1. Water is available from either hose or water tank, but you must manually fill the heater tank by running a hot water tap until it stops sputtering. Failure to do this will burn out your electric heating element instantly should you choose to use it.
2. You need water pressure to do this...either connected via a hose or using the water pump.
3. Depending on the model TM, you can either see the tank filling or wait for the inlet to overflow.
4. Doesn't matter, see #2.
5. Nope, completely different systems.
6. Underneath TM, there are 4 drain valves that drain different parts of the TM. Exact location depends on model, but probably just in front and just in back of wheels.
7. Hot water heater is rather large and is accessed from behind a grill outside the TM. Don't know where the pump is on that model, ours (2720) is under the sink. It is cylindrical in shape, perhape 5" in diameter and 8" long.
8/9. The electrical panel is probably located on a lower wall somewhere. It is dark in color, and easily opens. Most all fuses and circuit breakers are inside. Don't recall where fuse info is written, but there are not that many of them if you have to remove to get ratings. The 30 amp fuse is usually attached to your battery...it is probably a glass type. Very easy and useful to get a new bladed fuse holder from an auto parts store and change it. The glass fuses blow often, the bladed ones not so much.

We were all inept at the beginning. Soon your learning curve will level out and you will be giving advice...in the meantime, enjoy!
