MOTORHOME SYSTEMS
LP GAS SYSTEM
Your motorhome is equipped with a Liquid Propane (LP) gas system that provides fuel to the appliances (refrigerator, cook top, water
heater and furnace).
The LP storage tank is located between the hitch plates underneath and at the rear of the vehicle. The LP gas regulator is located in
front of LP storage tank attached to the rear frame cross member.

Propane fuel is stored in a liquid state under extreme high pressure. As fuel is used, propane vapor passes from the tank through the
regulator into the gas lines and eventually to the appliances. Although the propane system has undergone extensive testing for leaks,
the system’s connections and fittings are subject to road vibrations and should be checked regularly for possible leaks.
Propane fuel is extremely flammable, colorless, heavier than air and smells like rotten eggs.
The main shut-off valve to supply propane to the coach is operated by electrical switch located in the driver side component
compartment (ensure this switch is on before operating appliances.)
LP gas regulators must always be installed with the diaphragm vent facing downward. Regulators that are not in compartments have
been equipped with a protective cover. Make sure that the regulator vent faces downward and that the cover is kept in place to
minimize vent blockage that could result in excessive gas pressure causing fire or explosion.

WARNING: Do not bring or store LP gas containers, gasoline or other flammable liquids inside the
vehicle because a fire or explosion may result. LP gas containers should not be placed or stored inside
the vehicle as LP gas containers are equipped with safety devices that relieve excessive pressure by
discharging gas into the atmosphere.
WARNING: It is not safe to use cooking appliances for comfort heating. Cooking appliances need
fresh air for safe operation. Unlike homes, the amount of oxygen supply in the unit is limited due to the
size of the vehicle. Proper ventilation when using the cooking appliance(s) will avoid dangers of
asphyxiation.
WARNING: Do not use portable fuel burning equipment, including wood and charcoal grills and
stoves inside the motorhome. The use of this equipment inside the recreational vehicle may cause fire or
asphyxiation.

19

DO NOT FILL LP CONTAINER TO MORE THAN 80% CAPACITY. Overfilling the LP gas container
can result in uncontrolled gas flow, which can cause fire or explosion. A properly filled container will contain
approximately 80% of its volume of LP gas.
If you smell gas:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.

Extinguish any open flames, pilot lights and all smoking materials.
Do not touch any electrical switches.
Shut off the gas supply at the tank valve or gas supply connection.
Open all the doors and other ventilating openings.
Leave the area until the odour clears and you are sure there is no further risk to you.
Have the gas system checked and leakage source corrected before using again.

LP OFF/ON VALVE:
The LP switch is located in the Driver’s side generator/component compartment.
. This valve, when open, allows LP to flow to the coach.

LP FILL VALVE & LP BLEEDER VALVE
The bleeder valve allows pressure to vacate the LP tank when 80% full.
The fill and bleeder valve are located in the no- locking driver’s side horizontal compartment.. This valve, covered by the yellow end
cap allows you to fill the LP tank to 80% capacity.

20

LP TANK GAUGE
This gauge indicates how full the LP tank is. The LP gage is located on the kitchen end gable part of the monitor panel system, Tank
#8.

HOW TO USE THE LP APPLIANCES:
Turn your red disconnect breaker to the on position (located behind the small door above the auxiliary batteries). Turn your LP on /
off valve to the on position as mentioned above (located in the driver side generator/component compartment).

COOK TOP:
The vehicle is equipped with a two-burner flush mount cook top located in the kitchen counter top.
1) Lift the glass cover.
2) Turn the selected burner knob to the ignite (flame) position. This allows propane to flow to the selected burner.
3) Depress the middle ignition spark knob until the burner ignites.
4) Turn the burner knob to adjust the flame to the appropriate heat setting.
5) When you have finished using the cook top, turn the burner knob to the off position allow the burner to cool before closing the
cook top cover.
Please consult the stovetop owner’s manual for complete operating and cleaning instructions.

21

FURNACE:
Your vehicle is equipped with a 16,000 BTU Suburban LP gas Auto Ignition Furnace. The furnace is located on the bottom right hand
side of the galley. The thermostat control is located on the diver side rear wall panel next to the driver rear window.
1) Ensure that there is propane supplied to the coach.
2) Ensure there is 12V power to the coach.
3) Turn the thermostat to the on position and set the thermostat to the desired temperature.
4) The Furnace will auto ignite and cycle through fan and heating. The furnace will cycle keeping the desired temperature.

