the coach (such as exterior
wash station) to relieve waterline pressure.
•
Disconnect hose from the coach and replace
cap on the Fresh Water Inlet.
Be sure to
replace the protective cap on the hose end to
avoid entrance by debris or insects.
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
Always fill the fresh water tank at an approved
potable water filling facility or known purified
drinking water source.
The gravity tank fill port is located in the first
passenger side compartment.
NOTICE
Do not leave fresh water connection
unattended when filling tank. Failure to
comply may result in tank expansion and
property damage.
