5.2. CLEANING TO BE DONE BY A SPECIALIZED

TECHNICIAN

CLEANING OF HEAT EXCHANGER
Open the upper plug (Fig. 29) and use a stiff rod to scrape the walls of

the firebox so that the ashes fall to the part below.
Still with the stove cold, open the door below the grate (Fig. 30) and

with a vacuum cleaner remove the ash and soot accumulated in the

heat exchanger.
Clean the smoke discharge system, especially in the area of the tee

connectors and of any horizontal stretches of pipe.
For information refer to a chimney sweep.

ATTENTION: For your safety, the frequency of

cleaning the smoke discharge system must be

determined on the basis of how the stove is used.


Check the seal of the ceramic fibre gaskets on the stove.
If necessary order new gaskets from your dealer as replacements.

At the end of the season it is necessary to clean the compartment

under the grate and the heat exchanger inside it.

This general cleaning should be carried out at the end of the season in

order to facilitate the general removal of all residues of combustion,

without waiting too long, because with time and humidity these

residues can become compacted.

4.6 Shutting the stove down (end of

season)

At the end of season, before placing the stove in storage, we

recommend completely removing pellets from the hopper with the use

of a vacuum cleaner with an extension.
In the period when the stove is out of use it must be

disconnected from the electricity mains. For greater safety,

especially if there are children around, we recommend

removing the supply cable from the rear of the stove. Fig. 31
If the stove is removed from its place of installation (during the warm

seasons) it MUST be placed in a location that is protected from

atmospheric agents.

If 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.

ATTENTION !
Disconnect the electricity supply cable.
