AIRSTREAM INTERNATIONAL TRAILER OWNERS MANUAL
Central Control Panel
The SeeLeveL Control panel monitors the 3 holding tanks, showing the percent water or sewage level on a
digital LED display with an accuracy of +/-2%. In addition, the system can display the operating
characteristics of each of the tank sending units, giving it unsurpassed diagnostic capability.
Battery voltage is displayed with an accuracy of +/- 0.1 volts, and the display contains a switch to control
the fresh water pump The battery condition tester, used when not plugged into 110-volt power, will indicate
whether the trailer batteries are in good, fair or poor condition. When they show weak or bad condition you
should take every reasonable step to conserve power by using as few lights as possible and switching off
appliances. The battery should be charged as soon as practical with the tow vehicle charging system, or by
connection to 110-volt power.
Further information and instructions are available on this system in the electrical section of this manual
under monitor panel and a complete manual is included with this packet..
Water Heater Switch
The water heater switch with a red indicator light is for lighting the water heater and is located on the rear
galley rooflocker on the AS 22Ft. and between the desk and dinette on the CS wall on the 22 Ft. CCD
models.
Water Pump Switch
The water pump switch is located on the monitor panel that is mounted on the galley roof locker on the 22
Ft AS model and between the desk and dinette seat on the CS wall in the 22 Ft. CCD models. Once the
switch is turned on the pump will run until the water pressure reaches about 65 psi. At this point an internal
pressure switch will shut it off. When a faucet is opened the water pressure will drop and the pump will
start to run again. The water pump should be turned off when the trailer is left unattended and when city
water is being used as the fresh water supply.
Bathroom Exhaust Fan
The bathroom exhaust fan is in the bathroom ceiling and is opened by pushing up on the handle running
across the fan opening.
Shower Head
The lavatory sink spout pulls out for the showerhead. It is designed to give maximum flexibility in usage,
and provides for water saving techniques when using your trailer on self-containment. It can be held in the
hand and moved about the body. Normally the best water conservation procedure is to wet the entire body
and then turn the water off. Apply soap, lather thoroughly, and then rinse the soap off. The telephone
showerhead is also used to fill the tub for taking a bath.
Ceiling Light Fixtures
On the AS model the ceiling light fixture has a high-low switch located in the center of the fixture. By
sliding the switch to the first position only one half of the light is turned on. Moving the switch further will
turn the entire light on. Gently squeezing in the middle and pulling down will remove the LENS. During
cold weather it is a good idea to leave the light on a few minutes prior to removing the lens.
On the CCD model the dinette, patio, and indirect light switches are located by the main door. Galley,
shower, and another indirect lighting switches are located in the galley area.
A 3-gang wall switch just inside the door will also control the ceiling, patio, and galley lights.
