8. Complete installation checklist
1. Remove burner box glass
Loosen, but do not remove the
two retaining screws for the
bottom burner box clamp.
While supporting the burner box
glass panel, completely unscrew
and remove the two remaining
screws and the top burner box
clamp. Lift burner box glass panel
and place aside.
2. Unpack log set and granules
Carefully unpack the log set from
the packaging material and inspect
for damage. If any damage is
evident, do not continue with the
installation.
The satchel containing the burner
granules is taped to the outside
of the foam packing that contains
the log set.
3. Install log set and granules
Do not remove the burner from
the heater to install the log set.
Use extreme care when handling
the log set as it is fragile and will
damage easily.
To position correctly, hold the
log set at approximately 45 °
directly in front of the burner box.
Maintain this angle and place the
front feet of the log set behind the
unpainted inner horizontal steel lip
of the combustion chamber. Take
care to ensure the ends of the log
set do not touch the burner box
walls.

To set the log set into the final
position, rotate the back of the log
set down, using the location of the
front feet as pivot points, until it is
sitting flat on the rear burner.
Check the correct position of
the log set before installing the
granules. Ensure the log set is
firmly seated in the centre of the
burner box and not touching the
side walls, and that the ports are
clear of any debris that may have
occurred during installation.
Carefully place (do not pour) the
granules over and around the
front burner ports. It is beneficial
that the gas jet is diffused by the
granules. This will reduce any
candling effect of the flame and
enhance the realistic log-burning
look of the heater.
Do not force, or block
the burner ports with the
CAUTION
granules.
Do not place any granules
on the rear burner.
4. Replace burner box glass
5. Turn on electrical supply
6. Check burner pressures
Turn gas supply on, and refer to
the data plate on the appliance for
the correct gas pressure settings.
Remove the pressure test point
screw and attach a manometer to
the test point situated on the front
of the injector block.
Light the heater, select the
high heat setting, and check
the pressure. If adjustments are
necessary, the regulator is situated
on the front of the gas control.
After checking pressures, turn the
unit off, remove manometer, and
replace test point screw.
Turn the heater on and off a few
times to check ignition. When
you are satisfied that the heater
is working correctly, re-attach the
gas/electrical access plate (five
screws), and check the flame
pattern.
7. Attach frame assembly
Locate and remove the two 8 g x
10 mm frame assembly securing
screws. These are positioned in the
frame mounting tabs on the gas/
electrical access plate.
Carefully pick up the frame
assembly taking care not to tilt it
on its edge as the glass may slide
out of the stand-off posts.
Position the top fold over the
frame assembly mounting tabs
and gently push the lower edge of
the frame assembly until it is flush
at the edges.
Fit and tighten the two frame
retaining screws and the frame
mounting tabs on the heater.
8. Complete the installation
checklist
Complete the installation and
commissioning checklist in the
customer operation guide, and
make sure you leave the guide
with the customer. Explain to the
customer about the use and care
of the heater, and ensure they
understand the instructions and
operation of the appliance.
If the appliance cannot be made
to perform correctly please contact
Rinnai.
