INTRODUCTION
General
To obtain optimum operation of your fireplace in complete safety, we recommend having it
installed by a specialist who will do the work professionally.
The responsibility of Jidé relates to the supply of the appliance. The installation is the
responsibility of the owner who must have it done according to the requirements of this
notice, and in accordance with the applicable regulations and standards of the different
countries governing the installation, insulation and connection of closed wood-burning
fireplaces, in new and old constructions, as well as smoke flues. The appliance may not be
modified as it could present a real danger and will invalidate the warranty.
A list of our dealers-installers is available on our site www.jide.be/en.
Before using your fireplace for the first time and in order to guarantee its good usage and
operation over time, we suggest you carefully read these instructions for use in order to
familiarise yourself with its various functions and characteristics.
Before starting your first fire, please ensure that no material required for the installation is
in the fireplace.
The paint has not been cured and will consequently harden when used for the first time,
causing the release of smoke and odours. We advise you to make a very strong fire and then
ventilate the room well.
Each Corner comprises the following models:
CORNER 77 Left
CORNER 77 Right

Technical characteristics and compliance
Combining ecology and economy, Jidé has created the Corner range which has an external
combustion air inlet (sealed appliance).
The primary air arrives door the stainless steel canals to foster fire-lighting in the fireplace.
The preheated secondary air creates post-combustion by reburning the gases, and this
greatly improves the efficiency.
The preheated tertiary air has a “turbo” effect, sweeping the glass from top to bottom to
keep it clean and creates a sufficient supply to feed the fire with a minimum of primary air.
Ecological solution: cleaner emissions, less dust and CO
Economic: greatly reduced wood consumption.

USER NOTICE
Starting a fire
Before lighting, remove ashes especially on the stainless steel canals.
Do not exceed the maximum loading authorized (see page 11).
IMPORTANT actions before starting your fire:
1For the correct use of the appliance, the door (the 2 doors for a double sided) must be
opened slightly, then open the external air inlet to the maximum for 10 to 15 minutes -
the time necessary to reach a sufficient temperature in the fireplace.
2When the window is hot, please close the door (the 2 doors for a double sided). You can
now position the control lever to the centre to obtain reduced wood consumption with
respect to the heat recovered. Your fireplace is now in its optimum configuration: post-
combustion and maximum efficiency. You can regulate the air intake to the right
according to the desired heat.
CAUTION
-For good performance do not remove completely the ashes of the stove.
-When the fire needs a reloading, set the speed controller on minimum. Open slightly
the door in order to avoid reverse flow of smokes in the room. After loading, do not
forget to position ventilation on the desired position.
-If you have a device with ventilation, never make it work without ventilation!
In case of momentary power failure, reduce the load and keep a medium heat.
Devices without ventilation MUST be decompressed in opening the two hot air outlet
and fixing 2 ducts of at least 1 meter (on the right and left side of the fireplace).
-The fireplace is designed to a door-closed use, after starting the fire. Reload when only
glowing embers remain.
-We advise you to use fire starter cube which facilitate a quicker and cleaner wood
combustion.
-Do not use inflammable liquid products.

Combustion
Combustion air
This sealed appliance is equipped with a system with external air intake for the combustion
air (diameter 100).
The combustion air intake is adjusted with the control lever located on the right of the
appliance:
-Positioned to the left, you fully open the combustion air intake, i.e. the primary air intake
under the grate and the secondary air through the holes in the back of the fireplace.
-Positioned in the centre, you close the primary air intake. The fireplace simply operates
on secondary combustion air.
-Positioned to the right, you almost fully close the combustion air intake.
Convection air
Originally, your appliance operates with ventilation controlled by a speed controller and an
airstat. Depending on the chosen position, the speed controller determines the forced hot
air flow outside your fireplace (maximum power heating is reached with ventilation on the
highest level).
The airstat (on the left side of the device) is an accessory which turns on and off ventilation
according to temperature sensor. This ventilation turns on once the fireplace has reached a
certain temperature. Ventilation must always turn when the fireplace is hot, otherwise the
fans will be degraded. Hot air outlet will allow a hot convection air distribution in the room
of the fireplace or in another room. If you have this type of installation, it is essential to take
advice from your approved installer.
There is an option "strop air" which fosters the hot convection air distribution through other
holes, by filling the convection air outlet on the top of the fireplace.
Devices without ventilation MUST have 2 hot air outlets with a finishing grid (not included).
These 2 hot air outlets must be plugged to at least 1 meter flexible diameter 125 mm.

