4. Gas Conversion Steps

4.1 Adjust Parameter Settings

Adjust the tankless water heater parameter settings by choosing one of the two options below:

• Option 1 (Recommended): Adjust parameter settings using a Bluetooth®-capable Smart Device.
• Option 2: Adjust parameter settings from the tankless water heater integrated controller.

Option 1: Adjust Parameter Settings Using a Bluetooth-Capable Smart Device

Note: To utilize BLE, your connecting device (smartphone, tablet, computer, etc.) must have Bluetooth 4.0 or a newer version. Contact your connecting device manufacturer if you are not sure if your connecting device has Bluetooth 4.0 or a newer version.

1. Download the Rinnai Central™ app by scanning the following QR code:

1. Open the Rinnai Central™ app from your smart device. Create an account and log in.

2. Power cycle the water heater (turn off electrical power to the water heater, then turn on power again). Power can be turned off by unplugging the power cord or turning off electricity at the circuit breaker. The controller does not control the electrical power to the water heater.

3. Push the Bluetooth button on the controller. The Bluetooth LED light turns solid (Figure 1).

Figure 1 LED light "Bluetooth" button 120 °F/°C

1. Tap "Connect to a Rinnai Tankless Water Heater" on the Rinnai Central™ app (Figure 2). You will hear a beeping sound when pairing between the app and water heater is established.

IMPORTANT

• Confirm that the inlet gas pressure is between the minimum and maximum pressures allowed for this water heater.
• If the tankless water heater has recirculation capabilities, you do not have to disable the pump when performing these steps.

Check operation of the tankless water heater by choosing one of the following options:

• Option 1: Check operation by using a gas analyzer (recommended)
• Option 2: Check operation by observing the burner flames

Option 1: Check Operation by Using a Gas Analyzer (Recommended)

1. Remove the water heater front panel (if not done so already) by removing the two screws and releasing the two latches. Refer to the "Tankless Water Heater Installation and Operation Manual" for complete instructions on removing the front panel.
2. Remove the rubber cap as shown in Figure 5 and insert a gas analyzer probe (field-supplied) into the opening.

WARNING

Exhaust gas may leak from the opening while the burner is on. Exhaust gas contains carbon monoxide and other harmful gases, al injury or death. Seal the opening with metal tape or other ile the gas analyzer measures the exhaust gas. Also, sufficient avoid a potential hazardous situation.

Figure 5

FILTER Pull to Clean Rubber Cap

1. Press the "On/Off" button on the controller to start the unit (Figure 6).

Set the water temperature to 120°F (49°C) or higher, and turn on two or three faucets or showers. Refer to the "Tankless Water Heater Installation and Operation Manual" for steps on adjusting water temperature.

1. The combustion fan will begin to run if water is flowing, and the spark will ignite the main burner.

2. This water heater has an automatic ignition system. When the main burner is lit, the "In Use" light (Figure 7) will glow red and the spark will stop.

3. Let the water heater run for at least five minutes, and then measure the concentration of CO2 or O2 by the gas analyzer, as applicable, in the exhaust system. Compared measured CO2 or O2 with the following table:

Table 3

CO2	O2
NG	7.0% - 11.0%	1.7% - 8.7%
LPG	7.9% - 11.9%	2.8% - 8.9%

Option 2: Check Operation by Observing the Burner Flames

1. Remove the water heater front panel (if not done so already) by removing the two screws and releasing the two latches. Refer to the "Tankless Water Heater Installation and Operation Manual" for complete instructions on removing the front panel.
2. Press the "On/Off" button on the controller to start the unit (Figure 10). Set the water temperature to 120^ (49^) or higher, and turn on two or three faucets or showers. Refer to the "Tankless Water Heater Installation and Operation Manual" for steps on adjusting water temperature.
3. The combustion fan will begin to run if water is flowing, and the spark will ignite the main burner.
4. This water heater has an automatic ignition system. When the main burner is lit, the "In Use" light (Figure 10) will glow red and the spark will stop.
5. Let the water heater run for at least five minutes.
6. Check that the burner flames are operating normally. The flame can be seen through the circular window below the burner. When operating normally, the burner flame should burn evenly over the entire surface. The flame should be clear, blue and stable. A yellow flame is abnormal and maintenance is required (Figure 11).
