l. During its first period of use any protective coatings and oils will burn out of the appliance and it is wise to ventilate the room for the
first hour of use.
m. This appliance is fitted with an oxygen depletion sensing system, which automatically shuts off the gas supply to the fire if the
oxygen level in the room is depleted, due to lack of primary air, or obstructed flue (blocked chimney) that would lead to incomplete
combustion of the gas. It must not be tampered with and only replaced with a genuine Nu-Flame ODS.
n. In the event that the fire shuts down for any reason, attempt to restart it. If there is a continuing problem, call in a properly
qualified specialist engineer.
o. There are no user replaceable parts in the appliance apart from the batteries, for the Thermatronic Electronic Control System.
p. The chimney should be regularly checked to ensure that all the products of combustion are entering the flue & that there is no build
up of soot. If there is, the appliance must be serviced.
q. Coal & Wood Effect Parts are manufactured from RCF (Refractory Ceramic Fibre are supplied with this appliance, see Health &
Safety guidance).
Do not use real coals or wood as this is dangerous. If the simulated fuel bed components need renewing please obtain suitable
replacements from a Nu-Flame Stockist.
r. The fire must be installed in accordance with the rules in force and these Instructions it must be installed in front of a fireplace or
builders opening on a non combustible hearth as detailed in these Instructions.
s. No combustible materials e.g. curtains must be closer than 500mm to the fire.
t. For Fire Surround Applications a 150mm (6”) combustible shelf can be fitted above the fire provided it is 750mm above the Hearth.
u. The Fire can be installed into a suitably designed fire surround with a 150ºC Rating.
v. Explain to the customer that over time some wall staining will occur above the fire and this is due primarily to particles of dust
present in the hot convection air circulating up and over the fire/surround and sticking to the wall.
! IMPORTANT NOTE ! THE GLASS PANEL ON THIS FIRE WILL BECOME VERY HOT DURING
OPERATION - SEE ITEM ‘g.’ ABOVE.
It is quite normal for the fire to make popping and burbling sounds when in use, as would a solid fuel fire.

USER INSTRUCTIONS
Health & Safety Advice
Refractory Ceramic Fibre (RCF)
Advice when working with Fuel Bed Components including Installing, Servicing and Disposal.
The Fuel Effect parts and possible Linings of this fire are made from Refractory Ceramic Fibre (R.C.F.) a Class 2 Carcinogen which is
a material designed for this Application. Excessive exposure to these types of materials may cause temporary irritation to eyes, skin
and respiratory tract. Therefore take care when handling these articles to ensure dust is kept to a minimum.
It is not necessary to wear protective clothing when handling these articles 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.
To minimise the release of RCF fibres during installation and servicing a HEPA filtered vacuum is recommended to remove any dust
accumulated in and around the fire both before and after working on it.
When Servicing and if replacing these parts we do not recommend they are broken up but are sealed within a heavy duty polythene
Bag and labelled as “RCF waste”. This is not classified as “hazardous waste” and may be disposed of at a local licensed landfill site.

2. - LIGHTING & CONTROLLING THE FIRE
General
The fire is available with 3 Control Options: Manual Control (Fire is lit and adjusted manually), or Thermatronic Radio Frequency Electronic
Control System (Fire is lit & operated with a Handset) or the Thermostatic Thermatronic Radio Frequency Electronic Control System (Fire is
lit & operated with an Handset which also can control the room temperature plus other features).
2.1- LIGHTING & CONTROLLING THE FIRE - MANUAL CONTROL
Open the Door at the bottom of the fire by pulling at the right side.
a. Switching On/Ignition. Depress the control knob & turn counter clockwise. Gas will flow to the Pilot Burner (Pilot Burner is visible
looking down through the glass at the left side), the Piezo Igniter will give off first one, then, as you turn, a second high voltage spark & the
Pilot Burner will Light. (More than one attempt may have to be made on first lighting.)
Keep the Control Knob depressed for approximately 10 seconds to heat up the Thermocouple.
Turn the Control Knob fully counter clockwise to release gas to the Main Burner.
b. Control of Gas Flow. Turning the Control Knob clockwise reduces the gas flow from
Maximum to the Pre-Set Minimum Setting.
