Hi welcome to B&B RV we’re in Denver Colorado at 80101 East 40th Avenue we’re gonna walk around this 28 Z today it’s a rental the cab of this is just built on a Ford we’ll walk around the outside here and show you how everything’s done generator is located up here but everything runs from inside so you won’t need to access a generator from outside that’s just a small storage compartment that most people don’t put anything in because there is a controller in there as well this is your dump so you have a gray tank for your shower and your sink and a black tank for this toilet and you’re gonna we’ll show you in a minute but you’re gonna bring the hose which is stored in the bumper you know bring that hose up take this cap off put the hose on put it down into the drain you know pull this valve straight up that’s the black tank so that’s going to dump your toilet dump all that out first close that this is your grey water so you’re gonna pull that straight up that’s soapy water from your sink and shower so that’ll kind of rinse it out so you want to do that last when that’s done you close that you take this off you put the cap back on and then put your hose back in the bumper and then when you get back inside after you’ve dumped everything there’s a little pouch with packets in there and you take one of the little packets out put it in the toilet flush that down in and that keeps it smelling better and helps everything break down quicker to flush out next time so that’s the all you have to do to dump your tanks this has a little white key on the key ring that’s going to unlock all your storage compartments fights me this is your cord for power find the end here and show you so when you get the campground I’m going to take this cord out plug it into the campground and have power so you have two ways to get power in the coach one is to plug in at the campground the others to run the generator and you wouldn’t do both so just one or the other and for the electricity the what that’s going to power what you need that for it’s going to charge your batteries so anytime you’re plugged in run your generator or drive you’re going to charge your batteries but then inside the electricity is microwave air conditioner outlets and the TV so primarily the microwave and the air conditioner is what you need the power for so you don’t always need power anything else will run without that this has a couple of connections here for water so this top spot is where you’re gonna fill your onboard water so you know open this up put the hose in and fill your onboard water here I’ll show you in a second there’s a hose specifically for that made for RVs that is lined so it doesn’t taste like hose if you’re gonna just connect to water and leave it hooked up for pressurized water instead of using the onboard water you’re gonna hook up the hose here the Sante flush is to rinse out that black tank so if you want to rinse that tank out sometimes when you dump that black tank it does not empty completely on the gauges you have paper or something hangs up this will help do that too so just realize that after you’ve dumped if some of those gauges still show it’s because that’s not completely rinsed that’ll help if you want to use that just hook up the hose turn it on and it sprays out the inside of that tank in the back you have a ton of storage in these little compartments we’ve included camp chairs water hose and a cable some of the campgrounds have cable for TV so if when use that that’s all in here for you getting that same little white key will lock all these compartments we also include some leveling blocks when you park you need to be level so the rule of thumb is if you’re going to park for 15 minutes or more go ahead and get level and so we put two of these blocks in and you’re going to just put these behind the tire and back up on to one or two or three whatever it takes to get level and there’s a level that we include inside and on the dash we’ll show you the reason you’re getting level is that the fridge has to be level to circulate when you’re driving everything’s fine when you park if you’re not level then you need to get level for that refrigerator to be able to operate properly we include the dump hose in the bumper so it just stores in the bumper you just pull it out use it put it back in make sure you get the cap on all the way there’s a ladder on every unit but it’s only for our youth you don’t want to get up on the roof it’s just we get up on the roof and inspect it every time it comes and goes this is just another access to that huge back storage area on this side you just have a couple of small storage compartments you’ve got one here and then a couple up in front that are pretty handy for storing shoes and such in you have an electric awning that you can sit on will show you right inside the door a couple of outlets so if you have the generator on or you’re plugging in electricity you have electricity out here as well so let’s go inside and take a look at the inside so this is the inside of our model 28 Z we’ll just start from the front and work our way to the back it’s a regular Ford chassis everything should be fairly familiar up here we do have a tow haul button on these so if you’re driving in hilly or mountainous areas as you’re going up those inclines once your vehicle slows down to about 40 to 45 miles an hour it’s going to shift down for you so when it does do that just push this tow haul button and a light up over here and you want to leave that tow haul on going uphill so it doesn’t want to shift up and down up and down and then for sure leave it on coming down the hill keeps you from going faster than you want to go downhill so you don’t have to use your brake you don’t want to break all the way downhill and if you’re still going faster than you want coming downhill if you just tap the brakes twice then it’s going to shift down for you so that you don’t have to ride the brakes going downhill you let the transmission take care of that it works great everything else is pretty standard there’s a couple of outlet well volt outlets up here for charging devices you just don’t want to put too big of a device up here this is run off of the car battery and they’re usually fused kind of low 5 amps or so so just be aware of that you do have a starting battery and separate house batteries so everything in the house isn’t going to run down your starting battery so you’ll be able to leave there is a backup camera built into the radio so when you put it into reverse you’re gonna be able to see what’s behind you and it’s a handy device but don’t count on at 100% you can’t see everything with shadows sometimes you can’t see it tricycle or something coming in from the side so just be aware of that we include it at a level so when you park to get level for your fridge you can just check and as long as that bubbles touching that black circle you’re okay doesn’t that be perfect just needs to be closed for everything to operate properly up in front you have a bed overhead so this piece flips over fills in this hole and then there’s two two little latches for a ladder the ladder will stand down here and you have a full bed up in top you’ve got the dinette and the sofa that’ll both turn into sleeping areas so the soap is just gonna be a jackknife bed that you’re just gonna lay down flat and then put back this is called a dream dinette we upgrade