Rinse the system with fresh water
1. Fill the fresh water tank full of clean (potable) water. Use water from either a pressur-
ized source, or from a container (as detailed below).
a).
Filling from a pressurized source:
Set the
valves to the
POWER FILL TANK
setting.
Connect a non-toxic drinking hose to the city
water connection inlet. Connect the other
end of the hose to the pressurized water
source. Turn on the water source. When tank
is full, turn off the water

source, disconnect the hose from the water source first, then disconnect from the
utility panel.
DO NOT OVERFILL WATER TANK!
c).
Siphon filling from a water container:
Set the valves to the
SANITIZE
setting.
Insert a hose into the city water connection
inlet; place the other end of the hose in a
container of water. Turn the pump ON to
draw water into the tank. After the tank is
full, turn the pump OFF. Remove the hose
and the container. To aid in siphoning place
the container on a surface approximately (2)
feet off the ground. Drain valves must be
off.
DO NOT OVERFILL WATER TANK!
2. Power to water heater should be OFF (both switches: electric & LP GAS). When the
fresh water tank is full, set the valves to the
DRY CAMPING
setting. Turn the pump
ON to send water through the lines.
3. Run water through all faucets (hot & cold, includ-
ing outside shower) until chlorine smell is gone.
Turn faucets and outside shower off, turn pump
OFF.
4. Drain the fresh water system again (see
Draining the Fresh Water System)
. If the RV
has the full system canister water filter, remove the canister, reinstall the filter, and reat
-
tach the canister.
5.
Refill the fresh water tank with fresh water again and when water heater is full of water,
turn the water heater power ON. Refer to Step 13 for instructions on refilling the fresh
water tank.
Lingering Chlorine Taste:
If a chlorine taste lingers in the water, flush the water system
with a solution consisting of one-quart vinegar to five gallons of clean water. Re-flush as
necessary. The vinegar solution may damage the water heater or the water filter, so both must
be bypassed again before performing this operation.
Follow the steps outlined in
Draining the Fresh Water System
with one exception, do not
drain the water heater. Do not remove the water heater drain plug.
For the
full system canister
water filter, remove the canister, take out the filter, and then
re-attach the empty canister.
After draining the system
1. Water heater power should still be OFF (both switches: electric and LP Gas).
2. Put the vinegar solution into the fresh water tank; set the valves to the
SANITIZE
set-
ting. Attach a hose to the city water fill inlet. Put the other end of the hose in a container
with the vinegar solution. Turn the pump ON. The solution will be drawn into the
