NOTICES
·
BE SURE TO READ THIS ENTIRE
MANUAL BEFORE YOU INSTALL OR USE
YOUR NEW JØTUL OSLO F500 WOOD
STOVE.
·
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
EVEN DEATH.
·
Jøtul recommends that you have your new Jøtul
OSLO F500 installed by a professional installer
of solid fuel burning appliances.
·
EXTREMELY HOT WHILE IN OPERATION!
KEEP CHILDREN, CLOTHING AND
FURNITURE AWAY. CONTACT MAY
CAUSE SKIN BURNS.
·
Avoid creating a low pressure condition in the
room where the stove is operating. Operating an
exhaust fan or a clothes dryer could create a low
pressure area, causing poisonous gases to come
out of the stove into the room.
You can prevent low pressure conditions by
providing adequate combustion air within 24 but
not closer than 12 from the stove. Or, simply
install the optional outside air manifold system,
which allows the direct connection of air from
outside the house to the stove.
·
Do not use chemicals or fluids to start the fire.
Some fuels will, during combustion, separate
carbon monoxide and generate it in the burn
chamber. Carbon monoxide is toxic, so please
follow the guidelines in this manual for proper
operation of your Jøtul OSLO F500.
·
If you for some reason experience smoke roll-
out from the stove, it may activate smoke
detectors if installed in the house.
