ABNORMAL FLAME PATTERN

Each Rinnai Flame Fire heater has a distinct flame pattern. The flame should look
the same every time you start your heater, after an initial warm up period of
approximately 15 minutes.
Abnormal flame performance and/or pattern can indicate a problem with your
heater, such as blocked gas injectors, incorrectly installed / inadequate flue system
or the artificial logs/burn media may have shifted from when the heater was first
installed.
There are some warning signs that could indicate a problem. If any of the signs
below occur, please contact Rinnai.

• Appliance turns 'OFF' soon after start up and does not relight.
• Flame appears overly orange-yellow.
