2012 Coachmen Sportscoach RD385DS Motorhome

We picked up out 2012 385DS on Oct 22nd. We took it to the Oregon coast for a week and we got a good check on being weather tight, as it rained a lot the whole week.


I have a couple of questions about the wet bay, and the documentation leaves a lot to be desired. I have attached a photo to refer to.


I assume #1 is the water inlet to fill the fresh water tank. #2 is for rinsing the black tank. #3 is for city water hookup. What is #4 used for? I had the dealer winterize the coach, as they had to do a couple of things to it, after I returned, but I will be winterizing the coach from now on. Is #4 an inlet to pump antifreeze into the system?



Don't know why the manufacturer can't be more specific about the model we bought, but they aren't. They give examples of several different wet bays and none of them looks like mine.



If you own one of these and know this wet bay setup I'd sure appreciate any advice you have..

1 is water tank fill inlet
2 is sanitary tank flush
3 city water connection
4 ?
To the right of 4 should be cable connection

My bay is similar but has one less connection. Could it be a winterization fill?

Yep... That's what I figured, but I have no idea what #4 is..... #1 I believe is for filling the water tank...
