Operation

Familiarize yourself with the controls of the GF100 Nordic QT. Make sure that anyone else using the appli- ance is also familiar with the controls and operation procedures. Always follow the Lighting Instructions on the inside back cover of this manual and also located on the Rating Plate attached to the burner assembly.

1.Once the pilot is lit, burner operation is controlled by the rocker switch located at the left rear corner of the stove. Use the T-STAT position for the optional thermo- static or remote control functions.

2.During the first few fires, you may notice odor and/or smoke from the stove. This is normal and results from burn-off of manufacturing residue and curing of materials. You may find it helpful to provide addi- tional ventilation and fresh air to alleviate this condi- tion.

3.Condensation may occur on the glass upon each lighting of the appliance. This “fog” will disappear as the appliance heats up.

4.Keep the controls and the area under the appliance free of debris, vacuum this area frequently. Always keep the appliance area clear and free from combus- tible materials, gasoline and other flammable liquids.

If a vacuum is used during any service on the stove, ALWAYS be sure the stove is cold and there are NO hot embers or sparks.

5. Remember, this appliance has a continuous burning pilot flame. Exercise caution when using products having combustible vapors. Always shut-off gas supply while servicing the stove.

6.CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE WITH THE GLASS REMOVED CRACKED OR BROKEN. Replace- ment of the glass should be done by a licensed or qualified service person. Use only replacement glass provided by your authorized Jøtul dealer. Never use any substitute materials.

WARNING: OBSERVE CAUTION WITH THE GLASS. THE GLASS PANEL MAY SHATTER UNEXPECTEDLY IF STRUCK WITH AN OBJECT. ALWAYS HANDLE THE GLASS PANEL WITH CARE. WHEN SERVICING THE STOVE ALWAYS PULL THE GLASS ASSEMBLY STRAIGHT UP FOR RE- MOVAL.

7.Clean the glass only when necessary. Wipe surface with a clean, damp soft cloth. Follow with a dry, soft towel as desired. Take care not to scratch the glass surface.

WARNING: DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS ON THE GLASS. NEVER CLEAN THE GLASS WHEN IT IS HOT.

Maintenance

The Nordic QT Direct Vent gas stove and its venting system should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualified service technician.

IMPORTANT:

ALWAYS TURN OFF THE GAS SUPPLY TO THE STOVE BEFORE ANY SERVICE WORK IS PERFORMED ON THE STOVE.

Firebox Cleaning: The firebox should be vacuumed annually to remove any surface build up. Be sure to vacuum or wipe off the pilot assembly and burner orifice and burner tube. Handle the logset carefully as it is very fragile.

Glass Cleaning: Use warm water and a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or strong detergents on the glass. Be sure the glass is cool before cleaning.

Gasket Inspection: Inspect the glass gasket at least annually. Examine the ribbon gasket for signs of deterio- ration and make sure the gasket has a positive seal. Replace the gasket if it appears worn or damaged. Refer to the replacement parts list on page 24.