Note: When the furnace is not in use, turn the thermostat switch to the off position.

REFRIGERATOR:
Your vehicle is equipped with a Dometic two way fridge/freezer (LP gas & AC).
1) To turn the fridge on, use the mode button to select your power source (LP gas or AC -Auto). Then select your desired level of
coolness (this may vary slightly with each fridge and weather condition).
2) DC or 12 volt is used for the fridge controls but is not one of the cooling methods.
3) The Auto is recommended when the vehicle is operating off of a 120 volt power source (shore power or generator).

NOTE: For the best cooling results your vehicle should be level and the exterior refrigerator vents free from
obstructions. Please consult your Dometic fridge-operating manual for complete operating and maintenance
instructions.

22

WATER HEATER:
Your vehicle is equipped with a 6 gallon LP Suburban gas Auto Ignition Water Heater. The water heater is located underneath front
closet on the driver side. You can access the by-pass valves through the lower closet door..
1) For normal or summer operation, ensure your by-pass valves are in summer position. The valves at the top (red line) and bottom
(blue line) of the water heater should be open. The valve between the top and bottom valve should be closed. The valves are open
if the handle lines up with the water line, and are closed when making a T with the water line

2) Ensure the water heater is full of water. To check this open the water heater vent on the exterior of the coach and lift the pressure
relief valve, water should flow out of the spigot.

3) Fill your water heater by running your water pump or hooking a pressurized source onto the city water hook up. Open a hot water
tap in the vehicle to allow the air from the hot water tank to escape while the tank fills with water (this can also be done by
opening the pressure release valve on the water heater until water flows out of the spigot).
4) Once the water heater is full turn on the water heater switch located in the driver side rear control panel.. Ensure the liquid
propane supply to the coach is also turned on.

NOTE: Your LP gas appliances may not light on the first try. There may be air in the LP gas lines that will
dissipate as the gas pressurizes the lines.

23

FRESH WATER SYSTEM
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 p.s.i. The fresh, black and gray water tanks are located underneath
the floor.

FILLING THE FRESH WATER TANK
1)
Unlock the Fresh Water Fill. Remove the large white cap.
2)
Insert a garden hose into the fill opening.
3)
Turn the water source on to a medium flow rate, as a high-pressure flow will cause water to gush out of the fill opening.
4)
Monitor the fresh water fill level using the FRESH button on the monitor panel located on the kitchen end panel by
passenger side entry door. Do not over fill this tank. You may see water coming out through the fill tube or air vent screen as this also
indicates the fresh water tank is full.
5)
If you have over filled your fresh water tank or you want to drain some of the water out of the fresh water tank, open the
drain spigot located on the fresh water tank. This fresh water tank is located behind the passenger front cab door. The fresh water
tank spigot is located on the front of the tank.

CITY WATER CONNECTION
The city water connection is located in the driver’s side component/generator compartment. The city water connection is a
convenience for you when you have access to an outside water source. When hooking up the city water connection you should make
sure that the water pump switch is turned off and that all water faucets are closed.
1) Open the driver side component compartment.
2) Remove the plastic insert from the city water connection.
3) Attach a garden hose to the connection using a rubber washer to ensure the fitting is tight.
4) Turn the water source on to a medium pressure.
5) Check for leaks at the city water connection, as you may have to re-tighten this connection.

24

NOTE: In different areas the water pressure may vary. It is advisable to use a water pressure regulator
because excessive pressure may result in water-line damage. The city water system bypasses the fresh water
holding tank and feeds the water lines directly so that you will not have to use the water pump. To disconnect
the city water system, first turn off the water source, then open a faucet to relieve some of the pressure in the
lines (if you do not open a faucet to relieve some of the pressure, when you unhook the water line, water may
spray out), then unhook the water line.
Water Pump
The 12 volt Sure Flo water pump is located in the front cabinet on the passenger side behind the magazine rack or lowest cabinet door.
The filter and the inlet connection are visible on the left hand side of the water pump.
Activate the water pump by using the Pump switch on the switch panels located on the kitchen end gable or on the vanity in the
bathroom . Please consult your Sure Flo operating manual for complete operating and maintenance instructions.

