Timberame Compact.
Clearance to combustibles, mantles and surrounds
Combustible clearances
The appliance must not be installed where curtains or other combustible materials could come into contact with the heater. In some case curtains may need restraining.
Mantles and surrounds
A mantle is allowable providing it is outside the minimum clearances shown.
For an additional overhang, 100 mm of vertical clearance is required for every 50 mm of added depth. For example, a 100 mm mantle depth requires 400 mm of vertical clearance.
Floor protection
Heat emanating from this re may over time affect the appearance of some materials used for ooring, such as, carpet, vinyl, cork or timber. This may be amplied if the air contains cooking vapours or cigarette smoke. To avoid this
occurring, it is recommended that a mat be placed in front of the appliance.

Customer Information - General
Hearths
A hearth is not necessary but can be used for decorative
purposes or protection of sensitive ooring if required.
Some general guidelines when installing a hearth such as
in an existing masonry replace.
It must not obscure the front of the re
The bottom of the appliance must be level with the top of the hearth so there is a continuous level
Size should be at least the width and depth of the re
Remember to adjust the dimensions of the cavity to allow for the hearth
In some instances an increase in hearth is desired. For the Timberame range this may affect
aesthetics. The increase in hearth height may cause you to look directly into the vents where
the wiring is visible instead of the ame prole.
Ensure continuous level
Adjust dimensions of cavity to allow for the hearth
Maintenance and servicing
Maintenance
Your heater needs very little maintenance to keep it looking good. All parts of the heater can be cleaned using a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use solvents and do not attempt to clean the heater while it is hot or operating.
Servicing
Rinnai has a service and spare parts network with personnel who are fully trained and equipped to give the best advice on your Rinnai appliance. If your appliance needs servicing, please call Rinnai (0800 746 624) and select option 1 for a service centre in your area.
For reliable operation Rinnai Flame Fires should be serviced every 2 years (including inspection
of the ue system). If they are in a particularly dusty environment or subject to excess lint,
for example dog hair or where there are newly laid carpets then annual servicing would be
benecial.
Regular servicing is not covered by the Rinnai warranty.
Do not attempt to carry out any service work other than that mentioned in the troubleshooting section. If you have any other faults or problems, please refer to your installer or call Rinnai.

Installation Information - Location
Positioning the appliance
Main points governing location are ueing and warm air distribution. The heater must not
be installed where curtains or other combustible materials could come into contact with the appliance. In some cases curtains may need restraining.
Standard ued appliances draw the air for combustion from the room itself so there is a need for permanent ventilation (for example, xed open louvres). This xed ventilation must be
provided as per NZS:5261.
Enclosure requirements
The heater must be positioned on a at level surface that allows free movement of the
appliance.
Masonry installations, use a slurry of sand and cement to level base as required
Decorative installations, the zero clearance box needs to be supported, either construct a
base using board with supporting joists or support with the frame itself
Enclosure Dimensions
Masonry Installation Decorative Fireplace
W-Width 590 - 740 mm 680 mm
H-Height 640 mm 675 mm
D-Depth 360 mm 370 mm
All dimensions provided are critical to the installation of this appliance and must be adhered to.
Electrical connection
This appliance has a power cord with a 3-pin plug supplied. The power cord passes through the slot in the lower left or right hand side of the heater front assembly.
Rinnai recommends that the heater be plugged into a 230 V 10 Amp earthed power point. The power point must be a minimum of 300 mm to the side and must not be above the unit. Alternatively the unit can be direct wired if the power supply is to be concealed.
The electric isolation switch must be accessible after the appliance has been installed. The
electrical cord is not re rated and should not come into contact with the re.

