Part #4305280 Revised 02/20

Each AMSEC safe is professionally hand-crafted with quality materials and is equipped with a precision-quality, digital
lock. To become familiar with the lock, operate the lock (as outlined below) several times before closing the door and
locking the safe.
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS:
• Don’t slam the door. Extreme shock can damage the lock or jam the boltwork.
• Don’t shut the door with the boltwork in the locked position. Damage to the boltwork and marring the safe’s
nish may result.
• Don’t stack contents of the safe so that the door must be forced shut. Jamming of the boltwork may result.
• Don’t store the combination card inside the safe.
• Don’t use oil, grease or any other lubricant on the digital lock.
• Keep all moving parts clean and free from obstruction, water and grease.
• If you experience a dierence in the feel of the operation, inconsistency or diculty opening or operating the
safe, DO NOT LOCK THE SAFE. Immediately contact the security store from whom you purchased the safe. If this is
not practical, contact the AMSEC service department at 951-685-9680, Ext. 1036.
KEEP THE EXTERNAL BATTERY BOX IN A SAFE PLACE - BUT NOT IN THE SAFE!
Operating Your Safe
INITIAL SETUP
Install four (4) AA batteries into the power override box and plug connector into the external battery plug on the front of the
keypad. When connected, you will hear several conrmation tones followed by a ‘melody’ as the safe initializes, followed by an‘All
Ready’ word prompt once this is complete. At this point the LCD display should show:
Battery Indicator, Year/Month/Day, Week and Time.
Press #1234# (personal code) or #123456# (administrator code) to unlock safe (the # key awakens the screen from‘sleep’mode).
Upon entering the code successfully the LCD screen will turn blue and display “OPEN.” You will now have 5 seconds to turn Knob
to open safe door before the action times out and relocks. If this happens re-enter either of the above codes, remembering to
turn the knob within 5 seconds.
Before proceeding any further, disconnect breakout box from the front of safe and either remove the batteries from the breakout
box to be used in the battery box on the inside of the safe’s door, or, alternatively, use 4 additional AA batteries. Once the
breakout box is disconnected and the new batteries are in place, power-up sequence will be repeated.
SETTING THE DATE
The time, date, etc., can all be set regardless of whether the safe’s door is open or closed. The date format for the safe is YEAR/
MONTH/DAY. To set the date, rst press *and then press 0to descend or 8to ascend. You will have 6 seconds to make an entry
between elds or the operation will be canceled. If this happens press the *key to again enter time/date mode, skipping to the
last eld of entry using the #. Once the desired year value is reached, press the #to move to the next eld, again using 0or 8to
reach the desired month, day and so on.

Once the day is entered, pressing the #will move to the time eld. It’s important to note the time is displayed in military time,
meaning any hour after 12:59 p.m. continues up to the next number sequence, like so: 13:00 (1 p.m.), 14:42 (2:42 p.m.), and so on,
up to 23:59 (11:59 p.m.) with Midnight being 00:00. Thus the time will need to be set accordingly.
QUICK REFERENCE: To quickly compute military time, simply add 12 to any hour after 1 p.m. and up to 11:59 p.m. (minutes
always stay the same). From Midnight to 12:59 p.m., hours remain the same.
The last eld, week, is the day of the week, 1 – 7, where 1 represents Monday, 2, Tuesday, and so on. You can choose what day will
begin the start of the week.
PERSONAL/ADMINISTRATOR CODES
The personal code #1234# and the administrator code #123456# are set up before leaving the factory. For your protection and
security, it is recommended that these generic codes be changed to something familiar and easily remembered, and known only
by the Administrator or owner.
Administrator and personal codes must be entered before creating or changing ANY codes. A personal code simply is a code set
up and given out by the administrator to allow another user limited access.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The administrator has the ability to view an “Open Door” record, which will display the time, date and code of
the last person accessing the safe (more about this later).
ALWAYS KEEP A HARD COPY OF PASSCODES -- BUT NOT IN THE SAFE!
DOOR MECHANISM
Each time the door is opened or closed, and the Knob is left in the ‘unlock’ position, the door will remain unlocked until the Knob
is turned to the ‘lock’ position.
If a code is successfully entered (conrmed in the display by the words“OPEN”) but the Knob is not turned, the operation will
time out in 5 seconds and the safe will remain locked. The code will again have to be entered and the Knob subsequently turned
within 5 seconds to gain access to the safe. If the Knob is turned to the ‘lock’ position while the door is open, you will have
to re-enter your code to close the door.
CONCEALING YOUR CODE:
Your code may be hidden from view by others. Press # then * then your code #. The display will only show 0 each time a number
button is pressed.
NOTE: This must be done each time you enter your code to prevent the actual number from appearing on the display as you
enter your code.
TAMPER ALARM:
You may set a Tamper Alarm that will sound if anyone attempts to move or attack the safe.
In the sleep mode, Press 0on the key pad. The key pad display will show BELL ON. To turn alarm o, enter # the current code, and
then # . If no code is entered to clear an alarm, the alarm will clear after 1 minute.
