All of the water should be drained from the fresh water system when the unit
is not in use for more than one week. For more detailed information regarding
the water pump, refer to the water pump manufacturer's brochure in your
Owner's Information Package.

City Water Hook-Up

When connecting your unit to city water, be certain to use a water hose
manufactured and labeled for potable water. This will ensure that the
hose will not alter the taste of the water. To hook the city water supply
to the unit, connect one end of the hose to the city water supply. This
will usually be a faucet or valve similar to your garden hose valve at
home.
Turn the city water supply on for a few seconds in order to clear the
line. Once the hose has been flushed, turn the supply off. Connect the
other end of the hose to the city water connections. Turn on the water
supply and open all of the faucets to clear the air from the lines in the
unit. Once air pockets have been purged from the water lines and water
flows freely, close all of the faucets. The city water supply is under
pressure; therefore the water pump is not necessary when connected to
city water. Once the city water fill valve is opened, water is supplied to
the fresh water system including the hot water heater, faucets, and stool.
To disconnect from the city water supply, close the valve and remove
the hose from the city water supply. Disconnect the hose from the city
water connection and store the hose in the water compartment.

Fresh Water Tank Fill

The fresh water tank is filled from the city water hook-up. The valve
located in the service compartment near the water hook-up determines
whether the city water is going through the water system or into the
fresh water tank. An additional way to fill the fresh water tank is with
the winterizing intake hose placed in a bucket of water (See Chapter 9).
Since there is not an automatic shut-off for the fresh water tank fill,
check the level from the monitor panel while filling the unit. The excess
water will be vented from an overflow vent pipe onto the ground when
the tank capacity has been reached. This pipe is installed in the fresh
water tank to prevent tank rupture from overfilling. All of the water
should be drained from the fresh water system when the unit is not in
use for more than one week. Whenever possible, drain the fresh water
tank before traveling. Water in the tank will reduce the carrying capacity
of the unit.
