gasket and cement and clean the area with a wire
brush. Apply a small bead of cement and push in the
new gasket. After closing and latching the doors wipe
clean any excessive cement that has come from

The Firelight CB is designed to burn cleanly and efficiently
when used according to the guidelines expressed in these
operating instructions. However, to maintain the proper
performance, a yearly chimney inspection and cleaning is
necessary. Failure to keep the chimney system free of
creosote and build up could result in a serious chimney
fire.
ACCESSORIES:
Many accessories have been manufactured for use with
the Jøtul Firelight CB. ONLY USE ACCESSORIES
THAT ARE SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR THE
JØTUL FIRELIGHT CB.
Firescreen (part # 350169)
The Firelight CB has been approved for use as an open
fireplace, with front doors open. This feature is especially
nice when the ambience of a fire is desired. Some care
should be taken when operating the stove as a fireplace.
· Always have the firescreen in place, attached to the
stove front.
· Never over load the stove: For the best appearance
burn in the traditional three log configuration.
· Reminder, when burning the stove with the screen in
place, you are sacrificing efficiency for aesthetics,
and you will be consuming wood at a much faster
rate.
WARNING: OPERATE YOUR JØTUL FIRELIGHT WITH
THE FRONT DOORS FULLY OPEN AND THE
FIRESCREEN IN PLACE OR FULLY CLOSED. PARTIALLY
OPENED DOORS MAY RESULT IN OVERFIRING. ALSO,
IF DOORS ARE LEFT PARTLY OPEN, GAS AND FLAME
MAY BE DRAWN OUT OF THE STOVE OPENING,
CREATING RISKS FROM BOTH FIRE AND SMOKE.

Outside Air Kit (part #154333)
In certain installations it may be necessary to provide
outside air to your Firelight CB wood stove. Guidelines to
determine the need for additional combustion air may not
be adequate for every situation. If in doubt, it is advisable
to provide additional air.
The Outside Air Kit includes an adapter to mount onto
the stove that will accept the fresh air pipe. Installation
will require some additional materials:
a. the appropriate length of metallic pipe for a
conduit of the outside air (4 diameter).
b. a rain/weather resistant cap for the outside of
the house.
c. a rodent screen- that is no larger than 1/4
mesh
Outside air may be required if:
1. The Firelight CB does not draw steadily,
smoke rollout occurs, fuel burns poorly, or back-
drafts occur whether or not there is combustion
present.
2. Existing fuel-fired equipment in the house,
such as fireplaces or other heating appliances,
smell, do not operate properly, suffer smoke roll-
out when opened, or back-draft whether or not
there is combustion present.
3. Opening a window slightly on a calm (wind
less) day alleviates any of the above symptoms.
4. The house is equipped with a well-sealed
vapor barrier and tight fitting windows and/or
has any powered devices that exhaust house air.
5. There is excessive condensation on the
windows in the winter.
6. A ventilation system is installed in the house.
If these or other indications suggest that infiltration air is
inadequate, additional combustion air should be provided
from the outdoors. Outside combustion air can be pro-
vided to the appliance by the following means:
1. Direct connection: the Firelight CB has been
tested and listed for use with an outside air kit
This outside air kit is connected directly to the
stove. Be sure to follow the instructions provided
with the kit.
