What temperature are you setting to print for this? 

 

 PLA print temperature is typically 185 to 205  degrees Celsius.  Carbon fiber is a bit higher  

 

Carbon Fiber Print Temperature typically is : 240-260 degrees Celsius

I am using PLA settings like Temperature 210-215 Degree Celcius, and can you please tell me what are the print parameters need to change. I am using 0.6 and 0.8mm diameter nozzle.

You need to go to the manufacturer of the filament and use the settings they suggest for printing.

You can but I would suggest, since it is a very abrasive material, you invest in one of Anders Olsson's Ruby nozzles.
