Cleaning Out The Ashes; Cleaning The Flue; Summer Stop; Majolicas (If Present) - Nordica TermoROSSELLA Plus - DSA Manuel Utilisateur

CLEANINg OUT THE AsHEs

All the devices are equipped with a hearth grating and an ash drawer for the collection of the ashes
It is suggested to empty periodically the ash drawer and to avoid it fills 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 fire-resistant material equipped
with an air-tight cover. The container has to be placed on a fire-resistant floor, far from flammable materials up to the
switching off and complete cooling.

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-flue 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 fire in the flue.
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 flue (checking of possible deposits).

sUMMER sTOP

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 flue.
We suggest performing the cleaning operation of the flue 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.
Check the water level in the expansion tank and remove any air from the system by bleeding the radiators; also check to make sure that the
plumbing and electrical accessories (control unit, circulator) are working properly.
ATTENTION: For no reason must the fire be ignited before the system has been completely filled with water; doing this would lead
to serious damage of the entire structure. The installation must always be full of water even when the appliance is not used.

MAJOLICAs (IF PREsENT)

La NORDICA s.p.A.has chosen majolica tiles, which are the result of high-quality artisan work. As they are completely carried out by hand,
the majolica may present crackles, speckles, and shadings. These characteristics certify their precious origin.
Enamel and majolica, due to their different coefficient of dilatation, produce microcrackles, which show their authentic feature.
For the cleaning of the majolica we suggest you to use a soft and dry cloth; if you use a detergent or liquid, the latter might soak
in and highlight the crackles permanently.

PRODUCTs MADE OF NATURAL sTONE (IF PREsENT)

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

VARNIsHED PRODUCTs (IF PREsENT)

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.

ENAMELLED PRODUCTs (IF PREsENT)

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.
DO NOT use sandpaper or steel wool.

CHROMIUM-COMPONENTs (IF PREsENT)

If the components become bluish due to overheating, this can be solved with a suitable product for cleaning. DO NOT use abrasives or
solvents.

MAINTENANCE OF THE OVEN (WHERE ExIsTINg)

To avoid the possible forming of rust it is recommended:
- To let the steam getting out of the oven to reduce the formation of any condensation by opening the door briefly and carefully (1 or 2
times, or more often in case of cooking food very humid and with longer cooking times);
- Remove the food from the oven once cooked. Letting the food to chill in the oven at a temperature below 150 °C results in the forming of
