FEATURES
Room Sealed: Air for combustion is taken from the outside and the flue products are exhausted
to the outside. This means heater operation has no effect on the composition and quality of air in the room.
Push Button Ignition: Only one touch of the STANDBY/ON switch is all that is required to operate the heater.
Lock: When the Lock function is activated all controls other than the STANDBY/ON switch will be locked. Deactivating the lock releases the controls. If the lock is activated when the appliance is in STANDBY, all functions will be locked.
Memory: The heaters micro-computer records preset temperatures, timer programming, and operational modes. Even in the event of a power failure, the need for reprogramming is minimised.
Dual Timer: The Dual Timer allows you to program the appliance to operate for two separate periods each day. Once programmed the heater can then be controlled by selection of the T imer 1 and or Timer 2 functions.
The Dual Timer feature means that you can "Set and Forget" your heater. It will turn itself ON or to STANDBY at the times you have programmed until you cancel the Timer program.
Pre-Heat: This function automatically operates the appliance before the programmed ON time of the Timer, in order to heat a room to the pre-set temperature by the programmed ON time.
Remote Control: Full function cordless remote for the convenience of operating the heater from a distance.
Auto-Off Function: The Auto-Off function is an energy saving feature designed to control the room temperature economically. If the room temperature continues to rise when the heater is thermostatically turned down to its lowest setting the front burner will turn off leaving only the pilot flame operating. When the room temperature requires further heating the heater will automatically re-ignite to warm the room.

SAFETY
Do not restrict the warm air discharge by placing articles in front of the heater.
Do not spray aerosols whilst the heater is operating. Most aerosols contain butane gas, which can be a fire hazard if used near the heater when it is in use.
Do not allow young children or the infirm to sleep directly in front of the heater.
Do not allow anyone to post articles through the louvres or let flammable and combustible materials to come into contact with the heater.
Do not unplug the heater while it is in operation or while the fans are still cycling. Unplugging the heater will cause any timer operation to stop. Timer programs are stored in the memory of the remote control.
A dedicated 230~240V 50Hz 10 Amp power point must be used with this appliance. Do not use power boards or double adaptors to operate this appliance. Heater must not be located below a power socket outlet.
Young children should be supervised at all times. Hand or body contact with the warm air discharge louvres and glass must be avoided.
This appliance must not be used for any purpose other than heating.
Do not place articles on the heaters top panel or obstruct the auto overheat discharge vent.
Do not allow anyone to sit on or lean against the appliance.
To prevent discolouration of floor coverings from heat, it is recommended that a mat be placed in front of the heater when it is in operation.
When the heater is operated for the first time or after long periods of non use a slight odour may be emitted, this is normal. However if odours persist switch off the appliance and contact Rinnai.
Rinnai 6 Operation Manual
BASIC HEATER OPERATION
GENERAL NOTES ABOUT IGNITION
This appliance has a sealed combustion chamber that requires purging before gas is allowed to flow and the ignition sequence begins. As a result the combustion fan starts several seconds before there are any signs of ignition. The normal ignition sequence is as follows:
OPERATION WITHOUT THE REMOTE CONTROL (AUTOMATIC MODE)
1. When the On/Off button is pressed the Operation Indicator LED will glow red and Combustion fan will rotate to purge the system.
2. Pilot sparker operates.
3. As soon as a spark is sensed, gas will flow to the pilot.
4. When the pilot flame is established gas will flow to the front burners and then to the rear burners.
5. When all burners are established the heater will automatically modulate betwee n burner settings to achieve and maintain the default set temperature of 22°C.
When using the heater for the first time or after long periods of non use, ignition may not occur the first time it is operated due to air in the gas pipes. If ignition does not occur within approximately 60 seconds the appliance will attempt to re-light, however if ignition continues to fail the unit will cease operation automatic ally. Try operating the heater again if this occurs.
The heater may make noises after ignition or extinction. This is due to expansion and contraction of the internal components 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 into ignition mode.
The remote control stores the clock, timer and temperature settings for the heater. The heater can be operated and stopped without the remote control by simply using the On/Off button on the top panel of the heater. Operation in this manner is known as automatic mode. In automatic mode the default set temperature is 22°C. For operation in other modes the remote control must be used.
OPERATION WITH THE REMOTE CONTROL
For the remote control functions to be available, the heater must be switched between standby and off using the remote control.
The remote control emits an Infra Red (IR) signal and must be aimed at the receiver unit located to the right of the warm air discharge louvre . The normal operating range is approximately 5 metres, up to an angle of approximately 40 degrees to the horizontal. This range may vary depending on the position of the installation and the strength of the remote controller batteries. The remote control transmits information to the heater whenever a button is pressed except as follows:
1. When the remote control display is de-activated and any button is pressed to restore the display
2. When the lock function is activated
When the timers are being set, timer information is transmitted only when the ‘Time Set’ button is pressed.
Signal transmissions are confirmed by a brief illumination of the Transmission Signal Indicator on the Remote Display and at the heater the Remote Control Indicator located to the right of the warm air discharge louvre will flash and a beep will sound to confirm that the settings have been received.
When the remote control is not used for a period of approximately 5 seconds the display will then default to stand-by mode, displaying only the time.
To re-activate the remote control press any bu tton on th e keypad. This returns the display to the previous mode. No information is transmitted from the controller to the heater when re-activating the display.
