This is most definitely a noobie question, but for the life of me, I can't figure out how to turn on my water heater! I have a 2010 Sprinter Select 29BH, with a Suburban water heater. I read the instructions, looked online, and I'm not seeing what I'm supposed to see.

It says to make sure there is electric to the appliance, then make sure there is gas to the appliance, then press (or turn, I don't remember which) the switch ON. Well, there is NO ON switch! I looked all around behind the panel on the outside of the trailer. I looked all around the water heater itself, and can't find any ON switch. I looked all around the inside of the trailer for a switch and found nothing. For a minute I wondered if maybe it could be automatic and just always ON, but I momentarily opened the pressure relief valve and just cold water came out.

It's leaving on its first camping trip this afternoon, and hot water would be a nicety.
