Remember to open the thru-hull before you operate the pump. I forgot when I was a newbie. There was a loud pop after a few seconds. It took me a while to discover the sound was the pump blowing the hose off the anti-siphon loop in the medicine cabinet. Whew that it wasn't more serious.

Refrigerator Drain
Hi John
At the left hand bottom of the fridge (as you look into it and directly
under the freezing unit), you will find a removable drain plate (about
6"x7", from memory). This is the drain area which leads to the Y-Valve under
the hand basin in the Head. This Y-Valve is used to drain (A) the Head
Shower and (B) the Fridge. So you need to select the correct position of
this Y-Valve, turn on the Pump at the Switch Panel. Finally you need to
operate (on/off) the switch in the Head (located to the right of the Head
hand-basin).
I hose out the fridge after a few weeks of use.
On page 42 of the C320 Manual there is a schematic on plumbing.
If you do not have the latest C320 Manual, you can down load it from the
C320 International Users Site. Search for 'Manual' and it will take to them.
Hope this helps
