MONOBLOCCO GHISA 750 - MONOBLOCCO IRONKER 750

11. SUMMER TIME

After having performed the cleaning of the hearth, of the stack and of the flue, removing completely the ash and other possible residuals,
close all doors of the hearth and the related registers.
It is suggested to perform the flue cleaning at least once a year; in the meantime, verify the actual state of the door seals, which do not
assure the good operation of the device, if they are not completely integral (i.e. if they do not adhere anymore to the door)! Therefore, it is
necessary to replace them.
In case of humidity of the room where the device is located, place the absorbing salts within the hearth.
To maintain the aesthetic appearance over time, protect the inside parts in cast iron with Vaseline.

12. 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!!!

12.1. GLASS CLEANING

After having checked that the door is completely shut (lowered), unlock the upper latch
clean the glass, then close the flap and lock the latch before lifting again the door.
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.

12.2. 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.

12.3. 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).
During the cleaning, it is necessary to remove the ash drawer, the grating, and the smoke deflectors from the device in order to ease the
fall of the soot. The deflectors can be easily extracted from their seats since they are not fastened using screws. Once the clearing has
been carried out, place them back in their seats
CAUTION: The lack of the deflectors causes a strong depression, with a too fast combustion, an excessive consumption of wood
with related overheating of the device.
