HOWER
A handheld shower assembly with both hot
and cold water is available for washing or
rinsing outside the RV.
1. Be sure the water heater is ON and had
sufficient time to heat the water.
2. If dry camping, be sure the 12-volt water
pump is ON.
3. Open the outside shower compartment
door.
4. Remove the hand held showerhead and
hose from its holder.
5. Turn ON the hot and cold faucet knobs,
and adjust the water temperature as
desired.
6. To activate the hand held shower turn ON
the sprayer head attachment (some
models. Open the faucet knobs and adjust
them to the desired temperature.
To cease operation, close the faucet knobs.
After the water has been allowed to drain from
the shower head, replace it in the outside
shower compartment. Any remaining water in
the shower hose will drip or run out; this is not
a leak but performs as intended.
The showerhead can be removed to drain the
hose faster. If you choose to remove the
showerhead to drain the hose, reassemble it
for storage. Coil the hose and arrange it with
the showerhead inside the faucet assembly.
Make sure that the hose is not being pinched
and the showerhead is not being damaged
when the door is closed.

HOWER
The shower faucet (if so equipped) requires a
vacuum breaker when the shower hose and
head are used. There are two purposes for
this breaker:
□ To prevent siphoning water through the
hose from another fixture.
□ To prevent water from being contained in
the hose.
The
showerhead
DOES
complete shut-off valve (the complete shut-off
is at the faucet). The showerhead may drip
slightly in the OFF position after use; this is
normal and does not indicate a leak or defect.
There may be air in the plumbing lines that
will need to be bled out before a steady
stream of water comes from the faucet.
The bathing facilities in your RV function
similar to those in your home. Prepare the
bath or shower curtains (if so equipped) to
prevent water from spilling onto the floor.
Keep the water heater and holding tank
capacities in mind when using the fresh water
system. The used water will drain through the
plumbing pipes into the grey water holding
tank.
1. Be sure the water heater is ON and had
sufficient time to heat the water.
2. If dry camping, be sure your 12-volt water
pump is ON.
3. Adjust the hot and cold faucets to the
desired temperature before bathing.
4. To conserve water while showering, wet
down and turn the water OFF while you
use soap, then rinse.
