3. Fill the tank as desired. The size of the tank will vary based on your unit's floor plan.
It is also equipped with an overflow outlet. Make sure that you do not leave the tank
unattended while filling it. Do not overfill the tank.
Caution: Be careful not to overfill the tank. It can pressurize the tank, causing
leakage and water damage and void the warranty. DO NOT leave the tank
unattended while filling.

12 VOLT DC DEMAND PUMP

To utilize water from your water tank, you need to have 12 volt DC power to operate the
demand pump. Energy for the pump is supplied by the auxiliary battery or converter.
Depending on your trailer model, the demand pump will be located under the bed, in a
cupboard, under the unit or under the sink. The switch to operate the pump is located on the
monitor panel or a wall near the pump.
Refer to instructions supplied by the pump manufacturer with your trailer. If you have
questions, consult with your independent, authorized dealer and/or visit the manufacturer's
website at www.shurflo.com.
.
NOTE: The water pump switch should be in the off position when the camper is left
unattended for any amount of time. If something would happen to the water system,
this will help limit water damage to a smaller area.

WATER PRESSURE REGULATOR

Excessive pressure from water supply systems may be encountered in some parks,
especially in mountain regions. Water pressure regulators are available to protect your
system against such high pressure. A regulator of this type is recommended to prevent
damage to the plumbing system or components.
Caution: Not using a water pressure regulator when using city water may cause the
o-rings to blow. It is advisable to always use a water pressure regulator when using
the city water connection.

LP Gas Connections and Start Up

I
WARNING: LP gas can be extremely dangerous. Make sure that you
read, understand and follow all information supplied in this manual
and all component part manufacturers manuals before operating your
LP gas system.
After the camper is completely set up and you are prepared for camping enjoyment, follow
these steps for LP gas operation.
1. Close all the burner valves, controls and pilot light valves.
2. Open the main valve on the LP gas container slowly to avoid a fast rush through the
excess flow valve causing a "gas freeze." If you experience a gas "freeze-up," close
the main valve and wait 15 minutes before trying again.
