1.Hold the key with hook end pointing to the right.

2.Insert the key straight into the slot, only to the point where bend stops on the lip of the slot.

3.Slide the key to the right until the handle is centered in the slot.

4.Rotate the key 90 degrees (1/4 turn) counterclockwise.

5.Keeping the handle of the key all the way to the right in the slot, press the key into the slot. The end of the key should press on a small spring loaded tab within the cradle.
