SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

The safe door is heavy. Do not open the door with the safe on an uneven or
unstable floor. Hanging on an open door may cause the safe to tip forward
when not lag-bolted to the floor, resulting in serious injury or death to
yourself or others. If you have or have occasion to have small children in
your home, please make sure you never leave your safe unsecured. It is
possible for small children to climb inside your safe and become locked in.
This could result in serious injury or death

APPROPRIATE USE OF YOUR SAFE

This Executive Safe protects records and many other valuables. Testing
shows that the interior temperature of the safe remains below 350°F (177°C)
for 25 minutes during a fire up to 1100°F (593°C) when used properly. Your
safe must be closed and latched in order to properly protect the contents
from fire.

SAFE CARE AND MAINTENANCE

When properly maintained, your safe will continue to operate for many years.
In order to ensure optimum performance of your safe, please follow these
simple precautions:

REPLACE BATTERIES – For best results and performance, we recommend

that the batteries be replaced at least once a year or sooner depending on
amount of use.

CLEAN HANDS - Never attempt to operate the digital keypad if your hands

have excessive dirt, debris or liquids on them.

CLEAN SAFE – To clean the surface of your safe, it is recommended that

you use a mild cleaner (e.g., window cleaner) to avoid scratching or
discoloring the surface. Always wipe dry and NEVER use abrasive cleansers
on the safe or digital keypad.

MOISTURE – We recommend that you place delicate items such as pictures

or intricate jewelry into an air-tight container before storing them in your safe.
Avoid placing your safe in areas of high humidity. For optimum performance,
the safe should be opened and aired out for at least 20 minutes every two
weeks.
For future reference, store this Operation and Installation Guide in a secure
area away from the safe. DO NOT DISCARD!

MOVING YOUR SAFE

Before moving your safe, verify the load bearing weight of the floors and
stairs, and types of flooring the safe will be moved over (tile, wood, and other
flooring can be damaged by the weight of the safe). To determine whether or
not your safe will make it through doorways, stairs or corners take the empty
safe box and see if it will fit all the way through to its final location.

PLACEMENT OF YOUR SAFE

Proper installation and anchoring are critical to the security of your safe.
Install near a load-bearing wall to support the weight of the safe.
To help protect the exterior finish of your safe, install inside in a dry location
where there is climate control (heat in the winter and cooling in the summer).

ANCHORING YOUR SAFE

You may bolt the safe to the wall or floor to increase protection from theft
and resistance to tipping. This safe was manufactured with bolt down holes
pre-drilled in the back panel and floor panel. To secure your safe to the wall
and/or floor:

1. Remove the liner from the back and/or floor of safe and locate the

pre-drilled holes.

2. Anchor the safe using the mounting hardware kit which includes (2)

3” x 3/8” lag screws and anchors. Securing back of safe to wall studs
is important.

3. Once completed, replace protective liners.

NOTE: Bolting/unbolting of the unit is at the consumer’s expense and
discretion. LH Licensed Products is not responsible for any costs incurred if
the unit is to be replaced.

If you have any questions about mounting the safe, please check with your
local home center/hardware retailer or independent contractor.

INSTALLING SHELVES

This safe includes (2) adjustable/removable shelves and (1) gun rack.
To install:

1. Remove shelves, gun rack and (12) shelf support clips from protective

wrapping.

2. Each shelf will require (4) support clips.

3. Determine the desired location of your shelf and/or gun rack and note

the corresponding support guide slots on the vertical standards that
are best suited to support the shelf in that location.

4. Insert (1) support clip into each of the vertical standards. The top of

the support clip should be placed into the selected slot first and then
the bottom of clip will lock in place when pushed back.
IMPORTANT: Make sure all (4) clips are installed at the same height
on the vertical standards so that the shelf is level.

5. Install the shelf into position by placing inside the safe (tilting if

necessary) and lowering into position on the support clips.

6. Repeat procedure for 2

nd

shelf. HINT: If shelves are not being used,

they can be stored in the bottom of the safe.

LOADING YOUR SAFE

Store documents and ammunition in the bottom of the safe for greatest
protection against fire damage. If you are storing electronic media, use a
Media Cooler (not included) to provide additional protection. Do not put
anything in your safe that will put pressure against the door when it is closed.
If you live in a humid environment, it is recommended that you use a
dehumidifier or desiccant to protect the contents from rust or mildew.
