Any videos for winterizing a 2016 Born Free "Freedom" model??

I found a video on this site for winterizing a 1985 model, but none of the things match my 2016 Freedom model. The instructions in the downloadable Owner's Manual say things like "search for other drain valves" (gee, thanks for that), and "locate the brass 3-way siphon valve" and that sort of thing. A video would hopefully have some lovely young RVer smiling and pointing to them helpfully. Of course, I'd settle for an ugly old man like me.
I scoured YouTube, and found many winterizing videos, but none for the Born Free Freedom model, 2016, or similar. One said to pour the pink anti-freeze into the fresh water tank and then run all the faucets and the toilet and shower, which sort of makes sense, but another says to never do that or you'll taste the anti-freeze for months to come. (Is it really that hard to rinse out?) But in any case, I'd still need to find the drain valve things.
So if anybody knows of such a video, please let me know. I wish I could call the 1-800 number, but... you know. No time machine.