The chimney
The smoke produced by the wood combustion is removed through the chimney flue.
The draft of the chimney reduces the pressure in the fireplace, which removes a part of the
smoke and supplies the combustion.
- A good draft will result in a high temperature difference between the inside of the
chimney and the outside of the house.
- Too great a draft will not enable a high enough temperature to be reached for good
combustion.
- Too small a draft will lead to a risk of reverse flow, fouling of the window and sooting of
the chimney.
An approved chimney sweep should be consulted for any questions regarding the good use
and maintenance of the chimney.
General recommendations
- It is not recommended to greatly reduce the operation of the fireplace to such a point
that there are no flames, a sign of poor combustion. The unburned gases are converted
into soot.
- In the same way, if overloaded your fireplace will not provide any additional comfort
and will lead to a reduction of efficiency, a pointless increase in the consumption of
wood, a loss of heat and abnormal wear of your fireplace.
- Certain weather conditions (strong wind, fog) may affect the combustion and draft of
the chimney and the air intake will have to be adjusted.
- When removing the ash, pay attention to the persistent presence of embers.
- In the event of a chimney fire, the door must be closed.
- NEVER use flammable liquid products (ex: methanol) to light the fire or reactivate the
fire!

The wood –Choice and usage
The Jidé fireplaces are designed to burn hard wood logs only.
The quality of wood is important.
“Green” wood contains a lot of water (approx. 50 %).
“Dry” wood, kept outside for 24 months covered and well ventilated, still contains 15 %
water.
Damp wood is more difficult to consume, presents a lower calorific power and pollutes the
environment.
Damp smoke has disadvantages, for example a reduced draft and the formation of tar in the
flue and on cold surfaces (the window for example).
Split wood presents better combustion and will improve the operation of your fireplace.
The calorific value of wood depends on its type, and the volume of wood required for the
same quantity of heat differs according to this choice. Thus, the “hard” wood varieties such
as beech, oak, whose density is high, will require a lower quantity than other low density
species:
Density
Hornbeam ........................................................................................ 400 –500 kg per m³
Oak................................................................................................... 380 –480 kg per m³
Beech ............................................................................................... 350 –450 kg per m³
Birch................................................................................................. 300 –400 kg per m³
Poplar .............................................................................................. 250 –350 kg per m³
Ideal rate : 15 %

Loading of the fireplace with wood:
CORNER 77 .............................................................3 kg (maximum) of dry wood per hour
CAUTION
**************************************************************************
The overloading of wood of your stove may have some consequences and the damage
hereafter will obviously not be covered by the warranty:
Deformation of the baffle;
Bleaching of the glass;
Degradation of the vermiculite;
Accentuated noise of the ventilator;
Excessive dilation of the door being able to involve a deformation of this one.
***************************************************************************
Moreover, we recommend you:
Not to burn resinous or treated wood (e.g. painted wood) or any other material containing
toxic products harmful to the environment, or which are aggressive for the components of
the fireplace.
To only burn heating wood, your fireplace is not designed to be used as an incinerator.
Not to overcome the calorific value of wood. Pay attention to the calorific value of
compressed logs. Half a compressed log at a time.

INSTALLATION NOTICE
Preparation –Arrangements
It is important to check the fireplace upon receipt and to ensure the absence of any damage
during transport.
Dimensions of the recess
The recess, i.e. the volume around the fireplace, has to contain the appliance while providing
an additional space of at least 5 mm (on the left and right sides, and above the fireplace) in
order to accommodate expansion. There must be no masonry against the fireplace.
Ventilation around the fireplace
It is advised to ventilate the recess with an air inlet in the base and air outlet at the top in
order to reduce the temperature of the walls and to recover it in your home.
Insulation of the fireplace
The materials used must be non-inflammable. The temperature of smoke to the chimney
being able to reach 300° to 400°, this one could cause a combustion of not isolated
combustible materials. Provide high-temperature insulation around the fireplace to protect
certain materials. In this case we advise protecting the back, sides and top of the appliance.
If no insulation has been provided, it is recommended keeping a distance of 35 cm from
inflammable materials and 15 cm from non-inflammable materials and to ventilate the
recess.
Your installer can advise you regarding the protection to be provided. Still with regard to
protection, your installer can also provide a floor plate in front of the insert in order to guard
against the ejection of embers.
Fireplace base
We recommend placing the appliance on a solid flat surface with sufficient strength to
support the weight of the fireplace and the chimney flue.
Radiation from the fireplace
The fireplace emits heat by radiation through the window and by air convection. It is thus
essential to provide non-inflammable materials in the distribution zone.

