To Clean Pump Strainer
•
Be sure all water pump switches are OFF.
•
Twist the inlet cap (bowl) counter-clockwise
to unscrew from the strainer assembly.
•
Remove the bowl and pull the strainer screen
out of the bowl to tap out any particles and
rinse clean.
•
Insert the strainer screen back into the bowl,
then screw the bowl back onto the strainer
assembly.
NOTE: You must also empty the strainer when
winterizing your coach to avoid water
freezing and cracking the filter bowl.
Water Pump Switch
The water pump switch is located on the
systems monitor panel. (Some models may have
an additional switch in the water service center or
within the bathroom area for your convenience).
While the switch is "ON", the pump will
automatically supply water as it is needed.
We recommend that you turn the water pump
switch off whenever you will be away from the
vehicle or not using the water system. In time, a
slow leak in a faucet could drain the water tank,
fill the holding tank, and discharge the house
batteries.

steady stream of water (close cold water first).
Leave hot water faucets on until they also
deliver a steady stream of water. This will
ensure that the water heater is filled with
water.
7. Check to be sure pump stops soon after all
faucets have been closed.
8. Pump is now ready for automatic operation.
Pump will start when a faucet is opened and
stop when the faucet is closed.
DISINFECTING YOUR FRESH
WATER SYSTEM
To assure complete disinfection of the potable
water system, it is recommended that the
following procedure be followed on a new
system, one that has not been used for a period of
time, or one that could have become
contaminated.
This procedure is also recommended before
long periods of storage, such as over winter.
Models with City Water Tank Fill
The fresh water tank must be filled through
the city water connection in the water center.
These models require temporarily connecting
an external cartridge-type water filter assembly