Turning between Maximum & Minimum does not actuate the Piezo Igniter. The Control Valve can
only be set on the Pilot by depressing the control knob & turning it to the pre-selected pilot position.
c. Switching Off. Press the Control Knob in at the Pilot Position & turn Clockwise to Off.
2.2- LIGHTING & CONTROLLING THE FIRE – Thermatronic & Thermatronic (Thermostatic) Remote Control Systems
The Remote Control Systems are both battery operated gas fire remote control systems that uses a microprocessor to provide the working
sequences needed by the fire, and when used with an oxypilot have all the safety features required by law and CE approval.
Commands are accepted by the microprocessor when buttons are pressed. An audible beep means that the command has been received,
and the push button should immediately be released to allow the control to operate .
Using the Thermatronic Remote Control System
Control can only be achieved if the Handset is pointed at the Fire. The red light will flash each time you press a button on the Handset.
a. Ignition. Simultaneously press and hold the red button and the right upper button (linked by line) until a short
acoustic signal confirms that the sequence has begun, then release the buttons. Continuous audible signals confirm that
ignition is in progress.
When pilot ignition is confirmed the motor will open the valve to maximum flame height – this takes about 30 seconds.
It is normal for condensation to appear on the glass on start-up. This will clear after a minute or so.
b. Flame Height Adjustment. Press the small flame button until the flame height is at the desired position. If you try
to go beyond the preset low flame minimum height the fire will turn off leaving the pilot burner alight (this is the standby
position). You will learn from experience the minimum preset flame height.
c. Relighting the Fire. To relight the fire from the standby position, or to increase the flame height from low flame,
simultaneously press and hold the large flame button until the desired flame height is achieved.
Please note that you can have the flame height anywhere between maximum and preset low.
For fine adjustment simply tap the small or large flame buttons.
d. Switching Off. Press the red/off button on the handset.
2.3 - LIGHTING & CONTROLLING THE THERMATRONIC (Thermostatic) REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM
Control can only be achieved if the Handset is pointed at the Fire.
You will see that the Handset as a screen with symbols and reference should be made to the following screen settings shown for each stage
of operation. With the fire in the off position the screen will look as shown below.

a. Battery replacement is recommended at the beginning of each heating season, or when an acoustic error message sounds at ignition.
b. Error Message – Long signals (0.8 second tone – 0.2 second break) during ignition – probable cause batteries in electronic receiver box
are nearly discharged.
c. Error Message – 5 second continuous tone – probable cause – cable disconnected or on/off switch on valve is in off position.
d. Batteries - Electronic Receiver Box - 4 x AA good quality alkaline - Handset - 1 x PP3 good quality alkaline.
e. To change the Handset battery slide open the plastic panel on the back of the Handset.
f. To change the Receiver Batteries remove the Ash Pan Cover and locate the electronic receiver box, underneath the fire on the
left hand side. Slide open the plastic cover to gain access to the battery compartment. You can detach the Receiver by pulling it off its
Velcro Pad to make access easier but remember to put it back in the same position under the metal shield.
Note: Only Change The Batteries When The Fire Is Cold
2.6 - RESETTING THE MERTIK MAXITROL LOGIC CIRCUITS - IF THE HANDSET DOES NOT WORK
ONLY APPLIES TO THE THERMATRONIC HAND HELD RADIO FREQUENCY CONTROLS
Basic Reset - It sometimes happens that (such as when the handset buttons are pressed out of sequence) the fire stops working
because the logic circuits get confused and need to be reset.
To do this, simply remove the 4 x AA batteries from the Receiver Box (see section 2.5f above), wait for 1 minute and then refit the batteries.
Wait for another minute and then point the handset at the fire and press the red/off button. Wait for another minute and then start the fire as
normal. If the fire does not start repeat the resetting procedure. If the fire still does not work a Full Reset can be tried (see next page).
Full Reset - If you obtain a new handset the control system will need to learn the handset’s unique code via a Full Reset.
Also, if the fire is not working and the Basic Reset (described on page 7) has not worked a Full Reset can be carried out:
Remove the Ash Pan Cover and locate the electronic Receiver Box.
Locate the Reset Hole on the side of the Receiver and using a pen press and hold in the Reset button until you hear two beeps.
The first beep is short and the second beep is long. After the second beep release the Reset Button.
