Coal set
-The coal set contains Refractory
Ceramic Fibres (R.C.F), which are man
made vitreous silicate fibres. Excessive
exposure to these materials may cause
temporary irritation to the eyes, skin and
respiratory tract. Care must be taken when
handling these items to ensure the release of
dust particles is kept to a minimum. To
ensure that the release of fibre from these
items is kept to a minimum, during
installation and servicing it is recommended
that a vacuum cleaner fitted with H.E.P.A.
filters is used to remove any dust, soot or
any other debris accumulated in and around
the appliance. This should be performed
before and after the installation. It is
recommended that any replacement item(s)
are not broken up but sealed within a heavy
duty polythene bag and clearly labelled
"R.C.F. waste". This is not classified as
"hazardous waste" and may be disposed of
at a tipping site licensed for the disposal of
industrial waste. Protective clothing is not
required when handling these items but it is
recommended that gloves are worn and
normal hygiene rules are followed.
Always wash your hands before eating or
drinking.
• In the event of a gas emergency, consult the
telephone directory and ask for your local
gas supplier.