Installation Information - Flueing
General ueing guidelines
Every appliance requires a ue system that will draw effectively and safely clear ue products
under all wind and climatic conditions.
It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the appliance is provided with an effective
ue. Some guidelines to assist with ue design is listed below. These must be read and modied as necessary with reference to the particular installation.
Flue Terminal Locations
Must be compliant with ‘Clearances Required for Flue Terminals’ from NZS:5261.2003.
Flue Length
This is required for adequate draw and prevents spill-back of combustion products that can
cause safety sensors to shut down the re.
Minimum 3.6 m vertical (1.2 m of vertical ue required before any bend or offset) Maximum Rinnai recommend a maximum ue height of 8 m
Flue Systems
For new replace installations (installations into a combustible opening) a Rinnai Zero
Clearance Box and Flue Kit is a mandatory requirement to meet warranty conditions.
For masonry installations, to ensure adequate draw, Rinnai strongly recommends the use of a Rinnai Flexiliner Flue System. Failure to meet this installation criteria may
result in an unsafe situation. Installation without a exiliner ue is permissible as long
as the chimney has been checked for soundness and ability to achieve a good draw.
Shared Flues
Gas appliances must not be connected to a chimney or ue serving a separate solid fuel
burning appliance.
Flue Cowl Clearance
To ensure the products of combustion are cleared, adequate clearance from the building is required. The following guideline is recommended.
Flue cowl should have a 500 mm clearance from any part of the building. This also applies to steeped and pitched roofs which should be 500 mm clear of the ridge line as shown below.
Lesser clearances may provide perfectly adequate ue systems depending on the installation.

Installation Information - Flueing
Masonry installations and exiliner ue systems
Check dimensions of opening
Ensure opening is within range provided and if necessary bring them to the required dimensions. Also check chimney height as inadequate height can affect product performance. Some installations may require the chimney height to be extended to reduce down drafts.
Check ueway
Ensure there are no obstructions. Provide a rm, at and sealed base
otherwise noise and vibration may result. Sealed means no holes or
openings in the replace.
Install a Rinnai exiliner ue system
Ensure a minimum vertical rise of 1.2 m before any change of direction. Avoid sharp bends as this will restrict the chimney’s ability to draw.
Installation without a exiliner is permissible as long as the chimney
has been checked for soundness and ability to achieve a good draw. Some criteria for checking soundness:
All loose/broken bricks must be replaced or repaired ensuring the chimney is of sound construction and does not leak
Chimney must be swept clean and be free from soot and creosote
that may have built up if previously used for a solid fuel re
Any damper plate must be xed in the open position or removed
Any underoor air supply to the replace must be completely
sealed off to prevent secondary air draw
An approved chimney cap and cowl must be installed

Installation Information - Flueing
New replace installations and ueing
For installations into new replaces (installation into a combustible opening) a Rinnai Zero
Clearance Box and Zero Clearance Flue Kit is required. Failure to meet this installation criteria will void any product warranty.
Installing the heater last minimises building debris/dust entering the re which is common
when building or renovating.
Construct frame and install a zero clearance box BEFORE the dry wall
Refer to instructions supplied with the zero clearance box.
Installation of the zero clearance box needs to be on a level base. If
this is not done the appliance may twist and become damaged and will void any product warranty.
Install the ue
The ue should be self supporting. This is usually done at the framing stage with ue supports (x2) provided in the ue kit. These are riveted to the ue. The ue kit components are twin-
skin and require a 25 mm clearance from combustibles.
Complete electrical connection
Electrical cord is not re rated and should not come into contact with the re. An electrical
isolation switch is also required so positioning of this switch needs to be considered when assessing where to install the unit.

Preparation
Position plinth into cavity or zero clearance box. The plinth correctly positions the heater
at the required level and the air slots at either end allow air to pass through and cool the
heater and/or zero clearance box
Place the heater on a at surface and remove the 3 screws holding the fascia (1) in place.
Pull the bottom of the fascia forward until clear of the gas control buttons and lift up to remove from frame.
Remove the 2 screws holding the top glass retainer in place and lift off (2).
Loosen the 2 screws holding the lower glass retainer in place and remove glass panel (3).
Remove the barrel elbow from the gas connection bracket on the base of the heater at the
front right hand side (4). Make sure that the gas are tting and gas supply pipe are clean and free from damage. Fit together ready for tting to the heater.
For installation into a masonry replace, the foam strips (5) must be attached to the heater to provide a seal around the replace. If this does not provide an adequate seal an
alternative must be used.
Insert the heater into the cavity on top of the plinth, taking care when inserting the gas supply tube.
There are 4 levelling screws at the base of the heater held in place with locknuts. If the
heater does not sit at when in place it may be necessary to adjust these. The front screws
are accessible with the front of the heater removed. If adjustment of the rear feet is required, the burner assembly and gas control will need to be removed (6).
Once the heater is sitting at attach it to the wall using the 4 holes (2 per side) on the front anges.
