On-Board Water Tank
The On-Board water tank fill location is typically located on the driver side of your RV, labeled
'WARNING - Potable Water Only'. Fifth wheel models may be located inside the water center
compartment on the driver side.
1. Open the hatch door and remove the fill cap. Avoid allowing any debris to fall into the fill
opening.
2. Insert your 'Drinking Water Safe' water hose from the water source. Do not use an oversize hose
that seals off the opening of the fill spout. A smaller diameter hose allows for venting air space
in the fill opening with the hose inserted and will fill more quickly and reduce the chance of
pressurizing the tank. A pressurized tank can potentially damage fitting connections and even
floor and cabinet structures. The water tank must be allowed to vent adequately as it is being
filled.
3. Turn on water at the source. Do not attempt to fill the water tank too quickly. Allow air to escape
as water goes into the tank. Do not leave the RV unattended while filling.
4. Occasionally check water level on the monitor panel inside your RV. When the monitor indicates
that the tank is full, immediately shut off the water, remove hose, and close cap and door on
water fill inlet.
5. The water pump must be powered on to use the on-board water tank system.
Whenever possible, fill the water tank when you arrive at or near your campsite. This will make towing
and handling much more controllable and enjoyable.
 Never allow the water tank to be filled unattended. Never over-fill the
water tank or allow it to become pressurized. Damage to tank,
fittings, and floor or cabinet structures may occur. Damage caused
by over filling or improper filling of the freshwater tank is
considered misuse and is not covered by Outdoors RV Mfg
Warranty.
 USE POTABLE WATER ONLY IN THE FRESH WATER
SYSTEM. Sanitize, flush and drain before using. Failure to comply
could result in death or serious injury.
 Do not use the same hose for filling the potable water tank or for
connection to the city water inlet that you would use for cleaning
waste holding tanks. The use of a different hose will ensure that you
will not contaminate your fresh water supply.
