Fresh water valve ?

Where is the fresh water dump valve on a 2016 Forester 3171?

I copied the following quote from a past post. We have a 3171 and this is where our drain is. See quote below.

The fresh water tank will then drain.

Hope this helps.

The fresh water drain is also located in that same compartment on the 3011. What type of issues are you referring too ? Draining is simple with just opening the valve.
