22-RECOMMENDATIONS FOR SAFE USE
CLEANING THE SMOKE EXPULSION SYSTEM AND GENERAL CHECKS
Clean the smoke outlet 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 gaskets from the retailer or
contact an authorised service centre to carry out the operation.
ATTENTION:
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.
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 pellet from the tank because it can retain moisture. Disconnect any combustion air ducting that
can lead 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 CAT) 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.
The service fuse may have to be replaced if the control panel display does not switch on when the product is switched on again by pressing
the main switch on its side.
There is a fuse compartment on the back of the product, under the power socket. Open the fusebox cover with a screwdriver and replace
the fuses if necessary (3.15 A delayed) - seek assistance from an authorised and qualified technician.
