La Nordica Monoblocco Ghisa 750 Piano [20/52] Normal operation

Therefore, it is extremely relevant to take these easy steps during the lighting:

1. Make sure that a strong air change is assured in the room where the appliance is installed.

2. During the rst starts, do not load excessively the combustion chamber (about half the quantity indicated in the instructions manual)

and keep the product continuously ON for at least 6-10 hours with the registers less open than the value indicated in the instructions

manual.

3. Repeat this operation for at least 4-5 or more times, according to your possibilities.

4. Then load more and more fuel (following in any case the provisions contained in the installation booklet concerning maximum load)

and, if possible, keep the lighting periods long avoiding, at least in this initial phase, short ON/OFF cycles.

5. During the rst starts, no object should be leaned on the appliance and in detail on enamelled surfaces. Enamelled surfaces must

(Fans, temperature probe, etc) and with hydraulic systems all parts connected to the thermo-replace.

9.1. LOW EMISSION re lighting

Smokeless combustion is a way of lighting a re able to signicantly reduce the emission of harmful substances. The wood burns gradually

from the top downwards, so combustion is slower and more controlled. Burnt gases pass through the high temperatures of the ame and

therefore burn almost completely. A load will last from 6 to 8 hours.

Place the logs in the hearth a certain distance apart as shown in the Picture 9 at page 43. Arrange the largest at the bottom and the

smallest at the top, or vertically in the case of tall narrow combustion chambers. Place the re starter module on top of the pile, arranging

the rst logs in the module at right angles to the pile of wood.

Fire STARTER MODULE

This re starter module replaces a paper or cardboard starter.

• do not add further wood between one complete load and the next;

• do not suffocate the re by closing the air intakes;

• regular cleaning by a chimney sweep reduces ne particle emissions.

10. NORMAL OPERATION

After having positioned the registers correctly, insert the indicated hourly wood load avoiding overloads that cause anomalous stresses

and deformations. You should always use the product with the door closed in order to avoid damages due to overheating (forge

effect). The inobservance of this rule makes the warranty expire.

With the registers located on the front of the device, it is possible to adjust the heat emission of the same. They have to be opened

according to the caloric need. The best combustion (with minimum emissions) is reached when, by loading the wood, most part of the air

Besides the adjustment of the air for the combustion, the intensity of the combustion and consequently the thermal performance of the

device is inuenced 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).

10.1. OPERATION DURING 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 ue 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
