IMPORTANT
To maximise the use and life of all fitted
equipment in your caravan it is essential that
any accompanying manufacturers’ literature
is read fully. All recommended maintenance
and preparation procedures should be
followed. The information provided in this
handbook is only intended as a guide. If in
any doubt consult your manufacturer
appointed dealer, particularly before
attempting to install EXTRA EQUIPMENT.
WHALE WATER PUMP
The Whale pump is a non self priming
intermittently rated centrifugal pump which
draws approximately two amperes from a 12
volt battery and therefore maximum
continuous operation should not exceed 15
minutes.
The pump should not be run without water
and should not be used to pump water of a
temperature above 60°C.
SHURFLO WATER PUMP
Fresh water is supplied to the caravan by a
Shurflo pump. This pump is a completely
sealed unit designed for intermittent use and
is self-priming.
Before switching on the gas burner or the
mains immersion heater make sure that water
flows from the hot taps. This indicates that
the water heater is full.
TO OPERATE THE HEATER ON GAS
1. Close the window near the Cascade cowl
when the heater is running on gas.
2. Check that the 12 volt supply is
connected and switched on. DO NOT use
a battery charger as the only source of
supply.
3. To light the heater, press the ON button.
A continuous green light indicates that
the heater is working satisfactorily.
4. To switch the heater OFF press the OFF
button.
Light Indication
Green.
The heater is working satisfactorily.
Green & Yellow. The DC voltage is below the
10.5 volts that is required to operate the
heater. Recharge the battery.
Green & Red. The heater has failed to ignite
or that the heater has gone to safety shut
down. This is usually due to failure of the gas
supply or air in the gas system after fitting a
new cylinder. Switch the heater off and WAIT
3 MINUTES before attempting to relight the
heater. If air in the gas system is the problem
several attempts may be necessary before
the heater ignites.
