First I have to make sure it isn't going to freeze and then I start on a list just like this minus the Satellite and Washer/Dryer:
I have a few friends that dewinterized last weekend due to the great Saturday we had and then this week the nights have been below 20 degrees. I tried to warn them.

I don't have a check list. But I typically:
1. flush antifreeze out the water lines,
2. fill the fresh water tank, add bleach, pump bleach water thru lines, let stand while doing everything else, drain tank, fill with fresh water, flush lines, drain again, and refill to about half,
3. run washer/dryer to make sure it works,
4. check all faucets working and no leaks,
5. turn on fridge to make sure it works,
6. make sure toilet flushes and shuts off,
7. check/add water in batteries (also done at least once during winter),
8. wash it,
9. check satellite system to make sure it works,
10. inventory supplies to see what we need to buy for new season.
My 5er stays in storage several months during the winter with power connected.
