Water heater bypass
Use the factory installed water heater bypass,
available in most floor plans, to avoid filling
the entire water heater with RV antifreeze.
Fig. 7.5 Water heater bypass
To bypass the water heater (does not include
Atwood XLT water heaters) close valves A
and B, and open the mixer valve (valve C).
For normal camping usage of the water
heater, reverse these instructions.
To bypass Atwood XLT water heaters: turn
the yellow handle, located at the back of the
water heater, to the “bypass” position.
Water heater switch (optional)
The "propane GAS" water heater switch
enables propane operation of the water
heater. The "ELECTRIC" water heater switch
enables electric operation of the water heater.

A handheld shower assembly with both hot
and cold water is available for washing or
rinsing outside the park trailer. Be sure the
water heater is ON and had sufficient time to
heat the water.
Open the door with the
key and allow it to
hinge down.
1. If dry camping, be
sure the 12-volt
water pump is ON.
2. Remove the hand
held showerhead
and hose from its
holder and turn ON
the sprayer head
valve.
3. Open the faucet knobs and adjust them to
the desired temperature.
To cease operation, close the faucet knobs
and the showerhead valve. After the water
has been allowed to drain from the
showerhead, replace it in the outside shower
compartment. Any remaining water in the
shower hose will drip or run out of the vacuum
breaker; this is not a leak but performs as
intended. Water will drain out along outer
edge of the ABS plastic box.
The showerhead can be removed to drain the
hose faster. If you choose to remove the
showerhead to drain the hose, reassemble it
for storage. Coil the hose and arrange it with
the showerhead inside the faucet assembly.
Make sure that the hose is not being pinched
and the showerhead is not being damaged
when the door is closed. For sanitary reasons,
keep the exterior shower compartment door
closed when not in use.

AUCETS
The faucets operate much the same way as
the faucets in your home. Make sure there is
sufficient water available and, if dry camping,
the 12-volt water pump is turned ON before
operating. To open the faucets, turn the hot
and cold knobs ON and adjust the
temperature to your comfort level. Close the
faucets when a sufficient amount of water is
released.
The shower faucet (if so equipped) requires a
vacuum breaker when the shower hose and
head are used. There are two purposes for
this breaker:
□
To prevent siphoning water through the
hose from another fixture.
□
To prevent water from being contained in
the hose.

Shower
Water temperatures over 125°F (49°C)
can cause severe burns instantly or death
from scalds; therefore, be careful when
using hot water. Always test the water
temperature before showering or washing.
