OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Opening Safe for the First Time
S&G® Spartan™ D-Drive Electronic Lock is shipped unlocked. Open the door by rotating
the hub on the front of the safe clockwise and pulling the safe door open. If the hub
seems stiff, insert a solid round wooden stick into one of the handle holes and turn the
hub clockwise to open. Then install the handles, if applicable.
Installing the Battery
Rhino Metals highly recommends using a 9-volt Duracell®or Energizer®alkaline
battery with a “Use Date” of at least four years in the future.
1. Unlock and pull the safe door open.
2. To remove the keypad, pull the tab (marked with blue arrow) on
the outer ring and rotate the ring around the keypad counter-
clockwise slightly.
3. Carefully pull the ring away from the safe to prevent damage to
the wiring harness, revealing the battery cavity.
4. With the battery cavity accessible, install a new 9-volt battery
into the terminals and tuck the battery and wiring harness back
into the battery cavity.
5. Push the ring back towards the safe and rotate the ring
clockwise. The ring will slide back towards the safe and click
into place.
6. With the door open, test the operation of the lock several
times before closing and locking the safe.

Operating the Electronic Lock
1. To unlock the safe, enter the existing six-digit user code. Each key press is
confirmed with an audio and visual (LED flash) signal.
2. The lock will indicate a valid user code entry with a double signal. Within four
seconds, turn the outer ring clockwise until it stops to retract the lock tang. Then
turn the handle or hand wheel clockwise.
3. To lock the safe, turn the handle or hand wheel counter-clockwise until it stops,
then turn the outer ring counter-clockwise until it stops to extend the lock tang.
It will be confirmed by a double signal. Always test to see if the lock has re-
engaged by turning the handle or hand wheel in either rotational direction.
Wrong Try Penalty
Every invalid user code entry is indicated by an audio and visual (LED flash) signal.
Entering five consecutive invalid user codes will result in a three-minute delay period.
The LED will flash at ten second intervals. At the end of the delay period, two or
more incorrect user codes will restart an additional five-minute delay period.
Changing the User Code
S&G® Spartan™ D-Drive Electronic Lock user codes are set at the factory as 1-2-3-4-
5-6. For security purposes, immediately change the user code to a unique user
code. The six-digit user code can be changed at any time. When creating a new user
code, avoid using personal data such as birth dates, street numbers or phone
numbers to keep valuables as secure as possible. Choose a personal six-digit user
code that can easily be remembered.
1. Press “0” six times.
2. Enter existing six-digit user code once.
3. Enter NEW six-digit user code twice.
4. Enter NEW six-digit user code once more to unlock the lock.
5. Test the lock several times with the NEW user code before closing and
locking the safe.
If a mistake is made, wait 30 seconds and then repeat steps 1-4.
LOW BATTERY IS THE MOST COMMON CAUSE OF ELECTRONIC LOCK ISSUES.
Repeated beeping during opening or any other unfamiliar occurrences
indicates that the battery is low and needs to be replaced immediately.
Always have the safe door open and locking bolts extended whenever
changing the user code.
During the delay period, pressing any key or removing the battery will extend
the delay period for up to fifteen minutes.

Lost User Code for Electronic Locks
Most safes with electronic locks have their override user code on file at Rhino Metals
The override user codes are tracked by model and serial number. If user code is lost, a
$25.00 research fee will be assessed for restoring the user code. The request requires
completing and providing proper documentation of ownership of the safe.
Rhino Metals cannot guarantee to recover a user code or responsibility for keeping
the information. Please keep user code in a secure place outside the safe.
IMPORTANT FOR ELECTRONIC LOCKS
♦ DO NOT CLOSE THE SAFE DOOR IF THE USER CODE DOES NOT WORK. Refer to the
Troubleshooting Guide or call Rhino Metals Tech Support for further assistance.
Do not wait until the safe is locked out.
♦ Store the safe’s model, serial number, Owner’s Manual, and user code in a
secure location outside the safe.
♦ When a user code is changed always check to make sure the previous user
code will no longer open the lock.
♦ Replace the battery annually to ensure reliable access into the safe.
♦ Always center the handle or hand wheel with the safe door to ensure that there is
no pressure on the lock as it could cause a lockout.
♦ Consider purchasing an Extended Lock Warranty for extended services.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the Safe Body
Use a clean and soft cloth (such as a microfiber cleaning cloth) that is slightly
damp with water to clean the exterior of the safe. Take care around the edges
of any logos or pin striping as any pressure could cause damage to them.
Cleaning Safe Locks and Handles
Locks and handles are coated to protect from rust or tarnish. Do not use any
kind of metal polish or harsh cleaning products. Simply wipe off with a soft,
damp cloth. Minor scratches may be touched up with a paint touch up kit
available from Rhino Metals.
Electronic Lock Maintenance
While electronic locks do not need annual maintenance, changing out the
battery once a year is highly recommended to ensure reliable access into the
safe. Rhino Metals recommends using a 9-volt Duracell® or Energizer® alkaline
battery with a “Use Date” at least four-years in the future.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Common Issues Possible Solutions
Electronic Lock Not
Working Properly
Replace the battery with a new 9-volt Duracell® or Energizer®
alkaline battery with a “Use Date” of at least four years in the
future.
Any pressure on the side of the lock tang might prevent the
lock
from operating properly. If attempting to unlock the safe
, rotate
the handle counter-clockwise and keep a slight pressure
on the
handle while the user code is entered. Once two beeps are heard
,
wait for two seconds, and then rotate hub or hand
wheel clockwise
to open. If attempting to lock the safe, turn the handle counter
-
clockwise until it stops, then press and hold the handle counter
-
clockwise for seven seconds before checking if it is locked.
Make sure the wiring harness is properly and tightly connected to
the keypad with no pinched wires or bent connectors.
If the light on lock is randomly flashing, lock may be in a delay
period. Do not attempt to enter any user code for a period of
fifteen minutes. If attempts to enter a user code while in a delay
period, the delay will be extended. Changing or removing the
battery on the keypad while in a delay period will also extend the
delay. After waiting for the duration of the delay period and the
light stops flashing, then enter the user code. If it is still flashing
randomly, wait up to two hours before trying again.
Lost User Code
See Lost User Code instructions, depending on lock type. Rhino
Metals cannot give user codes over the phone as there is no
method to verify ownership of the safe.
WARRANTY CLAIMS AND REPAIRS

INSURANCE COVERAGE
Rhino Metals highly recommends purchasing additional insurance coverage to the
total value of the contents in the safe. The Limited Lifetime Warranty does not
insure any of the contents inside the safe. Most homeowner insurers require

policy for personal items. Be sure to check with a residential insurance provider for
more details.
