Outside Shower (if so equipped)
A handheld shower assembly with both hot and cold water may be included for use outside
of your recreational vehicle.It may be located in a separate outside shower compartment or
at the utility center (if so equipped).
1. Be sure the water heater is ON and had sucient time to heat the water.
2. If dry camping, be sure the 12-volt water pump is ON.
3. Remove the handheld shower from its holder.
4. Turn ON the hot and cold faucet knobs, and adjust the water temperature as desired.
5. To activate the handheld shower turn ON the sprayer head attachment (some models).
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 storage. 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 and give the appearance that the hot water heater is not working properly.
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.
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 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.
Inspect your water heater monthly and have it serviced at least once a year by the manufac-
turer’s recommended service technician. If you have questions, contact your RV dealer, the
manufacturer, or Customer Service.
