Outside Convenience Center - Highland Ridge RV 2015 Owner's Manual

SECTION 8 - PLUMBING SYSTEMS
Dry camping
You can gravity fill the fresh water system if you do not have access to city water;
however, allow extra time to fill the fresh water system if you are using this
method.
Follow the steps listed above; however, at step 3 put the other end of the non-toxic
drinking water hose into your container of fresh water, and turn ON the water
pump (instead of turning ON the water at the water source.) When the fresh water
tank is full, shut OFF the water pump and disconnect the non-toxic drinking water
hose.
NOTE: Refer to the valve system diagram for sanitizing the tank.
The fresh water connection should be unplugged (i.e., the non-toxic drinking water
hose disconnected) when the RV is unattended for any amount of time. If
something would happen to the water system, this may help limit water damage to
a smaller area.

UTSIDE ONVENIENCE
Refer to the following steps to operate the outside convenience center.
steps can be used when there is no city water connection available, or when
sanitizing your fresh water system (refer to Sanitizing the Fresh Water System).
We recommend that you use a non-toxic drinking water hose dedicated only to
supplying the RV with fresh water (to reduce the chance of contamination, prevent
the non-toxic drinking water hose from coming into contact with the ground).
