Use and Care Manual

4. Loading Your Safe
Do not put anything in your safe that will put pressure against the door when it’s closed.
Overloading shelves (50 + lbs.) can cause them to sag or break. Maximum weights vary by model.
Store heavy contents away from the middle of the shelf and
try to distribute weight evenly across shelf.
• When putting guns into your safe, make sure they rest securely into the cutouts to prevent accidental
tipping when the door is closed.
• A dehumidifier or desiccant is recommended in humid environment to protect against rust and mildew.
Dehumidifiers and other moisture reducing products are available from your dealer or
www.cannonsafe.com
.
• If using the optional Door Panel Pistol kit the holsters should be securely attached and not hitting against
the shelves or other objects in the safe. Door Panel Pistol kit is available through your dealer or
www.cannonsafe.com
.
5. Electrical Outlet (Select Models )
Electric outlets are pre-installed on all models
• Locate the power cord inside the safe.
. Some assembly required:
• Insert the plug into the electrical access hole in the back of the safe.
Electrical outlet only powers items plugged into the outlet inside the safe.
Electronic locks are only powered by the 9volt battery outside the safe.
6. Door Adjustment
If your safe door has excessive in and out play that exceeds 1/8 inch, the door can be adjusted by using a Phillips
screwdriver.
Use caution when adjusting.
Over adjustment can cause a lock out.
Example to the right.
With the door open locate the U-Shaped cutout on the rear of the left
door jam that’s in alignment with the second locking bolt from the top.
Using a Philips screwdriver insert the end into the hole in the middle of
the U-Shaped cutout. Gently pull away from the safe in small increments
to tighten.
