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. MAJOLICAS

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

12.3. VARNISHED PRODUCTS

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.

12.4. ENAMELLED PRODUCTS

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.

12.5. CHROMIUM-COMPONENTS

Thanks to a specic inlet of secondary air, the accumulation of dirty sediments on the glass-door is reduced with efcacy. 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 specic 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-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

air-tight cover. The container has to be placed on a re-resistant oor, far from ammable materials up to the switching off

and complete cooling.

12.9. 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-ue 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 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
