15. SERVICING & PARTS REPLACEMENT
Always turn off the gas supply and allow to cool completely before
commencing any servicing (The appliance inlet “T” connector incorporates an
isolating valve).
It is recommended that, at least once a year, the appliance is disconnected and
the fireplace opening checked and cleared of any debris.
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.
