FEATURES OF YOUR 1004T

Push Button Ignition: Only one touch of the ON/OFF button is required to operate the heater.

7 Step Automatic Heat Control with electronic thermostat. The fan is also controlled by the

thermostat.

Economy Mode: An energy saving feature that reduces the room temperature by 3˚C over a 90 minute period.

Lockable Control Panel Lid: The 1004T has a lockable Control Panel Lid which is ideal for commercial use. This feature is great for applications where safety is paramount or when the unit is required to be set once and left alone. Two keys are also supplied with the unit.

Function Lock: Prevents children from altering heater settings whilst running, or from activating the heater when turned off. This feature is utilised if the Control Panel Lid is unlocked.

Heater Filter Indicator: When the heater filter becomes covered with dust and the temperature inside the appliance rises, the heater filter indicator will flash indicating that cleaning is necessary.

The integral humidifier tray can be filled with water as required to raise the humidity level in the room.

Room Sealed: Air for combustion is taken from the outside and the flue product is exhausted outside, keeping the room air clean.

HOW TO OPERATE THE HEATER

■ Turning ON

●Press the ON/OFF button

・The ON indicator will illuminate green. ・The combustion fan will rotate. ・Ignition will take 5〜10 seconds and the

ON/Combustion indicator will change from green to red to let you know that the burner has ignited.

Note:

・When using the unit for the first time or after long periods of disuse, ignition may not occur the first time

it is operated as there may be air in the gas pipes. If ignition does not occur after approximately 30 seconds the unit will cease operation automatically. Try operating the unit again if this occurs.

・The unit may make noises after ignition/extinction. This is the inside of the unit expanding and

contracting and is normal.

・The heater will not ignite if the “ON/OFF” button is pressed straight after extinction. After

approximately 20 seconds has passed the unit will automatically go back into ignition mode.

■ Turning OFF

●Press the ON/OFF button

・The ON/Combustion indicator will go out. ・ After the indicator has gone out, the

convection fan will continue to rotate for several minutes, then stop. This is to lower the temperature within the unit. Do not pull out the power cord during this time.

When the Function Lock is set, the Function Lock indicator will continue to illuminate even when the unit is OFF and the Function Lock will not be cancelled.

ON/OFF

CAUTION !

・Do not pull out the power cord or disconnect the power during combustion to cause extinction, or

straight after extinction, as this may cause damage to the unit.

ECONOMY MODE

ADJUSTING THE TEMPERATURE

Displaying, setting and adjusting the room temperature can only be done when the heater is operating.

・When the unit is first operated, the room temperature is

set at 22˚C.

・Set the desired room temperature with the up and

down buttons while looking at the display section.

・The “Set Temp” can be set to “L” or between “12” 〜

“26”, or “H” (continuous combustion on High).

・The “Room Temp” will display “L” (when lower than

1˚C), “1” 〜 “30” (at intervals of 1˚C), or “H” (when higher than 30˚C).

・Once a temperature is set, it will be stored in the

microcomputers memory.

Note:

・Rooms may not arrive at the set temperature due to the

construction of the room, the location of the unit, or external temperatures.

The Economy Mode, when selected, has the ability to reduce gas consumption and ultimately save energy. Once a room has reached the desired temperature, the unit will automatically begin reducing the set temperature gradually. This reduction is normally not noticeable, however, it is purely your choice whether to select this mode or not.

How it works

・After a room reaches the set temperature, the set room temperature will decrease 3 times automatically,

each time, dropping by a maximum of 1˚C in 30 minute blocks. From the second time onwards, the comfort control will automatically operate. (The comfort control alters combustion and fan speed more frequently to counteract the feeling of cold air.)

・The Economy indicator will illuminate to let you know that the Economy Function is selected. ・The Economy function will not operate when the set room temperature is less than 16˚C or above 26˚C. ・When the Economy function is operating, the current displayed room temperature may be lower than the

set room temperature, however, this is normal.

If the heater does not ignite then the pre-set temperature may not be set to a temperature which is higher than the actual room temperature.

FUNCTION LOCK

The Function Lock can be operated either when the heater is running, or in the “stand by” mode, by pressing the up and down buttons simultaneously. The Function Lock is activated and the Function Lock indicator will glow.

To de-activate the Function Lock, simply press both arrow buttons simultaneously for 2 seconds and the Function Lock indicator will go out. The lock can be de-activated at any time in this way.

The Function Lock will help to prevent accidental operation as well as small children from altering the heater settings.

When the Function Lock is activated during normal operation all heater controls other than the OFF switch will be locked. Deactivating the lock releases the controls. If the lock is activated whilst the heater is turned OFF, then all heater functions will be locked. If the heater is turned OFF whilst the Function lock is activated, it cannot be turned ON again until the lock is deactivated.

OTHER OPERATING INFORMATION

■ HUMIDIFIER TRAY

Your 1004T is fitted with an enamelled tray behind the air outlet so that you can humidify the air. To fill the tray, open the door as shown in the diagram and pour water into the tray using the spout built into the door. The air will be humidified as it passes over the water in the tray. DO NOT FILL THE TRAY WHILST THE UNIT IS IN OPERATION. CLOSE THE DOOR AFTER FILLING. The 1004T is a very high efficiency appliance. During operation a small amount of water is produced in the flue tubes. This drains into the enamel tray. It is quite normal for a small quantity of water to remain in the bottom of the tray. If you are using the humidifier, it will need filling about once a day during the peak heating season.

■ FAN FILTERS

To protect the fan from dust and lint, the 1004T is fitted with 2 fan filters. They are located at the top, rear of the unit. To clean, pull the filters out of the unit and remove dust with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner. Re-fit filters after cleaning. Your 1004T has a filter clean warning indicator that will illuminate when required, however, weekly cleaning is recommended during the peak heating season.

■ OUTSIDE FLUE

On cold days steam may be discharged from the flue outlet. This is normal with a high efficiency appliance and does not indicate any fault.

The heater and its flue must be installed correctly by an authorised person, and the installation must conform to all local regulations. The installation also must comply with the instructions supplied by Rinnai. This heater must be serviced, installed and removed by an authorised person. No parts or functions should be modified or permanently removed from the heater or its flue.
