Initial lighting

Open the air vent and ignition vent by pulling the handles
(fi g. 19 A and B) all the way out. (Use a glove or something
similar to protect your hand in case the handles are hot.).
Fig. 20
Place two logs at the bottom of the burn chamber and pile
the kindling in layers.
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 fi re. 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. 19 B) when the wood has
caught fi re properly and is burning well.
You can then regulate the rate of combustion to give the
heat you want by adjusting the air vent (fi g. 19 A).
Check that the afterburning (secondary combustion) starts.
This is best indicated by yellow, fl ickering fl ames in front of
the holes under the baffl e.
If the air fl ow is normal you will be able to shut the door and
the fi re will take care of itself.
Adding fi rewood
Stoke the stove frequently but only add small amounts of fuel
at a time. If the stove is fi lled too full, the heat created may
cause extreme stress in the chimney. Add fuel to the fi re in
moderation. Avoid smouldering fi res as this produces the most
pollution. The fi re is best when it is burning well and the smoke
from the chimney is almost invisible.
5.1 Danger of overheating
The fi replace 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 fi replace 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 fl ue pipe).

5.2 Ash removal
The Jøtul F 480 has an ash pan that makes it easy to
remove the ash.
Only remove ash when the fi replace is cold.
Scrape the ash through the grate in the inner bottom and
down into the ash pan. Use a glove or something similar to
protect your hand. Take hold of the handle of the ash pan
and lift out the ash. Make sure that the ash pan never gets
so full that it prevents the ash from falling through the grate
and down into the pan.
Make sure that the ash pan is pushed all the way in before
closing the door.

6.0 Maintenance

6.1 Cleaning the glass
The product is equipped with an air wash for the glass. Air is
sucked in through the air vent on the top of the product and
down along the inside of the glass.
However, some soot will always stick to the glass, but the
quantity will depend on the local draught conditions and
adjustment of the air vent. Most of the soot layer will normally
be burned off when the air vent is opened all the way and a fi re
is burning briskly in the fi replace.
Good advice! For normal cleaning, moisten a paper towel
with warm water and add some ash from the burn chamber.
Rub it over the glass and then clean the glass with clean water.
Dry well. If it is necessary to clean the glass more thoroughly
we recommend using a glass cleaner (follow the instructions
on the bottle).
6.2 Cleaning and soot removal
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 water and tar layer from forming in the
fi replace, you should regularly allow the fi re to burn hot in order
to remove the layer. An annual internal cleaning is necessary
to get the best heating eff ect from your product. It is a good
idea to do this when cleaning the chimney and fl ue pipes.
6.3 Sweeping fl ue pipes 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.
6.4 Inspection of the fi replace
Jøtul recommends that you carefully inspect your fi replace
yourself after 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 position. Any gaskets
showing signs of wear or deformation 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.
