Water pump switch (if so equipped)
The red water pump switch is located on the Monitor Panel, the Utility Center or both
(depending on your model). When the water pump switch is ON, the water pump will run
until it reaches 45 lbs. of pressure. It will recycle when pressure drops. The switch will light
up when it is turned ON. Turn the switch OFF when the water pump is not being used.
Water heater switches (if so equipped)
These red switches are located on the Monitor Panel. The “LP GAS” water heater switch
(12V) enables propane operation of the water heater. The “ELECTRIC” water heater switch
(120V) enables electric operation of the water heater. Normally both switches should be
turned on to provide the fastest hot water recovery time. The water heater can be operated
in electric only or gas only modes by pressing each switch independently. The switches will
light up when turned ON.
DSI FLT - Direct Spark Ignition Fault (if so equipped): This light located between the
water heater switches will indicate a problem with the LP portion of the water heater. When
the LP GAS switch is turned on, the light will blink quickly 3 times and the water heater will
ignite. The light will then remain off. If the light comes on and stays on, it indicates the gas
side of the water heater has not red and there is a problem with the igniter.
Fresh Water System
All water contains contaminant and mineral particles that can cause fresh water system
odors. Untreated well water is a major source of water system odors. The fresh water (or
potable water) system needs periodic sanitization and winterization to take care of all the
components within the plumbing system and help discourage the growth of bacteria and
other organisms that can contaminate the water supply.
Fresh Water Holding Tank
There may be several ways to ll the fresh water tank depending on the model. For details
of each method, refer to the Fresh Water Connections or the Utility Center (if so equipped)
sections. There are plastic overow tubes plumbed into the fresh water holding tank. They
allow water to ow out of the water tank (refer to the City Water Fill section). Occasionally,
you may see water coming from the overow tubes when the fresh water holding tank is
lled. This is normal, and is caused by external circumstances, including the recreation
vehicle being parked on an incline, or the motion caused by starting or stopping the recreation
vehicle during travel.
DO NOT drink water deemed microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality..
Never travel with full fresh, black or grey water holding tanks..
