FRESH WATER SYSTEMS

The water system built into your motorhome provides full service 

similar to the system in your home.  A 12-Volt self-priming pump 

draws pressurized water from the fresh water tank to all cold 

faucets and the water heater.  An automatic pressure switch 

located in the water pump maintains a positive line pressure 

between 20 to 30 psi.  The fresh water tank is in a compartment 

below the raised floor in the rear of the coach, this is a heated 

compartment. The gray water tanks are located in the cabinet next 

to the sink, these are portable water tanks.  The portable black 

water tank is part of the cassette toilet and it can be accessed 

through the toilet door on the outside of the coach.

FURNACE

Please refer to the manufacturer’s operating instructions for further information. 

Your vehicle is equipped with a Truma VarioHeat 11,500 BTU 

furnace. It is a LP gas and 12 volt appliance. The furnace is 

located under the driver side cabinet behind the grey tanks. To 

access the the furnace, remove the grey water tanks and the cover 

panel behind the grey tanks. The thermostat is controlled by the 

touchscreen control panel.  

1.  Ensure that there is propane supplied to the coach.
2.  Ensure there is 12V power to the coach.
3.  Turn on the Truma control from the icon on the touchscreen, 

adjust the temperature by moving the dot around the scale.

4.  When you start the furnace, the furnace fan will run to clear 

the system, then the flame will ignite and start the heating 

process. The furnace will maintain the desired temperature.  

(see Truma VarioHeat manual for setting information)

5.  If the furnace fails to ignite the first time you turn it on it 

will try to ignite another three times . If the furnace does 

not ignite, it will go into lock out mode.  Wait five minutes 

then turn off  the battery switch and turn it back on. This will 

reset the furnace, turn the furnace on at the touchscreen 

and set the temperature.

6.  The furnace has a communication module, a 2amp fuse and 

the CP plus control located in the small cabinet next to the 

sink. The CP communicates with the touchscreen through 

the bridge module. The CP plus panel will show faults and 

give you a code for troubleshooting.
