Safety Notices
• BURN SOLID WOOD FUEL ONLY. DO NOT BURN
OTHER FUELS.
• DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OR FLUIDS TO
START THE FIRE. DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR
FLAMMABLE FLUIDS.
• IF THIS ROOM HEATER IS NOT PROPERLY
INSTALLED, A HOUSE FIRE MAY RESULT. TO
REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, FOLLOW THE
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN
PROPERTY DAMAGE, BODILY INJURY, OR LOSS
OF LIFE.
• CONTACT THE LOCAL BUILDING OR FIRE
OFFICIALS ABOUT RESTRICTIONS AND
INSTALLATION INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS IN
YOUR AREA. WHEN NOT ADDRESSED IN THIS
MANUAL, OR BY LOCAL CODE AUTHORITIES,
INSTALLATION SPECIFICATIONS AND
REQUIREMENTS DEFER TO NFPA
211
OR CSA B
365.
• DO NOT CONNECT THIS FIREPLACE TO ANY AIR
DISTRIBUTION DUCT OR SYSTEM.
• DO NOT USE GRATES OR ANDIRONS TO
ELEVATE THE FIRE. BUILD FIRE DIRECTLY ON
THE FIRECHAMBER FLOOR.
• EXTREMELY HOT WHILE IN OPERATION! KEEP
CHILDREN, CLOTHING AND FURNITURE AWAY.
CONTACT WILL CAUSE SKIN BURNS.
• NEVER OPERATE THE FIREPLACE WITH A
CRACKED OR BROKEN GLASS PANEL.
• Install smoke detectors in the living areas and
bedrooms of your home. Test them regularly
and install new batteries twice annually.
When installed in the same room as the stove,
a smoke detector should be located as far
from the stove as possible to prevent it from
sounding when adding fuel to the fire.
• Avoid creating a low pressure condition in
the room where the stove is operating. Be
aware that operation of an exhaust fan or
clothes dryer can create a low pressure area
and consequently promote flow reversal
through the stove and chimney system. The
chimney and building, however, always work
together as a system - provision of outside
air, directly or indirectly to an atmospherically
vented appliance will not guarantee proper
chimney performance. Consult your local
Jøtul authorized dealer regarding specific
installation/performance issues.
