3.0 Safety

NB! To guarantee optimal performance and safety, Jøtul stoves must be fitted by a qualified installer.

Any modifications to the product by the distributor, installer or consumer may result in the product and safety features not functioning as intended. The same applies to the installation of accessories or optional extras not supplied by Jotul. This may also be the case if parts that are essential to the functioning and safety of the fireplace have been disassembled or removed.

In all these cases, the manufacturer is not responsible or liable for the product and the right to make a complaint becomes null and void.

3.1 Fire Prevention Measures

There is a certain element of danger every time you use your fireplace. The following instructions must therefore be followed:

• The minimum safety distances when installing and using the fireplace are given in fig. 1a.
• Ensure that furniture and other flammable materials are not too close to the fireplace. Flammable materials should not be placed within 1 meter in front of the fireplace.
• Allow the fire to burn out. Never extinguish the flames with water.
• The fireplace becomes hot when lit and may cause burns if touched.
• Only remove ash when the fireplace is cold. Ash can contain hot embers and should therefore be placed in a non-flammable container.
• Ash should be placed outdoors or be emptied in a place where it will not present a potential fire hazard.

In case of chimney fire:

• Close all hatches and vents.
• Keep the firebox door closed.
• Check the loft and cellar for smoke.
  Call the fire service.
• Before use after a fire an expert must check the fireplace and the chimney in order to ensure that it is fully functional.

3.2 Floor

Foundations

Ensure that the floor is strong enough for the fireplace. See «2.0 Technical data» for weights. It is recommended that flooring which is not fastened to the foundations – so-called floating flooring – is removed during installation.

Combustible floor protection

The product has integrated floor protection and may therefore be placed directly on a wodden floor.

Any flooring made of combustible material, such as linoleum, carpets, etc. should be removed from under the floor plate.

Requirements for protection of inflammable floors in front of the fireplace

The plate must be in accordance with national laws and regulations.

Contact your local building authority regarding restrictions and installation requirements.

3.3 Walls (fig. 1a)

Distance to wall made of combustible material

Distance to wall with insulated flue pipe: See fig. 1a.

Distance to walls covered by a firewall

Contact your local building authority regarding restrictions and installation requirements.

Firewall requirement

The firewall must be at least 100 mm thick and be made of brick, concrete-stone or light concrete. Other materials and constructions with satisfactory documentation may also be used.

Distance to non combustible walls

By non combustible one means a non load-bearing wall of solid brickwork/concrete.

Contact your local building authority regarding restrictions and installation requirements.

3.4 Ceiling

If the ceiling above the fireplace is made of a combustible material, the minimum distance between the fireplace and ceiling must be 1000mm .

4.o Installation

The product is delivered in at least 2 packing cases.

N.B. Check that the fireplace is free of any damage prior to commencing installation.

The product is heavy! Make sure you have assistance when erecting and installing the fireplace.

4.1 Chimneys and flue pipes

• The fireplace can be connected to a chimney and flue pipe approved for solid fuel fired appliances with flue gas temperatures specified in «2.0 Technical data».
• The chimney's cross-section must be at least as big as the flue pipe's cross-section. See «2.0 Technical data» when calculating the correct chimney cross-section.
• Several solid fuel fired appliances can be connected to the same chimney if the chimney's cross-section is sufficient. Contact your local building authority regarding restrictions and installation requirements.
  Before making a hole in the chimney the fireplace should be test-mounted in order to correctly mark the position of the fireplace and the hole in the chimney. See fig. 1 for minimum dimensions.

• Connection to the chimney must be carried out in accordance with the installation instructions from the supplier of the chimney.

• Ensure that the flue pipe is inclined all the way up to the chimney.

• Use a flue pipe bend with a sweeping hatch that allows it to be swept.

Be aware of the fact that it is particularly important that connections have a certain flexibility in order to prevent movement in the installation leading to cracks.

N.B. A correct and sealed connection is very important for the proper functioning of the product.

Chimney draught; See «2.o Technical data». If the draught is too strong you can install and operate a flue damper to control the draught.

• Pulled out completely (the label visible): Ignition.

• Pushed in (the label not visible): Air vent.

5.o Daily use

Odours when using the fireplace for the first time

When the fireplace is used for the first time, it may emit an irritating gas which may smell slightly. This happens because the paint dries. The gas is not toxic but the room should be thoroughly ventilated. Let the fire burn with a high draught until all traces of the gas have disappeared and no smoke or odours can be detected.

5.1 Operation

Heating advice

NB: Logs that have been stored outdoors or in a cold room should be brought indoors 24 hours before use to bring them up to room temperature.

There are various ways of heating the stove but it is always important to be careful about what you put in the stove. See the section on "Wood quality".

Wood quality

By quality wood we mean most well-known types of wood such as birch, spruce and pine.

The logs should be dried so that the moisture content is no more than 20% .

To achieve this, the logs should be cut during the late winter. They should be split and stacked in a way that ensures good ventilation. The wood stacks should be covered to protect the logs from rain. The logs should be brought indoors during early autumn and stacked/stored for use in the coming winter.

Be especially careful never to use the following materials as fuel in your fireplace:

Household rubbish, plastic bags, etc.
- Painted or impregnated timber (which is extremely toxic).
- Laminated wooden planks.
Driftwood

These may harm the product and are also pollutants.

NB: Never use petrol, paraffin, methylated spirit or similar liquids to light the fire. You may cause serious injury to yourself and damage to the product.

Wood consumption

Use of wood, with nominal heat emission: Approx. 1,6 kg/h. Another important factor for proper fuel consumption is that the logs are the correct size. The size of the logs should be:

Kindling:

Length: 23-33 cm

Diameter: 2 - 5 cm

Amount per fire: 6-8 pieces

Firewood (split logs):

Length: 23 - 33 cm

Diameter: Approx. 8 cm

Intervals for adding wood: Approximately every 45 minutes

Size of the fire: 1,2 kg

Amount per load: 2 pieces

Nominal heat emission is achieved when the air vent is open approximately 57% .

Ignition

Fig. 25

• Open the ignition vent and air vent by pulling the handle all the way out. (Use a glove or something similar to protect your hand in case the handles are hot.)

• Place two logs at the bottom of the burn chamber and pile the kindling in layers.
• Finally, place a medium-sized log on the top of the pile.
• Place 2 or 3 briquettes or kindling sticks under the top layer of kindling and light the fire.

ENGLISH

Heating

Fig. 26

• Leave the ignition-/air vent 24mm (Fig. 26) open when the wood has caught fire properly and is burning well.
• Close the door.
• You can then regulate the rate of combustion to give the heat you want by adjusting the air vent.
• Check that the afterburning (secondary combustion) starts. This is best indicated by yellow, flickering flames in front of the holes under the baffle.

Adding firewood

Stoke the stove frequently but only add small amounts of fuel at a time. If the stove is filled too full, the heat created may cause extreme stress in the chimney. Add fuel to the fire in moderation. Avoid smouldering fires as this produces the most pollution. The fire is best when it is burning well and the smoke from the chimney is almost invisible.

5.2 Danger of overheating

The fireplace must never be used in a manner that causes overheating

Overheating occurs when there is too much fuel and/or too much air so that too much heat develops. A sure sign of overheating is when parts of the fireplace glow red. If this happens, reduce the air vent opening immediately.

Seek professional advice if you suspect that the chimney is not drawing properly (too much/too little draught). For further information, see «4.0 Installation» (Chimney and flue pipe).

5.3 Ash removal

The product have an ash pan which makes it easy to remove the ash.

Use the fireplace set (Fig. 24).

Warning: The fireplace set can get hot.

Fig. 27

1. Scrape the ash through the grate (Fig. 27A) in the base plate and into the ash pan. Use a glove to grab the handle on the ash pan.
2. Make sure that the ash pan doesn't fill up so high that it keeps ash from coming through the grate into the pan.

6.o Service

Warning! Any unauthorised change to the product is not allowed. Only use original spare parts.

All service must be done when the stove is cold!

6.1 Changing the burn plates/inner bottom plate

Fig.28

• Remove the baffle plate (Fig. 28 A)
• Remove the side burn plates (Fig. 28 E) by lifting them up a little and then out. (Be aware if using tools, that vermiculite plates may be damaged by rough handling).
• Unscrew the M8x25 mm screw on the rear burn plate (Fig. 28 F) and remove the burn plate.
• Then lift up and remove the inner bottom plate (Fig. 28C).

Follow the same procedure for installation, but in the opposite sequence.

6.2 Changing the baffle plate

• Lift the baffle plate (Fig. 28 A) and remove it through the door. Access is then easy to baffle plate II (Fig. 28 B) if this needs to be removed. This is situated on 1 knob on the side burn plate and on the air manifold (Fig. 28 D).
• Edge it down and remove it through the door. For re-installation follow the same procedure in the opposite sequence.

6.3 Adjusting the base door

Fig. 35

If adjusting is needed - see figure 29.

7.o Maintenance

All maintenance must be done when the stove is cold!

7.1 Cleaning and soot removal

Soot deposits may build up on the internal surfaces of the fireplace during use. Soot is a good insulator and will therefore reduce the fireplace's heat output. If soot deposits accumulate when using the product, they can easily be removed by using a soot remover.

In order to prevent a water and tar layer from forming in the fireplace, you should regularly allow the fire to burn hot in order to remove the layer. An annual internal cleaning is necessary to get the best heating effect from your product. It is a good idea to do this when cleaning the chimney and flue pipes.

7.2 Sweeping flue pipes to the chimney

Flue pipes must be swept through the flue pipe sweeping hatch or through the door opening.

One of the baffles will have to be removed first in order to do this.

7.3 Inspection of the fireplace

Jotul recommends that you carefully inspect your fireplace yourself after it has been swept/cleaned. Check all visible surfaces for cracks. Also check that all joints are sealed and that the gaskets are in the correct position. Any gaskets showing signs of wear or deformation must be replaced.

Thoroughly clean the gasket grooves, apply ceramic glue (available from your local Jotul dealer) and press the gasket well into place. The joint will dry quickly.

7.4 Exterior maintenance

Painted products may change colour after several years' usage. The surface should be cleaned and brushed free of any loose particles before new paint is applied.

Jøtul AS provides its customers with a ten-year warranty with the right to return external cast-iron items if they show defects as a result of faulty materials and/or manufacturing after the initial purchase/installation of the fireplace. The buyer is entitled to return the goods provided that the fireplace has been installed in compliance with current laws and regulations and in compliance with Jøtul's installation and operating instructions.

The warranty does not cover:

The installation of optional extras, for example, to rectify local draught conditions, air supply or other circumstances beyond Jotul's control. The warranty does not cover consumables, such as burn plates, smoke baffles, fire grates, bottom grates, brick refractories, dampers and gaskets as they deteriorate over time due to normal wear and tear. The warranty does not cover damage caused as a result of using unsuitable fuel when lighting the fire, such as driftwood, impregnated and painted wood, plank offcuts, chipboard, etc. Overheating may easily occur if unsuitable fuel is used, i.e. the fireplace becomes red hot, which causes the paint to discolour and the cast iron parts to crack.

The warranty is not valid for damage caused while the product is in transit from the distributor to the delivery address. The warranty is not valid either for damage caused by the use of non-original parts.
