System Check - Jøtul GF 600 DV II 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. From
a cold start, it may be helpful to let the pilot
light burn for 10 - 15 minutes to establish
positive draft, before turning the burner on.
See the inside back cover of this manual or the
stove Rating Plate attached the bottom of the
stove. Subsequent lightings of the stove will not
require purging the gas line unless the supply line is
shut off.
2. PILOT FLAME: 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 fig. 28.
Be certain that the burner plate is securely
positioned so that the carry-over ports are
aligned with the Main Pilot flame as in fig. 28a.
3. BURNER ADJUSTMENT: The Jøtul GF 600 DV II
Firelight gas stove is equipped with a variable gas
control valve that provides 50% turn-down of the
flame height, appearance, and heat output.
To adjust the flame between the HI and LOW
setting, rotate the HI/LOW knob, located in the
center of the valve face. See figs.15 and 29.
NO SMOKE OR SOOT SHOULD BE PRESENT.
CHECK LOG PLACEMENT IF ANY SOOT OR SMOKE IS
DETECTED. IF SOOT OR SMOKE PERSISTS, THE AIR
SHUTTER MAY NEED TO BE ADJUSTED.
Note: the more offsets there are in the vent
system, the greater the need for an air shutter
adjustment.
WARNING:
AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENTS SHOULD
ONLY BE PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED
PROFESSIONAL SERVICE TECHNICIAN.
CAUTION:
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ALTER THE FLAME
APPEARANCE BY POSITIONING THE GAS
VALVE IN ANY OTHER POSITION OTHER
THAN THE FULL "ON" POSITION.
