City Water Hookup
The city water hook-up is located on the side of the
trailer. For consistent water flow and plumbing line
safety, an in-line regulator limits pressure to 50 PSI�
Use a tasteless, odorless, and non-toxic high-pressure
hose of at least 1/2 in� diameter designed for RV use�
The city water inlet is a standard garden hose thread�
We suggest you carry two lengths of hose in order to
reach hookups farther away than normal, plus, to have
a spare�
After hooking up the hose and turning on the city
water valve provided in the park, slowly open a faucet�
There will be a lot of spurts and sputtering until all
the air is expelled from the trailer system� If the water
heater is empty, it will take some time before all the air
is expelled and a steady flow of water occurs at the
faucet. Once a steady flow is achieved at one faucet
the others should be opened long enough to expel the
air in the lines going to them�
Your plumbing system has a built-in pressure regulator
to protect your lines and faucets from extremely high
pressures on some city water systems�
Exterior Shower
Your Airstream is equipped with a lockable exterior
door that allows for the bathrooms shower head to
be passed through� Be sure to shut and lock the door
when not in use�

Shoreline Power Supply
The power cord hookup is located on the roadside of
the trailer� The power cord can be stored in the top of
the LP tank cover compartment� The power cord is
used to plug the trailer into a City Power Service�
Your Airstream is equipped with a SmartPlug power
inlet located on the road side of the travel trailer�
SmartPlug inlets offer superior performance and ease
of use� A few features of the SmartPlug include:
• Eliminates Overheating - Increased pin & clip surface
area greatly improves electrical conductivity during
high amperage demand�
• Ease of Use - No twist required, the unique plug
body shape and push-in design means it only goes in
the right way every time - even in the dark!
• Multi-Point Locking System - Side clips lock the plug
securely into the inlet which eliminates any stress on
the pins from movement of the power cord�
• Weatherproof Seals - Multi-fin silicone gaskets
installed in the inlet cover and interior of the plug
body eliminates moisture penetration�
The SmartPlug incorporates a reverse polarity feature
which will include a series of light codes to let you
know the condition of the power coming from the
campsite power pedestal� Please refer to the provided
SmartPlug owner's manual for more information on
reverse polarity and the light codes�
Many campgrounds provide less than 30-amp service
and your hookup may blow their fuse or circuit breaker�
If this happens, reduce the load and replace the fuse or
reset the breaker�
120-Volt Outlet
An outlet for a 120 volt receptacle is located on the
curbside of the travel trailer and is labeled for your
convenience� The trailer must be plugged into a
shoreline power supply for the outlet to operate�
