INSTALLATION
ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
This appliance is supplied with a 1.5 metre long power cord with a three pin plug. Rinnai recommends
that the dryer be plugged into a dedicated 240V, 10A earthed power point.
Alternatively the appliance can be direct wired if the power supply is to be concealed.
APPLIANCE MOUNTING OPTIONS
Rinnai gas dryers may be floor, bench, shelf or wall mounted.
FLOOR MOUNTING
There are no specific requirements for floor mounting of the appliance other than those that are listed
under “POSITIONING OF THE APPLIANCE” on page 13.
BENCH OR SHELF MOUNTING
Position the appliance in accordance with the requirements that are listed under “POSITIONING OF
THE APPLIANCE” on page 13.
When bench or shelf mounted, the appliance is supported by the four rubberised ‘feet’ at the base of
the appliance. These do not need to be fastened or secured to the bench or shelf. The following items
must be considered:
• The bench or shelf and it’s support(s) should be of sufficient strength and construction to support the
weight of a fully loaded dryer plus the weight of any other goods it is intended to support. The loaded
weight allowances are Dry-Soft 4, 35kg and Dry-Soft 6, 45kg.
• Stability of the appliance. The bench or shelf dimension must have at least the same width and
depth as that of the appliance to provide sufficient area to support the four rubberised ‘feet’ at the
base of the appliance and allow for slight movement that may occur during operation.
WALL MOUNTING
Position the appliance in accordance with the requirements that are listed under “POSITIONING OF
THE APPLIANCE” on page 13
If the dryer is to be wall mounted, the following must be considered:
• Only the Rinnai wall mounting bracket must be used (Order codes: DS4BKT for Dry-Soft 4 and
DS6BKT for Dry-Soft 6). Alternative brackets or wall mounting options are unsuitable.
• The wall and method for fastening the wall mounting bracket to the wall must be of sufficient
strength and construction to support the weight of a fully loaded dryer. The loaded weight
allowances are Dry-Soft 4, 35kg and Dry-Soft 6, 45kg.
• The four rubberised ‘feet’ at the base of the appliance must be securely fastened to the base of the
mounting bracket using the 4 mounting screws supplied (See “WALL MOUNTING BRACKET AND
DRYER INSTALLATION” on page 15).
Consult a qualified electrician if direct wiring is required as it must comply with the
requirements of AS 5601, AS 3000 and any other relevant local regulations.
