container on a surface approximately two feet above ground level.
10. Turn the water pump ON. If the water pump fails to self-prime, temporarily open the
low point drains. Close the low point drains as soon as the water pump primes (RV
antifreeze will begin draining out) and before continuing to the next step.
11. Open the hot water line on all the faucets (kitchen, lavatory, shower and outside show-
er) until RV antifreeze begins to flow continuously.
12. Appliances should also be winterized.
13. Close the faucet hot water lines and repeat with the cold water lines on all the faucets.
14. Flush the toilet a couple of times until you see antifreeze in the bowl.

When you are done adding RV antifreeze:

1. Turn the water pump OFF. Turn siphon valve OFF. Remove the clear hose from the
container of RV antifreeze. Leave the water tank shutoff valve closed to keep antifreeze
out of the fresh water tank. See Water Heater Bypass Diagram.
2. Pour 1 cup of RV antifreeze into the sink drain P-trap.
3. To prevent staining, wipe RV antifreeze out of the sinks, shower (or tub) and toilet us-
ing a soft, dry cloth.
NOTE: In the spring when flushing antifreeze out of the water lines,
make sure to turn the water tank shutoff valve back ON. After flushing out
water lines the water filter should be re-installed.
TRUMA® Tankless Water Heater (if so equipped)
Your recreation vehicle may be equipped a Truma® Combi furnace with supplementary
indirect water heating. Refer to the Truma Furnace/Water Heater section, along with the
manufacturer's owner manual, for important operating and safety information.

Faucets

The bathroom, kitchen and outside shower faucets operate much the same way as the faucets
in your home. Make sure there is sufficient water available and the 12-volt water pump is
turned ON before operating.
NOTE: There may be air in the water plumbing lines which needs to be
bled out before a steady stream of water comes from the faucet.

Bathroom Tub / Shower

Keep the water heater and holding tank capacities in mind when using the fresh water sys-
tem. The used water will drain through the plumbing pipes into the grey water holding tank.
Be sure the water heater is ON and had sufficient time to heat the water.
If dry camping, be sure your 12-volt water pump is ON.
Unlike your home, the recreational vehicle does not contain a water pressure balance valve.
If someone is using the shower, it is recommended that the fresh water system NOT BE
USED until they are finished.
