PLUMBING SYSTEMS
2. Leave black water dump valve open while
flushing tank.
3. Attach a garden hose from a city water
hydrant to the Flushing System inlet fitting
in the water system compartment. (This inlet
is clearly marked separate from the City
Water inlet.)
4. Turn the water on to begin flushing; allow
water to run for about three minutes.
5. Disconnect hose from flushing system fitting
and close dump valves.
USING ON-SITE SEWER HOOK-UPS
The drain hose may remain attached to the
dump outlet and be routed out the bottom of the
compartment while the motor home is parked and
connected to an on-site sewage hook-up. The
center outlet section may be swiveled downward
for better hose alignment and drainage.
When using a sewer hook-up, keep the dump
valves closed until a tank becomes full or when
preparing to leave the site. This keeps the solids
in suspension, allowing them to be carried out
with the liquids when the dump valve is opened.
If the valve is left open, the liquids will drain off,
leaving solids in the tank. Should this accidental-
ly happen, disconnect the hose, fill the tank about
half full with water, and drive a few miles to dis-
lodge the solids. A few starts and stops will aid in
the process. Then reconnect the hose and drain in
the normal manner.
UTILITY LIGHT
A lamp is located up on the left sidewall to
provide light in the utility hook-up area.
The switch is located inside the shoreline
compartment on the left side of the coach.
WATER DRAIN VALVES
The water drain valves are used to drain water
from the water tank and the water supply lines
when preparing the motor home for storage or
when sanitizing the water system.
To Drain Tanks and Water Lines:
The water line drain valves are located in the
water center compartment on the driver side
toward the rear of the coach. Turn the valves as
indicated in the following illustration, according
to the type of valve installed.