Now on the Handset, within the next 20 seconds press and hold the Small Flame Button until you hear two additional short beeps
confirming the code is set in the Receiver.
If you hear one long beep the Code as not been set so repeat the procedure.
If after carrying out the above procedure the situation is not corrected it will be necessary to contact your Installer.
Note: For the Installation/Service Engineer - Resetting of the Handset & Control System is also covered in Section 21.1 page 32.

3. - CLEANING THE FIRE
Note: Marks on the Glass Panel are Not Covered by the Manufactures Warranty.
a. Important : Always Allow the fire to cool before carrying out any cleaning.
b. Please Note: The glass panel surface within the room will be marked by air borne particles as air circulates through the fire
from the room, this is quite normal and cannot be prevented.
So the glass surface within the room can be cleaned with proprietary glass cleaners and any residue removed and dried afterwards.
No Abrasive Cleaners Must be used.
c. Within the fire it is quite normal for soot and stains to build-up on the inside of the glass panel, this is why we advise that the glass
panel must be fully cleaned during the Annual Service, however you can remove the glass panel for cleaning as follows:
i. Remove the Ash Pan. Remove the Outer Frame Assembly, it is held in place with magnets quite tightly, Pull to Remove.
ii. Using the Screw Driver provided Slacken the 2 Screws at the Bottom Left and Right Corners Securing the Glass Panel, Swivel
the Brackets Off the Glass Panel then Ease it outward slightly at the base then Pull down and remove.
iii. To clean the glass panel use proprietary glass cleaners, however for stubborn stains use ‘T Cut Original’ and following treatment
remove all residue and polish with a dry cloth. Take care not to damage the door seal and reposition around the glass if necessary.
Note: The glass is etched with the Nu-Flame logo ensure it is at the bottom right hand corner when refitting the glass panel.
d. The outer surfaces of the fire can be cleaned with a damp cloth, do not use any abrasive cleaners.
For Stainless Steel finishes we recommend a small amount of Baby Oil.
! IMPORTANT ! The Fire Must Never be used without the Glass Panel in place or if the Glass Panel is in any way damaged.
4. - SERVICING
a. The fire should be Serviced Annually in accordance with the Gas Safety & Uses Regulations.
b. This fire contains no User Serviceable Parts apart from the batteries which are only used with the Thermatronic Control System option.
c. Servicing must be carried out by a Registered Installer.
d. For Servicing or Spare Parts contact your Installer quoting the Fire Name, Model and Serial Number, which can be found on the Data
Badge. To find the Data Badge/Plate; with the fire cool remove the Ash Pan, the Data Badge can be found at the base next to the
Control Knob.
e. In the event that the fire shuts down due to any reason, attempt to restart it. If there is a continuing problem, call in a properly qualified
specialist engineer.
f. Under No Circumstances must this fire be used without the Glass Panel or if it is broken damaged or cracked.
g. The Matrix in the fire is a Moulded Ceramic Fibre component incorporating Silicone Binders and you may notice that it develops
cracks during operation. This is natural shrinkage caused by exposure to high temperatures and is quite normal for the material and will
in no way affect the operation of the fire.

SITE SURVEYING - SURVEYING THE PROPERTY PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
THE FOLLOWING ARE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR SURVEYING AND ARE IN ADDITION TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF THESE
INSTRUCTIONS, NATIONAL STANDARDS AND BUILDING REGULATION REQUIREMENTS.
The following recommendations should be considered to try to avoid problems that will result in issues after the fire has been fitted.
a) Downdraught can be a major problem which may result in return visits with problems after the fire has been fitted so:
i) Check the geographical position of the property taking account of any known downdraught issues in the area.
ii) Check any existing Properties for any special chimney terminals that would indicate downdraught problems.
iii) Check any existing fires for signs of downdraught, e.g. discolouration above the fire.
iv) Ask the Customer if they ever suffer from wind blowing down the chimney.
b) With Pre-cast flues check the following:
i) Any signs of walls over heated both on adjoining walls and upstairs. Bring any issues found to the attention of the Customer.
ii) Check for any Cracks in the wall above the fire.
ii) Check the soundness of any connecting tubes in the loft area.
c) Take account of the type, size and height of the chimney when considering the suitability of the fire being considered.
