    WARNING!!! IN ORDER FOR THE HEATING COOKER/HEATING STOVE TO OPERATE PROPERLY THE CAST IRON GRILLE INSIDE THE COMBUSTION CHAMBER MUST BE POSITIONED AS SHOWN BELOW , TAKING CARE NOT TO INVERT IT, TO PREVENT THE ASH FROM COMPACTING AND NOT FALLING INTO THE ASH DRAWER. The oven and hob (heating cooker only) The oven on the heating cooker is heated by the exhaust gases.

  • Page 44: Producing Domestic Hot Water (Suitable Models Only)

    The flue pipe and air inlet are the most important parts that ensure the correct operation of the cooker. In the event of particular circumstances of poor flue pipe draught caused by particularly adverse weather conditions (strong wind, low pressure, etc.) partially close the internal smoke damper without closing it completely.

  • Page 45: Anti-Freeze Protection

    Anti-freeze protection In intensely cold periods it is good practice to leave the heating system running. In the event of prolonged absence, anti-freeze should be added to the heating water and the water inside the heating cooker/heating stove, or the system must be completely emptied.

  • Page 46: Maintenance

    MAINTENANCE Cleaning the boiler Regular and systematic maintenance is a fundamental component for the good functioning, optimum heat yield and long life of the appliance over time. It is therefore recommended to clean the boiler periodically (at least once a year).
  • Page 47 Remove the handle on the internal smoke damper, holding the internal blade with one hand to prevent it from falling behind the oven. Remove both the handle and internal blade of the internal smoke damper.
  • Page 48 Remove the cast iron upper hob and remove any ash deposits on top of and all around the oven. After cleaning, refit the hob, the internal smoke damper, the smoke damper and flue pipes. Open the vent under the oven to clean the gas circuit pipes, following the instructions below:...
  • Page 49 Loosen the two hex screws on the inspection vent.
  • Page 50 Remove the vent as shown in the diagram and remove any deposits under the oven.
  • Page 51 Refit the inspection vent as shown in the photos and retighten the hex screws. HEATING STOVE Remove the pipes that connect the heating stove to the flue pipe and clean them if necessary. Remove the smoke damper.
  • Page 52 Remove the cast iron upper hob and remove any ash deposits on top of and all around the oven. After cleaning, refit the hob, the smoke damper and flue pipes.

  • Page 53: Cleaning The Ceramic Glass

    Any deposits on the walls of the combustion chamber (if particularly resinous wood is burned) can be eliminated by making the heating cooker/heating stove work at maximum conditions for 30-40 minutes (in this case set the thermostat to 80°C) by burning thin dry wood. Leave the fire to go out and then scrape the inside walls using a steel spatula.

  • Page 54: Maintenance Of The Boiler Unit

    Maintenance of the boiler unit The heating cooker/heating stove is equipped with a special magnesium anode to protect the boiler unit and stainless steel heat exchangers from corrosion caused by stray currents in the system. This anode also protects against galvanic corrosion. MAGNESIUM ANODE The anode must be checked at least once a year and replaced when its diameter measures less than 15 mm.

  • Page 55: The Wood To Be Burned

    THE WOOD TO BURN Wood types Wood is one of the most precious materials offered by nature. For heating purposes, it must be verified that the wood satisfies some important requisites that must not be ignored, the most important of which is without doubt the correct seasoning or drying, in other words the wood must have the correct degree of humidity, around 10-15%, therefore also the period of the year in which it is felled becomes...
