GAS PRESSURE SETTING
 
 
The working gas pressure on the water heater is electronically controlled and factory set. 
Under normal circumstances it does not require adjustment during installation. Perform 
this procedure only if the unit is not operating correctly and all other possible causes for 
incorrect operation have been eliminated. 
Contact Rinnai UK before
attempting to alter the gas pressure. Failure to do so could void 
the warranty.
 
 
1. Turn 'OFF' the gas supply. 
 
2. Turn 'OFF' 230V power supply. 
 
3. Remove the front cover from the appliance. 
 
4. Check gas type switch no.1 of SW2 (fig. 1) is 
in the correct position for the type of gas 
(Nat. or LPG) you are using. (SW2 is top set 
of switches.) 
 
5. Attach pressure gauge to burner test point.

6. Turn 'ON' the gas supply.

'ON' at the master controller, select a 
maximum delivery temperature and open a 
hot water tap fully. (CAUTION: Ensure 
building occupants do not have access to 
hot water outlets during this procedure.) 
 
9. Set the appliance to 'Forced Low' 
combustion by setting No. 3 dipswitch of the 
bottom set of dip switches (SW1) to 'ON'.