For instance if the chimney is quite large or high a higher efficient fire may be more suitable or flue lining may need considering.
d) Take account of the fire previously fitted and if the heat output will be sufficient for the room size and heat requirements of the
room.
e) Check the condition and soundness of the chimney before proceeding with the installation or any building work.
f) Check any wall decoration around the fire for its suitability for withstanding temperatures especially with high efficient fires.
g) Take account of the size of the room any large windows ensuring that the fire being considered will provide sufficient heat.
Make the Customer aware if you feel this could be an issue.
h) Check if the suitability of the Control being considered will meet the Customers requirements, specifically with people with arthritic
problems. Consider if a High level or Remote Control System would be more suitable and make the Customer aware of the
advantages.
i) If an high efficient fire is being considered into an existing fire surround determine if it is a suitable material, for example some
micro marble surrounds are prone to discolouration. Check for any signs of discolouration and make the Customer aware of the
possible problem. You may wish to advise that a more suitable Fire Surround be considered.
j) Carry out a gas soundness check on the current installation prior to Installation.
We would recommend that if you come across known problems in your area that you add them to the above survey points.
If you are unsure of any aspect of the Installation seek expert advice.

m. CHECK FLUE PULL. Apply a smoke match or smoke generator to the flue opening at hearth level and observe smoke.
If there is a definite flow into the flue aperture, proceed with installation. If there is not a definite flow into the flue aperture,
preheat the flue for approximately 10 minutes and re-test. If there is not a definite flow towards the flue aperture the flue may
need attention.
DO NOT FIT THE APPLIANCE, SEEK EXPERT ADVICE.
9. - VENTILATION
a. No additional purpose provided ventilation is normally required for the fire when installed in the UK; however this must be
confirmed by the Spillage Test, see Section 18.2.
b. For other Countries refer to National Regulations and Local Codes.
c. This appliance is fitted with an oxygen depletion sensing system, which automatically shuts off the gas supply to the fire if the
oxygen level in the room is depleted, due to lack of primary air, or obstructed flue that would lead to incomplete combustion of the
gas. It must not be tampered with and only replaced with a genuine Nu-Flame ODS Pilot.
10. - GAS SUPPLY
It Is Recommended to Check The Next Section as Building Work May Affect the Gas Supply Routing.
a. Carry out a gas soundness test before working on the gas supply.
b. Gas supply provision should be made in accordance with the latest Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations as amended.
c. Confirm that the fire has been supplied for the correct gas to be used by checking the Data Badge in the base of the fire.
d. A route for a concealed gas supply is provided through a hole in the rear of the fire, at a position of 83.5mm to the left of the centre
of the fire and 28mm up from the base of the Fireplace/Builders opening. An isolation elbow is provided at the control inlet.
Your 8mm gas supply pipe needs to protrude through the back of the convector box by approximately 145mm to achieve a neat
connection onto the back of the isolator elbow on the burner. (This applies to both Manually Controlled and Thermatronic
Radio Frequency Controlled burners.)
e. Where the gas supply passes through walls, floors, voids, concrete and wall cavities the supply should be sleeved.
f. Determine the gas supply pipe size required taking into account any other gas appliances.
g. Determine where the gas supply pipe needs to terminate and fit the 8mm compression isolation/pressure test elbow provided.
h. In common with all other gas appliances, dirt and debris in the gas system can block the valve and gas injectors on this
appliance, and faults caused by this are not covered by the guarantee.
Therefore it is important that all gas pipes must be purged of both air and debris.
i If you suspect that there may still be dirt and/or debris in the gas system, fit a filter in the pipeline, before the gas isolation/pressure
test elbow.
J. Do not use jointing compound on any compression fittings on the fire. The use of jointing compound on the compression joints on
this appliance will possibly invalidate the guarantee, as it can get into the control mechanism and cause a malfunction.
k. Seal off the isolation/pressure test elbow and check all gas connections for gas soundness before proceeding to fit the fire.
! IMPORTANT NOTE ! Always reseal the pressure test point and check that it is gas tight.
(This accounts for a lot of recalls.)

h. The Fire Surround must be fully sealed to the Fireplace Opening to ensure a good flue seal.
i. The Fireplace Opening should have provision for a gas supply through the rear, see Section 10 Gas Supply.
j. The Thermatronic fire is fitted with Electronic Equipment, which is sensitive to dampness and high humidity so it is very
important that any rendering/building work is allowed to thoroughly dry out before Installation.
