Use Of The Oven (If Present); Operation In Transition Periods; Maintenance And Care; Periodic Cleaning Under User's Responsibility - Nordica VERONA XXL Manuel Utilisateur

Besides the adjustment of the air for the combustion, the intensity of the combustion and consequently the thermal performance of the
device is influenced by the stack. A good draught of the stack requires a stricter adjustment of air for combustion, while a poor draught
requires a more precise adjustment of air for combustion.
To verify the good combustion, check whether the smoke coming out from the stack is transparent.
If it is white, it means that the device is not properly adjusted or the wood is too wet; if instead the smoke is gray or black, it signals that the
combustion is not complete (it is necessary a greater quantity of secondary air).
WARNINg: WHEN FUEL IS ADDED ONTO THE EMBERS IN THE ABSENCE OF A FLAME, A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF FUMES
MAY DEVELOP. sHOULD THIs HAPPEN, AN EXPLOsIVE MIXTURE Of gAs AND AIR MAY fORM, AND IN EXTREME CAsEs
AN EXPLOsION MAY OCCUR. fOR sAfETY REAsONs IT Is ADVIsABLE TO PERfORM A NEW LIgHTINg PROCEDURE

UsE Of THE OVEN (IF PRESENT)

The oven is equipped with a light, which turns on by pulling out slightly the lever C. For replacement see chap. MANTEINANCE OF THE OVEN.
Place the smoke controller in the position USE OF THE OVEN (see chap. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION)
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 VERY MOIsT fOOD, CAkEs WITH fRUIT OR jUsT fRUIT, CONDENsATE Is PRODUCED.
DURING COOKING, STEAM MAY DEVELOP WHICH DEPOSITS ON THE TOP OR SIDE OF THE DOOR FORMING DROPS OF CONDENSATE, this is
normal natural occurrence.
To allow the steam to escape and significantly reduce the formation of condensate, OPEN THE EXCEss sTEAM VALVE BEfORE LIgHTINg
THE COOkER or briefly open the oven door with care during cooking (1 or 2 times, more often for long cooking times).
OPEN THE EXCESS STEAM VALVE BEfORE LIgHTINg THE COOkER TO AVOID THE RISK OF BURNS.

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!!!
