•
Keep the area around the appliance clear
and free from combustible materials,
gasoline, and other flammable vapors
and liquids.
•
Do not use this appliance if any part has
been under water. Immediately call a
trained and qualified professional to
inspect the appliance and to replace any
part of the control system and any gas
control which has been under water
(N’utilisez pas cet appareil s’il a été
plongé dans l’eau, même partiellement.
Faites inspecter l’appareil par un licence
professionnelle et remplacez toute partie
du système de contrôle et toute
commande qui ont été plongés dans
l’eau.)
•
Should overheating occur or the gas
supply fail to shut off, turn off the manual
gas control valve to the appliance
(En cas de surchauffe ou si l’alimentation
en gaz ne s’arrête pas, fermez
manuellement le robinet d’arrêt de
l’admission de gaz.)
•
Use only your hand to push in or turn the
gas control knob. Never use tools. If the
knob will not push in or turn by hand, do
not try to repair it, call a trained and
qualified professional. Force or attempted
repair may result in a fire or explosion.
•
This appliance does not have a pilot. It is
equipped with an ignition device which
automatically lights the burner. DO NOT
try to light the burner by hand.
•
DO NOT use an extension cord or an
adapter plug with this appliance.
•
Any alteration to the appliance or its
controls can be dangerous and will void
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 offers a “Scale
Control System” that provides 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 combustion air vent pipe
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.
•
Always check the water temperature
before entering a shower or bath.
•
Do not adjust the parameter settings
unless you are trained on Rinnai tankless
