FILLING YOUR ONBOARD WATER
TANK
Your onboard water tank can be filled in
two ways:
1. Direct connection via a hose pipe
Connect your hose pipe to a suitable
water source.
Unlock the water filler cap on the
motorhome and insert the open end of
the hose pipe.
Open the tap on the water source and
alow the water to flow into the tank.
2. Using a water container and pump
An external submersible pump is
provided with your motorhome.
The pump should be placed into the
water container, ensuring that it is fully
submersed, and then the power
connection made to the electrical outlet
point on the motorhome. Next, turn the
pump switch in the motorhome to
‘External’.
The external pump will then run and
pump water into the onboard water tank.
WARNING: With either method used
there is no automatic switch off. Monitor
the water level as the tank fills using the
water level guage. Once full you must
shut off the supply of water.
DRAINING DOWN YOUR WATER
SYSTEM
1. It is essential that you drain down your
motorhome water system when it is
not in use. This is most important
during winter months to protect
against frost damage.
2. Disconnect the water pump and
switch off power supply.
3. Remove the water heater fuse from
the switch spur and store in a safe
place.
4. Open the safety drain valve on the
water heater located next to the water
heater.
5. Open all taps and remove all plugs
from sinks and showers. Lever
operated taps should have the lever
put into the up position.
6. Open the drain outlets on the outside
of your motorhome.
7. If an inboard water tank is fitted ensure
that the drain tap on the tank is open.
8. Adjust the level of the motorhome to
ensure that the drain outlet is at the
lowest point of the motorhome. This
will aid the flow of water to ensure all
water is drained off.
9. After 30 minutes level the motorhome
and prepare it for storage if necessary.
