The H310 models are equipped with a fresh water
supply system. This system consists of a water supply
tank, water distribution lines and a distribution pump.
Refer to Figures J11 and J12. at the end of this sec-
tion for general water system diagram. See Figure J1.
The materials from which the components of the water
system are made may give the water supply a peculiar
taste, especially when new. This condition is normal
and can be reduced somewhat through the use of a
water filter; such as that produced by PuriTec . The

taste should completely dissipate in time.
