Rinnai New Zealand i Operation Manual:01-07
Controllers and water heaters must be installed correctly by an authorised person. The installation of
gas, water, and electricity must conform to local regulations.
The installation must also comply with the instructions supplied by Rinnai.
Please keep this instruction booklet in a safe place for future reference.
All dimensions referred to in these instructions are in millimetres, unless otherwise specified.
Excessively hot water is dangerous, especially
for young children and the infirm. Rinnai water
heaters allow you to control the temperature of
hot water to safe levels.
Water temperatures above 55°C can cause
severe burns instantly and may even result in
death. Those most at risk are children, disabled,
elderly and the infirm. Hot water at 65°C (the
average hot water temperature in New Zealand)
can severely burn a child in less than half a
second. At 55°C it takes half a minute.
ALWAYS......
Test the temperature of the water with your
elbow before placing your child in the bath,
also carefully feel water before bathing or
showering yourself.
Supervise children whenever they are in the
bathroom.
Make sure that the hot water tap is turned off
tightly.
CONSIDER.....
Installing child proof tap covers or child
resistant taps (both approaches will prevent a
small hand being able to turn on the tap).
Setting your appliance at a maximum
temperature of 55°C (Contact Rinnai New
Zealand).
NEVER…..
Leave a toddler in the care of another child.
They may not understand the need to have the
water temperature set at a safe level.
