Jøtul F 162 Installation And Operating Instructions Manual page 7

Air supply
The outside air connection may be fi tted directly to the product
through:
• Through a fl exible supply hose from the outside or chimney
(only if the chimney has its own duct for external air) and to
the product's outside air connector.

Important! The knockout for the outside air connection must be removed
from the inside. Use safety goggles.
Tip: It is a great advantage if the rear leg is dismounted before
removing the knockout.
1. Lay the product carefully down on its side. You can put
the cardboard packaging on the fl oor to protect it from
scratches, etc.
2. Remove the rear leg.
3. Use a heavy mallet and strike hard in the middle of the
knockout.

3.0 Safety
NB! To guarantee optimal performance and safety, Jøtul stoves must
be fi tted by a qualifi ed installer.
Any modifi 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 fi 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.
3.1 Fire Prevention Measures
There is a certain element of danger every time you use your
fi replace. The following instructions must therefore be followed:
• The minimum safety distances when installing and using
the fi replace are given in fi g. 1.
• Ensure that furniture and other fl ammable materials are not
too close to the fi replace. Flammable materials should not
be placed within 1 metre of the fi replace.
• Allow the fi re to burn out. Never extinguish the fl ames with
water.
• The fi replace becomes hot when lit and may cause burns
if touched.
• Only remove ash when the fireplace is cold. Ash can
contain hot embers and should therefore be placed in a
non-fl ammable container.
• Ash should be placed outdoors or be emptied in a place
where it will not present a potential fi re hazard.
