Safety Information  
During normal operation, the Firelight gas stove will  
reach high surface temperatures. Therefore:  
The installation must conform to local codes. Your  
local Jøtul dealer can assist you in determining  
what is required in your area for a safe and legal  
installation. Some areas require a permit to  
install a gas burning appliance. Always consult  
your local building inspector, or authority having  
jurisdiction, to determine what regulations apply  
in your area.  
Due to the high operating temperatures, this  
appliance should be located out of traffic areas  
and away from furniture and draperies.  
Children and adults should be alerted to the  
hazards of high surface temperatures and should  
stay away to avoid burns and/or clothing ignition.  
Young children should be supervised while they  
REMEMBER: Your local officials have final author-  
ity in determining if a proposed installation is  
acceptable. Any requirement that is requested by  
the local authority having jurisdiction, that is not  
specifically addressed in THIS manual, defaults to  
local code. In the absence of local codes, the  
installation requirements must comply with the  
current National codes. In the U.S., these require-  
ments are established in the National Fuel Code,  
ANSI Z223.1.(NFPA 54). In Canada, the codes have  
been established in CAN/CGA B149 Fuel Installa-  
tion Code.

Installation  
Requirements  
Location  
Hearth Requirements  
In selecting the location, the aesthetic and func-  
tional use of the appliance are primary concerns.  
However, proper venting systems and access to the  
fuel supply are also important issues. Due to the  
high surface temperatures, you must also consider  
the proximity of traffic areas, furniture, draperies,  
etc.  
The Firelight gas stove CANNOT be installed directly  
on carpeting, vinyl, linoleum or Pergo®.  
If it is desired to install this appliance on any  
combustible material OTHER THAN WOOD, a floor  
pad must be installed that is either metal, wood or a  
listed hearth pad. This floor protection must extend  
the full width and depth of the appliance. It is not  
necessary to remove the carpeting, vinyl or linoleum  
from underneath the floor protection. See Fig. 1.  
This appliance may be located on or near  
conventional construction materials. HOWEVER,  
always maintain the proper clearances to combus-  
tibles, as this provides adequate ventilation air  
around the appliance.  
The following clearances and hearth require-  
ments are the minimum requirements when  
installing the Firelight gas stove near or on combus-  
tible surfaces. Always provide adequate access  
around the appliance for servicing and proper  
operation.  
24”  
(610 mm)  
A combustible surface is anything that can burn  
(i.e. sheet rock, wall paper, wood, fabrics etc.). These  
surfaces are not limited to those that are visible and  
also include materials that are behind non-combus-  
tibles.  
If you are not sure of the combustible nature of  
a material, consult your local fire officials. Remem-  
ber,Fire Resistant” materials are considered com-  
bustible: they are difficult to ignite, but will burn.  
Also, “fire-rated” sheet rock is considered combus-  
tible.

Vent Restriction  
Vent Requirements  
The GF 600 DV Firelight includes two rectangular  
Exhaust Restrictor plates and one square Air Inlet  
Restrictor Plate as shown in Figure 5. These are  
located in the parts bag. The plates are used to  
compensate for draft characteristics that would  
otherwise interfere with proper burner perfor-  
mance such as low heat output, weak flame  
picture, or inefficient combustion.  
There are three types of venting configurations  
approved for use with the Firelight gas stove:  
• Vertical Termination  
• Hearthmount Co-Linear (Vertical Termination)  
• Horizontal Termination  
The GF600 Firelight is approved for use with the  
vent systems listed below. Use parts of one manu-  
facturer only - DO NOT MIX VENT COMPONENTS  
FROM DIFFERENT MANUFACTURERS IN THE SAME  
SYSTEM.  
Simpson Dura-Vent GS  
• Amerivent Corporation  
• Security Vent Ltd.  
Exhaust Restrictor Plate Installation  
• Both Exhaust Restrictor Plates (#129642) MUST  
be installed in all Co-linear vent systems and any  
vertically terminated vent run exceeding 7 feet  
(210 cm) in length.  
• Selkirk Metalbestos  
1. Remove the Glass Panel and Log Set.  
Installation of any components not manufac-  
tured or approved by Jøtul or failure to meet all  
clearance requirements will void all warranties and  
could result in property damage or bodily injury.  
2. Using a 1/4” nut driver, remove the two sheet  
metal screws in the rear wall of the firebox  
ABOVE EACH exhaust outlet. See Figure 5.  
3. Install a restrictor plate over the upper half of  
each exhaust hole and secure the plate using the  
same screws that were just removed.  
The approved vent configurations described in  
this manual are derived from extensive testing  
under controlled laboratory conditions. Gas appli-  
ance performance can be negatively affected by  
variables present in the installation environment, i.e:  
atmospheric pressure, strong prevailing winds,  
adjacent structures and trees, snow accumulation,  
etc. These conditions should be taken into consider-  
ation by the installer and stove owner when plan-  
ning the vent system design.  
4. Reinstall logs and glass.

