IMPORTANT
controllers brought in from other countries are not compatible with Rinnai appliances
sold in Australia.
Regardless of water controller installation, all Rinnai water heaters must only be
installed by an Authorised person.
Water controllers, transceivers and water heaters do not contain user serviceable
parts and must only be serviced and repaired by an authorised person.

POSITIONING OF TRANSCEIVER AND WIRELESS WATER CONTROLLERS

The water controllers must be installed in shaded and clean locations. The water controllers and the
transceiver should be fitted out of reach of children (suggested height from floor to be at least 1500
mm).
The water controllers are water resistant, however, durability is improved when positioned outside the
shower recess. The water controllers must be installed at least 400 mm above the highest part of a
sink, basin or bath.
The MC-503RC Wireless water controller is a water resistant device, however
excessive exposure to water such as immersion may result in damage to the
NOTE
controller.
• DO NOT immerse the controller into water.
• AVOID direct exposure to water or steam as these conditions may cause a
malfunction.
• ALWAYS AVOID exposure to water when the battery compartment is open.
• When cleaning your water controller use ONLY a damp cloth and a mild detergent.
The transceiver comes supplied with a 1.5m length of communications cable. The transceiver's
antenna is located in the top. For the best results mount the transceiver so the top of the transceiver
is higher than the top of the water heater.
In some cases building construction and design can reduce signal strength and it may be necessary
to locate the transceiver in a central location inside the building. Take the signal strength into
consideration when determining the best location for both the transceiver and the wireless water
controllers.
