Safety against flashback on pellet feed chute
The stove has a number of devices and protections to increase the safety level and prevent the risk of
fire. The flashback is prevented by the following solutions:
- combustion chamber depression
- the siphon shape of the pellet feed chute
- safety of tank temperature.
MAINTENANCE
Introduction
To extend the life of your stove it is important to clean it
periodically as indicated hereafter. It is also necessary to
have an extraordinary maintenance intervention done on
the stove and chimney once a year calling the assistance
service on time.
The display will show the need to contact your technical
support when the word "Service" will appear alternately to the work status. During this signal, the stove
can be used for a limited period of time.
Do not use steel-wool, muriatic acid or corrosive and scratching products to clean its inner and exterior
parts. In case of damages always use original spare parts asking to authorised shops or to the
manufacturer.
IMPORTANT! before cleaning or performing maintenance let the fire go out completely and the stove
cool down and disconnect it from electrical power supply.
Majolica parts cleaning
We would like to remind you that the majolica parts are craft-made and therefore they can have little
flaws (flaws interlacing due to thermal dilation between the biscuit and the paint), marking by tricks (very
little holes due to microscopic gas blisters that appear on surface during the cooking) shadings (shades
of paint due to concentration of colour in particular areas of majolica). To clean the majolica parts you
should use a dry and soft cloth. If you use any kind of detergent that will filter through the flaws showing
them up.
Painted metal parts cleaning
Use a wet soft cloth to clean the painted metal parts. Do not use degreasing substances, alcohol,
diluent, acetone, petrol that can damage irreparably the paint.
Glass cleaning
The fire-door pyroceram resists to 700°C but not to sudden changes of temperature. Therefore you can
clean the glass with normal glass products but you have to wait for the glass to cool down to avoid its
explosion. If you break the glass you must replace it before using the stove.
Fumes duct cleaning
It is recommended to clean the waste fumes pipes once a month (see
picture 9 pag.8).
Remove the inspection plug of the T pipe-fitting (when the stove is
off). Clean it from the ash left inside. After cleaning repeat the
opposite operation verifying the good conditions and the efficiency of
the strip and if necessary replace it.
