Emergency Procedures; Protecting The Beams - Nordica TERMOCAMINO 650 Gebrauchsanweisung

The solid combustion residues (ashes) must be collected in a metal container that is hermetically sealed and fire
resistant. The appliance must never be lit in the presence of gaseous emissions or vapours (for example: glue for
linoleum, petrol, etc,). Do not place flammable materials in the vicinity of the appliance.
During the combustion, thermal air is emitted by involving the heating of areas, door and glass hearth, of the door
handles or controls, of the smokes pipe and, in case, of the front part of appliance. Avoid to touch those parts without
a protective clothing or without accessory tools (gloves resistant to heat, control devices).
Instruct the children to achieve those dangers and keep them out from hearth during its operation. touched.
When using the wrong fuel or one which is too damp, due to deposits present in the flue, a flue fire is possible.

PROTECTING THE BEAMS

Considering the irradiation of the hearth, pay particular attention to protecting the beams when designing your
fireplace. Keep in mind both the proximity of the beams to the external faces of the hearth, and the irradiation of the
glass door, which is normally very close to the beams. In any case, remember that the internal or lower faces of this
beam in combustible material must not be in contact with temperatures above 65 ° C.
