Assembling Of The Flue; Operating Instructions; Initial Lighting; Daily Use - Jøtul F 100 Manuel D'installation Et D'utilisation

Note! A correct and sealed connection is very important
for the proper functioning of the product.

Assembling of the flue

Initially, assemble and provisionally position the stove
without making any holes in the pipe. The stove may be
assembled with an Ø125 mm flue.
Drill a hole for the flue pipe. Clearance from the stove to
firewall/chimney must be at least 100 mm. Always use a
chimney collar when connecting to chimney. Use the
supplier's recommended chimney collar when connecting
to an element chimney. When connecting to the chimney,
follow the supplier's assembly and usage instructions
closely with regard to drying time of mortar/furnace
cement before starting to use the fireplace.
Ensure that the flue pipe never slants down towards the
chimney. At a minimum it shall be horizontal, preferably a
few millimetres climb.
Be alert to the fact that it is particularly important that
connections have a certain flexibility. This is to prevent
setting of the house from leading to fissuration.
If necessary, contact your Jøtul-dealer or the local chimney
sweeping service for installation advice.

Operating instructions

Jøtul F 100 is a clean-burning stove that, with the help of
secondary combustion, ensures that poisonous gases and
particles are burnt. It is very important that the system is
used correctly.
The Jøtul F 100 is equipped with the following control:
Air vent control. fig. 2 - A
Left position Closed
Right position Fully open

Initial lighting

• Open the air vent control fully by pushing it to the right.
(Fig. 2A).
• Make a small fire to start with. Leave the door a little
ajar until the wood catches fire. Increase the size
gradually and keep the fire going for a couple of hours.
Repeat this a couple of times.
Note! Odours when using the stove for the first time.
Painted products: When lighting a fire for the first time, it is
normal for a new painted stove to emit an irritating gas,
which may smell and even give off smoke. The gas is not
poisonous, but open a window or a door near the stove to
provide additional ventilation.
Enamelled products: The first few times a new product is
used, there may be some condensation water on the
surface of the stove. To avoid permanent spots, it is
important that the condensation is dried off immediately.
Daily use (fig. 6)
Place two medium-sized pieces of wood on each side of
the combustion chamber. Screw up some newspaper and
place between the wood. Then place some kindling wood
in a criss-cross pattern over it. Light the fire and continue
to add a further amount of split dry wood until a healthy
bed of glowing coals has formed. You can now add 2 - 3
small to medium pieces of wood. Allow this fire to burn for
a short while.
Close the door when you are sure that the wood is burning
well. Control that the secondary combustion has occurred.
This you may see as yellow flames burning under the baffle
plate. Adjust the primary air control to set your desired
heat output level and to maintain safe operating
temperatures. (Fig. 2A).
(Use the loose handle or a glove because of the heat).
NB! Never use gasoline or similar liquids to start or "freshen
up" a fire.
Remove the ash when needed. Never let the stove become
so full that the ash spills over the ash retainer.
Always use good quality firewood. It gives the best results
and does not damage the product.
Never use the following on the fire:
- household waste
- painted or impregnated timber - which is very toxic
- laminated wooden planks
- drift wood
- plastic or any other type of waste product
These may harm the product and are also pollutants!
Note! Danger of overheating: The stove must never be used
in a manner that causes overheating.
Overheating is defined as overfilling the stove with
firewood and/or leaving the draught vent fully open.
The chimney draught should never exceed 2,5 mm H
when the stove is in use.
A sure sign of overheating is when parts of the stove glows
red. When this happens, reduce the draught vent opening
immediately.
