Safety Notices

• BURN SOLID, NATURAL WOOD FUEL ONLY. DO NOT
BURN ANY OTHER FUEL.
• DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OR FLUIDS TO START A FIRE.
DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMABLE FUELS.
• DO NOT USE A GRATE OR ELEVATE THE FIRE. BUILD
THE FIRE DIRECTLY ON THE HEARTH.
• IF THIS ROOM HEATER IS NOT PROPERLY INSTALLED,
A HOUSE FIRE MAY RESULT. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
FIRE, FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS MANUAL.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY RE-
SULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, BODILY INJURY, OR LOSS
OF LIFE.
• CONTACT LOCAL BUILDING OR FIRE OFFICIALS ABOUT
RESTRICTIONS AND INSTALLATION INSPECTION RE-
QUIREMENTS IN YOUR AREA.
• ANY EXISTING CHIMNEY SYSTEM MUST BE INSPECTED
BEFORE INSTALLATION OF THIS APPLIANCE.
• DO NOT CONNECT THIS STOVE TO ANY AIR DISTRIBU-
TION DUCT OR SYSTEM.
• EXTREMELY HOT WHILE IN OPERATION! KEEP CHIL-
DREN, CLOTHING, AND FURNITURE AWAY. CONTACT
WILL CAUSE SKIN BURNS. USE A CHILD GUARD
SCREEN TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL CONTACT BY SMALL
CHILDREN.
• INSTALL SMOKE DETECTORS IN THE LIVING AREA AND
BEDROOMS OF YOUR HOME. TEST THEM REGULARLY
AND INSTALL FRESH BATTERIES TWICE ANNUALLY.
WHEN INSTALLED IN THE SAME ROOM AS THE STOVE,
A SMOKE OR CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR SHOULD
BE LOCATED AS FAR FROM THE STOVE AS POSSIBLE
TO PREVENT THE ALARM SOUNDING WHEN ADDING
FUEL.
• Avoid creating a low pressure condition in the room
where the stove is operating. Be aware that opera-
tion of an exhaust fan or clothes dryer can create a
low pressure area and consequently promote flow
reversal through the stove and chimney system. In
some cases, the optional Outside Air Kit #154335 can
be used to alleviate this condition. 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/per-
formance issues.
• Jøtul strongly recommends that this stove be in-
stalled 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.

Flue Collar Installation

The Flue Collar is oriented in the Top Exit position. Apply
the gasket to the collar before installing the chimney
connector.
Position Reversal
Follow this procedure to change the collar to a Rear Exit
position if appropriate.
1. Remove the Flue Collar by reaching through the
opening and removing the two bolts that secure it to
the top plate.
2. Using tin snips, cut out the panel from the Rear Heat
Shield for the Flue Collar to pass through. See fig. 1.
3. Remove the two screws that attach the Coverplate
to the rear outlet. Hold onto the Coverplate while
removing the second screw so that it does not fall out.
See fig. 2.
4. Using the same screws, attach the Flue Collar to the
rear outlet and the Coverplate to the Top Plate.
5. Install the Flue Collar gasket. Remove the protective
paper from the adhesive side and apply the gasket to
the inside of the Flue Collar.
