Cleaning the glass
The glass is a self cleaning type, therefore, while the
stove is working, a veil of air is blown across its surface to
remove ash and dirt; nevertheless over a period of several
hours, a greyish patina tends to form which should be
cleaned when the stove is next shut down. How dirty the
glass becomes also depends on the quality and quantity
of pellets used.
Cleaning the glass should be done when the stove is cold
with products recommended and tested by our company.
When performing this operation, always check that the
grey seal around the glass is in a good state; failure to
check the efficiency of this gasket can compromise the
function of the stove. Poor quality pellets can, in any case,
cause the glass to become dirty.
If the glass is broken, do not attempt to
light the stove.
Cleaning the clearing system
Until a reasonable experience is acquired regarding
the operating conditions, it is advisable to perform this
maintenance on at least a monthly basis.
• Remove the electrical feed cable;
• Remove the cap from the T-joint and proceed with the
cleaning of the ducts. If necessary, at least for the first few
times, call in qualified personnel;
• Carefully clean the smoke discharge system: for this,
contact a professional chimney sweep;
• Once a year clean the dust, cobwebs, etc. from the zone
behind the internal covering panels, paying particular
attention to the fans.
Cleaning the fans
The stove is furnished with fans (environmental and
smoke) positioned at the rear and below the stove.
Eventual deposits of dust or ash on the blades of the
fan can cause an imbalance in the fans leading to noisy
performance. It is, therefore, necessary to clean the
fans at least once a year. Since said operation requires
dismantling several parts of the stove, have the fans
cleaned only by our Technical Assistance Centre.
Season end cleaning
At the end of the season, when the stove will not be used
for some time, it is advisable to perform a thorough and
general cleaning:
• Remove all the pellets from the container and the screw
feeder;
• Carefully clean the brazier, the brazier support, the
combustion chamber and the ash box.
Once the preceding points have been observed, it only
means that the state of the stove has been verified. It is
necessary to thoroughly clean the smoke discharge tube
or flue and check the condition of the basket. If necessary,
order a new one from our Authorized Assistance Centre. If
necessary, lubricate the hinges of the door and the handle.
Also check the ceramic fibre cord near the glass, on the
internal wall of the door; if it is worn or too dry, order a new
one from the Authorized Assistance Centre.
Replacing the glass
The stove is furnished with a 4 mm thick ceramic glass
that is resistant to a thermal shock of 750°C; the glass
can break only from a strong impact or from improper use.
Do not slam the door or hit the glass.
In case of breakage, replace the glass only with an original
replacement furnished by the Authorized Assistance
Centre.
Annual maintenance by the Authorized Assistance
Centre
The following operations are to be programmed annually
by the Authorized Assistance Centre and are necessary
to insure that the product remains efficient and guarantee
safe operation.
• Careful cleaning of the combustion chamber;
• Cleaning and inspection of the smoke clearing ducts;
• Checking the seal of the gaskets;
• Cleaning the mechanisms and moving parts (motors
and fans);
• Checking the electrical parts and the electronic
components.
Operations to perform every season before the first
lighting
• A general cleaning inside and outside;
• A careful cleaning of the exchange tubes;
• A careful cleaning and disincrustation of the crucible
and the relative cavity;
• Clean the motors, checking the play and fastenings of
the mechanisms;
• Clean the smoke channel (substitute the tube gaskets)
and smoke extractor fan cavity;
• Clean silicone tube connected to the pressure switch;
• Clean, inspect and disincrust the lighting resistor cavity,
replacing it if necessary;
• Clean/check the synoptic panel;
• Visually inspect the electrical cables, the connections
and the electrical power cable;

screw feeder gear motor;
• Replace the door seals;
