TEMPERATURE-BUFFERED SENSOR

The temperature probe (green bottle) provides and maintains
accurate readings when refrigerator doors are opened.

Probe is sealed in a miniature bottle that simulates vials, and is filled
with non-toxic glycol (recognized by the FDA as safe), eliminating
concerns about incidental contact with food or medicines.

Self adhesive wire routing clips provided for your convenience.
Bring wire over door, keeping the wire taut. Use wire routing clips to
keep the wire in place. Wire is 10 feet long, allowing it to be used
anywhere within the refrigerator.

It is highly recommended that this probe is placed on a shelf along
with other medications and not on the inside of the refrigerator door.

Step

Install the strike

1:

Note: The end of the metal

strike needs to curve up.

Foam Tape Installation

Please note that if foam tape installation
of the strike is used, the strike will not
be adjustable once it's put in place.
a. Clean top of both the refrigerator
and the strike with rubbing alcohol.
Wait for the alcohol to dry.
b. With a pencil, mark refrigerator 7-1 ⁄16"
from the front of the door and at least

3.5" from the non-hinged edge.

There are two main parts of this installation: installing the strike and installing the
eLock assembly. The strike and the eLock assembly can be mounted either with foam
tape or by drilling holes and using screws. It is important to note that mounting the
strike and the eLock assembly are independent of each other. One can be foam
tape mounted, and one can be drill mounted if desired. The two do not need
to be mounted using the same method.

Mount the strike
at least 3.5" from
NoN-hiNged edge
of the refrigerator.

Measure from this line to the front
of the cabinet (dim. “A”); cut a piece
of tape this length.
c. Remove tape backer and affix to end
of strike. The upward curve should be
on top. Apply tape to the opposite
side. Remove backer. Line up strike
with line on refrigerator; apply
pressure to seal it on.

Drilling Installation

a. Before drilling, verify that there are
no refrigerant lines inside the top
of the refrigerator.
b. Drill a 9/64" hole, 6-1 ⁄ 16" from
the edge of the front of the refrigerator
and at least 3.5" from the non-hinged
edge of the refrigerator.

Step

2:

Secure the strike and attach the strike cover (if strike was mounted using foam tape, ONLY do b.)

a. Screw one tamper resistant sheet
metal screw into the center of the strike's
slotted area. Note: The end of the metal

strike needs to curve up.

b. Place the plastic strike cover over the
metal strike. If strike was mounted using
foam tape, please proceed to Step 3.

c. Attach with one tamper resistant
machine screw.

Temperature Monitoring

Step

Mount the main CompX eLock® body to the refrigerator door

3:

The CompX eLock® assembly (body) can be mounted to the front of the refrigerator
either by using foam tape or by drilling holes.

Foam Tape Installation

Please note that if foam tape installation of the strike is used,
the main CompX eLock® will not be adjustable once it's put in place.
a. Install one piece of double-sided tape on each side
of the CompX refrigerator eLock assembly.
b. Remove liner from double-sided tape.
c. Carefully press CompX eLock® onto the center of the strike.

Drilling Installation

a. Click CompX eLock® onto strike.
b. Push assembly up and center it on the strike.
c. Drill six 9/64" holes through the housing into the refrigerator door
for the mounting screws. Secure with screws. Note: Top two screws may

be omitted if they interfere with door handle access.

Note: If foam tape was used to mount the strike, the CompX eLock

installation is COMPLETE. The CompX eLock® may now be used.

Step

Finish installation of the strike (ONLY if drilled installation of strike was used)

®

refrigerator kit

4:

a. Remove the plastic cover from the strike plate. Drill 9/64" hole
in second opening of strike.

b. If adjustment of strike is needed, loosen up the first strike
screw and adjust the strike. Tighten up the screw.

c. Drill hole for second screw and install second screw.

d. Reattach the plastic strike cover and attach with two
tamper resistant machine screws.
