Replacing the batteries will not erase your personal Passcode from memory.
However, weak or dead batteries will prevent the use of the digital keypad. Access
to the safe will have to be made using the Emergency Override Key. (See page 3).
ProgrAmmIng A PerSonAl PASScode
For security reasons, it is very important that you program your own personal Passcode
into the digital lock. The factory Passcode 159A should be changed immediately.
1
Using the factory assigned Passcode (159A),
open the safe. (See page 5).
2
Locate and then press and release the small red memory
button located inside the safe on the edge of the lock cover.
The keypad will beep twice and the yellow LED will light.
3
Select a Passcode using 3 to 8 numbers (no letters)
and enter it on the keypad.
4
After entering the numbers, press the B key. The keypad
will again beep twice and the yellow LED will light. This will
complete the programming of your personal Passcode. Leave
the door open and proceed to Testing Your New Passcode.
5
The light will once again ash and you will hear a beep.
OPENING YOUR SAFE WITH YOUR NEW PASSCODE
1
With the door in the open position, push the lock
handle into the closed position. In about 3 seconds,
the safe will automatically lock.
2
Enter your new personal Passcode onto the keypad followed
by the letter 'A' and the digital lock should click open.
3
Pull the handle and open the safe.
4
If the new Passcode does not unlock the safe, then repeat the steps
to program your personal Passcode and retest.
ImPortAnt
Your new Passcode will always consist of your selected number code followed
by the letter 'A'. Once programming is completed, write your personal Passcode
down and store it in a safe and secure place away from the safe. The factory
pre-set Passcode will no longer open your safe.
InItIAl SetuP

into the bypass lock and turn to the left.

2
If the yellow LED ashes and you hear a beep,
the batteries are good.
