The model number (403FT) has either been discontinued, changed or is incorrect. However, Model # RHE309FT closely matches the heater you described and has the timer and temperature features you are wanting to preset.

You may download and print the manual from the link below for future reference.

On the data plate on the heater it will say NG for nat gas or LP for bottle gas

Kym,
Yes, if you want to use the humidifier function. No, if you don't. It's just an option.

Below is a link to a full manual for your heater. Check out page 57 for full explaination on this function .

You may be able to help me with my 403FT.
I have nothing coming up on my control panel no lights anywhere.
The power supply is all good so it has to be within the heater.
Can't see a fuse able link.

If you smell gas in a Rinnai you have a big issue. This heater is what is called a direct vent heater with an electronic ignition so the combustion chamber is sealed and the smell of gas is an indication that you have a gas leak. Please call a professional today.

all energysavers have the same controls so any manual will do. www.rinnai.co.nz navigate to Tradesmart, space heating, energysavers.

Red filter light means the filter is blocked.
its located directly on the back of the heater and the wall spacer, from the control panel, its about 4 inches back.
Pull it up, clean reinstall

Check your gas supply is it turn on ?

Remove the two screws on the side trim. Remove the two top screws from the filter panel. Reach behind the heater and pull the sock down on the vent pipe. unclip the two clamps holding the vent pipe together. Remove the plastic elbow off of the vent termination. Slide the heater to the left to slide the vent pipe off of the vent termination. Remove the gas line after shutting the gas off.
