Instructions
1
Begin by turning the propane gas on outside the camper. In most situations, this will be via a small portable tank at the front of the trailer. To turn the gas on, simply turn the gas-control valve counterclockwise until it will no longer turn, then turn it clockwise a quarter of a turn.

2
Locate the pilot light of the water heater. Normally, the pilot light is at the bottom of the heater and will be clearly marked. There will be a gas-control knob next to the pilot light. Turn the gas control knob to "Light" and then strike one of the matches and carefully slide the flame in front of the pilot light hole to light the gas.

3
Once the pilot light is lit, use the gas-control knob to turn the heat up to the desired water temperature. The pilot light will serve as the ignition source for the burners now, so that when the gas is on, you can simply adjust the water temperature with the turn of a knob.
