IMPORTANT CARE AND MAINTENANCE
To ensure optimal performance of your safe, please follow these simple guidelines:
After opening your safe for the first time, leave the door open for 24 hours to let it acclimate to
your home’s air conditions.
CLEAN HANDS
Clean hands before operating your safe, particularly the keypad.
CLEAN SAFE
Regularly wipe down the surface of your safe. To remove excess dirt or stains, 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 WARNING
The natural presence of water in the air and the level of humidity in your home will impact the
moisture level inside your safe. Waterproof safes are designed with airtight seals to keep water out,
so once moisture gets inside the safe it cannot evaporate. To keep low moisture levels inside the
safe and prevent damage to valuables, we recommend the following:
• Open and air out your safe for at least 30 minutes every two weeks to prevent moisture build-
up. This will balance the interior and exterior humidity levels and allow any excess moisture
trapped inside to escape. It is recommended to occasionally air out the safe for longer periods
of time. Look for signs of moisture to determine if you need to air it out more often.
• Avoid placing your safe in areas of high humidity, such as basements.
• Consider adding moisture-absorbing products to your safe, such as desiccant packs.
• Place delicate items such as pictures or important paper documents in airtight bags or
containers for added protection.
Note: If you do not open waterproof safes on a regular basis to let them air out, you may begin to
notice damp surfaces and/or musty smells, especially on paperwork. The manufacturer will not be
responsible for any damage or loss of items placed in waterproof safes due to moisture. Proper
care and preventative maintenance are the owner’s responsibility and is required to assure
continued levels protection and trouble-free performance during the lifetime of the safe.
WARNING:
This safe is not intended for the storage of medications, pearls, firearms, ammunition, or
combustible items of any kind.
