Clearances
The clearances listed below are minimum clearances unless otherwise stated.
Clearances around the heater
The appliance must not be
installed where curtains or other
combustible materials (coffee
tables, couches etc.) could come
into contact with the heater. In
some cases curtains may need
restraining.
Floor protection
Heat emanating from this fire may
over time affect the appearance of
some materials used for flooring,
such as, carpet, vinyl, cork or
timber. This may be amplified if
the air contains cooking vapours
or cigarette smoke. To avoid this
occurring, it is recommended that
a mat be placed in front of the
appliance.
Mantels and surrounds
Mantels and surrounds are allowed
providing they conform to the
minimum clearances shown. These
clearances are important as they:
- allow heat to escape in the
event of a power failure
during operation
- allow optimum performance
of the heater (room air return)
- allow access to the side mesh
filters
Clearance calculation example
At a 75 mm vertical clearance, the
maximum mantel depth is 25 mm.
For every 25 mm of added mantel
depth, there must be an additional
25 mm of vertical clearance. For
example a mantel depth of
100 mm requires a vertical
clearance of 150 mm

General information
Before operation please read these instructions to get an overview of how to operate,
maintain and service your Rinnai gas fire.
Electrical connection
The Arriva 752 is
fitted with a
1.5 m power cord
and 3-pin plug. The
standard electrical
connection is to the right hand
side of the heater front assembly.
If necessary this can be changed
by your electrician to terminate on
the left.
The connection is either direct
wired or connected to a power
point within the cavity. This must
be connected to a dedicated
earthed power point. The electric
isolation switch must be accessible
after the appliance has been
installed. The heater must not
be located immediately below
a socket outlet (potential fire
hazard).
If the supply cord is damaged, it
must be replaced by a licensed
tradesperson. This must be a
genuine replacement part available
from Rinnai, part number 6765B.
Hearths
A hearth is not necessary, but can
be used for decorative purposes
or protection of sensitive flooring
if required. General guidelines if
installing a hearth.
• It must not obscure the front
of the fire
• The bottom of the appliance
must be level with the top
of the hearth so there is a
continuous level
• Size should be at least the
width and depth of the fire
Installation by a licensed
tradesperson
Ensure your installer talks to
you about the use and care of
this appliance, and that you
understand these instructions. The
installer also needs to complete
the appliance installation checklist
and installer details, and leave this
guide with you.
Positioning the Arriva 752
To gain maximum heating
advantage from the bottom air
discharge, position the Arriva 752
close to the floor.
The unit can be fully recessed as
long as the mantel and surround
clearances on the previous page
are maintained.
Power failure
If the power is disrupted while
the heater is operating, once the
power is restored, the heater will
go into power failure mode—on
the control panel there will be
flashing zeros in the error display,
and the LED will flash green.
To reset the heater, press the On/
Off button on the control panel
twice, or use the remote control
and press the Standby/On button
once (to go on standby) and then
a second time to turn the heater
on.
Safety devices
Your Rinnai Arriva 752 is designed
with the following safety devices:
- flame failure sensing system
- pressure relief
- overheat safety switch
- air temperature sensor
- thermal fuse
- overcurrent fuse
- spark detector
Soot deposits
Small soot deposits inside
the heater or glass is normal.
Significant build up however is not
normal and will require a service
call. Refer to the troubleshooting
section for further information.
TV installation above the
fireplace
If installing a flat
screen television
above the fire,
the main issue is
heat, heat from the
appliance, and heat from the
flueing components that may sit
behind the television (especially if
recessed).
The Arriva 752 has a fan that
distributes warm air at a low level.
This pushes heat out and around
the room as opposed to straight
up, so installation of a television
may be an option. The Arriva 752
also has a power flue that has
virtually zero clearance to any
cavity in which it is installed. The
flueing components are also small
and generate very little heat.
Generally the bottom of the
television recess should be at
least 450 mm above the fire.
Please check with the television
supplier to check clearances. Some
television manufacturers have
warranty conditions that state a
television is not to be installed
above a fireplace.

Operation without the remote
Ignition
This appliance has a sealed
combustion chamber that requires
purging before gas can flow and
the unit can start. This means the
combustion fan will start several
seconds before the unit comes on.
Normal ignition sequence:
1. When the On/Off button is
pressed on the control panel,
the LED will glow red and the
combustion fan will start.
2. The ignition sparker will
operate and as soon as a
spark is sensed gas will flow to
the main burner.
3. When the main burner has
established, the heater will
automatically modulate
between the burner settings
to achieve and maintain the
default set temperature of
22 °C.
If the heater is turned off using
the On/Off button on the heater
control panel, when it is turned
back on, it will lose any timer
and clock settings until the
remote is used to re-transmit the
information. The remote stores
the clock, timer, and temperature
settings of the heater.
Do not unplug power supply
Do not unplug the main power
supply to turn the unit off as
the convection fan is required to
operate for several minutes after
the unit is turned off to assist in
cooling the unit down.

