OPERATION DURING TRANSITION PERIODS
During transition periods when the external temperatures are higher, if there is a sudden increase of temperature it can happen that
the combustion gases inside the flue cannot be completely sucked up.
The exhaust gases do not come out completely (intense smell of gas). In this case, shake the grating more frequently and increase
the air for the combustion. Then, load a reduced quantity of fuel in order to permit a rapid burning (growing up of the flames) and the
stabilization of the draught.
Then, check that all openings for the cleaning and the connections to the stack are air-tight. In case of doubt, do not operate the
product.
MAINTENANCE AND CARE
Check the external air intake, by cleaning it, at least once a year. The stack must be regularly swept by the chimney sweeper.
Let your chimney sweeper in charge of your area check the regular installation of the device, the connection to the stack and the
aeration.
IMPORTANT: The maintenance must be carried out only and exclusively with cold device .You should only use spare parts
approved and supplied by La NORDICA S.p.A. . Please contact your specialized retailer if you require spare parts. YOU MUST
NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES TO THE DEVICE!!!
GLASS CLEANING
Thanks to a specific inlet of secondary air, the accumulation of dirty sediments on the glass-door is reduced with efficacy. Nevertheless
this can never be avoided by using solid fuels ( particularly wet wood ) and it has not to be understood as a defect of the appliance.
IMPORTANT: The cleaning of the sight glass must be carried out only and exclusively with cold device to avoid the explosion
of the same. For the cleaning, it is possible to use specific products or a wet newspaper paper ball passed in the ash to rub it.
Do not use cloths, abrasive or chemically aggressive products by cleaning the hearth glass.
The correct lighting phase, the use of proper quantities and types of fuels, the correct position of the secondary air regulator, enough
draught of the chimney-flue and the presence of combustion air are the essential elements for the optimal functioning of the appliance
and for the cleaning of the glass.
BREAK OF GLASSES: Given that the glass-ceramic glasses resist up to a heat shock of 750°C, they are not subject to
thermal shocks. Their break can be caused only by mechanic shocks (bumps or violent closure of the door, etc.). Therefore,
their replacement is not included in the warranty.
CLEANING OUT THE ASHES
All the devices are equipped with a hearth grating and an ash drawer for the collection of the ashes.
It is suggested to empty periodically the ash drawer and to avoid it fills completely in order not to overheat the grating. Moreover, it is
suggested to leave always 3-4 cm of ash in the hearth.
CAUTION: The ashes removed from the hearth have to be stored in a container made of fire-resistant material equipped
with an air-tight cover. The container has to be placed on a fire-resistant floor, far from flammable materials up to the
switching off and complete cooling.
CLEANING THE FLUE
The correct lighting phase, the use of proper quantities and types of fuels, the correct position of the secondary air regulator, enough
draught of the chimney-flue and the presence of combustion air are the essential elements for the optimal functioning of the appliance.
The device should be completely cleaned at least once a year or every time it is a needed (in case of bad working and low yield). An
excessive deposit of soot can cause problems in the discharge of smokes and fire in the flue.
The cleaning must be carried out exclusively with cold equipment. This operation should be carried out by a chimney sweeper
who can simultaneously perform an audit of the flue (checking of possible deposits).
