panel to supply the system with water. Let the pump run
until water comes out of the galley faucet, head faucet
and transom shower.
Awaterheaterthatincorporatesaheatexchangerisstan-
dard on the 378. The heat exchanger allows the engine
coolant to heat a portion of the fresh water supply while
the engines are operating. This feature provides hot wa-
ter at times when 120 volt power is not available. Addi-
tional information on heat exchangers is covered in the
engine and hot water  heater manufacturers’ manuals.
Please refer to Section H - Electrical Systems for addi-
tional information.
After all the air has been purged from the system and a
steady flow of water is coming from each outlet, turn off
the faucets one by one.  Begin with the cold water fau-
cets and continue until all faucets  are shut off.  As the

D.   Using The Shower
Turn on the faucets to desired temperature, remove the
shower spout from its holder, move the diverter lever on
the shower head, and the shower is operational.
B.   System Operation
Whenproperlyprimedandactivated,thepressurizedwater
system can be used in the same manner as the water
system in a home. An automatic pressure sensor in the
water pump keeps the system pressurized. Simply turn
on the faucet and water will be delivered. If the system
hasbeenrecentlyfilled,orhasnotbeenusedforanextend-
ed period of  time, air bubbles  may accumulate at the
pump.  If this should happen, re-priming may be neces-
sary.
When using the shower, draw the shower door closed
before using the shower. Damage to the finish can result
if surrounding walls and flooring are allowed to become
excessively wet. Thoroughly dry these areas after show-
ering.
