ATER URIFICATION
The water purification system is located under
the kitchen sink. If the water supply has not
been used for some time, allow the water to
flow for several minutes to flush the system.
When not in use, the water filter cartridge
should be stored out of freezing temperatures.
RV antifreeze will damage the water filter
cartridge. The OEM has supplied a clear
plastic bypass hose with fittings on either end
to replace the water filter cartridge when the
RV is being winterized. This clear plastic
bypass hose is re-usable; store it when it is not
in use.
Each new RV is winterized with RV antifreeze
before it leaves Jayco, Inc. To use the water
purification system the clear plastic bypass
hose must be removed and the water filter
cartridge installed.
Replacing the water filter cartridge
Replace the water filter cartridge when water
flow from the kitchen faucet is too slow for
convenience, or at least once a year.

To drain the fresh water holding tank and
supply lines:
1. Open all faucets, including the outside
shower faucet.
2. Open the "fresh tank
drain" valve.
All permanent
water tanks can be
drained by one of two
types of drain valve: a
white plastic drain is
attached to the exterior
wall (open valve to
drain) or a valve located
inside the RV adjacent to the water tank
(this knob turns 45° to open or close).
3. Open the "low point
drains."
As their
indicates, they will be
at the lowest point of
water lines. A label is
placed on the outside
of the RV to indicate
where the drains are located. The drains
will typically need to be opened from inside
the motorhome. Once the label is found on
the exterior sidewall, go inside the RV to
find the corresponding location of the
drains.
