Valor Dream Fireslid 9500433 Installer'S Manual Download Page 4

This product uses fuel effect pieces containing
Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCF), which 
are man-made vitreous silicate fibres. Excessive
exposure to these materials may cause 
temporary irritation to eyes, skin and respiratory
tract. Consequently, it makes sense to 
take care when handling these articles to ensure
that the release of dust is kept to a 
minimum. To ensure that the release of fibres
from these RCF articles is kept to a 
minimum, during installation and servicing we
recommend that you use a HEPA 
filtered vacuum to remove any dust and soot
accumulated in and around the fire before 
and after working on the fire. When replacing
these articles we recommend that the 
replaced items are not broken up, but are sealed
within a heavy duty polythene bag, 
clearly labelled as RCF 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
articles, but we recommend you follow the 
normal hygiene rules of not smoking, eating or
drinking in the work area and always 
wash your hands before eating or drinking.
This appliance does not contain any component
manufactured from asbestos or 
asbestos related products.
The appliance data label is on a tie below the
burner and is visible when the bottom 
front cover is removed.
