.6 Disposal of ashes
A
sh from natural (non-treated) wood burned in stoves or open fireplaces is composed mainly of calcium, silicon, potassium and magnesium
oxides. The ashes can therefore be used as a fertiliser for plants or in the garden, albeit not exceeding 2.6 kg per 10m
2
annually.
The ashes should be placed in a metal container with a sealed cover. The sealed container should be placed on a non-combustible
surface at a safe distance from combustible materials until the cinders have been completely extinguished.
Only when they have been fully extinguished can the ashes be thrown away with organic waste, assuming that nails or other non-
organic material are not present.

4.8 Shutting down
Before any long period during which the stove will be inactive we recommend that you carry out a thorough cleaning, thereby avoiding en-
crustations and oxidations which will be difficult to clean later. We also recommend that as a preventative measure you carry out a general
checkup as outlined in the paragraph headed “Periodic control”.
After a period of inactivity problems relating to the expansion of parts or the release of odorous gases may arise. We therefore recommend
that upon restarting the unit you do not immediately run it at full power. Nor should you activate the ventilation system until the odorous gases
have dispersed. This problem can be dealt with by simply airing the room.

4.7 Seal control
Proper tightness of the door seal is essential for optimal product performance. It is therefore recommended that the seals be checked peri-
odically or after a long period of use for signs of wear or damage. If necessary replace them using Gruppo Piazzetta S.p.A. original spare
parts.

4.5 Cleaning the grate and the ash tray (EVERY DAY)
The grate and the ash tray must be cleaned daily. Using the grate for a whole day contributes to the accumulation of ash or residual com-
bustion products.
I
f cleaning is not done regularly there will be an excess of residues, which will affect appliance efficiency.
The ash tray also needs emptying regularly, because if it fills up and obstructs the grate grid it will cause appliance malfunction.
