CLEANING THE SMOKE EXHAUST SYSTEM AND GENERAL CHECKS
Clean the smoke extractor system, especially around the “T” joints, elbows and any horizontal sections of the smoke duct.
For information on periodically cleaning the flue, contact a skilled chimney sweep.
Check the seal of the ceramic fibre gaskets on the door of the stove. If necessary, order new replacement seals from the retailer or contact
an authorized service centre to carry out this task.
CAUTION:
The frequency with which the smoke outlet system is cleaned depends on the use of the boiler and the type of
installation.
We recommend relying on an authorised service centre for end-of-season cleaning and maintenance, as they will
carry out all of the previously mentioned work and inspect the stove components.
PERIODICAL CHECK OF THE DOOR CLOSURE
Make sure the door closure ensures a correct sealing action (with the “paper sheet” test) and that when the door is closed, the closing block
(X in the figure) does not protrude from the sheet metal to which it is secured. For some products it will be necessary to disassemble the
cladding to be able to assess the anomalous protrusion of the block when the door is closed.
SHUTDOWN (end of season)
At the end of each season, before switching the product off, it is recommended to remove all the pellets from the hopper with a vacuum
cleaner with a long pipe.
We recommend removing the unused pellets from the hopper because they can retain moisture. Disconnect any combustion air ducting
that can lead to moisture inside the combustion chamber but, above all, ask the specialised technician to refresh the paint inside the
combustion chamber with the special silicone spray paints (available at any store or Technical Assistance Centre) during the necessary
annual end of season scheduled maintenance operations. This way the paint will protect the inner parts of the combustion chamber,
blocking any type of oxidative process.
When not in use the appliance must be disconnected from the mains power supply. It is recommended to remove the
power cable for additional safety, especially in the presence of children.
If, when the stove is switched on again, the control panel display does not light up, it means that it may be necessary to replace the service
fuse.
There is a fuse box next to the power socket. After having unplugged the appliance, open the fusebox cover with a screwdriver and replace
the fuses if necessary (5x20 mm T delayed/ 3. 15 A 250 V) - seek assistance from an authorised and qualified technician.
