WATER PRESSURE REGULATOR (page 62)
A water pressure regulator is recommended to prevent damage to
the plumbing system or components. To prevent damage when using
the city water connection, a 45 lb. (315 KPa) rated water pressure
regulator is recommended.
FRESH WATER HOLDING TANK (page 62)
Do not cap, block or modify the fresh water tank overflow tubes in any
way. Enough water pressure can build up during the filling process to
damage the plumbing system if the overflow tubes are obstructed.
Be careful not to overfill the fresh water holding tank. It can pressurize
the tank, causing leakage and water damage and void the warranty.
DO NOT leave the tank unattended while filling.
WATER PURIFICATION SYSTEM (page 64)
Do not allow water in the canister housing to freeze.
Remove the filter before using anti-freeze to winterize the system or
chlorine solution to sanitize the system.
Flush canister housing thoroughly before it is put back into service
after winterizing or sanitizing.
For best results replace filter every 6-12 months.
Do not use carbon cartridges where water is microbiologically unsafe
or of unknown quality.
Maximum operating pressure is 125 psi (8.75 bar).
Maximum water temperature is 125° F (52° C).
TOILET (page 64)
It is important to prevent solid waste buildup. Follow the toilet
manufacturer's recommended instructions each time after emptying
the black water holding tank.
To help prevent toilet blockage, always use RV grade single-ply toilet
paper. Do not flush paper towels, diapers, sanitary napkins or other
foreign objects down the toilet.
Do not use chlorine (undiluted) or caustic chemicals, such as laundry
bleach or drain opening types, in the toilet system. These products
damage the seals in toilets and dump valves.
WINTERIZING WITH THE ANTIFREEZE METHOD (page 76)
Water can accumulate in the flexible hose and dump connector of
the macerator system. When winterizing the RV, antifreeze must be
added to the macerator system.
PLUMBING SYSTEM
ON DEMAND WATER HEATER (page 69)
Water in pipes, faucets and appliances could freeze. Considerable
damage may result.
Before you fill water into appliances and parts that transport water,
you must heat the installation area sufficiently so that water cannot
freeze.
BLACK/GREY WATER HOLDING TANKS (page 71)
Never leave the black tank drain in the open position continuously
when connected to the campground sewer system. Leaving the drain
open will allow the liquid to drain out increasing the potential for a
blockage in the tank. Keeping the drain in the closed position will
prevent debris from accumulating in the tank.
Do not add automotive antifreeze or caustic chemicals, such as
laundry detergents, into the holding tanks. Although these products
may have a deodorizing effect, they may damage the plastic and
rubber parts of the plumbing system or the components.
MACERATOR PUMP SYSTEM (page 73)
Water can accumulate in the flexible hose and dump connector of
the macerator system. When winterizing the RV, antifreeze must be
added to the macerator system.
BLACK TANK FLUSH (page 74)
The black tank drain valve must be OPEN any time there is a hose
(water supply) connected to the black tank flush.
Do not leave any hose (water supply) connected to the black tank
flush when it is not in use.
TANK HEATERS (page 74)
In order for the 120VAC tank heaters to be in operation, the recreation
vehicle MUST be hooked up to shore power or under generator
power.
If the recreation vehicle is not operating on shore power or generator
power, only the +12VDC heaters will operate. This can result in the
tanks freezing.
The red light on the command center tank switch does not necessarily
indicate that ALL heaters are operating; it is only a warning that the
heater circuit is ON.
