Freshwater System; Transom Shower (If Equipped) - Bayliner 305 Owner's Manual

Chapter 6: Plumbing

Freshwater System

• Only use safe drinking (potable) water in your boat's freshwater system.
• Only use an FDA approved, white 'drinking water safe' hose to fill the freshwater tank.
• NEVER use a common garden hose for drinking water.
• Read the Freshwater
System section in the
Cruiser & Yacht
Owner's Manual.
• Your boat is equipped
with a pressure type
(demand) freshwater
(potable) system.
• Pressurize the system by
turning On the freshwa-
ter pump switch.
• See the Locations sec-
tion of this Supplement
for the location of the
freshwater pump switch.
• Since the freshwater
pump requires DC
power, the battery
switch must also be
turned On for the pump
to work.
• Turn Off the freshwater
pump switch when the
boat is not in use or
when the freshwater
tank is empty.
• Inspect and clean the
fresh-water filter often
(located on the freshwa-
ter pump).
• If your boat is to be left
unattended for a long
period of time, pump the
freshwater tank dry to
prevent stored water
from becoming stag-
nant and distasteful.
• If the freshwater system
needs to be disinfected,
ask your dealer about
treatments available for
your boat's system.

Transom Shower (If Equipped)

• Read the manufacturer's instructions before using the transom shower for the first time.
• The water pump switch must be turned On before using the transom shower.
