Ultima II Operation Manual

It is recommended that a dedicated 240V 10 Amp earthed power point be used with this appliance. 

DO NOT

 use power boards or double adaptors to operate this appliance. Heater MUST NOT be

located below a power socket-outlet.

DO NOT

 remove the Dress Guard.

The dress guard is fitted to this appliance to reduce the risk of fire injury from burns and no part of it
should be permanently removed. It does not give full protection to young children or the infirm.

For protection of children or the infirm, a secondary guard is recommended.

Turn the heater to Standby after use. 

DO NOT

 unplug the heater while it is in operation or while the

fans are still cycling. 

Heat emanating from the front of this appliance may over time affect the appearance of some materials
used for flooring such as carpet, vinyl, cork or timber. This effect may be amplified if the air in the room
contains cooking vapours or cigarette smoke. To avoid this possibility, it is recommended that a mat be
placed in front of the appliance, extending at least 750 mm in front of it. 

When the heater is operated for the first time or after long periods of non use a slight odour may be
emitted, this is normal. However if odours persist switch off the appliance and contact Rinnai.

During periods of frequent operation periods the filters should be cleaned weekly, however if the Filter
warning indicator illuminates, turn off the appliance immediately and clean filters before further use.

When the heater is unplugged the for an extended period the clock will stop and will
need to be reset. However programmed ON/OFF times will remain in the memory.
