We used the water holding tank. No big deal. My question is when you have a water hookup, how do you know when it's safe to turn the electric side of your water tank on? My thought is , you would turn the hot water handle on in the sinks until air stopped coming out and was running clear prior to turning your water heater on. Is this correct. IDK.
Thanks,

Owner's Manual, Keystone RV Company "DO NOT start the water heater unless it has water in it. To verify there is water in the water heater, open the relief valve located on the outside of the water heater. If water is present at the relief valve, you can be sure there is sufficient water in the water heater to operate. Then verify the by-pass valve located on the back side of the water heater is set to the use position and open a "hot" water spigot on any faucet. The water will travel from the source, into the water heater and then present itself at the spigot when the water heater is full."
