Re-fit the glass frame assembly before proceeding.
Warning : Use only the log fuel-bed supplied with the fire. When replacing
the log fuel-bed remove the old log fuel-bed and discard it. Fit a complete
log fuel-bed from the manufacturer, only use genuine replacements.
THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT IS APPLICABLE TO ALL FUEL-BED TYPES
This appliance uses fuel effect pieces containing Refractory Ceramic Fibres (R.C.F.),
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 R.C.F. arti-
cles is kept to a minimum, during installation & 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 arrticles,
but we do 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.
