3.0 Safety
NB! To guarantee optimal performance and safety, Jøtul
recommends that its stoves are fi tted by a qualifi ed
installer (see www.jotul.com for a complete list of dealers).
Any modifi cations to the product 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. The specifi ed distance to
fl ammable materials, applies to this stove. The stove must
be installed with a CE approved fl ue. The distance of the
fl ue pipe to combustible materials must also be observed.
•
Ensure that furniture and other fl ammable materials are not
too close to the fi replace. Flammable materials should not
be placed within 1000 mm 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 fi replace 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.
In case of chimney fi re:
•
Close all hatches and vents.
•
Keep the fi rebox door closed.
•
Call the fi re service.
•
Before use after a fi re an expert must check the fi replace
and the chimney in order to ensure that it is fully functional.
3.2 Floor
Foundation
You need to make sure the foundation is suitable for a fi replace.
See "2.0 Technical Data" for specifi ed weight.
We recommend the removal of any fl ooring that is not attached
to the foundation ("fl oating fl oors") beneath the installation.
Requirements for protection of wooden
fl ooring beneath the fi replace
The product can be placed directly on a wooden fl oor,
protected by a fl oor plate made from non combustible material
(recommended thickness - minimum 0,9 mm)
Jøtul recommends that any fl ooring made of combustible
material, such as linoleum, carpets, etc. should be removed
from under the fl oor plate.

Requirements for protection of
infl ammable fl oors in front of the fi replace
The front plate must comply with national laws and regulations.
Please note that there is a side door on the product. Contact
your local building authorities regarding restrictions and
installation requirements.
3.3 Walls
•
The product should be placed so that it is possible to clean
the stove, fl ue pipe and chimney outlet.
•
Make sure furniture and other combustible materials do not
get too close to the stove.
•
Make sure furniture and other items are not placed too
close to the stove, to prevent them from drying out.
Distance to walls made of combustible material - see fi g. 1
The stove must be installed with a CE approved fl ue pipe.
The distance from fl ue pipes to combustible materials must
also be taken into account.
Combustible wall protected by fi rewall
Distance to combustible wall protected by fi rewall: See fi g. 1.
Distances with insulated chimney/shielded fl ue pipe are shown
in fi g. 1.
Firewall requirement
The fi rewall must be at least 100 mm thick and be made of
brick, concrete-stone or light concrete. Other materials and
structures with satisfactory documentation may also be used.
Non-combustible wall (all the way through)
The fi replace can be installed with a minimum of 200 mm to
non-combustible wall if the distance from the fi replace to all
combustible materials are a minimum of 500 mm.
Non-combustible materials mean materials like brick, clinker,
concrete, mineral wool, cilicate plates etc (materials that do
not burn). Note! A short distance to non-combustible wall
may lead to desiccation and discoloration of paint and cause
cracking.
3.4 Ceiling
There must be a minimum distance of 750 mm to a combustible
ceiling above the fi replace.
