If equipped, water heaters can be used with electricity or gas, either independently or together. If a fault is detected with a water heater, a warning sign will appear. Information about the fault will be displayed in the RVMaster App. Figure 17: Tanks Screen The water screen displays water levels in your fresh, gray and black water tanks.
MOTORS SCREEN WARNING Before operating any motors, ensure that the area is free from obstacles and other hazards. Please ensure that any persons near the RV are free from danger of any moving parts. The motor screen provides access to operate any slides, awnings, bed-lifts or jacks available in the RV.
