Safety notices:
• Be sure to read this entire manual before you install or use
your new Jøtul F 500 woodstove.
• 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 even death.
• Jøtul recommends that you have your new Jøtul F 500
installed by a professional installer of solid fuel burning
appliances.
• Extremely hot while in operation! Keep children, clothing and
furniture away. Contact may cause skin burns.
• Avoid creating a low pressure condition in the room where
the stove is operating. Operating an exhaust fan or a clothes
dryer could create a low pressure area, causing poisonous
gases to come out of the stove into the room.
• You can prevent low pressure conditions by providing
adequate combustion air within 24" (610mm) but not closer
than 12" (305mm) from the stove. Or, simply install the
optional outside air manifold system, which allows the direct
connection of air from outside the house to the stove.
• Do not use chemicals or fluids to start the fire. Some fuels will,
during combustion, separate carbon monoxide and generate
it in the burn chamber. Carbon monoxide is toxic, so please
follow the guidelines in this manual for proper operation of
your Jøtul F 500.
• If you for some reason experience smoke "roll-out" from
the stove, it may activate smoke detectors if installed in the
house.
