Water

A complete fresh water system is included in your RV. Fresh water is supplied to the
system from two sources:
• A city fill connection hooked to an exterior water source.
• A gravity fill tank installed on the trailer.

TO UTILIZE THE CITY WATER CONNECTION

1. Attach a fresh water hose from the city water connection
(Fig. 9) to the campground water source.
2. When the water is turned on, you may experience some air in the
water lines. Make sure to let all this air escape before turning off the
faucet.
Caution: The handle should be in the tank water position when
connecting the city water to avoid a city water spill.

TO UTILIZE THE INSTALLED TANK

Gravity Fill Tank

1. Remove the cap from the gravity fill connection. (Fig. 10)
2. From an exterior water source, insert the fresh water hose into the gravity fill
connection.
3. Fill the tank as desired. The size of the tank will vary based on your unit's floor plan.
It is also equipped with an overflow outlet. Make sure that you do not leave the tank
unattended while filling it. Do not overfill the tank.
Caution: Be careful not to overfill the tank. It can pressurize the tank, causing
leakage and water damage and void the warranty. DO NOT leave the tank
unattended while filling.

12 VOLT DC ON-DEMAND WATER PUMP

To exract water from your water tank, you need 12 volt DC power to operate the
on-demand water pump. Energy for the pump is supplied by the auxiliary battery or
converter. Depending on your trailer model, the pump will be located under the bed, in a
cupboard, under the unit or under the sink. The switch to operate the pump is located on the
monitor panel or a wall near the pump.
Refer to instructions supplied by the pump manufacturer with your trailer. If you have
questions, consult with your independent, authorized dealer and/or visit the manufacturer's
website at www.shurflo.com.
.
NOTE: The water pump switch should be in the off position when the camper is left
unattended for any amount of time. If something would happen to the water system,
this will help limit water damage to a smaller area.
