3. Disconnect the hose from the vehicle and

replace the cap on the connection.

SHOWER HOSE VACUUM BREAKER

After using the shower, you may notice water

dripping from the shower faucet assembly. The

dripping results when vacuum in the shower hose

(after closing the shower faucet) slowly releases

and allows water remaining in the hose to drain

down. This is a normal function of the shower

valve assembly and is not a leak or defect.

The International Association of Plumbing

and Mechanical Officials Standard TSC 21-85

(PAR. 4.3) states:

“Shower heads which incorporate shutoff

valves, shall have a minimum “drip rate” of one

(1) quart in thirty (30) minutes.”

The label shown below is attached on or near

the faucet to explain the operation of the vacuum

breaker assembly.

EXTERIOR SHOWER/

WA S H S TAT I O N

The exterior wash station feature allows you

to do things such as rinse off sand or salt after a

swim, rinsing off muddy boots, or bathing your

pet outside the coach. A water pump switch is

located near the shower faucet for your conve-

nience. It is located in the water system compart-

ment (service center) on the left side of the coach.

WASTE WATER SYSTEM

(HOLDING TANKS)

The drainage system is self-contained and

uses two separate holding tanks to contain the

waste water until it can be dumped at an appro-

priate waste water disposal site. This means you

can use the toilet, sinks and shower even in areas

where utility hookups are not available.

The black water holding tank contains the

sewage from the toilet. The gray water holding

tank contains the waste water from the galley

sink, bathroom lavatory and shower.

If items are placed into the shower

tub before shower valve vacuum

release is complete, they may become

wet.

For your protection, this faucet is equipped

with a vacuum breaker (back flow preventer)

to prevent contamination of your potable wa-

ter supply. The water in the hand held shower

hose will drain through this vacuum breaker

when the faucet is turned off. This is not a

leak. This drainage is inherent in the design of

the vacuum breaker, and is evidence that it is

functioning properly.
