Microswitch Taps - Swift Vehicle Owner's Manual

Services
INTERNAL WATER TANK
(EXPORT MODELS ONLY - Sprite Europa,
Swift Charisma)
The internal water tank is configured
differently from the internal tanks found in
UK market caravans. Please observe the
following for correct operation.
Tank filling
Ensure the taps are closed, and that the
tank drain bung is in position. Also ensure
that the drain valve adjacent to the water
heater (see page 64) is in the closed
position. With the external pump submerged
in water in a suitable container, connect the
external pump to the connection point on the
outside of the caravan. The external pump
will run when the power is turned on at the
control panel, and water will flow into the
internal tank until either the tank overflows or
the external container is empty.
Drawing water from the tank
The micro switched taps (sink, vanity, and
shower mixer as appropriate) operate a
pump suspended in the internal water tank.
With the pump switch in the on position, and
the drain valve next to the water heater is
closed, opening the taps will energise the
pump in the tank and water will flow from the
opened tap.

Tank drain
At a point on the side of the tank close to
the floor, pipework from the tank passes
below floor level. A red stopper can be seen
if this pipework is located from below the
van. When the red stopper is removed from
the pipe, the tank will drain.

MICROSWITCH TAPS

The micro switch taps are used when the
water supply is not pressurised.
When the tap is turned on, the micro switch
(which is fitted inside the tap) activates the
pump to supply water.
Operation
Swivel the tap spout (a) to the desired
position over the sink, lift the control lever (b)
to activate the pump and allow water to flow
simultaneously. To adjust the temperature
swivel the lever (c) to the left or right as
shown below.
Note: Before commencing microswitch
replacement ensure instructions are read
through thoroughly. The entire process can
be completed without the need to remove
the tap from the worktop.
