The shower head may be removed from the hose so that
it will drain faster. If you remove the shower head, be sure to reas-
semble it prior to storage.
To turn o the water, close the hot/cold control (faucet) knobs. The lever on the
shower head will not completely stop the ow of water; this is intentional to allow for drain-
ing. After the water has been allowed to drain from the shower head, return it to the outside
shower compartment. Any remaining water in the shower hose will drip or run out; this is
not a leak but performs as intended. If you are dry camping, turn the water pump OFF.
Turning o the water with the shower head lever can also create a condition where the hot
and cold water will mix through the outside shower faucet, thereby reducing the temperature
of the hot water. It can appear as though the hot water heater is not working properly.
When putting the shower assembly back into the storage
compartment, make sure the hose is not pinched or the shower head
is positioned in a way it can be damaged.
Faucets
The bathroom, kitchen and outside shower faucets operate much the same way as the faucets
in your home. Make sure there is sucient water available and the 12-volt water pump is
turned ON before operating.
There may be air in the water plumbing lines which needs to
be bled out before a steady stream of water comes from the faucet.
Bathroom Tub / Shower
Keep the water heater and holding tank capacities in mind when using the fresh water sys-
tem. The used water will drain through the plumbing pipes into the grey water holding tank.
Be sure the water heater is ON and had sucient time to heat the water.
If dry camping, be sure your 12-volt water pump is ON.
Unlike your home, the recreational vehicle does not contain a water pressure balance valve.
If someone is using the shower, it is recommended that the fresh water system
until they are nished.
Water temperatures over 125°F (49°C) can cause severe burns instantly there-
fore, be careful when using hot water.
