Operation Manual

Suggested temperatures are:

Kitchen 50°C ~ 55°C*, Shower 37°C ~ 43°C

* Temperature may not be available on all installations

Rinnai water heaters can be programmed to deliver higher temperatures

via the kitchen controller. Contact Rinnai for more details. 

These temperatures are suggestions only. You may find higher or lower temperatures more
comfortable. Maintaining lower temperatures helps save energy. To obtain water temperatures lower
than 37°C simply add cold water.

The temperature of outgoing hot water is constantly monitored by a built-in sensor. If the temperature
of the outgoing hot water rises to more than 3°C above the selected temperature shown on the digital
monitor, the burner will automatically go out. The ‘In Use’ 

 indicator will also go out. The burner will

ignite again once the outgoing hot water temperature falls to that shown on the digital monitor.

Wireless water controllers can be fitted along with wired 'Universal' and 'Deluxe' water controllers.
Wireless and Universal water controllers allow temperature selection only. Deluxe water controllers
allow temperature selection, have a clock function and on the Deluxe Bathroom water controller BC-
100V a shower saver / bath fill function is also available.

Available configurations for Wireless and Wired Water Controllers:

For Wireless Only 

Installations

A maximum of 4 wireless water controllers can be fitted with the
following limitation:
Only ONE MC-503RC can be set as the Master Controller.
NOT compatible with MC-502RC wireless water controllers.

For Combination 

Wired & Wireless 

Installations

A maximum of 4 water controllers can be fitted. Any combination of
deluxe, universal and wireless controllers can be used with the following
limitations:
Only ONE master controller can be installed. This can be a MC-100V, a
MC-91Q (when programmed as a master controller) or a MC-503RC water
controller. Note that when a MC-100V is fitted it will always function as a
master controller, this is the default setting and can not be changed. 
Up to TWO BC-100V water controllers can be installed.
The FOURTH water controller in any installation MUST BE a MC-503RC
or a MC-91Q.
NOT compatible with MC-502RC wireless water controllers.