Arriva 752 Operation Guide: 12219-A 01-12 | 9
Operation using the remote
For the remote control functions to be available, the appliance On/Off button must be in the
on position.
General information about the
remote control
The remote control emits an infra-
red signal. It must be aimed at the
receiver unit located on the right
side of the unit, normal operating
range is 5 m. Some fluorescent
lights may interfere with the
transmission of the remote signal.
If you experience this problem,
changing position from which
you are operating the remote may
help.
Unless the remote display is

when the ‘Time Set’ button is
pressed.
When the remote is not used for
a period of approximately five
seconds, the display will default
to standby mode, displaying only
the time. To reactivate press any
button on the keypad.
Signal transmissions
Signal transmissions are
confirmed by a brief
illumination of the signal
indicator on the remote.
The unit will also flash and beep
to confirm the settings have been
received.
Batteries
The remote uses
two x 1.5 V AAA
batteries. Never
mix old and new
batteries.
Remove the batteries if the remote
is not going to be used for a long
time. This will help avoid damage
from leaking batteries.

Using the timers
Prior to using the timers ensure
the desired temperature has
been set—refer ‘Adjusting the
temperature’ on the previous
page.
You can view the timer settings
by pressing the Timer 1 or Timer
2 buttons while the heater is
operating. The display will briefly
show the status of each timer,
i.e. Timer 1 On, Timer 1 Off. If
the current time is outside of the

go into standby mode and the LED
will glow green.
To turn the timers off, press the
relevant timer button again. The
heater will return to standby
mode. If there are no timers set
the Timer indictor will go out.
Preheat
The preheat automatically
functions in conjunction with
the timers. The preheat function
ensures the room reaches the
desired temperature by the
programmed on time. This is
achieved by sensing the room
temperature one hour prior to
start.
Override
This is used to manually override
the timers so the heater can be
operated outside of the timer
settings. When override is selected
‘Override’ will be displayed. While
in override mode all remote

the next timer setting is reached.
To return to the timer setting,
press the Override button a second
time. If Standby/On is pressed
during override the heater will
revert to standby and the timer
programs will be cancelled.
Extra low
The Extra Low function is useful
in situations when the room
temperature keeps rising even
when the heater is on the lowest
heat setting.
Extra low function off
When the room temperature
reaches the preset temperature,
the heater continues to operate
with the main burner on low
to provide a flame picture with
minimal heat output. In some
cases this may still cause the room
to become warmer than desired.
Extra low function on
When the room temperature
exceeds the preset temperature,
the burner will reduce to an extra
low setting. The burner will return
to normal to maintain the set
temperature.
Flame
The flame function
can be used
approximately 90
seconds after heater
has started. The
flame function is used to select a
desired flame picture and overrides
the automatic mode. There are
seven flame settings available.
While the heater is in operation,
press the Flame button. The heater
will automatically default to the
last flame picture setting. The
word ‘Flame’ and a series of short
bars will be displayed to show the
flame function is in operation. Use
the up and down buttons to select
the desired flame picture. The
number of bars illuminated will
correspond to your selection.
Should the room temperature
exceed 40 °C while the flame
function is activated, the heater
will switch off—this is a safety
feature.
Lock
This is designed as a child lock
function. When Lock is pressed all
remote functions will be locked,
with the exception of the Standby/
On button (for the purpose of
turning the heater to standby
only). The remote will show ‘Lock’.