component.  
• The Air Inlet Restrictor (#129347) MUST be in-  
stalled with any Co-linear Vent system.  
1. Remove the Glass Panel and Log Set.  
2. Using a 1/4” nut driver, remove the two sheet  
metal screws (A) and Rear Log Shelf from the back  
of the firebox. See Figure 6.  
• The gas appliance and vent system must be  
vented directly to the outside of the building and  
never attached to a chimney serving a solid fuel  
or other gas appliance. Each direct vent gas  
appliance must have its own separate vent  
system. Common vent systems are prohibited.  
3. Using the right hand sheet metal screw, reinstall  
the Log Shelf with the restrictor plate between  
the Shelf and the Back Wall. The plate should  
cover the lower right air inlet.  
• If the venting system is disassembled for any  
reason, re-install according to the manufacturer’s  
installation instructions.  
4. Reinstall logs and glass.

Vertical Venting and Termination  
The GF 600 DV Firelight can be vertically vented  
through a roof or ceiling. Follow these guidelines  
ANY VENTING WITH A VERTICAL RISE MUST TERMI-  
NATE (END) WITHIN THE SHADED AREA.  
Restrictors required on:  
• All Co-linear (flex pipe)  
• All coaxial (rigid pipe) venting higher than 7  
feet.  
Steep roofs, nearby trees, or predominantly  
windy conditions, can promote poor draft or  
down draft conditions. In such cases, an increase to  
the height of the vent may improve performance.  
• Both restrictors must be used when restriction is  
required.  
• Always maintain the proper clearances to  
combustibles.  
If an offset or elbow is necessary in the vertical  
rise, the vent pipe must be supported every  
three feet to avoid excessive stress on the  
offsets. Use listed Wall Straps from any of the  
approved vent suppliers.  
35 Ft.  
(10.67 m)  
Whenever possible, use 45° elbows instead of  
90° elbows as they offer less restriction to the  
flow of flue gases and intake air.  
30 Ft.  
(9.14 m)  
A firestop is required at every floor penetration.  
The opening should be framed to 10" X 10"  
inside dimension. A listed wall thimble is  
required as a firestop.  
Any venting that is exposed above the first floor must  
be enclosed regardless of attic space or living space.  
Always maintain the required 1" clearance from all  
sides of the vertical vent system.  
25 Ft.  
(7.62 m)  
IT IS NECESSARY to add restriction to a vertical  
vent installation to compensate for excessive  
draft. See the Adding Draft Restriction section  
on page 8.  
20 Ft.

A minimum 11” X 11” square hole is required for  
the proper pipe clearance through a wall pen-  
etration. A 10” x 10” opening is suitable with use  
of Simpson Dura-Vent Wall Thimble #942.  
Figure 10. A vertical run in a horizontal termination  
must be at least 2 feet (61 cm).  
Any horizontal run of vent must be level or have  
a 1/4” rise for every foot of run toward the  
termination cap.

