Water - Potable; Gravity Fill (If Equipped); City Water Hook-Up - Fleetwood Discovery Owner's Manual

WATER - POTABLE

When connecting the motorhome
to a fresh water source, use a hose
manufactured and labeled "for
potable water." This ensures the
hose is safe for drinking water. It
is recommended to install a water
pressure regulator at the water
source to protect the potable hose
and plumbing system from excess
pressure.
WARNING:
Hose and hose fittings not
manufactured for potable
water can contain unsafe
levels of lead. It is highly
recommended to use only
fresh water supply hoses
manufactured for potable
water use.
Connect the pressure
‹
regulator to the water
source.
Connect potable hose to
‹
the regulator then to the
City Water/Fresh Tank Fill
connection located in the
water service center.
Set the water control lever
‹
to the Tank Fill position.

Turn on the water.
‹
Periodically press the Test
‹
switch on the monitor
panel to gauge fill rate. Do
not leave the motorhome
unattended while filling the
fresh water tank.
The tank is nearing full
‹
when the light marked "F"
illuminates. When the tank
is completely full, water
will flow out an overflow
tube under the motorhome.
Turn off water supply
‹
and return the water
control lever to City Water
position.
Disconnect the potable
‹
hose. Remove pressure
regulator. Store the hose
with both ends connected
to prevent debris from
entering the hose.
CAUTION:
It is recommended to place
a pressure regulator at the
water source to protect the
potable water system from
over-pressurization. Some
water sources have high
water pressure, particularly
in mountainous regions.
High water pressure is
anything over 55 Pounds
per Square Inch (PSI).
Excessive water pressure
may cause leaks in water
lines and/or damage the
water heater. Excess
pressure can cause the
water hose to swell and
burst.

Gravity Fill (If Equipped)

The gravity fill inlet allows fluids
to be introduced directly into the
fresh water tank. Water can be
poured directly from a container
into the fresh water tank. The
gravity fill inlet can be used to
pour disinfecting solution into the
fresh water tank. Use only potable
water sources, solutions and
delivery systems when using the
gravity fill inlet.
