Operation

Familiarize yourself with the controls of the GF 300 BV. Make sure that anyone else using the appliance 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 corner of the rear shroud. See fig. 30.

ON / OFF - use for manual control of the burner. T-STAT- use for optional thermostatic or remote control operation. The burner will be controlled by those accessories.

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 additional ventilation and fresh air to alleviate this condition.

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.

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. Replacement 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.

BLOCKED FLUE SWITCH

NOTE: This appliance is equipped with a Spill Switch which will disable the burner in the event that the vent system becomes blocked. Located on the side of the Draft Hood, at the back of the stove, the switch has a reset button that, when pressed, will re-enable burner function. See Fig. 27.

If the Spill Switch repeatedly shuts the burner

off, turn off the gas supply and call your dealer or service technician. The Spill Switch will continue to shut off the burner until the vent problem has been corrected. Not all vent problems can be corrected as B-Vent appliances are affected by atmospheric conditions and house pressurization.
