Hot water at 60°C can severely burn a child in less than a second. At 50°C it takes five minutes. Always test the temperature of the water before any use. To prevent these risks, Rinnai reccomends to consider setting your hot water production at a maximum temperature of 50°C.
1.3 OPERATION The Rinnai water heater is able to supply hot water at a constant temperature, making sudden changes that result from the simultaneous use of several users or from variations in the temperature of the cold water used to feed the appliance (pre-heated water from solar panels, etc).
The appliance is set at the factory to allow the selection of a maximum temperature of 50°C. This limit is generally more than adequate for most of the domestic uses, but it is possible to modify it according to your needs. A Rinnai specialized technician can modify the device electronics by modifying the maximum allowed temperature, bringing it to a higher value or limiting it further.
Adjusting temperature Select the desired temperature using the hot water temp buttons until the required temperature is displayed on the digital monitor. To operate the hot water unit, open any hot water tap: the appliance will control the temperature and turn on the burner only if it is necessary to heat it.
1.3.4 OPERATIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION The following instructions and recommendations describe some important features of the operation of the appliance. This appliance is not intended for use by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental abilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they are supervised or instructed on the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
1.4 TROUBLE SHOOTING Rinnai products are all equipped with a self-diagnosis system: in case of failure, an error code appears on the control panel display and fl ashes. This function can be very useful for diagnosing the problem and tracing the causes, avoiding, where possible, the need for an external intervention by an authorized Rinnai technician.
Maintenance Indicator Rinnai service performed maintenance. Verify you have at least the minumum flow rate required to fire unit. Nothing happens when water flow is activated Clean inlet water supply filter.
You with the best service on Rinnai products. It is recommended to write down the model and serial number of the appliance before contacting Rinnai: this information will help us to frame the problem faster and to guarantee You a better service.

2.7.3 CONDENSATE PUMP SAFETY SWITCH WIRING The steps in this section must conform with local codes. IMPORTANT The condensate pump (if installed) should be wired to deactivate the water heater in the event the condensate pump fails. NOTE Disconnect power from the water heater. Open the water heater cover and locate 2 white wires labeled “To condensate pump safety switch.”...
2.8 REMOTE CONTROLLER A standard remote controller (MC-601) is supplied as a standard together with any outdoor model water heater. The indoor models are supplied with a non-removable controller on the front panel. However, it is possible to add up to three additional remote controllers on both product ranges (outdoor and indoor), to be able to adjust the temperature of the hot water from different areas.
Installation procedure (appliance side): DO NOT attempt to connect cables to the water heater unless the electric power is switched ‘off ’ otherwise damage to electrical components may occur. CAUTION Isolate the electric power supply by switching the power point off and removing the power plug of the water heater from the electric power socket;...