3. Brush or spray all joints and connections with the  
soapy water solution.  
4. If bubbles appear at any connection or seam or a  
gas odor is detected immediately turn gas control  
knob to the OFF position.  
The gas supply line connection is made to the  
valve just inside the left rear leg. The Gas supply line  
should be 3/8" or 1/2" diameter, or the appropriate  
size to provide sufficient gas pressure to the valve  
regardless of the input setting.  
5. Tighten or reconnect the leaking joint and retest  
for any gas leaks.  
The use of Flexible Gas Appliance Connectors is  
acceptable in many areas in the U.S., however,

It is important that the correct pressure is estab-  
lished at the time of the installation. Proper gas  
pressure provides a consistent flow of gas to the  
appliance and is instrumental in checking for gas  
leaks. The gas control valve on the stove is equipped  
with pressure test points for gauge connections. The  
gauge connections are located on the front of the  
valve under the On/Off/Pilot- knob. See Fig. 18.  
Gauge connections are identified by:  
All codes require a gas shutoff valve (gas cock)  
and union to be installed in the supply line and in  
the same room as the appliance for servicing and

High Altitude Adjustment  
When installing the GF 600 DV Firelight gas stove in  
high altitude situations (above 2500') it becomes  
necessary to compensate for the thinner air (less  
volume of oxygen per cubic foot). High altitudes  
affect the atmospheric pressure and heat value of  
gaseous fuels. Lower oxygen content in the air and  
lower gas viscosity require the use of a different  
orifice to achieve efficient, clean combustion at the  
burner tube.  
The appliance and its main gas valve must be  
disconnected from the gas supply piping system  
during any pressure testing on that system at test  
pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5kPa).  
The appliance must be isolated from the gas  
supply line by closing its individual manual gas  
shut-off valve (gas cock) during any pressure  
testing of the gas supply piping system that is  
equal to or exceeds pressures of 1/2 psig (3.5kPa).  
In the U.S.,  
THE DERATING KIT MUST BE INSTALLED BY AN  
AUTHORIZED SERVICE TECHNICIAN IN ACCOR-  
DANCE WITH THE MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUC-  
TIONS AND ALL CODES AND REQUIREMENTS OF  
THE AUTHORITY HAVING JURISDICTION. THE  
INFORMATION STICKER MUST BE FILLED OUT BY  
THE INSTALLER AND ADHERED TO THE APPLIANCE

Air Shutter Adjustment / Flame  
Appearance  
Derating Procedure  
To derate this unit, install the appropriate orifice per  
the High Altitude chart.  
The GF 600 DV FIRELIGHT gas stove is shipped from  
the factory equipped as a NATURAL GAS STOVE. If  
the stove is converted for propane, it will be neces-  
sary to adjust the air shutter on the burner tube to  
achieve the proper gas to air mixture. The proper air  
shutter settings are:  
1. Remove the two ¼” hex head screw that holds  
the burner tube/log support to the bottom of the  
stove.  
2. Remove the burner tube/log support to expose  
the main burner orifice.  
3. Remove the orifice and replace with the appropri-  
ate one from the high altitude kit.  
1/2” open for natural  
7/8” open for propane  
4. Be sure to attach the high altitude conversion  
sticker provided with the kit to the rating plate on  
the appliance.  
The air shutter can also help achieve the desired  
flame appearance. Generally, flame appearance is a  
matter of preference, however most people enjoy a  
warm yellowish flame.  
Air Shutter Too Open - the appliance will  
generate a flame that is blue and transparent, or an  
“anemic” flame.  
THIS STOVE HAS BEEN CONVERTED FOR USE AT  
AN ALTITUDE OF: ___________  
Air Shutter Too Closed - the appliance will  
generate very long yellow flames resulting in soot.  
Sooting produces black deposits on the logs, on the  
inside walls of the appliance, and potentially on the  
exterior termination cap.  
Orifice Size: __________ Manifold Press. _____  
Input Btu/Hr. _________ Fuel Type __________  
Date of Conversion ___________  
Sooting is caused by incomplete combustion in  
the flames and lack of combustion air entering the  
air shutter opening.  
Figure 19. High Altitude Conversion Label. This sticker  
is included in all high altitude kits and must be  
applied to the stove when converted for high altitude.  
To adjust the air shutter, remove the burner  
tube and using a phillips head screwdriver loosen  
the screw at the air shutter and adjust accordingly.  
Be sure to retighten the screw that holds the air  
shutter setting. Reassemble the stove and close the  
door. Allow stove to burn 30 minutes on the HIGH  
setting, observing the flame continuously. If the flame  
appears weak, slow, or sooty, repeat the process  
described above until the flame is as desired.

