Important Information
This product contains 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. Care must be taken when handling these articles to ensure the
release of dust or fibres is kept to a minimum. To ensure that the
release of fibres from these articles is kept to a minimum, during
installation and servicing it is recommended that a H.E.P.A. filtered
vacuum is used to remove any dust, soot or other debris
accumulated in and around the appliance. This should be performed
before and after working on the installation. It is recommended that
any replaced item(s) are not broken up but sealed within heavy duty
polythene bags and clearly labelled "R.C.F. 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 it is recommended that
gloves are worn and the normal hygiene rules of not smoking, eating
or drinking in the work area are followed and always wash hands
before eating or drinking.
