NB!

To guarantee optimal performance and safety, Jøtul

stoves must be

tted by a quali

ed installer.

Any modi

cations 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 Jøtul. This may
also be the case if parts that are essential to the functioning and
safety of the

replace 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.

The Clean Air Act

“The Clean Air Act 1993 and Smoke Control Areas”

Under the Clean Air Act local authorities may declare the
whole or part of the district of the authority to be a smoke
control area. It is an o

ﬀ

ence to emit smoke from a chimney of

a building, from a furnace or from any

xed boiler if located in a

designated smoke control area. It is also an o

ﬀ

ence to acquire

an “unauthorised fuel” for use within a smoke control area
unless it is used in an “exempt” appliance (“exempted” from
the controls which generally apply in the smoke control area).

In England appliances are exempted by publication on a list
by the Secretary of State in accordance with changes made to
sections 20 and 21 of the Clean Air Act 1993 by section 15 of
the Deregulation Act 2015. Similarly in Scotland appliances are
exempted by publication on a list by Scottish Ministers under
section 50 of the Regulatory Reform (Scotland) Act 2014.

In Northern Ireland appliances are exempted by publication
on a list by the Department of Agriculture, Environment and
Rural A

ﬀ

airs under Section 16 of the Environmental Better

regulation Act (Northern Ireland) 2016.
In Wales appliances are exempted by regulations made by
Welsh Ministers.

Your local authority is responsible for implementing the Clean
Air Act 1993 including designation and supervision of smoke
control areas and you can contact them for details of Clean Air
Act requirements.

The Jøtul FS 520 FRL has been recommended as suitable for

use in smoke control areas when burning wood logs.

3.1 Fire Prevention Measures

There is a certain element of danger every time you use

your

replace. The following instructions must therefore be

followed:

• The minimum safety distances when installing and using

the

replace are given in

g. 1.

• Ensure that furniture and other

ammable materials are

not too close to the

replace. Flammable materials should

not be placed within

1000 mm

of the

replace.

• Allow

the

re to burn out. Never extinguish the

ames with

water.

• The

replace becomes hot when lit and may cause burns

if touched.

• Only remove ash when the

replace is cold. Ash can

contain hot embers and should therefore be placed in a

non-

ammable container.

• Ash should be placed outdoors or be emptied in a place

where it will not present a potential

re hazard.

In case of chimney

re:

• Close all hatches and vents.
• Keep

the

rebox door closed.

• Check the loft and cellar for smoke.
• Call

the

re service.

Before use after a

re an expert must check the

replace and

the chimney in order to ensure that it is fully functional.

Connecting to chimney

Installation of a

replace must be according to European,

national and local standards and regulations regarding the
safety distances for stoves/inserts, flue pipes and steel
chimneys. Please note that a CE marked

ue pipe may require

a longer distance to

ammable material than the safety distance

to the stove.

3.2 Floor

Foundations

Ensure that the

oor is strong enough for the

replace. See
