CAUTIONS : READ THIS FIRST
Your Cannon wood heater has been designed and tested to rigorous Australian Standards, and will
provide you with beautiful, environmentally sustainable home heating for many years. However,
we must remember that these appliances are very powerful, and need to be both installed correctly
and operated with care.
WHAT TO BURN
Burn only dry, seasoned hardwood in these heaters. Do not use ammable liquids or spray
aerosols to help start the re, or at any time the re is operating.
Do not burn the following:
• Treated timbers (eg treated pine or painted fence palings) as these will emit poisonous
chemicals.
• Household refuse.
• Coal or briquettes.
• Combustible building materials as these materials either emit hazardous chemicals or will
cause a dangerous build up of soot and creosote in your ue, which may cause a dangerous
ue re.
WHAT TO KEEP AWAY FROM THE HEATER
WARNING: Do not store or use petrol, kerosene, methylated spirits or other ammable liquids in
the vicinity of this appliance (ie within installation clearances).
WARNING: Keep all combustible material, including curtains, furniture, wood, paper and matches,
away from the heater. Observe the clearances in the installation section.
Children and adults should be alerted to the hazard of high surface temperatures and should take
care to avoid burns or clothing ignition.
Supervise young children to ensure they do not play with the appliance. Keep children away from
the heater when it is alight. For young children, a secondary guard or re screen is recommended.

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience

concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
ENSURE THE HEATER IS IN PROPER WORKING CONDITION
Do not use this heater with a cracked glass. The glass should be replaced only with genuine
ceramic glass from the manufacturer.
This appliance or ue must not be modied in any way without written permission from the
manufacturer. Failure to observe this requirement will void the warranty, and may void household
insurance.
If you have had a ue re, have the heater and ue inspected before it is used again.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
CAUTIONS
Model No – CAWDFS12
If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or a
suitably qualied person in order to avoid electrical hazard.
INSTALL STRICTLY ACCORDING TO THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This heater and ue system must be installed in accordance with the latest version of AS/NZS 2918,
relevant building and local government regulations, using the clearances and requirements tabled in
these instructions.
Your wood heater must be installed by a qualied person whose work conforms with local council
regulations, Australian standards & manufacturer’s recommendations. Failure to do so will void your
warranty and could possibly void any home insurance.
Ensure that the electrical cable is accessible after installation. Ensure that the cable is kept away
from hot parts of the heater.
Ensure that the heater is not installed in an area that is subject to “negative pressure” ie indoor air
pressure that is below outside air pressure, eg due to installing the heater in an area without ade-
quate external ventilation. Negative pressure will result in ue exhaust being sucked back into the
room, which, if left uncorrected, can result in suffocation.
USING YOUR HEATER SAFELY
Ensure you are completely familiar with the usage section of these instructions before operating the
heater.
WARNING: Always open the air control fully before opening the heater door, to prevent a sudden
rush of air into the rebox.
We recommend using re retardant gloves when stacking wood into the rebox to prevent burns.
When stacking wood into the rebox, place the logs carefully. Prevent logs from rolling forward by
placing them front to back. Do not throw logs in as this may cause embers to y out of the rebox.
When removing ashes from the rebox, use a metal or other noncombustible container, with a tightly
tting lid and moved outdoors immediately to a location clear of combustible materials. Even seem-
ingly cool ashes can contain small, glowing hot embers.
For safety reasons do not overload or over re the heater, as this may cause safe temperatures to
be exceeded and result in a re hazard.
