All right, so I am in a discovery mode with this new camper.
So far I am loving it!
I have a few general questions about appliances - since they are the same for any camper, I'll just throw them here - feel free to add your wisdom:
-Water heater. How warm is the water supposed to get? I believe the water heater has a built-in tank of 6 gallon (Atwood) Do I have to let it warm for a long-time before using it? Or should it be instantaneous/on-demand?
-Water pump. When I run the water pump, there is a sputter that keeps going. I thought it was supposed to happen only at the beginning when the pressure builds up but it keep going. Any clue why?
-Fridge. How is it supposed to run when I am driving? Of the 110V/12 converter or gas? I read that we are not supposed to drive with the gas on so I would assume electric but it did not cool down on the way down to Prescott. It works fine when hooked up to the external 110V. I am testing the gas now but that seems okay - the check light is off. The fridge is a Dometic RM2652.
-Fantastic Vent. It won't come on.
The knob that indicates 0-1-2-3 is sort of wiggly. I can actually turn the whole thing around. Is there anything there I am supposed to do?
I am going through the pages of literature I got with the camper right now...
