• Gradually increase the size of the fire, but the wood should

not be stacked higher than the horizontal holes on the back

burn plate. See fig. 29 H.

• Finally, place a medium-sized log on the top of the pile.

• Place 2 or 3 briquettes or kindling sticks under the top layer

of kindling and light the fire.

• NB: The maximum height of the pile of the wood should

be just below the horizontal holes. The holes must not be

covered.

• Close the ignition vent (fig. 29 B) when the firewood has

ignited and the fire is burning well.

• Check that the afterburning (secondary combustion) starts. This

is best indicated by yellow, flickering flames under the baffle.

• Then regulate the rate of combustion to the desired level of

heating by adjusting the air vent (fig. 29 A).

Adding firewood

Stoke the stove frequently but only add small amounts of fuel at

a time. If the stove is filled too full, the heat created may cause

extreme stress in the chimney. Add fuel to the fire in moderation.

Avoid smouldering fires as this produces the most pollution.

The fire is best when it is burning well and the smoke from the

chimney is almost invisible.

4.7 Danger of overheating

The fireplace must never be used in a manner that

causes overheating

Overheating occurs when there is too much fuel and/or too much

air so that too much heat develops. A sure sign of overheating is

when parts of the fireplace glow red. If this happens, reduce the

air vent opening immediately.

Seek professional advice if you suspect that the chimney is not

drawing properly (too much/too little draught). For further

information, see «4.0 Installation» (Chimney and flue pipe).

4.8 Ash removal

Jøtul F 360 Series have an ash pan which makes it easy to remove the

ashes.

1. Only remove ashes when the fireplace is cold.

2. Push/pull the handle for the ash grate/ignition vent out and

in several times so that the ashes fall down into the ash pan.

Use something like a glove to grab the handle on the ash pan.

3. Make sure that the ash pan doesn’t fill up so high that it keeps

ash from coming through the grate into the pan.

4. Make sure the door to the ash pan is securely shut when the

stove is in use.

5.0 Daily use

Odours when using the fireplace for the first time

When the fireplace is used for the first time, it may emit an

irritating gas which may smell slightly. This happens because

the paint dries.The gas is not toxic but the room should be

thoroughly ventilated. Let the fire burn with a high draught until

all traces of the gas have disappeared and no smoke or odours

can be detected.

Heating advice

NB: Logs that have been stored outdoors or in a cold room should

be brought indoors 24 hours before use to bring them up to room

temperature.

There are various ways of heating the stove but it is always

important to be careful about what you put in the stove. See the

section on “Wood quality”.

Wood quality

By quality wood we mean most well-known types of wood such

as birch, spruce and pine.

The logs should be dried so that the moisture content is no more

than 20%.

To achieve this, the logs should be cut during the late winter. They

should be split and stacked in a way that ensures good ventilation.

The wood stacks should be covered to protect the logs from rain.

The logs should be brought indoors during early autumn and

stacked/stored for use in the coming winter.

Be especially careful never to use the following materials as fuel

in your fireplace:

• Household rubbish, plastic bags, etc.

• Painted or impregnated timber (which is extremely toxic).

• Laminated wooden planks.

• Driftwood

These may harm the product and are also pollutants.

NB: Never use petrol, paraffin, methylated spirit or similar liquids

to light the fire. You may cause serious injury to yourself and

damage to the product.

Wood consumption

Jøtul F 360 Series have a nominal heat output of 5,5 kW.

Use of wood, with nominal heat emission: Approx. 1,9 kg/h.

Another important factor for proper fuel consumption is that

the logs are the correct size. The size of the logs should be:

Kindling (finely split wood):

Length: approx. 30 cm

Diameter: 2-5 cm

Quantity required each time: 6 - 8 pieces

Wood (split wood):

Recommended length: 20 - 30 cm

Diameter: Approx. 8 cm

Interval for adding wood: Approx. every 45 minutes

Fire size: 1,4 kg (nominal output)

Quantity required each time: 2

Nominal heat output is achieved when the air vent is open

approx. 100% (Fig. 29 A) and the handle for the ignition vent

(Fig. 29 B) pulled out approx. 1-2 cm.
