8 CHIMNEY FLUE
8.1 INTRODUCTION
This chapter about the Chimney Flue has been drawn up in cooperation with Assocosma (www.assocosma.org)
and is based on European Standards (EN 15287 - EN 13384 - EN 1856 - EN 1443 - UNI 10683:2012).
It provides instructions for a good and correct execution of the chimney ue but it does not absolutely replace
the current standards which the qualied manufacturer/installer should comply with.
Please check with your local authorities if exists any restrictive regulation which regards the
combustible air inlet, the fumes exhaust system, the chimney ue and the chimney pot.
The company declines any responsibility regarding the bad running of the stove if it is due to the use of a no
correctly dimensioned chimney ue which does not respect current regulations.
8.2 CHIMNEY FLUE
• The chimney ue or chimney is of great importance for the correct running of the heating appliance.
• It is fundamental that the chimney ue is perfectly built and always maintained with a perfect efciency.
• The chimney ue must be sole with insulated stainless-steel pipes or installed on the existing chimney ue.
• Both this solutions must be endowed with an inspection door.

11.1 ATTENTION
This appliance must not be used by people (childreen included) with reduced mobility,
psycological deseases or without experience and knowledge except in case of supervision
or instruction about the use of the appliance by people responsible for their safety.
Childreen must be constantly overseen in order to assure that they do not play with the
appliance.
During its running, the stove reaches high temperatures: keep away childreen and animals
and for your safety please use appropriate reproof devices, such as heat-protecting gloves.
11.2 INTRODUCTION
To have the best performance with the lowest consumption please follow the here descripted instructions.
• Wood ignition occurs very easily if the installation is correct and if the chimney ue is efcient.
• By rst ignition of the stove hold a slow re for at least 4-5 hours in order to allow the material of which
the heater and the hearth are made up of to adjust the inner mechanical stresses. This operation must be
executed at least 3-4 times a year.
• Plant fat waste and varnishes can release bad smells and smoke during rst working hours: it is advisable to
ventilate the room because they can be noxious to people and animals.
Do not use ammable liquids during the ignition (alcool, petrol, oil, etc...).
11.3 IGNITION
• If inside the combustion chamber there are booklets, manuals, etc..., remove them.
• Check if the plug is correctly inserted in the electric socket (only for stoves with forced ventilation).
• Completely open the primary air inlet register and the damper.
• Put the re-starter bars and seasoned wood logs into the burning pot.
• Ignite the bars and right after insert well seasoned wood logs and close the oven door.
For a better yield, as soon as there is a live ame, iti is advisable to close the primary air valve to the minimum
and keep the damper at 45° in order to have the maximum performance (nominal output) with the lowest fuel
consumption.
11.4 STOVE REFILLING
During stove relling do not wear ammable or large clothing.

17
CARINA - DORA
EN
Do not open and close the re door violently: the glass can brake!
Open the re door with naked ames can be dangerous for user and/or home.
During operation some external parts can reach high temperatures. During relling fases use
proper protection gloves given as equipment.
• It is advisable to rell the stove only when on the rebox are only embers.
• Please proceed as follows: close the primary air valve, open the re door slowly, shake the ash with the
appropriate instrument, insert wood in the hearth, close the door and adjust again the primary air valve.
During regular working is dangerous to keep open the ash drawer and/or the re box to
increase air draught! There are appropriate instruments to adjust combustion air (primary air
valve, register, etc...).
11.5 VENTILATION
Some models are endowed with a forced ventilation system with a manual reset: turn it on and off through the switch.
The air blowed by fans keeps the stove at a lower temperature thus avoiding excessive stresses to materials of
which the stove is made up and at the same time heats the environment homogeneously.
Make periodically sure about the effective operation on the fan.
In case of black out or if the ventilation is out of order, the stove can work in the same way
provided that using a low ame.Thus do not load the hearth with wood excessively. In case
that the fan is out of order, contact an authorized technician who will replace it woth an
original spare part.
11.6 ADVERSE WEATHER CONDITIONS
When the external temperatures are severe and/or there are adverse weather conditions (strong wind), the
chimney is subjected to a lack in draught thus impeding a correct fume expulsion.
• Fill the heart with few wood logs and keep air register valves opened completely.
11.7 CREOSOTE DANGER
The use of humid and/or bad quality wood (for example resinous wood) cause creation of creosote along the
chimney ue obstructing fume passages. The creosote is ammable and if amassed over the time it must be
removed in order to prevent the risk of re of the chimney ue.
• In case of re close air register valves and contact immediately the remen.
• When the chimney has stopped burning, have the chimney ue checked by an expert stove-repairer.
11.8 FIRE EXTINGUISHING IN CASE OF FIRE
In case it would be necessary to extinguish the re emitted by the stove or by the chimney ue, use a re-
extinguisher or contact the remen. DO NOT use water to extinguish the re inside the burning pot.
12 MAINTEINANCE
12.1 INTRODUCTION
For a long working life of the stove, have a periodic cleaning of the stove as described in the following paragrafs.

