• Read the Freshwater System section in the Cruiser & Yacht Owner's Manual.
• Your boat is equipped with a pressure type (demand) freshwater (potable) system.
• This system can be pressurized by turning on the water pump.
• See the Component Location section of this Supplement for the location of the water pump switch.
• Since the water pump requires DC power, the battery switch must be in the "1", "2" or "BOTH" position for the
pump to work.
Observe the following about the freshwater system:
• Turn Off the water pump when the boat is not in use or the water tank is empty.
• Inspect and clean the water filter often (located on the water pump).
• When your boat is to be left unattended for long periods of time, pump the water tank dry to prevent stored water
from becoming stagnant and distasteful.
• If the freshwater system needs to be disinfected, ask your dealer about treatments available for your boat's system.
