ATTENTION
SURFACES CAN BECOME VERY HOT!
ALWAYS USE PROTECTIVE GLOVES!
During combustion, thermal energy is released that signicantly increases the heat of surfaces, doors, handles, controls, glass, exhaust
pipes, and even the front of the appliance. Avoid contact with those elements if not wearing protective clothing (protective gloves
included). Make sure children are aware of the danger and keep them away from the stove during operation.

ENGLISH
Before installing the appliance, carry out the following checks:
• UPPER smoke output - REAR - LATERAL
• verify if your structure can support the weight of the appliance. In case of insufcient carrying capacity it is necessary to
adopt appropriate measures, La NORDICA responsibility is limited to the supply of the appliance (See chapter TECHNICAL
DESCRIPTION).
• Make sure that the oor can support the weight of the appliance (for ex. distributing weight plate), and if it is made of ammable
material, provide suitable insulation (DIMENSIONS ACCORDING TO REGIONAL REGULATIONS).
• Make sure that there is adequate ventilation in the room where the appliance is to be installed, with particular attention to
windows and doors with tight closing (seal ropes).
• Do not install the appliance in rooms containing collective ventilation ducts, hoods with or without extractor, type B gas
appliances, heat pumps, or other appliances that, operating at the same time, can put the room in depression (ref. UNI 10683
standard).
• Make sure that the ue and the pipes to which the appliance will be connected are suitable for its operation. It is NOT allowed
the connection of various appliances to the same chimney.
• The diameter of the opening for connection to the chimney must at least correspond to the diameter of the ue gas pipe. The
opening must be equipped with a wall connection for the insertion of the exhaust pipe and a rosette.
• The unused ue gas exhaust stub pipe must be covered with its respective cap (see chapter DIMENSIONS).
• The installation must be appropriate and has to allow the cleaning and maintenance of the product and the ue.
La NORDICA S.p.A. declines all responsibility for damage to things and/or persons caused by the system. In
addition, it is not responsible for any product modied without authorisation and even less for the use of non
original spare parts.
Your regular local chimney sweep must be informed about the installation of the appliance so that he can check the correct connection
to the chimney.
FIRE SAFETY
When installing the product, the following safety measures must be observed:
a) In order to ensure sucient thermal insulation, respect the minimum safety distance from objects or furnishing components ammable
and sensitive to heat (furniture, wood sheathings, fabrics. etc.) and from materials with ammable structure (see Picture 4 - A). All the
minimum safety distances are shown on the product data plate and lower values must not be used.
b) In front of the furnace door, in the radiation area there must be no ammable or heat-sensitive objects or material at a distance of less than
100 cm. This distance can be reduced to 40 cm where a rear-ventilated, heat-resistant protection device is installed in front of the whole
component to protect.
c) If the product is installed on a non totally refractory oor, one must foresee a reproof background. The oors made of inammable
material, such as moquette, parquet or cork etc., must be covered by a layer of no-inammable material, for instance ceramic, stone,
glass or steel etc. (size according to regional law). The base must extend at least 50 cm at the front and at least 30 cm at the sides, in
addition to the opening of the loading door (see Picture 4 - B).
d) No ammable components (e.g. wall units) must be present above the product.
The Product must always operate exclusively with the ash drawer inserted. The solid combustion residues (ash) must be collected in a sealed,
re resistant container. The Product must never be on in the presence of gaseous emissions or vapours (for example glue for linoleum, petrol
etc.). Never deposit ammable materials near the Product.
During combustion, thermal energy is released which leads to considerable heating of the surfaces, doors, handles, controls, glass
parts, the ue gas pipe and possibly the front part of the appliance. Avoid contact with these elements unless using suitable
protective clothing or accessories (heat resistant gloves, control devices).
Ensure children are aware of these dangers and keep them away from the furnace when it is on.
When using the wrong fuel or one which is too damp, due to deposits present in the ue, a ue re is possible.
IN A EMERGENCY
If there is a re in the ue connection :
a) Close the loading door and the ash drawer door
b) Close the comburent air registers
c) Use carbon dioxide ( CO2 powder ) extinguishers to put out the re
d) Request the immediate intervention of the Fire Brigade
DO NOT PUT OUT THE FIRE WITH WATER.
When the ue stops burning, have it checked by a specialist to identify any cracks or permeable points.

(*) The proposed value are indicative. The installation must, in any case, be sized and veried according to the general calculation method in UNI
EN13384-1 or by another method of proven eciency.
(**) For those buildings in which the thermal insulation does not correspond to the instructions on heat protection, the heating volume of the
product is: favourable type of building (30 kcal/h x m3); less favourable type of building (40 kcal/h x m3); unfavourable type of building (50 kcal/h
x m3).
With thermal insulation in accordance with the regulations regarding energy saving, the heated volume is greater. With temporary heating, in
the event of interruptions which last more than 8 hours, the heating capacity is reduced by about 25%.
The declared technical data have been achieved by burning beech wood class “A1” according to the requirement UNI EN ISO 17225-5 and wood
moisture content less than 20%. By burning a dierent kind of wood the eciency of the product itself could change and some specic adjustments
on the appliance could be needed.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The cookers of La NORDICA are suitable to cook on the grill and on the oven and to heat living spaces for some periods or to support an
insucient centralized heating system. They are ideal for holiday apartments and weekend houses or as an auxiliary heating system during
the whole year. As fuel, wood logs is used. The appliance works as an intermittent operating appliance.
The cooker is made of galvanized and enamelled steel sheets and enamelled cast iron (doors, front side, plate).The hearth is totally sheathed
with single cast iron sheets. Inside there is a thick at grate. The hearth is equipped with a panoramic door with ceramic glass (resistant up to
700 °C) and outside tempered. This allows a wonderful view on the burning ames. Furthermore, it is thus avoided the output of sparks and
smoke.
Below the hearth door there is an extractable wood drawer, with the related closing door (C).
ACCESSORIES POKER GLOVE Chrome plated oven GRILLE Stainless steel TANK KIT
SERIES SERIES OPTIONAL OPTIONAL
The heating of the environment is made by irradiation: through the panoramic glass and the external hot surfaces of the stove, the heat is
radiated into the environment.
The cooker is equipped with controls of primary and secondary air by which it is adjusted the combustion air.
1A – PRIMARY AIR CONTROL (Picture 6)
With this air register, it is adjusted the passage of primary air into the low part of the cooker, through the drawer of ash and the grate in the
fuel direction. The primary air is necessary for the combustion process. The ash drawer must be regularly emptied, so that the ash does not
obstruct the primary air entry for the combustion. Through the primary air the re is also kept alive. When the knob is completely extracted,
the register is closed, when the bar is totally inserted, the register is open.
During wood combustion, the register of primary air must be opened only for a while, because otherwise the wood burns too fast and the
cooker may overheat.
