CLEANING OF SMOKE DUCT AND GENERAL CHECKS:
Clean the smoke discharge system, especially in the area of the tee
connectors, curves and any horizontal stretches of pipe.
For information on cleaning the flue pipe, contact a professional
chimney sweep.
Check the seal of the ceramic fibre gaskets on the door of the stove. If
necessary, order new gaskets from the retailer for replacement or
contact an authorized service centre to carry out this work.
ATTENTION:
The frequency with which the smoke discharge
system is cleaned should be determined based on the
type of use that is made of the stove and the type of
installation.
MCZ suggests relying on an authorized service centre
for end-of-season cleaning and maintenance, who will
carry out all of the previously mentioned work and
make a general check of the stove's components.
7.2.2.
Shutting the stove down (end of season)
At the end of season, before shutting down the stove, we recommend
completely removing pellets from the hopper with the use of a vacuum
cleaner with an extension.
During periods of disuse, the stove must be unplugged and
placed in a dry place protected from the elements. For greater
safety, especially if there are children around, we recommend
removing the supply cable from the rear of the stove.
Upon re-start, when pressing the main switch (located on the back of
the stove) does not make the control panel display light up, it could
mean that the service fuse needs replacing.
On the rear of the stove there is a fuse holding compartment which is
located underneath the supply socket. Use a screwdriver to open the
fuse-holder compartment and if necessary replace them (3.15 AT
delayed)
7.2.3.
Check of internal components
ATTENTION!
The check of the internal electro-mechanical
components must be carried out only by qualified
personnel with technical knowledge of electricity and
combustion.
We recommend that an annual maintenance service is carried out,
preferably under a programmed service contract. The essential part of
this service is a visual and functional check on the internal components:
The following is a summary of the checks and/or maintenance tasks
which are indispensable for the correct operation of the stove.
