FLO'
material, provide suitable insulation (DIMENSIONS ACCORDING TO REGIONAL REGULATIONS). With a flammable floor the
appliance must be installed on a 12 cm thick stone or concrete slab.
• Make sure that there is adequate ventilation in the room where the appliance is to be installed, with particular attention to windows
and doors with tight closing (seal ropes).
• Do not install the appliance in rooms containing collective ventilation ducts, hoods with or without extractor, type B gas appliances,
heat pumps, or other appliances that, operating at the same time, can put the room in depression (ref. UNI 10683 standard).
• Make sure that the flue and the pipes to which the appliance will be connected are suitable for its operation. It is NOT allowed the
connection of various appliances to the same chimney.
• The diameter of the opening for connection to the chimney must at least correspond to the diameter of the flue gas pipe. The
opening must be equipped with a wall connection for the insertion of the exhaust pipe and a rosette.
• The installation must be appropriate and has to allow the cleaning and maintenance of the product and the flue.
La NORDICA S.p.A. declines all responsibility for damage to things and/or persons caused by the system. In addition, it is not
responsible for any product modified without authorisation and even less for the use of non original spare parts.
Your regular local chimney sweep must be informed about the installation of the appliance so that he can check the correct connection to
the chimney.

4. CONNECTION AND MAINTENANCE OF VENTILATION

The control unit and the plant must be installed and connected by authorized personnel according to the standards in force (see
chapter GENERAL PRECAUTIONS).
ATTENTION: the control unit and the feeding cable must not be in contact with hot parts.
On our products, it is possible to install ventilation kits suitable to improve the distribution of heat by ventilation only either of the installation
room.
For the connection of the ventilation kit, please see
The Kit is made up of a centrifugal fan, a lighting and adjustment control unit, and a (TM) thermostat that lets the fan start when the device
is properly heated and lets it stop when the fan is partially cold.
The lighting and the adjustment is carried out through the proper standard supplied control unit that has to be installed far from any direct
heat source.
CONNECTION: Connect the power supply cable of the control unit to a bipolar switch respecting at least a 3 mm distance between the
contacts (power supply 230V~ 50/ Hz, it is necessary to provide for the correct connection to the grounding plant).
WARNING: The COMMAND must be connected to the mains with a differential line cut-off switch according to the regulations
in force. Correct operation of the command is assured only for the proper motor for which it has been manufactured.
Improper use relieves the manufacturer from each responsibility.

5. FIRE SAFETY

When installing the product, the following safety measures must be observed:
a) In order to ensure sufficient thermal insulation, respect the minimum safety distance from objects or furnishing components flammable
and sensitive to heat (furniture, wood sheathings, fabrics. etc.) and from materials with flammable structure (see
A). All the minimum safety distances are shown on the product data plate and lower values must not be used.
b) In front of the furnace door, in the radiation area there must be no flammable or heat-sensitive objects or material at a distance of less
than 100 cm. This distance can be reduced to 40 cm where a rear-ventilated, heat-resistant protection device is installed in front of the
whole component to protect.
c) If the product is installed on a non totally refractory floor, one must foresee a fireproof background. The floors made of inflammable
material, such as moquette, parquet or cork etc., must be replaced by a layer of no-inflammable material, for instance ceramic, stone,
glass or steel etc. (size according to regional law). In case the replacement of the floor is not possible, the appliance shall be
placed on a minimum 12 cm thick slab made of stone or concrete. The base must extend at least 50 cm at the front and at least
30 cm at the sides, in addition to the opening of the loading door (see
d) No flammable components (e.g. wall units) must be present above the product.
The Product must always operate exclusively with the ash drawer inserted. The solid combustion residues (ash) must be collected in a
sealed, fire resistant container. The Product must never be on in the presence of gaseous emissions or vapours (for example glue for
linoleum, petrol etc.). Never deposit flammable materials near the Product.
During combustion, thermal energy is released which leads to considerable heating of the surfaces, doors, handles, controls, glass parts,
the flue gas pipe and possibly the front part of the appliance. Avoid contact with these elements unless using suitable protective
clothing or accessories (heat resistant gloves, control devices).
Ensure children are aware of these dangers and keep them away from the furnace when it is on.
When using the wrong fuel or one which is too damp, due to deposits present in the flue, a flue fire is possible.
5.1.

IN A EMERGENCY

If there is a fire in the flue connection :
a) Close the loading door and the ash drawer door
b) Close the comburent air registers
c) Use carbon dioxide ( CO
d) Request the immediate intervention of the Fire Brigade
DO NOT PUT OUT THE FIRE WITH WATER.
When the flue stops burning, have it checked by a specialist to identify any cracks or permeable points.
