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.

Air Inlet Restrictor Plate Installation
• NEVER modify any
venting component or
use a damaged venting
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.

22 of this manual or on the stove’s rating plate.
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,
Canadian methods vary depending on local code.

CAN-B149.
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
maintenance. See Figure 17.

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

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.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
FOR YOUR SAFETY, READ BEFORE LIGHTING.
WARNING:
IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY, A FIRE OR EXPLOSION MAY
RESULT CAUSING PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY, OR LOSS OF LIFE.
• If your gas supplier cannot be reached, call the
fire department.
A. This appliance has a pilot which must be lit
by hand. When lighting the pilot, follow
these instructions exactly.
C. Use only your hand to push in or turn the gas
control knob. Never use tools. If the knob will
not push in or turn by hand, do not try to repair
it. Call a qualified technician. Force or

B. BEFORE LIGHTING, smell all around the
appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell

heavier than air and will settle to the floor.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:

• Do not touch any electrical switches.
• Do not use any phone in your building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a
