NOTE: ALWAYS use the water heater P & T Valve (pressure and temperature valve) to
relieve the water pressure, BEFORE you remove the water heater drain plug. If
you do not relieve the water pressure, water will spray out of the opening when
the drain plug is removed.
6. After draining the fresh water system, close all faucets and drain valves. It is normal
for some liquid to remain in the fresh water tank after drainage procedure.

SANITIZING THE FRESH WATER SYSTEM

Use the following procedures to sanitize your Fresh Water System when it is new, becomes
contaminated, or has not been used for a period of time.
If you RV does not have a SANITIZE function, do the following steps to sanitize your fresh
water system:
1. Set your wet bay valves to NORMAL and TANK FILL.
NOTE: Don't charge your water hose in the wet bay yet.
2. Take your water filter housing off, take the filter out and fill the water filter with
cleaning solution (bleach or any sanitizing solution).
3. Reattach the water filter housing.
4. Charge the city water housing with your water hose.
NOTE:
As an option, several commercial solutions are available, and should be used as
directed on the package.