! IMPORTANT NOTE ! Dry lined walls – ensure that any air gaps between the back of the plasterboard and wall are
sealed around the builders opening or fireplace as this can affect flue pull and wall staining.
11.3 - CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS AND SHELVES (Ref: Diagram in section 11.1)
a. A 150mm deep non combustible shelf can be fitted above the fire and should be positioned at least 680mm above the hearth.
For deeper non-combustible shelves they must be raised a further 25mm for every extra 25mm of depth.
b. A 150mm combustible shelf can be fitted above the fire but must be positioned at least 750mm above the hearth.
For deeper combustible shelves they must be raised a further 25mm for every extra 25mm of depth.
c. The sidewalls of a combustible fire surround can be 250mm from the inside of the builders/fireplace opening provided its depth is
no more than 150mm, however this must be increased by 25mm per side for every extra 25mm of depth.

14.1 - FITTING The Silicone Sealing Strip (Heat Engine & Fenton Case)
Heat Engine.
It is very important that a good seal is achieved between the Heat Engine Back Box flanges and the front of the
fireplace back panel/wall for safety reasons and to achieve maximum efficiency. Take the self adhesive silicone
sealing strip from the fitting kit and neatly apply to the flanges of the back box as shown,
(apply as close to the edge as possible), cutting to the appropriate lengths as required.
To also ensure there is a good seal between the base of the Heat Engine and the hearth apply a length of
self adhesive silicone sealing strip to along fire bottom flange of the back box.
The foam seals will ensure that when the Heat Engine is fixed to the Fireplace/Builders opening it will be fully
sealed ensuring the flue draw isn’t affected.
Fenton Case
Also apply Sealing Foam to the back flanges of the Fenton case.
14.2 - FITTING THE Fire –reference should be made to the photographs
a. Using a Dust Sheet or equivalent protect the area around the Fire Installation.
b. Remove the Fire from the box and lay it on its back. Using the Screw Driver provided slacken the
2 Screws at the Bottom Left and Right corners Securing the Glass Frame and ease it
outward slightly at the base then pull down and remove.
! IMPORTANT NOTE ! TAKE GREAT CARE WHEN WORKING INSIDE THE FIRE NOT TO MARK THE CERAMIC LINING PANELS.
c. Now with the fire on its Base, now remove the Glass Frame Assembly
by firstly remove the 2 screws holding Front Coal Support.
d. Now remove the Burner Assembly by taking out the 2 screws towards the back then slide the
Assembly forward taking care not to Mark the Liners, if the fire is fitted with a Remote Control
System then slide out the Receiver Box noting how it fits snuggle at the right side.
e. Remove the Debris Plate at the back by removing the 2 screws allowing access through the Debris Duct for fitting the Gas Supply.
f. There are fixing holes in the front side flanges which can be used if there is sufficient strong material for fixing. We don’t however
recommend drilling/fixing through a Fire Surround Back Panel as this could later cause cracking.
We do however recommend our cable fixing system which is supplied to secure the unit into the fireplace.
The cable fixing system will also pull the unit tight back into the fireplace to make a good seal.
This is very important to ensure efficient and safe operation of the fire.
See details with diagram of the Cable Fixing System on the next page .
14. FIXING THE FIRE

19
g. Make reference to the diagram below.
h. There are 2 cables supplied; 1 to be used each side of the unit.
and Working at 200mm centres in the builders opening drill the lower holes 27mm up from the base and drill the higher holes 510mm up
from the base see drawing below. Secure the 4 Eyebolts supplied with the Raw plugs to the back of the fireplace.
Ensure the Eyebolts are fully screwed in.
IMPORTANT: ENSURE THE MATERIAL THE EYEBOLT/RAWPLUG IS FIXED INTO IS SOLID AND SOUND.
If the fixing is not sound the Rawlplug/Eyebolt will be pulled out and the fire will not be sealed to the Fireplace Opening.
Note: With the minimum depth fireplace enclosure it may be necessary to sink the Eye Bolt Heads into the Brickwork.