everything in here you can see we’re upgraded to the leather at the dream dinette this has a handle underneath that you just release and then this table slides down you’re going to slide it all the way down to these two rails these for cushions will just lay flat to make your bed and then when you’re done you’re gonna raise it back up just latch it TVs up here so that you have a better viewing than having it up in front by the entry door we’ve got a couple of switches for you two to know about the big round switch is for storing the unit so this is just a battery disconnect that you want to leave that on all the time so just make sure that’s in that on position you have an awning switch so this will extend to retract your awning it’s all electric you do not want to leave that awning out unless you are at the RV you don’t want to leave that out go for a hike go for lunch anything if you’re gonna leave the RV pull that awning in because a gust of wind will tear those off there’s a lot of torque under them this is a step light to use to just get in and out a little easier so you can see and then these are also interior lights and exterior lights there’s an outside LED strip and the entire way underneath of your awning up in the kitchen area we upgrade these to a stainless steel sink which is nice we have the upgraded 3 burner stove make sure you flip this glass cover out of the way before you use the burners these burners all have an automatic sparker like you might see on your grill so you’re just going to turn this on and then hit the igniter and that’s going to light your burners same thing for the oven it’s got a smaller oven but it works great for things like pizzas you’re not going to cook your Thanksgiving turkey in there this has some lights on it as well just one thing to keep in mind is this does turn the gas on when you turn the burners on so if you have kids in the RV or anything if you ever smell any just make sure those are off put this cover back down before you drive you’re gonna have storage built in all around microwave just like home you gotta have the electricity so you have the generator on or plugged into electricity when you’re driving the car it doesn’t provide electricity it does charge your batteries but it won’t provide electricity our control panel is right here in the middle and it controls all the features of the RV so the first thing we’ll do is we’ll slide this slide out to give us a little bit more room so it says extend and retract you just can hit the extend and extend that slide out this slide will not work if the key is on in the ignition so you gotta make sure that keys out before you put the slide in or out kind of prevents it from being able to work while you’re driving gets out you just let go of the button the next two buttons on here are tank heaters and that is for winter use so we have heaters on the gray tank of the black tank if you’re going out in colder weather those are run on the 12-volt batteries so basically you will need to be plugged in or have the generator to have those functional for any length of time or they’ll run the batteries down so that’s for winter you’ve got a water pump you just turn this on any time you’re gonna use onboard water so if you’re hooked up to pressurized water you’re not going to need that but anytime you want to use onboard water have the water pump on this has a water heater that’s upgraded for two options you can run it on your propane which is the LP gas or you can run it on the 110 so if you are at a campground or somewhere where you’re plugged into electricity it makes sense to run it on the 110 just to save the propane these are all your gauges so you’re gonna have your propane it’s going to be read from empty to full your battery and this battery gauge we don’t recommend using because the deep-cycle battery is good good good good bad so it’s not going to gradually go down and show you where you’re at so it’ll have four bars if you’re plugged in or you got the generator going three bars is pretty much a full battery but by the time it gets down to two it’s often fairly dead so I would ignore that other than for general use fresh water your black tank and your grey tank so I’d you use your fresh water this is going to go back down as you fill up your black tank that’ll come up as you mentioned outside sometimes when you dump that tank that black tank doesn’t go back down empty you’ll have a lighter – because toilet paper or whatever is going to hang up on those just be aware of that this is your control for air conditioning and heat so this little dial has all of the indications to the right for heat all the way to the left for cool we recommend just leaving this fan on auto high and then it will come on and off as a furnace or the air conditioner does and then of course you just set the temperature to your desired level this is a generator so any time again that you need electricity and you’re not plugged in at a campground air conditioning microwave TV outlets you just can hit the start button and then just hold that Start button down you don’t have to let go immediately when it starts like you do when you’re starting your car so you can hold that down make sure you hold it down until it starts and let go give that a couple of minutes to warm up before you start any devices make sure you turn off your air conditioner your microwave before you shut off the generator because it doesn’t like to start and stop under load when you get ready to go again you’re just gonna hit this retract button to bring this slide back in the fridge is right here it’s all pretty automatic as well it will when set on auto it’s going to switch from gas to electric whenever you switch from propane to electric so whenever you start the generator or plug-in at a campground that’s gonna switch to electric and then it’s got a colder temperature where you can adjust that to be cold or warm or usually in this summer it needs to be on the four or five settings sometimes in the winter three or four but just adjust that as you use it make sure things aren’t freezing in your refrigerator we’ve got a large bathroom in this got a big shower we include a trash can and a bucket of cleaning supplies the toilet is called a foot flush model where you just push down this pedal to flush partway down will add a little water all the way down will open up the valve and flush it underneath we’re going to have some toilet paper and chemical for you these are the pouches that I was telling you about so when you get ready to go you’re just going to take one of these little pouches throw that in the toilet and put a little water in with and then that’s going to help everything dissolve quicker smell better so just do that each time you flush there’s a fan exhaust fan up on top with little switch there as well and then in the bedroom in the back it’s all pretty self-explanatory but we have outlets in the corner there for you 12 volt and 110 you can in these units with that 12 volt in the corner if you use a sleep machine or CPAP machine you’re able to take a small inverter along plug that in and use that on the road so you’ve got a lot of storage up and around this particular model we do have the TV in the bedroom and if we ever had to troubleshoot your electric panel is here for all your your breakers and your fuses and this is twenty eight Z with B&B RV we hope you enjoy your trip.
