2. Important Safety Information and Installation

WARNING: Installation of water heaters requires specific qualifications. Installation by unqualified personnel may lead to serious accidents. Always entrust installation work to a qualified professional.

This remote control is designed for use with Noritz water heaters that do not have an auto-stop function for hot water supply. Ensure compatibility with your water heater model before installation.

2.1 Pre-Installation Checks

• Verify that the product model RC-7606M is compatible with your Noritz water heater (e.g., GQ-1637WE, GQ-1637WE-T, GQ-1637WE-C, GQ-1637WE-TB series).
• Confirm that the installation location is suitable for a kitchen remote control.

2.2 Installation Procedure (Professional Installation Required)

Due to the nature of water heater installations, detailed steps are omitted here. A qualified technician will perform the following:

1. Disconnect power to the water heater.
2. Mount the remote control unit in the desired kitchen location.
3. Connect the remote control wiring to the water heater according to manufacturer specifications.
4. Restore power and test the system for proper operation.

3. Operating Instructions

The RC-7606M remote control allows you to manage hot water supply for your Noritz water heater. This model features an "auto-stop-less" function, meaning the hot water supply will continue until manually stopped.

3.1 Basic Operation

1. Power On/Off: Press the 運転入/切 (Operation ON/OFF) button to turn the water heater operation on or off.
2. Temperature Setting: Use the ▲ (Up) and ▼ (Down) buttons to adjust the desired hot water temperature. The current temperature will be displayed on the digital screen.
3. Water Volume Setting: Press the 湯量設定 (Water Volume Setting) button to adjust the water volume for bath filling.

3.2 Auto-Stop-Less Function Explained

For water heaters with the "auto-stop-less" feature, the hot water supply process for bath filling is as follows:

1. Open the hot water faucet to start filling the bathtub.
2. The amount of hot water and temperature can be set using the kitchen (or bathroom) remote control.
3. When the bathtub is full, the kitchen (or bathroom) remote control will sound a buzzer to notify you.
4. IMPORTANT: The hot water supply will continue even after the buzzer sounds. You must manually close the hot water faucet to stop the supply.

Caution:

• If you use hot water at the kitchen sink or washbasin while the bathtub is filling and the buzzer is set, the actual water volume when the buzzer sounds may be less than the set amount.

4. Maintenance

To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your Noritz RC-7606M kitchen remote control, follow these general maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Wipe the surface of the remote control with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish or internal components.
• Inspection: Periodically check for any visible damage to the unit or its wiring. If any damage is found, contact a qualified technician for inspection and repair.
• Avoid Water Exposure: While designed for kitchen environments, avoid direct water splashes or excessive moisture, which could lead to malfunction.

5. Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your Noritz RC-7606M kitchen remote control, consider the following basic troubleshooting steps. For complex issues, always contact a qualified service technician.

• No Display/No Power:
  • Check if the water heater's main power supply is on.
  • Ensure the remote control's wiring connections are secure (this should be checked by a professional).
• Incorrect Temperature/Water Volume:
  • Verify the settings on the remote control.
  • Ensure the water heater itself is functioning correctly.
• Buzzer Not Sounding or Incorrectly:
  • Confirm that the buzzer function is enabled (if applicable, check water heater manual).
