12.1.9 EXTERNAL WATER SUPPLY
The external water source will supply your water
system with water at city pressure when the water

b. Attach garden hose to city water connec-
tion. Turn the water selector valve to city
water.
c. Turn on external water supply.
WATER CONNECTION
WATER HEATER BYPASS VALVE
IMPORTANT
After connecting to the external water supply, open
the faucets slowly and cautiously. Air trapped in the
line can cause the water to splash into the sink.
You may want to drape a wash cloth over the faucet
to prevent excessive splashing.
2. Turn the water heater by-pass valves to
normal use to allow water to enter the hot water
heater.
Water from the external supply is prevented from
entering the fresh water tank by means of a check-
valve in the water pump.
By-Pass Position
Normal Position
IMPORTANT
Some campgrounds have an excessively high water
pressure which can cause problems. It is a good
idea to get a pressure reducer from your RV center
and attach it to your incoming external water supply
hose to ensure safe pressure for your unit.
3. Disconnecting:
a. Turn off the external water tap.
b. Relieve water pressure on the line by
opening a faucet.
c. Disconnect hose from the motorhome.
d. Replace the protective plug back over the
water connection.
12.2 WASTE SYSTEMS
12.2.1 GREY WATER - WASTE
HOLDING TANK
The drainage from the kitchen sinks, bathtub and
shower pan is collected in a separate grey water
holding tank. This tank has its own dump valve but
ties into the same termination valve outlet as the
waste holding tank.
IMPORTANT
If grey water holding tank is allowed to overfill, the
overflow may back up through the shower drain.
12.2.2 BLACK WATER - WASTE
HOLDING TANK
The black water holding tank collects all the waste
from the toilet and vanity sink. Before using your
waste holding tank, deoderize it by adding one
gallon water and a commercial holding tank
deoderizer through the toilet.
IMPORTANT
If holding tank is allowed to overfill, the overflow may
back up through the toilet drain.
