WOOD COOKING STOVES

EN

In case of black out or if the ventilation is out of order, the stove can work in the same way 

provided that using a low flame.

Thus do not load the hearth with wood excessively. In case that the fan is out of order, 

contact an authorized technician who will replace it woth an original spare part.

11.8 

ADVERSE WEATHER CONDITIONS

When the external temperatures are severe and/or there are adverse weather conditions (strong wind), the 

chimney is subjected to a lack in draught thus impeding a correct fume expulsion.

• 

Fill the heart with few wood logs and keep air register valves opened completely. 

11.9 

CREOSOTE DANGER 

The use of humid and/or bad quality wood (for example resinous wood) cause creation of 

creosote along the chimney flue obstructing fume passages.

The creosote is flammable and if amassed over the time it must be removed in order to 

prevent the risk of fire of the chimney flue.

FIRE EXTINGUISHING IN CASE OF FIRE

• 

In the event of fire, close the air regulating valve and call the fire brigade immediately.

• 

Never use water to put out the fire inside the combustion chamber.

• 

Use an extinguisher and call the fire brigade immediately.

• 

When the fire has stopped burning, have the flue inspected by a specialised heating engineer.

INTRODUCTION

For a long working life of the stove, have a periodic cleaning of the stove as described in the following paragrafs.

• 

Fume outlet pipes (fume c chimney flue + chimney pot) must always be cleaned, scrubbed and 

checked  by  an  authorized  technician  in  compliance  with  local  regulations,  with  the  instructions  of  the 

manufacturer and those of your insurance company.

• 

If there are no local regulations and no instruction from your insurance company, it is necessary to have your 

fume pipe, chimney flue and chimney pot cleaned at least once a year. 

• 

It is also necessary to have the combustion chamber, motors and fans cleaned and to have the gaskets and 

the electronical elements (if there are) checked at least once a year.

All  these  operations  must  be  planned  in  time  with  your  Autorized  Technical  Assistance 

Service. 

• 

After a long ineffective time, before turning on the stove check if there are obstructions in the fume exhaust. 

• 

If  the  stove  had  been  using  continuously  and  intensely,  the  whole  system  (chimney  included),  must  be 

cleaned and checked more frequently. 

• 

In case of replacement of damaged pieces please ask for the original spare part at the Autorized Retailer.

12.2 

BURNING POT AND ASH TRAY CLEANING 

For a good combustion, before of every stove ignition, remove the ash which has settled in the burning pot. The 

abundant ash obstructes the primary air flow which is fundamental for a good combustion.

• 

Remove ash from the burning pot by shaking it to let it fall in the ash tray.

• 

If full, the sah tray must be empty.

• 

Ash must be kept in a metal container with sealed cap, the same container must not ever be in contact with 

flammable materials (for example lent over a wooden floor), as ash inside keeps embers glowing for a long 

time.
