Motorhome water systems
1. Drain down the system by opening the tank
drains and boiler/water system drain. (See
section 7.2 for water tank draining) Open all
taps to allow air into the system to enable the
water to drain more quickly.
2. Remove any water filters fitted, and replace
with a short length of hose or empty filter
cartridge (this will ensure the filter is not
affected by the sterilising fluid.
3. Fill the water system with sterilising fluid
mixed to the strength recommended by the
manufacture of the sterilising fluid. (check
that the solution at full strength appears at
all taps/showers). Allow to stand for the
recommended period of time.
4. Drain the system completely.
5. Thoroughly clean the outside of all taps/
connectors with a cloth soaked in the
disinfectant/sterilant.
6. Flush the system through with clean drinking
water until no traces of sterilising fluid can
be detected at any tap.
CAUTION: Never use the water heating system
when sterilising fluid is present. Doing so may
damage the system.
Lockable water filler inlet
Fresh Water Tank
Your motorhome is fitted with a water tank filled
from the outside via a lockable water filler cap.
When filling, use a hose manufactured from non
toxic material, to prevent tainting of the water.
Remember, if the water heater has been drained
it will require 8 litre (1.7 gal) of water to fill it.
Within the inlet is a 12V socket which can be
used to attach an external 12V filling pump
(pump not supplied).
Boiler / Water System Drain
The boiler / water drain valve is located in the
rear nearside bed base. To drain the system
rotate the Yellow handle to the position shown