Care of your Arriva 752
Important
Switch off the appliance before
cleaning, DO NOT attempt
to clean the heater while it is
operating or hot.
DO NOT use solvents, all parts
of the heater and remote can be
cleaned using a soft damp cloth
and mild detergent.
About the filters
The filters of this appliance are
located inside the room air return
doors (side louvres) and consist of
two metal mesh strips.
The build up of dust on the
filters reduce air flow through
to the heater. This reduces the
heater’s efficiency and can lead
to the appliance shutting down.
Regular filter cleaning during the
heating season will stop this from
happening.
Cleaning the filters
Clean any dust or debris from both
sides of the filters using a vacuum
cleaner, a soft dry cloth, or a soft
brush. NEVER attempt to clean the
filters with water.
Heater shutdown due to filter
blockages
Do not wait for the blockage
indicator (error code 14) to come
on before cleaning the filters. Do
not continue to use the heater
once this indicator is flashing red.
When a build up is detected the
blockage indicator LED, located
above the receiver window, will
begin to flash red to let you know
there is a problem.
Once the indicator light is flashing,
if no action is taken, the heater
will eventually shut down to avoid
overheating. Error code 14 will
be displayed in the error display
window on the control panel of
the unit.
Returning the appliance to
normal after a shutdown
To restore normal operation after a
filter blockage:
1. Press the On/Off button once
to turn off the heater.
2. Clean the filters.
3. Press the On/Off button to
turn the heater back on.
4. Use remote control to resume
normal operation.
Lower louvres
It is important that the warm air
discharge louvres are kept clear of
any obstructions as this will affect
the performance of the heater.
When an obstruction is detected
the blockage indicator LED (above
receiver window) will go red and
the heater will turn down to low
operation (front burner only). To
restore normal operation, remove
the obstruction and use the
remote control to resume normal
heater operation.
Your heater needs very little maintenance, however the following information will keep it
looking good and working efficiently.
Filters are located
inside the Room Air
Return doors

Troubleshooting
& error codes

14 | Arriva 752 Operation Guide: 12219-A 01-12
Troubleshooting
Characteristic Explanation
When turning
on
Warm air does not start when the burner
lights.
The fan starts automatically after a short delay.
This is to allow the appliance to warm up,
helping avoid cold draughts.
Smoke or strange smells are produced
when first operating the appliance after
installation.
This is caused by grease, oil, or dust within the
appliance. This will stop after a short time.
Sharp clicking noises at ignition, or when
the unit thermostat modulates to a lower
or higher setting, or shuts down.
This is expansion and contraction of the heat
exchanger and is a normal part of operation.
During
operation
Clunking noise when the thermostat
operates
This is the sound of the gas valve opening and
closing to regulate the flow of gas.
When turning
off
Fan continues to run after the heater is
turned off.
This is to remove residual heat from within the
appliance. This stops once the unit cools down.
Other Steam is discharged from the flue terminal
outside.
High efficiency appliances tend to discharge
water vapour on cold days—this is normal.
Heater doesn’t start when the Standby/On
button is pushed (thermostat on high)
Check the appliance On/Off button is on. Check
timer(s). Timer programmes must be turned off
or overridden for manual operation.
Timers Timer(s) do not operate at the set time They may be inactivated or incorrectly
programmed. Check timers are set correctly.
Timer operates for a short time then cuts
out
Room temperature may be higher than the set
temperature. Increase set temperature if desired.
Turn off the Extra Low button if on.
Check the following information before making a service call as some performance characteristics of
the Arriva are a normal part of operation. If you are still unsure or concerned after reading this section,
please contact Rinnai.
During installation there will be an initial burning in period where some smoke and smell may be
experienced. This is a normal part of the operation.
The appliance is fitted with an overheat safety switch. Under overheating conditions this switch will
shut off the appliance. If the appliance shuts off repeatedly servicing may be required.
Using the heater for the first time, or after a long period of non use
Ignition may not occur the first time it is operated due to air in the gas pipes. If ignition does not occur
within approximately one minute the appliance will attempt to re-light. If ignition does not occur the
unit will switch off automatically. Try operating the heater again if this occurs.
The heater may make noises after ignition or switching off. This is due to the expansion and contraction
of the internal components—this is normal. The heater will not ignite if the On/Off button is pressed
straight after the heater has turned off. It will take approximately 20 seconds before the unit will switch
on again.

Abnormal ame pattern
Each Rinnai Flame Fire has a distinct flame pattern. This should look the same every time you
start your fire, after an initial warm up period of approximately 20 minutes.
Abnormal flame performance and/
or pattern can indicate a problem
with your fire, such as blocked gas
injectors, or that the burn media
has shifted from when the fire
was first installed. There are some
warning signs that could indicate a
problem.
- Unusual smell from the
appliance
- Continued difficulty or delay in
establishing a flame
- Flame appears either very
short or very long
- Flame only burns part way
across the burner
- Severe soot building up on the
inside of the glass door1
If any of the above signs occur,
please call Rinnai to discuss.
Normal flame pattern
Abnormal flame pattern
1Appliances incorporating a live fuel effect, and designed to operate with luminous flames, may exhibit slight carbon deposits—this is
normal.
