Always turn off the gas supply and make sure that the
appliance is cool before commencing any servicing.
•
Always test for gas soundness and spillage after

This product uses a fuel effect piece containing
Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCF), which are man-
made vitreous silicate fibres. Excessive exposure to this
material may cause temporary irritation to eyes, skin
and respiratory tract. Consequently, it makes sense to
take care when handling this article to ensure that the
release of dust is kept to a minimum. To ensure that
the release of fibres from this RCF article is kept to a
minimum, during 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 this article
we recommend that the replaced item is not broken up,
but is 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 this
article, 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.
