Thanks for info guys.

Think I am begining to understand the water system.

If I am right it is an onboard tank ( Any idea of the capacity?) which is filled by a separate pump or hose pipe.

I will certainly try ebay for a manual

Thanks again

Allen

Cold tank about 30L (guess) + about 10L to fill the hot water heater and the pipes.

I used to have the same model van, I filled up the water at home before I left !

Or failing that, stop at a site tap (carry hosepipe) before pitching, after that we used an aquaroll and a small pump.

For use on serviced pitches with a tap, it's a much better system than external aquarolls.

The tap microswitches are all wired in parallel (any switch runs pump) they often go faulty. Get around this by cracking slightly open a "good" tap - the pump should run and a duff tap will flow water.
