CARE OF THE HEATER

Due to the 'natural convection' operating principle it is normal that some dust and fluff may build up at the air inlet
and air outlet louvres over time. This will reduce operating effectiveness and may result in the appliance
overheating if left for too long without cleaning.
DO NOT use solvents to clean any parts.
To remove dust and clean the appliance:
1. Unplug the electric plug of the heater from the socket outlet before commencing cleaning.
2. Allow to cool down.
3. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove any dust and fluff from the inlet and outlet louvres.
4. All parts of the heater can be cleaned using a soft, damp cloth with some mild detergent (such as dishwashing
liquid) if required.
5. Ensure the heater is dry before reconnecting to the electricity supply.

SERVICE AND REPAIR

During the initial heat up in period or after long periods of non use some light grey smoke or odour
may be experienced. This is normal and is caused by dust that may have settled on the heating
IMPORTANT
element. During this period the space being heated should be well ventilated.
If the electric power cord or plug are damaged, they must be replaced by Rinnai or a Rinnai appointed service
agent.
There are no user serviceable parts inside the appliance. All service and repair work must be carried out by persons
competent and permitted by law to do so.
If the heater requires service or repair contact your supplier or Rinnai Australia.