Optional Controls  
System Check  
1. PURGING THE GAS LINE: When lighting the  
appliance for the first time, it will take a few  
moments to clear the gas line of air. Once this  
purge is complete, the appliance will operate as  
described in the lighting instructions. See the  
inside back cover of this manual or the stove  
Rating Plate attached the bottom of the stove. All  
subsequent lightings of the stove will not require  
purging the gas line unless the supply line is shut off.  
Wall Thermostat  
Use only a 750 millivolt DC two-wire circuit ther-  
mostat, placed in the same room as the heater,  
typically 5’ off the floor. Avoid drafty areas or any  
area that may affect the accuracy of the thermo-  
stat.  
The thermostat should be connected to the  
stove using a minimum of 16 gauge wire with a  
maximum length of 35 feet of wire.  
2. PILOT FLAME: The pilot flame should be steady -  
not lifting or floating. The flame should be blue in  
color around the pilot hood, with traces of yellow  
toward the outer edges.  
Connect the two thermostat wire leads to the  
two lower terminals on the terminal block located  
ont the valve. Do not overtighten the connections.  
IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO DISCONNECT ANY OTHER  
WIRES. See Fig. 22.  
The pilot flame should engulf the top 3/8” of the  
thermopile (to generate millivolt current) and the  
top 1/8” of the thermocouple. The pilot flame  
should project out of the pilot hood 1” at all three  
ports. See Figs. 23.  
At the thermostat, the two wires should be  
connected to the two connection screws on the  
thermostat base plate per the manufacturer’s  
instructions.  
For thermostatic operation, the On/Off/T-Stat  
switch must be in the T-stat position, and the pilot  
light must be on.

by the rocker switch located at the left rear  
corner of the stove. Use the T-STAT position for  
the optional thermostatic 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 additional ventilation and fresh air to  
alleviate this condition.

1. Locate the switch bracket on the back of the  
stove, below the burner control switch.  
3. Condensation may develop on the glass when the  
burner is first lit. This “fog” will disappear as the  
heater warms up.  
2. Remove the four 1/4” hex head screws that  
secure the switch bracket to the left rear  
shroud. Carefully pull the switch bracket away  
from the stove.  
4. Keep the controls and the area under the appli-  
ance free of debris, vacuum this area frequently.  
Always keep the appliance area clear and free  
from combustible materials, gasoline and other  
flammable liquids.  
3. Use pliers to remove the blank switch cover from  
the bracket.  
4. Insert the new HI/OFF/LO blower switch into the  
bracket. Feed the wires up from the blower  
within the left rear shroud of the unit.  
If a vacuum is used during any service on the  
stove, ALWAYS be sure the stove is cold.  
5. 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.  
5. Connect the insulated wires (from the blower) to  
the three leads on the HI/OFF/LO switch. BLACK  
wire to the HI position, WHITE wire to the OFF  
position, and the RED wire to the LO position.  
6. CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE  
WITH THE GLASS REMOVED CRACKED OR BRO-  
KEN. 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.  
6. Reattach the switch bracket to the rear shroud.  
NOTE:  
THE BLOWER WILL ONLY OPERATE WHEN  
THE SWITCH IS IN THE HI OR LOW POSI-  
TION AND ONLY WHEN THE SENSOR  
(SNAPSTAT) HAS BEEN HEATED BY THE  
STOVE AFTER THE BURNER HAS BEEN  
OPERATING APPROXIMATELY 10-20 MIN-  
UTES.  
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 REMOVAL.  
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.
