Freshwater System
!
WARNING!
• ONLY use safe drinking (potable) water in your yacht’s freshwater system.
• ONLY use FDA approved "drinking water safe" hoses when filling the freshwater tank or
connecting to city water.
• NEVER use a common garden hose for drinking water.
• Read the Freshwater System
section in the Cruiser & Yacht
Owner’s Manual Supplement.
• Your yacht is equipped with a
pressure type (demand) freshwater (potable) system.
• Pressurize the freshwater system by either:
a. turning On the freshwater
pump switch (the battery
switch must also be On) or;
b. connecting to city water.
• For the locations of the freshwater pump switch and the
city water inlet, see the Component Locations section in
Chapter 2 of this Owner’s
Manual.
• Always turn Off the city water
supply on the dock before
leaving your yacht unattended.
• Turn Off the freshwater pump
switch when your yacht is not
in use or when the freshwater
tank is empty.
• Inspect and clean the freshwater filter often (located on the
freshwater pump).
• If your yacht is to be left unattended for a long period of
time, pump the freshwater tank
dry to prevent stored water
from becoming stagnant and
distasteful.
• If the freshwater system needs
to be disinfected, ask your
dealer about the treatments
available.
