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.
The Nordic Plus range, with ventilation, comprises the following models:
Nordic Plus 67/60
Nordic Plus 77/60
Nordic Plus 77 DF
Nordic Plus 16/9
Nordic Plus 16/9 DF
Nordic Plus 58/54
Nordic Plus 56/75

Technical characteristics and compliance
Combining ecology and economy, Jidé has created the Nordic plus range in which the primary
air arrives under the grate to foster fire-lighting in the fireplace (important to start the fire in
an appropriate way and to reach faster high temperatures). After 10 to 15 minutes, the grate
must be closed, which will allow preheated secondary and tertiary air to come in.
The preheated secondary air creates post-combustion by re-burning 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 without primary air.
Ecological solution: cleaner emissions, less dust and CO.
Economic: greatly reduced wood consumption.

USER NOTICE
Starting a fire
Before lighting, remove ashes by means of the pull knob (to give off the grid by leaving 2 to
3 cm of ashes in the content of the stove).
The ashtray must be emptied regularly to allow the passage of the air for combustion.
Do not exceed the maximum loading authorized (see page 15).
IMPORTANT actions before starting your fire:
1For the correct use of the appliance, the door must be opened slightly and the grid
must be opened too (position forward) for 15 minutes - the time necessary to reach a
sufficient temperature in the fireplace.
2When the window is hot, please close the door. Combustion air inlet is regulated by the
automatic thermostat to obtain reduced wood consumption with respect to the heat
recovered. When the fireplace is hot, fans start automatically. Ashtray can never be
opened or removed when the device is working.
We advise you to set thermostat on 9 to start the fire, and on 3 or 4 when normal use.

button to melt. Each damage ensued by no-respect of these requirements cannot be
covered by the guarantee. Ashtray must be emptied each working day of the device.
- The fireplace is designed to be used with the door closed, after starting the fire.
- We recommend using firelighter blocks that stimulate faster and cleaner combustion of
the wood. Do not use inflammable liquid products.

Combustion
Combustion air
Combustion air is settled by an automatic thermostat, which regulate the working speed of
your fireplace, after started.
Thanks to the temperature sensor (on the right side of the device), the thermostat
automatically settle the coming of air, by opening of closing the air inlet. The thermostat is
not influenced by the room temperature. It only react to the one of the fireplace (which will
depends on the speed of the fans). It is therefore normal that if the temperature of the
fireplace is high, the valve will be closed whatever the control switch and the temperature of
the room are.
To keep this control of your fireplace, it is important to close perfectly the ashtray.
Thermostat is a security and you have to make sure not to provoke any additional air inlet
by letting the ashtray open, which would lead to an overheating causing disused of the
temperature sensor and loss of the guarantee.
Convection air
Originally, your appliance operates with ventilation controlled by a speed controller.
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.
Ashtray
To remove ashes, you have to make a back and forth move, forward to backward with the
pull knob of the grid, when the fire is off.
It is compulsory to empty the ashtray regularly to allow the combustion air flow.

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 recommandations
-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 (speed of the fan too low). 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 and the ashtray must be closed.
-To ensure an optimal use of the stove, the ashtray must be empty every day of using of
this one.
-NEVER use flammable liquid products 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 18 to 24 months and well ventilated, still contains 15 % water.
Damp wood is more difficult to consume, presents a lower calorific power and pollutes the
environment.
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 %

Maximum loading of the fireplace per hour:
Nordic Plus 67/60 ................................................ 2,8 kg (maximum) of dry wood per hour
Nordic Plus 77/60 ................................................3,2 kg (maximum) of dry wood per hour
Nordic Plus 77 DF................................................. 2,9kg (maximum) of dry wood per hour
Nordic Plus 16/9 .................................................. 3,6 kg (maximum) of dry wood per hour
Nordic Plus 16/9 DF ............................................. 3,2 kg (maximum) of dry wood per hour
Nordic Plus 58/54 ................................................2,4 kg (maximum) of dry wood per hour
Nordic Plus 56/75 ................................................2,6 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;
Deterioration of the grid;
Bleaching of the glass;
Degradation of the vermiculite;
Accentuated noise of the ventilator;
Damages on the automatic thermostat and airstat;
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 (left, right, and above the fireplace) in order to
accommodate expansion. There must be no masonry against the fireplace.
Ventilation around the fireplace
It is necessary 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 15 cm from inflammable materials and 15 cm from non-
inflammable materials.
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. We also advise you to make the
appliance firmer with a wall in order to increase the stability of the fireplace.
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.

17
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.
