operation and servicing of the heater. For clearances to furniture and

curtains refer to warning on page 4.

For minimum clearances refer figures 10 and 11.

The clearance is required for correct fluing of the appliance. If the

clearance is less than 50mm a cabinet depth spacer must be fitted. The

spacer can be ordered from the Cannon distributor. Order specifica-

tion for the spacer is ‘Fitzspacer”.

This is the requirement for installation into a masonry or brick fireplace

without flue connection.

Installation into a masonry/brick or mock fireplace.

Installation instructions

13. Slide heater into the fireplace ensuring that gas inlet pipe is fed through

the hole at the rear bottom RHS of the heater. Refer figure 24 and gas

connection figure 26.

14. With heater in position, flanges should be hard against masonry. Se-

cure case flanges to the masonry. Refer figure 25.

15. Connect incoming gas supply pipe to regulator. For inlet position see

figure 26. Close gate over gas supply and seal around the pipe with

fibreglass insulation material. Sealing is important as it prevents leak-
