Jøtul F 118 Black Bear 2/16
Safety Notices
• Burn solid wood fuel only
• 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.
• Do not connect this stove to any air distribution duct
or system.
• Extremely hot while in operation! Keep children,
clothing and furniture away. Contact will cause skin
burns.
• 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.
• Jøtul recommends that this stove be installed by a
professional solid fuel technician or that you consult
one if you do the work yourself. Also, consult your
insurance company regarding any other specific
requirements.