Sealed connection
To ensure a sealed connection, appropriate to the desired installation and the good
operation of your fireplace, please consult your installer who will give you with the necessary
information.
The section of the flue must be similar if possible to the one of the stove. If the section of the
flue is much more important than the one of the stove, it is advised to tube the chimney on
all its height and to insure the sealing of connection. It is necessary to be vigilant on the state
of the existing flue and more still on connection of the flexible device to the existing flue. A
bad connection can be the cause of disasters. Do use only pipes stainless appropriate to this
use.
It is mandatory to put from the device at least 1 m hard or flexible pipe, in steel or in stainless
steel, to connect the smoke exit.
The chimney must have a normal pulling i.e. that with its power maximum, the depression
will have to range between 12 and 20 Pa.

Fitting
Fitting of the finishing frame (option)
The fireplace must be aligned with respects to the plane of the masonry to enable the
correct attachment of the frame.
The original frame is a three-sided frame. A four-sided frame is available as an option.
The finishing frame clips onto the appliance with spring supports.
1Place the frame on the appliance, with the back of the

MAINTENANCE OF THE FIREPLACE
Cleaning –Chimney sweeping
Maintenance
Before working on the fireplace, ensure that it is cold.
Clean (with as ash vacuum cleaner) the particles and residues which remain in the fireplace and on the
stainless steel canals.
The metal parts can be wiped with a dry cloth.
The inside panels for protection (cast iron or vermiculite) can be split without preventing a normal
functioning of the stove. Look after that is does not miss a piece. In this case replace the damaged parts.
Your dealer can give you an aerosol for touching up the paintwork if required.
Use original spare parts for any repairs.
Cleaning the window
We recommend one of the following two methods for cleaning the window of your fireplace:
1. If dry, use absorbent paper and / or 000 steel wool:
With good burning (dry wood and good fire management), the absorbent paper makes it possible
to remove most dirt from the glass. Remove the remaining dirt by using steel wool "000". (Thicker
steel wool can damage the glass (scratches)). Avoid rubbing the edge of the screen print (black part
printed on the glass) with steel wool, this can permanently damage the screen print. You can use
this method on cold glass or on warm glass (with a glove).
2. With a damp cloth and wood ash:
The window can be easily cleaned with a cloth or slightly damp absorbent paper that has been
previously soaked in the cold (white) ash of your fireplace. Rub the dirty parts and wipe them with a
clean damp cloth.
We prohibit the use of a liquid cleaning product. The dripping of this product on the lower black screen of
the glass can leave traces, which unfortunately will be final, they can also damage the paint of the device. If
you have to use a liquid detergent due to too much contamination, two precautions are essential:
• Use a product without corrosive soda.
• Spray the product on a cloth and not on the glass to prevent spillage.
!!! If you do not follow these precautions, the glass may break !!!
Indeed, a liquid product can carry the dust with it to the compensation seal that is located between the
glass and the structure of the door. This dust penetrates the seal and loses its elasticity and forms a
hardened crust, which causes stress on the glass and leads to cracks.
Door
Check the joint of the door.
Use the annual maintenance to check the seal of your fireplace by wedging a strip
of paper on the joint before closing the door.
Twice a year, clean the hinge of the door, coat with a releasing oil in order to
prevent moisture penetrating and from blocking the axis of this one.

CORNER (EN) June 2018
20
Cleaning the fans
It is necessary to supervise the state of cleanliness of the ventilators.
The accumulation of dust causes an unbalance of the turbine, which makes force the engine
which can burn or make noise.
Before any work, please disconnect the electricity supply.
The fan can be dusted if it is fouled. Do not apply pressure to the fan blades, at the risk of
bending them and thus creating an imbalance that will lead to noise and vibrations.
These operations can be repeated during the year depending on the fouling.
Grease the axis (thin oil).
Chimney-sweeping
With a concern for safety and observance of the applicable legislation, you must have the
chimney swept at least once a year, in order to limit the tar deposits in the chimney.
It is an opportunity to check the condition of the flue and connection of the chimney. It is
recommended first carefully removing the baffles then repositioning them in their initial
position.
Stainless steel baffle Vermiculite baffle
Vacuum three or four times per year the residues above the baffle.
