from combustible materials, gasoline, and other
flammable vapors and liquids.

Always check the water temperature before
entering a shower or bath.

Do not use this appliance if any part has been
under water. Immediately call a licensed
professional to inspect the appliance and to replace
any part of the control system and any gas control
which has been under water.

Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to
shut off, turn off the manual gas control valve to
the appliance.

Do not adjust the DIP switch unless specifically
instructed to do so.

Water Quality
Consideration of care for your water heater should include evaluation of water quality.
The water must be potable, free of corrosive chemicals, sand, dirt, or other contaminates. It is up to the
installer to ensure the water does not contain corrosive chemicals, or elements that can affect or damage the
heat exchanger. Water that contains chemicals exceeding the levels below affect and damage the heat
exchanger. Replacement of the heat exchanger due to water quality damage is not covered by the warranty.


If you install this water heater in an area that is
known to have hard water or that causes scale
build-up the water must be treated and/or the
heat exchanger flushed regularly. Rinnai provides
a "Scale Control System" that offers superior lime
scale prevention and corrosion control by feeding
a blend of control compounds into the water
supply. Damage and repair due to corrosive
compounds in the air is not covered by warranty.

Keep the air intake location free of chemicals,
such as chlorine or bleach, that produce
fumes. These fumes can damage components and
reduce the life of your appliance. Damage and
repair due to scale in the heat exchanger is not
covered by warranty.