TROUBLE SHOOTING:
If the pump will not prime, please check:
- to make sure there is water in the holding tank
- to make sure that the battery is not run down
- for kinks in the inlet water line
- for leaks at inlet fittings (if air is leaking into inlet fittings, tighten fittings or apply clamps as necessary)
- for clogged lines
- the inline flow filter, located beside your water pump.
If the water pressure drops:
- make sure faucet aerators are clean
- check to make sure there is water in the holding tank
- check to make sure the battery is not run down
- check faucets and connections for leaks.
If the pump runs when there is no apparent demand for water:
- make sure there is water in the holding tank
- check all faucets and fixtures to make sure they are all shut off and not leaking
- check line for leaks.

25

TOILET
Please refer to the manufacturer’s operating instructions.
Toilet Trouble Shooting:
1. Water keeps running in the bowl:
check to see if all the levers are turned all the way back. Sticking may be on the waste valve blade seal at the bottom of
the bowl ,caused by foreign material on the waste valve blade seal at the bottom of the . If the problem persists, you may
need to replace the water valve.
2. The Toilet leaks, there is water on the floor:
if the leak is in the back of the toilet, check the water supply line connection and refer to the manufacturer’s installation
instructions. If the leak is at the toilet flange area (where the toilet mounts to the floor), check the toilet flange nuts and
tighten.

3. Poor flush pressure:
the levers must be held fully open during the flush. A good flush should be
obtained within 2 to 3 seconds. If the problem persists, remove the water
supply line and check the water supply. The water supply rate should be at least
10 litres/2.5 gallons per minute to ensure an adequate flush.

26

SHOWER
To protect the surface of your ABS plastic shower pan, it is recommended that a rubber shower mat be placed in the shower pan. Use
a non-abrasive cleaner to clean your shower pan. NOTE: Do not use highly concentrated or high acid content household cleaners, as
these may damage the shower pan.
It is recommended that the fantastic fan is running while the shower is in use to remove humidity.
It is recommended that the shower be wiped down after the shower has been used. This will help prevent mildew and other residues
from forming on shower walls.

WARNING: the shower Before Entering ensure the shower door latch is in the full open position.

Note: While vehicle is in motion ensure that the shower head is in the stow position and the shower door latch
is in the locked position. Bathroom doors in the locked open position.

Note: It is not safe to shower while the vehicle is in motion.

27

WASTE SYSTEM
The Pleasure-Way Pursuit is equipped with two waste tanks.
1) Black water tank located below the floor of the van directly under the toilet. Only the toilet water and solid waste enter this
tank. This tank is approximately 23 U.S. gal / 87 L

2) Grey water tank located under the center of the vehicle directly inward of the generator.. This tank handles wastewater from
the sinks and the shower. This tank is approximately - 27 U.S. gal / 102 L
Before using your black water holding tank, deodorize it by adding one gallon of water and commercial tank deodorizer through the
toilet.

DRAINING WASTE HOLDING TANKS
1)
Open the driver side component/generator compartment door . This will expose the sewer dump outlet. Press in the black and
gray dump valve handles to ensure the valves are closed. Remove the black termination cap.
2)
Access the sewer hose from the rear horizontal compartment located on the driver side behind the rear wheel well. Connect
the sewer hose to the drain outlet, and put the opposite end into an appropriate sewer dump outlet

3)
Open the termination valve on the solid waste holding tank (black handle). Once this tank is empty, then open the valve for
the gray waste tank (grey handle). A garden hose may be left running into the toilet with the valve open to further rinse the tank and
sewer hose.
4)
Close the termination valves and replace the cap and store your sewer hose back in the canister.
Deodorize the empty tank by adding one gallon of water and commercial holding tank deodorizer through the tank.

NOTE: If the black water holding tank is allowed to overfill, the overflow may back up through the toilet drain.
NOTE: If the gray water tank is allowed to overfill, the overflow may back up through the shower drain.
If you are using a sewer hook up in a RV park, keep the valve closed until the holding tank is at least partially full, then drain. The
large quantity of waste flow will provide more effective drainage and reduce tank stoppages.

