Water Control Valve Operation - Jayco Swift Owner's Manual

Section 8: Plumbing System
City Fill Tank - Allows you to fill your fresh water tank using city water.
Country Fill - Allows you to siphon fill your fresh water tank (using the 12-volt water
pump) when you do not have access to city water.
Normal - If the RV is not connected to city water, allows you to pump water from the fresh
water tank to all faucets using the 12-volt water pump.
Sanitize/Winterize Lines – Allows you to sanitize or winterize the water lines.
Sanitize Tank – Allows you to sanitize the fresh water tank.
You should always use a non-
toxic drinking water hose dedi-
cated only to supplying the
motor home with fresh water
through the city water connec-
tion inlet. To reduce the chance
of contamination, prevent the
non-toxic drinking water hose
from coming into contact with
the ground. Install the city water connection inlet cap when the city water connection is not
being used.
NOTE: A short hose is supplied with your motor home for use in sanitiz-
ing or winterizing the water lines in your RV. It can also be used to siphon
fill the fresh water tank when no city water is available. One end of this
hose has a fitting that will screw onto the city water connection inlet allow-
ing the other end to be put into a container of fresh water, sanitizer or RV
antifreeze (refer to Sanitizing/Winterizing the Plumbing System).
NOTE: The City Water Connection should be unplugged (i.e., the non-
toxic drinking water hose disconnected) when the motor home is unattend-
ed for any amount of time. If something would happen to the water system,
this may help limit water damage to a smaller area.
Do not remove this label from your motor home:
Potable Water Only Label
(label appearance may not be exact)

Water Control Valve Operation

City Fixtures: Use this setting if the motor home can be hooked up to an external pressur-
ized water source (referred to as "city water"). If needed, sanitize the water system prior to
travel.
1. Move the water heater bypass valves (if equipped) to the NORMAL position (supply
line valves ON).
2. Remove the city water connection inlet cap and attach a non-toxic drinking water hose
to the city water connection inlet and the other end to a pressurized water source.