Reference Should Be Made To The Diagram Below
i. There are 2 holes in the Back Box of the fire; 1 each side towards the top. Feed a cable through each hole.
j. Then feed the cables though the eyebolts on either side and then through the holes in the back of the Back Box.
k. Slide the Fire part way up against the fireplace (leaving it sticking out approximately 50mm) checking the gas supply pipe and
isolation/pressure test elbow clears through the Debris Duct into the front of the Fire.
l. Slide the Fire fully home ensuring that the sealing strips on the rear of the Back Box outer frame stay in position to make a seal against
the fireplace back panel. While sliding the unit into the fireplace opening pull on the excess cable.
m. Locate the supply pipe into the slot in the Debris Opening and replace the Debris Plate.
n. The Cable Fix Adjuster and Lock Screw can now be fitted through the hole in the Back Box onto the cable and tightened up to tension the
fire back into the fireplace.
The fire should be secure and not liable to movement.
Surplus fixing cable MUST NOT be cut off and must be tucked back through the central hole in the Back Box.
This is particularly important with the Thermatronic Control System to keep the cables away from any electronics.
o. If any of the silicone sealing strips are not compressed and/or if there are gaps they must be filled with a suitable sealant, ideally high
temperature silicone or fireclay. Refit the Burner/Controls Assembly with the 2 screws and with the Thermatronic Control System slide the
Receiver Box into place if it as come out of place.
IMPORTANT : AFTER FITING THE PIPEWORK ENSURE THE PIPES ARE FREE OF DEBRIS AS THIS CAN CAUSE MAJOR ISSUES.
p. Connect the isolation/pressure test elbow to the control valve and with it fully open check the joint for gas soundness.
q. Check that all gas connections are sound. The appliance has been factory tested; however the connections may have been disturbed in
transit or storage.
! IMPORTANT NOTE ! Always reseal the pressure test point and check that it is gas tight. (This accounts for a lot of recalls.)
Hole Positions in back of

15. - ARRANGEMENT OF THE FUEL EFFECT.
Fitting the Fuel Effect Parts
Remove all the Fuel Effect parts & familiarise yourself with each part. The Fuel Effect depends on the one ordered be it the Coal Fuel
Bed or the Wood Fuel Bed.
Both the Coal and Wood Fuel Effects have a common Back Matrix (sits at the back of the burner, see ‘a’ below).
The additional Fuel Effect Parts are detailed below.
Coal Fuel Bed:
You will see that there are 3 individually wrapped Large Coals pieces plus three small bags containing the
following Loose Coals : 3off Long Larger ‘K’ coals, 11off marked ‘J’ Coals and 6off marked ‘G’ Small coals.
Wood Fuel Bed:
You will see there are 3 individually wrapped Large Wood pieces plus 5off Smaller Wood pieces marked 1 to 5.
! Tip ! TAKE CARE NOT TO DAMAGE THE LINER PANELS INSIDE THE FIRE WHEN FITTING THE FUEL BED.
The First Stage ‘a’ is common to both the Coal & Wood Effects
a. Fit the Rear Matrix behind the Burner as shown.
Ensure it is sat up against the back with the word
‘TOP’ facing you.
FOR COAL EFFECT PLEASE READ ON FOR WOOD EFFECT TURN TO PAGE 24
15.1 - ARRANGING THE COAL EFFECT
a. Slide the Front Moulded Coal
into positions between Front Heat
Shield and Burner as shown.
Health & Safety Advice
Refractory Ceramic Fibre (RCF)
Advice when working with Fuel Bed Components including Installing, Servicing and Disposal.
The Fuel Effect parts and possible Linings of this fire are made from Refractory Ceramic Fibre (R.C.F.) a Class 2 Carcinogen which is
a material designed for this Application. Excessive exposure to these types of materials may cause temporary irritation to eyes, skin
and respiratory tract. Therefore take care when handling these articles to ensure dust is kept to a minimum.
It is not necessary to wear protective clothing when handling these articles 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.
To minimise the release of RCF fibres during installation and servicing a HEPA filtered vacuum is recommended to remove any dust
accumulated in and around the fire both before and after working on it.
When Servicing and if replacing these parts we do not recommend they are broken up but are sealed within a heavy duty polythene
Bag and labelled as “RCF waste”. This is not classified as “hazardous waste” and may be disposed of at a local licensed landfill site.
