MAINTENANCE

CLEANING THE GLASS

Jøtul's fi replaces are fi ed with air washing of the glass. Via the air vent, air is defl ected down along the inside of the glass, reducing the accumula on
of soot deposits.
There will always be some soot on the glass, however, but the amount depends on the local condi ons and the adjustment of the air vent. Most of
the soot layer will normally be burned off when the air vent is fully opened and the fi re is burning briskly.
Good advice! Normal cleaning – take a piece of kitchen paper and dampen it with warm water. Dab it on some ash from the burn chamber then
rub the glass with the paper. Wipe clean with fresh water. Dry well. If the glass needs cleaning more thoroughly, use a detergent for glass (follow
the manufacturer's instruc ons on the bo le).

CLEANING AND REMOVING SOOT

Soot deposits may build up on the internal surfaces of the fi replace during use. Soot is a good insulator and will therefore reduce the fi replace's
heat output. If soot deposits accumulate when using the product, they can easily be removed by using a soot remover.
In order to prevent a layer of water and tar from forming in the fi replace, you should regularly allow the fi re to burn hot in order to remove the
layer. Your product should be cleaned internally once a year to ensure the best hea ng eff ect. It is a good idea to do this when cleaning the chimney
and fl ue pipes.

SWEEPING THE FLUE PIPE TO THE CHIMNEY

Flue pipes must be swept through the fl ue pipe sweeping hatch or through the door opening. The baffl e and exhaust defl ector must be removed
fi rst.

CHECKING THE FIREPLACE

Jøtul recommends that you carefully inspect your fi replace yourself a er it has been swept/cleaned. Check all visible surfaces for cracks. Also check
that all joints are sealed and that the gaskets are in the correct posi on. Any gaskets showing signs of wear or deforma on must be replaced.
Thoroughly clean the gasket grooves, apply ceramic glue (available from your local Jøtul dealer) and press the gasket well into place. The joint will
dry quickly.

EXTERNAL MAINTENANCE

Painted products may change colour a er they have been used for several years. The surface should be cleaned and brushed free of any loose
par cles before new paint is applied.
NB: Do not place anything on the stove's top plate, as this could result in permanent damage to the paintwork.

RECYCLING PACKAGING

Your fi replace is delivered with the following packaging:
A wooden pallet can be cut up and burned in the fi replace.
Cardboard packaging should be taken to a local recycling facility.
Plas c bags should be taken to a local recycling facility.

RECYCLING THE FIREPLACE

The fi replace is made of:
Metal should be taken to a local recycling facility.
Glass should be disposed of as hazardous waste. The glass in
the fi replace must not be placed in a regular source segrega on
container.
Burn plates made of vermiculite can be sorted as normal
construc on waste.
