What are these switches for?

[Nroshon]

There are two light switches on the right side of the counter where the stove top is located. One is a typical color and the other is red and lights up when switched on. We bought our 3212sb used and we are trying to figure out what everything is. I have attached a photo.

Thanks!!

I would say the red one is the electric hot water heater and the white one may be for the awning light receptacle

Thanks JNBHOBO! Will check it out once we get her all filled up. Doing some minor maintenance before we take it on its maiden trip. But that answer seems completely logical.

Yes the red one is for using the hot water heater on electricity. By all means, fill the water heater before turning the switch on or you will burn up the element.

The other one might be the porch light if you don't have an awning light receptacle.

X's 3 on the water heater switch. JUST MAKE SURE it's full of water before you turn it on. Either run the water pump or with shore water and open all the fausets on the hot side until all the air is out. THEN turn on the switch. As to the other switch, look up on the side wall (door side) and see if there is a plug there. Plug something in (a light) and then turn on the other switch.
