Dismantling the appliance Before commencing any maintenance work, ensure the gas and power supplies to the appliance are disconnected. Also read these instructions to get an overview of the IMPORTANT steps required before starting any maintenance work. There are a number of checks that need to be performed as the appliance is dismantled.
Combustion chamber pressure relief A check on the combustion chamber pressure relief should be performed before the glass frame is removed. This is to ensure the springs that operate to release the glass panel (when there is gas build-up) are in good working order. With hands placed either side of the glass panel, pull the glass panel towards you.
Glass gasket The glass front seal is critical to the safe and effective operation of the appliance. When removing the glass panel check the gasket to ensure there is a complete seal and that no part of the gasket is worn or damaged. The gasket seal on the combustion chamber glass should have no visible signs of wear and tear.
(small chipping is acceptable). The log set should not be mixed with any other burn media (except Rinnai Rock Wool). When you reposition the log set it is important to position the pieces as shown. Incorrect placement can create carbon build up and affect performance—refer page 5 for log set arrangement.
Burner bed and gasket Removal of the burner bed will allow you to remove excess soot and check the burner gasket as this can break down over time. 1. To lift out the burner two brackets will need 2. Carefully lift out the burner bed. Note hand to be removed.
Pilot assembly and injectors This step (completed once the unit has been dismantled) involves a general check of the pilot assembly and removing any build-up in the injector which can affect performance. 1. Lift out the pilot head. 2. Unscrew the pilot injector, check, clean and return.
Flue restrictor position and heat exchanger Check the flue restrictor position against the flue configurations shown on pages 17-18 to ensure correct placement. It is important that this is in the right position for the type of flue installed as this can affect the draw and performance of the fire. Inspect the heat exchanger for any sign of corrosion.
Vacuum in and around the fan (if installed) to remove any dust or debris. Do not remove the combustion chamber bottom panel to access the fan as this could damage the sealing gasket. Symmetry Maintenance Instructions 11699-B 02-12 | 13...
