Exterior Operation: Awning, Electrical, Water, Sewer
-
Turn the house battery switch to the ‘on’ position. This switch is located just inside, to the left of the side entry steps. The house battery powers all of the 12v appliances; refrigerator, awning, water pump, heat, ceiling vent fans.
The house battery charges while the truck is running, while the generator is running, and while the RV is plugged into power. Leave the batter in the ‘on’ position for the duration of your trip. Only turn it ‘off’ when storing the RV.
-
The 30 amp electrical cord is located in the rear driver-side compartment of the RV. Feed the cord down through the bottom floor and plug directly into the 30 amp connection at your campsite.
If you’re using a standard 120v plug, use the provided adapter. Please note, using the 120v adapter will reduce your power supply in half. You will need to limit the number of appliances in use at one time. For example, the air conditioning will use 90% of the available power.
-
Begin with the truck off, house battery switch in the ‘on’ position, and hold down the ‘extend’ or ‘retract’ button located adjacent to the side entry stairs.
Be sure to keep the door pulled inward, out of the path of the extending or retracting awning arm.
Please remember to bring the awning in anytime poor weather is approaching, anytime you’re away from the RV, or when you head in for the evening.
-
Please first check the breaker switch located on the electrical outlet where you plugged in outside at your campsite or destination. If that breaker switch is in the correct position, please check the RV breaker switches located inside the RV. This panel is most commonly found at the base of the rear bed.

If your RV is equipped with the Anderson Valve System. From one point, located at the rear of the RV on the driver-side, you can attach the fresh water hose and fill the fresh water tank or have the water flow directly into the RV water lines from the city water connection.
FRESH WATER TANK
To fill the fresh water tank, attach the fresh water hose, turn the dial to ‘Tank Fill,’ and turn on the water supply. Once the tank is full, turn off the water supply, and rotate the dial to ‘Dry Camping.’
CITY WATER CONNECTION
To use the city water connection for a constant flow of water, attach the fresh water hose and rotate the dial to ‘City Water.’ Turn on the water supply.
-
When using the shower and sinks within the RV, that water will collect in the 35 gallon gray water tank. When using the toilet within the RV, that water will collect in the 35 gallon black water tank.
To empty those tanks, connect the included sewer hose onto the black sewer pipe extending out from the bottom of the RV (toward the rear on the driver’s side). The orange end of the accordion sewer hose will connect to the end of the black pipe. The other end of the hose extends into the sewer opening where you’re emptying the holding tanks. Once the hose is secured tightly on the four prongs, and the hose is in place in the sewer opening, pull the black valve to empty the black tank. Pull the gray valve to empty the gray holding tank. Once the tanks are emptied, close the two valves and stow the sewer hose.
