In order to ensure optimum performance of your safe, please follow these simple precautions:
Battery Maintenance
1 Always purchase and use a 9V Duracell or Energizer battery.
2Replace battery at least once a year or sooner depending on amount of use.
3 Always clean the battery contacts in the battery compartment and on the battery before installing new battery.
4 Always make sure battery matches the polarity (+ and -) signs in the open battery compartment.
5 If your safe will not be used for an extended period of time, it is recommended that you remove the battery.
6Always promptly remove and properly discard of used battery.
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!
