Majolicas (If Present); Products Made Of Natural Stone (If Present); Varnished Products (If Present); Enamelled Products (If Present) - LA NORDICA ITALY Built IN Instructions Pour L'installation, L'utilisation Et L'entretien

ITALY BUILT IN
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).

12.4. MAJOLICAS (If present)

La NORDICA has chosen majolica tiles, which are the result of high-quality artisan work. As they are completely carried out by hand, the
majolica may present crackles, speckles, and shadings. These characteristics certify their precious origin.
Enamel and majolica, due to their different coefficient of dilatation, produce microcrackles, which show their authentic feature.
For the cleaning of the majolica we suggest you to use a soft and dry cloth; if you use a detergent or liquid, the latter might soak in
and highlight the crackles permanently.

12.5. PRODUCTS MADE OF NATURAL STONE (If present)

Natural stone has to be cleaned with very thin abrasive paper or with an abrasive sponge. Do NOT use any cleanser or fluid.

12.6. 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.

12.7. 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.

12.8. 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.

12.9. LATERAL HANDRAIL (If present)

The handles, the handrail and the tank water (cookers) should be cleaned to cold with a soft cloth and alcohol . DO NOT use abrasives
or solvents.

12.10. CLEANING OF THE HEARTH GRATE

IMPORTANT: if for whatever reason the grill is removed from the furnace, take care to reassemble it with the wider part of the slit facing
downwards (See Picture 8 at page

12.11. CAST IRON COOKING PLATE AND RINGS

IMPORTANT: to avoid rust DO NOT forget pots or pans on the cold cooking plate. This would create rust rings, unpleasant to see and
difficult to remove.
The cast iron cooking plate and the cast iron rings needs to be periodically cleaned by using sandpaper (grain 150) without touching
the enamelled parts..
To carry out the cleaning operation remove the smoke outlet spigot and the smoke pipe. The smoke compartment can be cleaned from the
front side of the oven (see chap. CLEANING SMOKE COMPARTMENT COOKERS) or from the top. In this case remove the cast iron rings
and the cooking plate, as well the smoke outlet spigot and the smoke pipe. The cleaning can be carried out by using a brush and a hoover.
(Where existing STANLESS STEEL frame) Once you have placed the cast iron cooking plate, make sure to have always 3 mm in-between
the cooking plate and the STAINLESS STEEL frame. This gap is important because of the thermal expansions and to avoid chromatic
changes of the STAINLESS STEEL frame when hot.
ATTENTION: once the cleaning operations are terminated all the parts have to be re-assembled hermetically.

12.12. MAINTENANCE OF THE OVEN (where existing)

To avoid the possible forming of rust it is recommended:
- To let the steam getting out of the oven to reduce the formation of any condensation by opening the door briefly and carefully (1 or 2
times, or more often in case of cooking food very humid and with longer cooking times);
- Remove the food from the oven once cooked. Letting the food to chill in the oven at a temperature below 150 °C results in the forming
of condensation;
- After cooking, leave the oven door partially open to dry out any condensation;
- In case humidity formed inside the oven, we suggest you to treat with neutral vaseline the inside part of the cast iron door.
- Repeat the treatment with the neutral vaseline on the inside part of the cast iron door every 3-6 months, depending of the frequency
of the use of the oven;
- In case of presence of rust on the inside part of the cast iron door, remove the rust by using abrasive material and then treat the cast
iron surface with neutral vaseline.
In order to ensure the quality of the foods that are cooked in the oven, the internal parts of the cast iron doors have NOT been treated with
any product.
