and allows water remaining in the hose to drain
down. This is a normal function of the shower

SHOWER
(Model 59G)
Shower Drain Pump Switch
Because of the compact nature of this
motorhome, the shower has a small sump pump
to draw water from the shower floor into the
sewage water holding tank while the shower is in
use.
The Shower Drain Pump switch is located
near the shower head. Press the switch to turn the
pump on. A small light on the switch will glow to
indicate when the pump is active.
Turn the pump on as you begin to shower and
leave running to remove the water from the floor
while showering.
Turn the pump off when the water is
completely removed after finishing the shower.
Shower Drain Strainer and Filter
The drain sump area in the shower has a
strainer and filter to keep debris from entering the
lines and damaging the pump. The strainer and
filter should be removed periodically for
cleaning.
The strainer screws into the floor of the sump
area. If the strainer is difficult to remove,
additional grip can be gained by wrapping a wash
cloth around the top of the strainer.
The filter is located underneath the shower
drain strainer. Remove the strainer to access the
filter.
Rinse off the debris, soap or water mineral
deposits from the strainer and filter. Reinsert
filter and screw the strainer back into shower
floor.
