Tips; Draining & Storage; Troubleshooting - Holiday Navigator 2003 Owner's Manual

• To conserve LP-Gas, turn off the water heater when not in use.
• When using the shower, conserve energy and hot water by shutting
the shower water off when not in use.
• Use caution when adapted to 30 Amp shore service, or anything
less than 50 Amps. When the water heater element is in operation
it will use approximately 12 Amps. Appliances may need to be
operated in sequence to avoid tripping a breaker.
The temperature and pressure (T & P) safety relief valve on the outside of
the water heater is set to open at 210° F or 150 psi. When water temperature
and pressure reach these settings the valve may drip until the pressure has
dropped. Avoid opening the T & P valve manually as it may continue to leak.
The valves can be purchased from most hardware stores.
WARNING: Before beginning any service or work on the
water heater make sure the LP-Gas is turned off, the 120 Volt
AC source has been disconnected and the 12 Volt DC source
has been disconnected. Failure to do so can result in explosion,
fire or injury.
If the motorhome is to be stored for a long period, or during the winter
months, drain the water heater to prevent freeze damage.
1. Turn off the electrical power to the water heater.
2. Shut off the LP-Gas supply to the water heater.
3. Open low point drains.
4. Open both Hot and Cold on all faucets.
5. Turn the Bypass lever to BYPASS.
6. Remove the drain plug to allow the tank to drain.
NOTE: Be sure to refill the water heater with water before
resuming operation.
CAUTION: The water heater must be cool before draining.
• If water heater fails to light check the outside burner tube for
obstructions. Spiders may make nests in the burner tube.
• If the indicator light on the switch does not light and the water
heater does not light, ensure the battery cut-off switch at the entry
door is on or check for a blown fuse in the house distribution panel.
