Connect a vinyl hose to the inlet valve on the sewer board place the other end of the hose into a gallon of
freshwater system antifreeze. NOTE: Do not use automotive antifreeze; use only antifreeze approved for
RV applications. Otherwise, damage to the systems being protected may result.
Turn "on" the water pump to start the flow of antifreeze. Turn "on" each faucet, one at a time, including
the kitchen faucet, bath faucet, inside and outside showers and allow pure antifreeze to run through that
piping. Let about one cup drop into the drains to protect the traps.
When all the antifreeze is withdrawn from the bottle, disconnect the vinyl hose from the inlet valve on
the sewer board. (This may require more than one gallon of antifreeze).
When the winterize process is completed, turn the water pump "off". Store the vinyl hose for future use.

DE-WINTERIZING

To de-winterize your vehicle, open both of the low-point drains to allow the antifreeze solution to drain
from the water system.
Next, close the low-point drains and connect your vehicle to the city water system. Put water in the
freshwater tank and pump at least one gallon through the water pump to re move the antifreeze from
the water pump.
As in winterizing, open the kitchen faucet, bath faucet, inside and outside showers, turning "on" both
the hot- and the cold-water valves and flushing the stool until the antifreeze solution is flushed out of the
system and the water flow is clear.
Open the freshwater tank supply valve from the pump and the icemaker valve.
Be sure to close the fresh water tank drain valves to allow the tank to fill.

WHEEL CARE

The care and maintenance of your wheels are simple and require no special material or products; simply
follow the directions included in the Owner's Information Package for these. Timely care and cleaning
will maintain the appearance of these wheel products for many years.
