FRESH WATER SYSTEM
Fresh Water Tank Capacity
The fresh water system provides water to the
galley sink, shower, bathroom lavatory, toilet and
water heater. Water may be supplied by either of
two sources:
- a water tank located within the motor home,
or
- any external water source to which the motor
home may be connected, known as "city
water".

Connection:
1. Attach a hose from a city water faucet to the
city water connector in the water center on
the left (driver) side of your coach.
2. Turn the water center diverter valve to the
WATER TANK FILL position as shown in

the overflow vent tube beneath the coach.

When your coach is not connected to a city
water supply, water is supplied from the fresh
water tank by a water system demand pump. A
demand pump is designed to run only when a fau-
cet is turned on and to shut off soon after the fau-
cet is turned off. When you turn a faucet on, the
pump will begin to run, and it will continue to run
as long as the faucet is open.
The pump is self-priming and will run briefly
to build up line pressure when the Water Pump
Switch is first turned on. See "Initial Water Line
Priming" for instructions on using the water sys-
tem for the first time after a storage period or if
the tank and water lines have been drained.
Pump Strainer Filter
The pump is equipped with a reusable strainer
filter to capture any possible tank borne particles
that could damage pump components.
NOTE: We recommend that you check and clean
