Two things to add. 1) when filling the water heater to make sure it is full I open the pressure relief valve and make sure some water comes out. If I am hooked up to "city water" Turn on the water hot and cold at one of your sinks inside then turn on the water a the hose , hold the pressure relieve valve open till it spits close walk inside and close valves at sink once water comes out. Then bleed air from every other faucet, toilet. With water from the tank open a faucet and then turn on the pump, open pressure valve , let it spit then turn off valves one you have water Bleed all other fixtures.
2) On my electric/gas heater I have two switches to turn on electric Block rocker switch outside. Open the door to the water heater open pressure relief valve to make sure it spits then kneel down and look for the black rocker switch turn it on. I say kneel because I must have bent over and looked ten times and could not find the switch so was unable to use electricity to heat water till I finally kneeled down and finally saw the switch. The other switch is inside the camper it has a red lighted light switch. No markings it appears to be a light switch that does not work. in a the main room while the gas water heart switch is labeled part of a panel in the bathroom . It is only red if the outside switch is also on and there is power to the heater. I took a galvanized 1/2 inch pipe hanger and put it on the switch to act as a guard to try and prevent it being turned on or off at the wrong time. Just take the screw out of the over plate put the pipe hanger on over the switch and use a little longer screw to put it together.
