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
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. Please contact your specialized retailer if you require spare parts. YOU MUsT NOT MAkE
ANY CHANgEs TO THE DEvICE!!!
vARNIsHED PRODUCTs (If PREsENT)
After some years of product use a change in the varnished details colour is totally normal. This is due to the considerable temperature range
the product is subject to whenever in use and to the varnish ageing of time passing by.
ATTENTION: before any possible application of the new varnish, do clean and remove all the traces from the surface which has to
be varnished.
ENAMELLED PRODUCTs (If PREsENT)
For the cleaning of enamelled surfaces use soap water or NOT aggressive and NOT chemically abrasive detergents.
After the cleaning do NOT let soapy water or any cleanser dry but remove them immediately.
DO NOT use sandpaper or steel wool.
CHROMIUM-COMPONENTs (If PREsENT)
If the components become bluish due to overheating, this can be solved with a suitable product for cleaning. DO NOT use abrasives or
solvents.
CLEANINg OUT THE AsHEs
All the devices are equipped with a hearth grating and an ash drawer for the collection of the ashes
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 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).
