City Water Hook-Up

When connecting your unit to city water, be certain to use a water hose
manufactured and labeled for potable water. This will ensure that the hose
will not alter the taste of the water. To hook the city water supply to the unit,
connect one end of the hose to the city water supply. This will usually be a
faucet or valve similar to your garden hose valve at home. Turn the city water
supply on for a few seconds in order to clear the line. Once the hose has been
flushed, turn the supply off. Connect the other end of the hose to the city water
connections. Turn on the water supply and open all of the faucets to clear the
air from the lines in the unit. Once air pockets have been purged from the
water lines and water flows freely, close all of the faucets. The city water
supply is under pressure, therefore the water pump is not necessary when
connected to city water. Once the city water fill valve is opened, water is
supplied to the fresh water system including the hot water heater, faucets,
and stool. To disconnect from the city water supply, close the spigot valve and
remove the hose from the city water supply. Disconnect the hose from the
city water connection and store the hose in the water compartment.

Fresh Water Tank Fill

The fresh water tank is filled via the "gravity" fill connection located on the
side of your unit. Open the door to access the gravity fill, and add water as
desired. Since there is not an automatic shut-off for the fresh water tank fill,
check the level from the monitor panel while filling the unit. The excess water
will be vented from an overflow vent pipe onto the ground when the tank
capacity has been reached. This pipe is installed in the fresh water tank to
prevent tank rupture from overfilling. All of the water should be drained from
the fresh water system when the unit is not in use for more than one week.
Whenever possible, drain the fresh water tank before traveling. Water in the
tank will reduce the carrying capacity of the unit.

Sanitizing

To assure complete disinfecting of your fresh water system, it is recommended
that the following procedure be followed on a new system, on one that has not
been used for a length of time, or one that may have become contaminated.
