System Check - Jøtul Lillehammer Installation And Operation Instructions Manual

System Check

1. PURGING THE GAS LINE: When lighting the appliance
for the first time, it will take a few moments to clear
the gas line of air. Once this purge is complete, the
appliance will operate as described in the lighting
instructions. See the inside back cover of this manual
or the stove Rating Plate attached the bottom of the
stove. Subsequent burner starts will not require purg-
ing the gas line unless the supply line is shut off.
2. PILOT FLAME: You can monitor the pilot flame
through the opening at the upper left corner burner
skirt, under the rear log. See fig. 29. The pilot flame
should be steady - not lifting or floating. The flame
should be blue in color around the pilot hood, with
traces of yellow toward the outer edges.
The pilot flame should engulf the top 3/8" of the
thermopile (to generate millivolt current) and the
top 1/8" of the thermocouple. The pilot flame should
project out of the pilot hood 1" at all three ports. See
figs. 30.
3. BURNER ADJUSTMENT: This stove is equipped with
a variable gas control valve that allows easy adjust-
ment of the flame height appearance and heat
output. To adjust the flame, rotate the HI/LOW knob,
located in the center of the valve face.
NO SMOKE OR SOOT SHOULD BE PRESENT. CHECK
LOG PLACEMENT IF ANY SOOT OR SMOKE IS PRESENT.
IF SOOT OR SMOKE PERSISTS, THE AIR SHUTTER MAY
NEED TO BE ADJUSTED.
See Air Shutter/Flame Appearance section of this
manual for proper air shutter settings and adjust-
ments. Note: the more offsets there are in the vent
system, the greater the need for an air shutter adjust-
ment. See page 30.
WARNING:
AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENTS SHOULD ONLY BE
PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED PROFESSIONAL
SERVICE TECHNICIAN.
