The manual says to operate on electric turn the little black switch on in the outside compartment. It has been on all the time. We have been turning on the wall switch inside when we need hot water and it has worked. Today when I turned the wall switch on the gas burner lit, which is good I guess cause the water was hot quickly, but the way I read the manual it should be on electric with switch in that position.
Your WH can work on both elec and gas at the same time. If the water was hot 'quickly', it may have been hot already from electric (assuming you're on shore now). A wall switch is normally for gas. If you want just gas, turn off the switch outside on the wh itself.
