Water SyStemS - IntroDuctIon

This section contains
information about the operation
and care of various water
system equipment found in
the motorhome. Optional
water equipment will also be
discussed, so not all information
may be applicable to each
motorhome. More detailed
information with CAUTION
or WARNING instructions for
various equipment, other than what is found in
this section, can be found in the OEM manuals
in the owner information box.
It is hard to imagine how much water is used
by the average person. Newcomers to a self-
contained motorhome soon discover water does
not last long unless consumption is drastically
reduced. For example, less water can be used
for showering if the shower is turned off while
soaping down, then turned back on to rinse.
This way a good shower uses a couple gallons
of water or less. There is plenty of water to meet
personal needs once habits are adjusted.
Fresh Water System:
The fresh water system
consists of a fresh water
tank, water pump, gravity fill
connection, water filter and a
city/fresh water connection. Use
a water hose that is marked for potable water use
only. Proper care of the hose is necessary. After
each use, drain the water hose. Roll the hose up
onto the hose reel. Attach the plug to keep out
insects and debris.

Waste Water System:
The waste water system consists of a waste
holding tank (grey water), sewage holding tank
(black water), flush system, toilet and drains.
WARNING
Water is electrically conductive. DO
NOT use any electrically powered item
or electrical outlet that may be exposed
to a water source. Such use can result in
a serious shock, causing injury or death.

Measurements & Calibration
The motorhome
is equipped with
two monitor panels
to aid in managing
the storage tanks.
One monitor panel
is located on the
Systems Control
Center in the hallway
area. The other
monitor panel is located
in the roadside water
service center. The
switch marked Test is a
momentary switch which
requires being held down
while testing the level of
the storage tanks. Read the scale for the desired
040400
storage tank that is being monitored. Each scale
uses colored lights along with a corresponding
scale reading. The lights and scale are as
follows:
LP Tank and Fresh Tank
Red = Empty
Red = 1/3 Full
Yellow = 2/3 Full
Green = Full
Fresh Water Fill
When connecting the motorhome to fresh
water, use a hose manufactured and labeled
"for potable water." This ensures that the hose
will not flavor the water. It is recommended to
install a pressure regulator on the water line. On
hot days the hose may expand and burst from
excessive pressure within the hose.
1. Make sure the fresh water tank
drain valve, located in a curbside
compartment, is in the closed position.
2. Install a pressure regulator on the
City/Fresh Water Fill valve located in
the roadside water service center.

3. Connect one end the hose labeled for
potable water to the pressure regulator.
