Fresh Water System
Cockpit Shower Operation
To use a shower, make sure the Fresh Water switch
is on, then open the shower compartment cover
and pull the shower head out. Activate the valve
on the shower head to turn the water on. To con-
serve water, use the valve to turn the water on
and o as you shower.
Fresh Water Washdown
A quick-release fresh water washdown hose
connector is located on the starboard aft side
of the cockpit. The connector has an automatic
valve that is always closed until the washdown
hose is connected. The hose requires a special
tting that snaps into the connector and activates
the automatic valve. The cover on the connector
should always be closed to keep the connector
clean when the washdown hose is not attached.
Contact your dealer for information on replacement
ttings and hoses.
Make sure the Fresh Water switch is on before us-
ing the washdown hose.
7.3 Fresh Water System Maintenance
Information supplied with water system compo-
nents by the equipment manufacturers is included
with this manual. Refer to this information for
additional operation and service data.
Routine Maintenance
The following items should be done routinely to
maintain your fresh water system:
• Periodically remove and clean the water strainer
located near the intake side of the fresh water
pump. To clean the strainer, make sure the
Fresh Water switch is o. Rotate the strainer
bowl counterclockwise to release it. Remove
and clean the screen with fresh water. Lubricate
the O-ring lightly with Teon or silicone grease
and reinstall the strainer bowl.
• Remove the lter screens from spray heads
and eliminate any accumulation of debris. A
build up of debris can cause the pump to cycle
excessively.
• Periodically spray the fresh water pump and
metal components with a metal protectant.
• The batteries must be properly maintained and
charged. Operating the pressure pump from a
battery with a low charge could lead to pump
failure.
