4. Pour the chlorine solution into the tank by accessing the potable water fill located outside the pas-
senger side of the motorhome.
5. Remove the water filter and put filter housing back on.
6. Open each faucet, in turn, including the kitchen faucet, bath faucet, inside and outside showers,
turning "on" both the hot and cold faucets and flushing the toilet until all of the air has been purged
from the pipes and the water runs freely. The entire system will then be filled with the sanitizing solu-
tion.
7. Allow the 50 ppm disinfecting solution to stand in the system at least four hours.
8. Drain the system and flush it with freshwater. The water system needs to be flushed with water
repeatedly, if necessary, until there is no chlorine taste or smell left in the system. To remove any exces-
sive chlorine taste or odor that might remain, prepare a solution of one quart of vinegar to five gallons
of water. "Rock" the tank containing the solution by moving the vehicle forward and backward several
times to clean the tank; then drain that tank and refill with clean water.
WASTEWATER SYSTEM
GENERAL INFORMATION
The waste drainage system was designed to provide adequate and safe storage and/or disposal of waste
materials. All of the materials used in the fabrication of this system are tested by a nationally recog-
nized testing laboratory. The drainage system uses plastic piping and fittings connected to the sinks,
toilet, and holding tanks.
This plumbing permits the drainage of these fixtures to an outside termination. The vehicle should be
reasonably level for best operation of both of the wastewater systems.
There are two, separate wastewater systems. The gray-water system is for wastewater from the sinks and
shower. The black-water system is for sewage waste from the toilet. Each wastewater tank has its own
control valve and both drain through a common sewer-drain hose.
