UsE OF THE OvEN (IF PREsENT)

Thanks to the air flow for the combustion, the temperature of the oven may become remarkably affected. A sufficient flue of the chimney and
of the channels, well cleaned for the flow of burning smokes around the oven are fundamental for a good cooking result. Thick cakes and big
roasts must be introduced in the lowest level. Flat cakes and biscuits must reach the medium level. The upper level may be used to heat or grill.
The oven pan and the chrome plated oven grille may be located on different plans (see chapter Technical Description - ACCEssORIEs).
When cooking food with high humidity, cakes with fruit or fruit itself, water of condensation will be produced. During the cooking process
some water vapour in the form of drops of condensed water can deposit onto the top and the side of the door. It is a physical phenomenon.
By opening the door briefly and carefully (1 or 2 times, or even often in case of longer cooking times) you can let out the steam from the
cooking compartment and reduce condensation significantly.

OPERATION IN 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-tigh. In case of doubt, DO NOT operate
the product.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE

ALWAYs FOLLOW THE INsTRUCTIONs IN COMPLETE sAFETY!
• Make sure that the power cord is unplugged (if present).
• That the generator is cold all over.
• The ashes are completely cold.
• Ensure efficient air exchange in the room during the product cleaning operations.
• Poor cleaning will compromise correct operation and safety!

PERIODIC CLEANINg UNDER UsER's REsPONsIBILITY

The periodic cleaning operations, as indicated in this use and maintenance manual, must be performed with the utmost care after reading the
instructions, procedures and frequency described in this use and maintenance manual.
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 AND CARE 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.
