Your choice fell upon a Rizzoli cooker, result of a tradition started in 1912 when Carlo Rizzoli began the production of wood fired cookers with the typical style of the valley in the dolomites. Year after year Rizzoli continued to refine its cookers using even more advanced technologies, but without losing contact with the elegance, the beauty and the functionality of the original product.

• The first lightings of the cooker and the first seasonal lightings must be done with temperate fire in order to prevent possible breakings of the internal parts. • After a long period in which you do not use the cooker, check carefully that obstructions are not present and that the cooker works regularly.

Be sure that the cookers that have to be framed has the minimum safety distances to flammable or high temperature sensible materials, see table 2.2 (T). Rizzoli also produces spacer to reduce distances. If the cooker is framed between not sensible to heating materials, it is necessary anyway to keep a minimum distance of 0.08”...

2.3 CHIMNEY Chimney has a main importance for a correct working. Wood fired cookers are built to insure the maximum efficiency, anyway the performances of the cooker are deeply influenced by the chimney. If the chimney has defects or does not match the building laws, it is not insured the correct working of the device. To build the chimney you must use suitable materials, made to work with high temperatures and according to fireproof laws: it is not important the kind of material, on condition that it is right and that the chimney is isolated.
Chimney must be dimensioned in a correct way according to the type of cooker it is connected with, minding the environmental and general conditions of the place in which it is placed. The section of the chimney must permit the flow of the fumes produced by the cooker without difficulties, but it must not be too big otherwise the chimney will experience problems in heating itself and this may generate problems like weak draught and condensation.

2.8 FLUE OUTLET POSITION M-MZ-ML Range models are endowed with the predisposition of the flue outlet in the upper and rear parts, right or left. The choice of the side must be done when ordering the cooker. After the delivery, it is still possible to change the position from right to left and from left to right but it is necessary to make some variations inside the cooker in addition to the replacement of the flue connector.
The air intake in the room must have a minimum surface of 80 cm . On demand, Rizzoli can give specific valves which can allow the automatic opening of the air intake only when it is necessary for the correct working of the device in order to warrant a maximum depression of 4 Pa in the place of installation.
Page 11
Are also possible other solutions for the connection but they must be decided together with Rizzoli. WARNING! Aspiring hoods or extracting air fans in the room may generate problems to the device if there is not a suited air intake or in case of air intake sub-dimensioned.
Page 12
WARNING! For the correct working of the device verify that the passage of comburent air is not obstructed or, in case of connection with external air intake, that the air aspiration grill is not obstructed. 2.11 PLINTH REGULATION (MZ) The plinth of MZ Range cookers can be regulated in order to match the space in which the cooker is inserted. It is possible to adjust the level of the cooker by operating on the levelling pins that can be regulated in height.

Picture 14 - Regulation of the telescopic plinth. 2.13 DOOR OPENING VARIATION M-MZ-ML Range cookers are predisposed with the rightwards fire door opening, if not indicated leftwards at the order. It is possible to change the opening also after the installation. The operation must be done by experienced people.

first lighting must be done with moderate fire, using little wood broken in small pieces. In the next lightings you can progressively increase the load of combustible. During the first lightings some smell due to processing residuals might happen. This phenomenon is normal, it requires the ventilation of the room and will disappear quickly.
3.2 STARTING To allow an easier lighting of the cooker with cold chimney, the M-MZ-ML Range wood fired cookers have two devices useful for starting. The starting key is ruled by a rod: extracting the rod, the key opens. This creates a direct connection between the combustion chamber and the chimney, in order to obtain an improved draught.

3.4 PLATE COOKING The radiant plate is designed to allow a fast and simple cooking. The hotter part is situated in correspondence with the hotplate, this is the best part for placing a pot which must get warm quickly. The external parts of the plate are better to keep foods warm.

3.8 TELESCOPIC PULLOUT FOR BAKING PAN Picture 23 - Instructions for the variation of the position of the telescopic pullout. All the wood fired cookers have a telescopic pullout for endowed baking pan system. In this way, it is possible to extract the baking pan without the necessity to sustain it, ensuring a better practicality.

3.10 FIRE DOOR PROTECTION (OPTIONAL) On M-MZ-ML Range cookers it is possible to have on demand a steel protection which could be placed on the fire door. This protection is designed to shield the door when the cooking operations require the continuous presence of the user in front of the cooker or in presence of children.
Also in these situations, an accurate cleaning will restore the state of the product as it was new. On request Rizzoli gives specific products to clean stainless steel. For enamelled or painted parts, do not use abrasive or aggressive solution and in case of stains pour some oil and wait while it absorbs the halo, then clean with a soft rag.

Picture 25 - Unhooking the oven door from the cooker. 4.6 FUME-CIRCUIT INSPECTION In the wood fired cookers, the combustion fumes are forced to turn completely around the oven. For this reason, M-MZ-ML Range wood fired cookers are endowed with a double inspection to clean the fume-circuit. The cleaning must be done at least after six months of normal use of the cooker as the cleaning of the chimney, according to the use it might be necessary a more frequent cleaning.
Picture 26 – Fume-circuit inspection. 4.7 CHIMNEY CLEANING The cleaning of the chimney must be done by experienced technicians at least every six months of normal use of the cooker. Anyway, cleaning must be done every time it becomes necessary according to the use or to the combustible used.
4.9 PLATE CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE Radiating plates in special steel need regular maintenance, in particular they need cleaning after every use that brings moisture or dust on the plate itself. With cold cooker you have to remove all the pots and boilers that could maintain moisture on the plate. Together with the device are given some exclusive products, studied for the cleaning and the maintenance of the plate: the abrasive sponge, the plate cleaner and the oil for plate care.

Page 39
Some example of clearance reduction; • Using heat shields on back and sidewalls allowing at least 1" of space away from the walls for ventilation. The inch spacing is necessary to ensure air circulation between the protection and the wall so that the wall is not subject to high temperatures. The spacer used must be non-combustible. Another method to achieve the same type of protection is using brick or masonry with 1"...
