OPENING SAFE FOR THE FIRST TIME
EXTENDING BOLTS BEFORE VERIFYING COMBINATION
VERIFYING THE COMBINATION
The combination lock on your safe has been set randomly at the factory. After
completely dialing the combination provided with your safe, turn the safe handle
clockwise and open the door. With the door open it is recommended that you
verify the combination opens a few times before using the safe. It is also strongly
recommended that you do this after moving the safe.
It is preferred to verify your safe combination with the door open. If there are
problems, it is easier to service the lock or mechanism with the door open.
Before verifying your combination, you will need to extend the door bolts while
the door is open. Keep the door open. You can now verify your combination.

CHANGING COMBINATIONS ON MANUAL LOCKS
It is inadvisable for anyone other than a CERTIFIED LOCKSMITH to change the
combination on a manual lock. Changing the combination by anyone other than a
certified technician will void the lock portion of your warranty.
The lock requires accurate alignment with the index mark (located at twelve o'clock position
on the dial ring). Always turn the dial slowly and steadily when entering your combination to avoid
dialing past your numbers. Never spin the dial rapidly back and forth as this may cause damage to
the lock. If you go past any number - even if by only a half a number - the entire combination must
be re- dialed. To verify your combination, follow the five steps below.

COMBINATION ON MANUAL LOCKS
Visit the FAQ section on
www.firstalert.com.
For your protection, the most important
aspect of this process is for us to verify the
true ownership of the safe. Please go to
www.firstalert.com and click on the
COMBINATION/KEY REQUEST page and
follow the instructions. Once completed, fax
or email the forms to us for an processing.
Door Rattles When Shut Verify that the handle is rotating
completely and that the locking bolts
are fully extending. Refer to the
DOOR ADJUSTERS section on Page 7.
DOOR ADJUSTERS
Most safe models have one or two adjusters for tightening or loosening
the door. These adjusters are located just inside the left side of the safes
doorjamb. After removing all packaging materials, close the door and extend
the bolts. Pull out on the door handle to check the tightness. If there is play
in the door, you will need to adjust
the slide. Using the supplied door
adjustment wrench, loosen the
two (2) adjuster screws. Slide the
adjuster left to loosen the door,
right to tighten the door. Re-tighten
screws and check door again for t.
When properly adjusted, you should
feel slight resistance when turning
the handle to extend the door bolts.
Only slight movement should be
felt with the door shut.
Caution: Do not adjust door too
tight. This may cause wear on
both the door pins and locking
mechanism. If your door has a
tendency to self-open (the bolts retract by themselves) or the handle is hard
to turn when extending the bolts, the door adjusters may be too tight.

USE,CARE AND MAINTENANCE
When properly maintained, your safe will continue to operate and accurately read
the authorized combination for many years. In order to ensure optimal performance of
your safe, please follow these simple precautions:
Clean Hand –Never attempt to operate the mechanical dial 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.
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

number tags remain in place on the safe. If removal is necessary,
