16. SERVICING & PARTS REPLACEMENT
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 irritation to eyes, skin and respiratory tract.
Consequently, it is important 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. RCF waste is classed as a stable, non-reactive
hazardous waste and may be disposed at a landfill licensed to accept such
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.
!
Check that the appliance is clean and that soot or debris is not blocking the gaps
between the ceramic fuel effect pieces causing an imperfect flame.
!
Check that soot or debris is not impairing the electrode spark or pilot burner.
!
Check that soot or debris is not blocking any of the holes in the main burner.
!
After servicing, make sure that the ceramic fuel effect pieces are replaced
correctly as described in the installation instructions.
!
Always test for gas soundness and spillage after servicing the appliance.
16.1 To remove the fascia.
1.
Remove the ceramic fuel effect.
2.
Carefully lift the fascia casting and pull forward to
remove (See figure 27).
3.
The fascia is held in place by four retaining plates at
the back of the fascia. These slot into four retaining
brackets on the hotbox. To remove the fascia, hold the
sides of the fascia and lift upward and forward. The
fascia should lift clear of the hotbox. Do not lift too high
before pulling clear as the bottom of the fascia will foul
the control knob (See figure 28).