NOTE: It is important to clean your monitor probes in your holding tank to ensure their reliability. See your
RV dealer for suggested cleaning solutions.

WINTERIZING
1) Drain your fresh water tank. The fresh water tank is located behind the passenger cab entrance door Open the drain spigot by
turning the top lever and let the water drain (there may be a small amount of water left in the tank after it is drained.).

(1)

(2)

(3)

2) Drain your hot water tank. First, relieve pressure inside the hot water tank with the pressure relief valve located at the top of the
hot water tank. Then remove the anode rod at the bottom of the water heater tank on the outside of the vehicle. The anode rod is a 1
1/16” nut. Loosely reinstall the anode rod after the water heater is drained, this will prevent dust and insects from entering the heater
while in storage.
(See picture (2) above)
3) Turn the water heater bypass valves to the winter position. The water heater bypass valves are located inside the vehicle in the
lowest cabinet under the front closet on the driver side. (See picture (3) above)
4) The winter position means that the valve handle at the top of water heater on the red line should be closed and the valve at the
bottom of the water heater on the blue line should be closed. The valve in between where the red and blue lines connect should
be open (the valves are closed when the handle of the valve makes a T with the water line). (See picture (3) above)
5) Remove the water line from the inlet side of the water pump (this is the clear plastic line going into the water pump filter.)
Connect a siphon hose to the inlet side of the water pump place the other end in a container RV non-toxic antifreeze. Turn on
you’re the pump. This will pump non-toxic RV antifreeze through all of your fresh water lines.

NOTE: Siphon hose consists of 40” of ½” clear tubing with a fitting to attach to the water pump. The fitting
can be purchased through an RV dealer.

6) Open the kitchen and bathroom faucets one at a time allowing the antifreeze to flow through both the hot and the cold sides. Be
sure to also open the toilet valve and exterior shower faucet. Turn off the water pump and disconnect the siphon hose, reattach
the original fresh water supply fitting.
7) Pour ½ cup of RV antifreeze down each drain (kitchen sink, bathroom sink and shower drain).

29

8) Fully charge your auxiliary coach battery and turn off and remove the red disconnect. The red disconnect is located in the
passenger rear storage compartment in the small door above the battery access door.

9) Turn you thermostat to the off position. (see picture (9) above)
10) Turn your propane tank off. (see picture (10) above)
11) Place your fridge door in a slightly open position for air to circulate through the fridge..

Note: It is recommended that you start and run your vehicle and generator once a month during the winter
season.

WINTER USE
We recommend that the water system not be used when the outside temperature drops below the freezing point. You should ensure
that your unit is completely winterized by that time. If it is necessary to use the water system, we suggest that you bring containers of
fresh water with you and add non-toxic RV antifreeze to the gray and black water holding tanks. NOTE: Keep in mind that as you
add more water to the holding tanks the antifreeze will dilute more than the recommended amount and may start to freeze earlier at
cold temperatures. Do not use the exterior shower.

LOW POINT DRAIN VALVE
Located above the Sewer dump valves and terminal cap. This Low point drain will allow you to drain your water line system.

LIVING AREA ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The Motorhome living area electrical system is designed for convenience. It is capable of supplying the vehicle with at least two
sources of power. A 12 volt auxiliary battery supplies power to the interior components (except AC current plug receptacles, roof air
conditioner, microwave, and fridge on AC) for short-term use. The auxiliary coach battery is charged when the chassis engine is
running or when you are plugged into a 110 volt power source (shore power or generator) with the disconnect switch in the on
position.
For long term use, your vehicle may be powered by plugging into a 110 volt external power source with the supplied 25 foot power
cable. The yellow 25 foot power cable supplied with your coach must be connected to your coach and then to a 110 volt power source
(30 amp outlet is recommended). This will supply 110 volt power throughout the interior and supply power through a power converter
to all 12 volt components.

NOTE: Connect the power cord to your coach first and then the external power source.
Your unit is equipped with a 110/12 volt power converter. Its function is to take part of the 110 volt current that is received when the
unit is plugged into an external power source and convert it to 12 volts (which powers most of the motorhome components).

Note: All dash components including the in dash Radio, mirror mounted Back up Camera and front Map
Lights are powered through the starting battery or Chassis battery prolonged use of these items when the
vehicle is not running will deplete the engine starting battery.
