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
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.
SetTemp
RoomTemp

・
Time
FunctionLock

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.

FUNCTION LOCK
1
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.
2
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.

■ CAUTIONS
1. Maximum extendable length
FOR BEST ROOM AIR HUMIDITY, KEEP
WATER IN THE HUMIDIFIER TRAY.
2. To prevent water condensation
Condensed water
may accumulate
here, and cause a blockage
preventing combustion.
• 7 metres. Reduce length 1 metre for each
bend used.
(e.g. 4 metres, 3 bends)
• The bend where the hose and pipes leave
the body is not counted.
• The air intake hose should run along the
exhaust pipe.
3. Condensed water formed by
combustion, will run back to the
unit, and may overflow from the
condensation pan if pipes are
longer than 2.5 metres.
Therefore, pipes exceeding
these lengths should be made
to drain to the outside by giving
their horizontal portions 75mm
or more downward and
outward slope.
CAUTION
Never allow the exhaust pipe to sag, as
condensed water may accumulate and
cause incomplete combustion.
75mm slope(approximate)
More than 2.5m
– 28 –
4. Wherever the air intake hose and exhaust pipe
run sideways, try to have the exhaust pipe on
top (to prevent the air intake hose from sagging
onto the exhaust pipe).

PRE-SERVICE CHECK
Before asking for a service call please check the following.
These points are part of the normal operation of the unit.
At ignition :
Warm air does not start when the burner
lights.
The fan is started automatically after a short delay.
This is to allow the heat exchanger to warm up,
helping to avoid cold draughts.
During combustion :
Clunking noise when the thermostat
operates.
This is the sound of the solenoid gas valves
opening and closing.
When the unit is turned off :
Convection fan continues to run after
turning off.
This is to remove the residual heat from the heat
exchanger. The fan will stop when the unit cools
down.
Other points :
Steam is discharged from the flue
terminal.
High efficiency appliances tend to discharge water
vapour on cold days. This is normal.
Heater does not start even when ON
button is pushed and thermostat is on
HIGH.
Check timer. Timer must be in the “OFF” position
for manual operation.
Smoke or strange smells are produced on
the first trial light up after installation.
This is caused by grease or oil on the heat
exchanger and dust, and will stop after a short
time.
Sharp clicking noises at ignition, or when
the unit cuts down on the thermostat, or
goes out.
This is simply expansion noise from the heat
exchanger.

SAFETY DEVICES
Overheat Switch:
This device automatically cuts the gas off if the heater exceeds a predetermined temperature. This is normally
caused by an obstruction in front of the louvres, or a blocked fan filter.
If this switch operates, turn the unit off, remove the obstruction (clean filters) and let the unit cool off before reoperating.
Two Fusible Links
Backs up the overheat switch. If a fusible link cuts the unit off, a service call by an authorised person is
required to replace the link.
Flame Failure Device
If the flame goes out during operation this device cuts the unit off (lockout). To reset, turn the unit off, then on
again.
Fan Delay
Turns the fan on and off automatically when the heat exchanger warms up and when it cools down. This helps
to prevent cold draughts and maximises efficiency.
