Use, Care and Maintenance
Safe Care and Maintenance
When properly maintained, your safe will continue to provide protection for
many years. In order to ensure optimum performance of your safe, please follow
these simple precautions:
Clean Hands - Do not attempt to operate combination dial if your hands have
excessive dirt, debris, or liquids on them. Under normal circumstances, it is not
necessary to wash your hands before using the safe.
Clean Safe – To clean the outside surface of your safe, it is recommended that
you use a mild cleaner (e.g., window cleaner) to avoid scratching or discoloring
the surface. Do not use abrasive cleansers.
For future reference, store this Operation and Installation Guide in a secure area
away from the safe. DO NOT DISCARD!
Appropriate Use of Your Safe
This First Alert® Waterproof, Fire Resistant with Ready-Seal Safe™
protects important documents and many other valuables.
Verified fire protection for: Memory sticks, CD’s & DVD’s, USB Drives.
This product is NOT INTENDED to protect audio or video cassettes, floppy discs, data
cartridges, film and photos or photo negatives
Testing shows that the interior temperature of the safe remains below 350°F (177°C)
for one hour during a fire up to 1700°F (927°C) when used properly. Your safe must
be closed and latched in order to properly protect the contents from fire.
Moisture Warning
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.

This safe is not designed to store medication, items with combustible content,
guns or other weapons. Please contact BRK at 800-223-8566 or shop
www.FirstAlert.com for information about safes that can securely store your
firearms or medication.
Pearls
Because pearls sustain heat damage at temperatures below 350° F, we advise that
you DO NOT store pearls in this fire safe.
Your Safe’s Unique Identification Numbers
When contacting Consumer Affairs, you should be prepared to supply some
important information that specifically identifies your safe. This information is
extremely important to assuring prompt and accurate customer assistance.
It is strongly recommended that you identify and record the following information in
the Safe Identification Record form located on the inside back cover of this manual:
Model Number
Serial Number
Key Number
Locating Model and Serial Numbers
Most First Alert®safes include a small metallic silver or gray tag usually located
on the front or right side of the safe. This tag contains the serial number, and on
selected models a similar tag is attached containing the model number. If a model
number tag is not attached to the safe, then it can be located on the front or
side panel of the box that the safe was packaged in. Write this number down for
future reference.
Key Number
The Key Number is located on the key. If you do not have the key, the number is
also imprinted on the Emergency Override Key lock.
Important: DO NOT REMOVE TAGS!
In case your safe becomes inoperable or you lose your keys, these identification
numbers will be needed to correct the problem. It is recommended that the
number tags remain in place on the safe. If removal is necessary, then they should
be attached to the inside back cover of the Operation and Installation Guide.
