3.6 Ash removal
Jøtul F 370 has an ash pan which makes it easy to remove the ashes.
1. Only remove ashes when the fireplace is cold.
2. Push/pull the handle for the ash grate/ignition vent out and in
several times so that the ashes fall down into the ash pan. Use
something like a glove to grab the handle on the ash pan.
3. Make sure that the ash pan doesn’t fill up so high that it keeps
ash from coming through the grate into the pan.
4. Make sure the door to the ash pan is securely shut when the
stove is in use.
For the rest, see description of how to handle ash in the Manual
on general use and maintenance in Point «6.1 Fire preventive
measures».
3.7 Use (fig. 26)
• Open the air vent and the ignition vent by pulling it out all
the way (fig. 26). If necessary, keep the door slightly open.
(Use a glove, for example, as the handle can become hot.)
• Place two medium sized logs in/out on each side of the base.
N.B. In order to avoid sooting on the glass, it is important that
the log is not placed adjacent to the glass on the product.
• Crumple some newspaper (or birch bark) between these and
add some kindling wood in a criss-cross pattern on top and
light the newspaper.
• Gradually increase the size of the fire, but the wood should
not be stacked higher than the horizontal holes on the back
burn plate. See fig. 26H.
• Close the ignition vent (fig. 26 B) when the firewood has
ignited and the fire is burning well.
• Check that the afterburning (secondary combustion) starts. This
is best indicated by yellow, flickering flames under the baffle.
• Then regulate the rate of combustion to the desired level of
heating by adjusting the air vent (fig. 26A).
See the general manual for information regarding use of the
stove.
