pipe.
2. In a protected alcove installation both side walls and
rear wall must be protected per NFPA 211 or CAN/CSA-
B365. The wall protection must be elevated 1"(24,5mm)
from the floor and at least 1" (24,5mm)off the
combustible wall to allow for an air-flow.
3. The height of the wall protection including the bottom
air space must be 48"(1219mm).
4. The bottom heatshield is required in all alcove
installations.
5. If a listed (UL/ULC) hearth board is not used the hearth
that is constructed must have a minimum r value of
1.6 (see appendix a, page 19).
6. Minimum ceiling height in an unprotected installation,
off the top of the stove is 48"(1219mm). The minimum
ceiling height off the top of the stove in a protected
ceiling installation is 15"(380mm).
Use of the left side load door is prohibited in alcove
installations.

Mobile Home Installations:

The Jøtul F 500 has been approved for use in mobile homes
in the U.S. and Canada, provided:
1. The stove is secured to the floor or the mobile home.
Floor mounting kit #750304.
2. The stove is provided outside air for combustion.
Outside Air kit #154333 (see page 11 for more details)

Operation:

Before building a fire in your new Jøtul F 500, please read
the following section carefully and completely.
This stove is designed to burn natural wood only. Wood
that has been air-dried for a period of 6 to 14 months will
provide the cleanest most efficient heat.
Do not burn:
* Coal * Treated or painted wood
* Garbage * Chemical Chimney cleaners
* Cardboard * Colored paper
* Solvents * Any synthetic fuel or logs
The burning of any of these materials can result in the
release of toxic fumes. Never use gasoline, gasoline-type
lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar
liquids to start or "freshen-up" the fire. Always keep such
liquids away from the heater at all times.
Important
Never build or allow the fire to rest directly on the glass.
The logs should always be spaced at least one inch from
the glass to allow for proper air flow within the stove.
Controls on The Jøtul F 500
A single air control lever controls the burn time and heat
output of the stove. This primary air control lever is located
on the front of the stove directly above the ashlip. The
primary air lever controls the amount of air that enters
the stove for combustion.
When first starting or reviving the fire: The primary
control lever should be at the far right position, which
allows the maximum amount of air into the stove.
The more air entering the stove, the hotter the fire, the
shorter the burn time. Moving the lever to the left reduces
the air-flow into the stove which prolongs the fire at a
lower heat output. See figure 11, page 15.

Breaking in Your New Stove

Your new Jøtul F 500 is constructed of cast iron and stove
furnace cement. This type of construction requires the
stove to be "broken-in" gradually so that heat expansion
does not occur too quickly and cause damage.
Complete the following steps for the proper break-in
procedure for the Jøtul F 500:
To monitor the stove's temperature, Jøtul recommends the
use of a magnetic stove-top thermometer, placed directly
on the corner of the stove's top plate.