18 CARINA - DORA
EN
• Fume outlet pipes (fume conduit + chimney ue + chimney pot) must always be cleaned, scrubbed and
checked by an authorized technician in compliance with local regulations, with the instructions of the
manufacturer and those of your insurance company.
• If there are no local regulations and no instruction from your insurance company, it is necessary to have your
fume pipe, chimney ue and chimney pot cleaned at least once a year.
• It is also necessary to have the combustion chamber, motors and fans cleaned and to have the gaskets and
the electronical elements (if there are) checked at least once a year.
All these operations must be planned in time with your Autorized Technical Assistance
Service.
• After a long ineffective time, before turning on the stove check if there are obstructions in the fume exhaust.
• If the stove had been using continuously and intensely, the whole system (chimney included), must be
cleaned and checked more frequently.
• In case of replacement of damaged pieces please ask for the original spare part at the Autorized Retailer.
Before any movement let the re inside the combustion chamber extinguish till the total
cooling and always disconnect the plug from the socket (if there are).
12.2 BURNING POT AND ASH TRAY CLEANING
For a good combustion, before of every stove ignition, remove the ash which has settled in the burning pot. The
abundant ash obstructes the primary air ow which is fundamental for a good combustion.
• Remove ash from the burning pot by shaking it to let it fall in the ash tray.
• If full, the sah tray must be empty.
• Ash must be kept in a metal container with sealed cap, the same container must not ever be in contact with
ammable materials (for example lent over a wooden oor), as ash inside keeps embers glowing for a long time.
• Only when the ash is completely extinguished can be throuwn in the organic waste.
• Clean the ash also in the ash compartment.
12.3 FUME PIPES ANNUAL CLEANING
Clean once a year from soot with brushes.
The cleaning operation must be executed by a specialized stove-repairer who will provide for the cleaning of
fume pipe, chimney ue and chimney pot. He will also check their eciency and will release a written declaration
of the safety of the appliance. This operation must be executed at least once a year.
12.4 FANS CLEANING
For models with ventilation, clean every year the room fan from ash or dust which can cause a blade unbalance
and a greater noise.
As this operation is so delicate it must therefore be executed by an Authorized Technician.
12.5 GENERAL CLEANING
For cleaning external and inner parts of the stove do not use steel wools, muriatic acid or other corrosive and
abrasive materials.

12.6 CLEANING OF PAINTED METAL PANELS
To clean painted metal panels use a soft cloth. Do not use degreasant agents like alcool, diluents, acetone,
gasoline because these could irremediably damage the varnish.
12.7 CLEANING OF CERAMIC PANELS
Some stove models has an external lining made up of ceramic. These pieces are handmade therefore they
could inevitably present crazings, seedinesses, shadings.
To clean ceramic panels use a soft and dry cloth. If using any cleaners this will seep through the crazings putting
them in evidence.
12.8 FAN REPLACEMENT
For fan replacement proceed as follows:
• Extract the plug from the socket.
• Remove the ceramics to prevent breakage.
• Disconnect the chimney, tilt the stove and place it on the oor on the back side.
• Unscrew the 4 screws at the sides of the casing of the fan.
• Disconnect the faston and unscrew the failure fan screws.
• Replace the fan and repeat the inverse operation.
12.9 GASKET REPLACEMENT
In case of deterioration of re door gasket and/or ash door gasket it is necessary to replace them by an autorized
technician in order to guarantee the good running of the stove.
Use exclusively original spare parts.
12.10 GLASS CLEANING
The glass-ceramic of the re door is able to stand till 700°C but not to thermal shocks.
The probable cleaning with usual sale product for glass cleaning must be effected at cool glass in order to avoid
explosions.
12.11 HEART BREAK
Probable cast iron or refractory heart break are due to an excessive overheating caused by too much fuel or
by too much combustion air. Have the damaged elements immediately replaced in order to avoid feather
damages to the stove.
Use exclusively original spare parts.
