Jotul GF 300 BV Allagash Operating Instructions

To ignite the Jotul GF 300 BV Allagash Stove, ensure the main gas supply is turned on. Set the thermostat to the desired temperature. Press and hold the ignition button until you hear a clicking sound and the pilot light ignites. Release the button once the pilot is lit.
If the pilot light keeps going out, check for drafts that could be affecting the flame. Ensure that the thermocouple is clean and properly aligned with the pilot flame. If the problem persists, it may need professional servicing.
Clean the glass on the stove at least once a month using a soft cloth and a non-abrasive glass cleaner. Ensure the stove is cool before cleaning to avoid cracking the glass.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the glass, checking gas connections for leaks, inspecting the burner for debris, and ensuring the venting system is unobstructed. An annual professional inspection is also recommended.
If the stove won't turn on, check that the gas supply is open and that there is no air trapped in the gas line. Verify that the thermostat is set correctly. If these steps don't help, inspect the igniter and pilot light system for issues.
To adjust the flame height, locate the adjustment knob on the gas valve. Turn it clockwise to decrease the flame height or counterclockwise to increase it. Make sure adjustments are made gradually to avoid extinguishing the flame.
A sulfur-like smell may indicate a gas leak. Immediately turn off the gas supply and ventilate the area. Do not attempt to ignite the stove. Contact a professional technician to inspect and repair the stove.
While some installation steps can be performed by homeowners, it is highly recommended to have the stove professionally installed to ensure safety and compliance with local building codes.
To improve efficiency, ensure that the stove is properly maintained and regularly cleaned. Use a programmable thermostat to minimize fuel consumption, and ensure that the room is well-insulated to retain heat.
For off-season storage, clean the stove thoroughly and ensure all parts are dry. Turn off the gas supply and cover the stove to protect it from dust and moisture. It's also advisable to have a professional inspection before next use.
