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

draught of the chimney-ue 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 Picture 8 at page 61.

It is suggested to empty periodically the ash drawer and to avoid it lls 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 re-resistant material equipped with an

excessive deposit of soot can cause problems in the discharge of smokes and re in the ue.

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 ue (checking of possible deposits).

During the cleaning, it is necessary to remove the ash drawer, the grating, and the smoke deectors from the device in order to ease the

fall of the soot. The deectors 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 (Picture 9 at page 62 ).

CAUTION: The lack of the deectors causes a strong depression, with a too fast combustion, an excessive consumption of wood

with related overheating of the device.

10.2. 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

After cleaning the hearth, chimney and hood, totally eliminating the ash and other eventual residues, close all the doors of the hearth

and the relevant registers; in case you disconnect the appliance from the chimney you must close its openings in order to let work others

possible appliances connected to the same ue.

We suggest performing the cleaning operation of the ue at least once per year; verifying in the meantime the actual status of the rope

seals, which cannot ensure the good operation of the equipment if they are not in good condition and are not making a good seal! In this

case the seals must be replaced.

In presence of dampness in the room where the stove has been placed, we advise you to put absorbent salts into the hearth.

If you want to keep for long the aesthetic look of the cooker it is important to protect its internal walls in row cast iron with neutral Vaseline.
