Operating Instructions

Code Entry

To unlock the door from the exterior, enter the correct code sequence on the keypad. Once the code is entered, turn the lever handle to retract the latch.

3. Rotate the tumblers to align with your desired new code.
4. Reassemble the lock.
5. Test the new code thoroughly before securing the door.

Detailed instructions for code changing are provided in the comprehensive manual.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Codelocks CL505.

• Cleaning: Wipe the lock surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, which can damage the PVD Stainless Steel finish.
• Lubrication: Periodically apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to moving parts, such as the latch bolt and spindle mechanism, to ensure smooth operation. Do not use oil-based lubricants.
• Inspection: Annually inspect all fixing screws for tightness and check for any signs of wear or damage to the lever, keypad, or lock body.

Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your CL505 lock.

• Problem: Code not working or difficult to enter.
  Solution: Ensure the correct code is being entered. Check if the tumblers are correctly aligned if the code was recently changed. Verify that the keypad buttons are not stuck.
• Problem: Lever does not retract the latch.
  Solution: If in coded mode, ensure the correct code has been entered. If in code-free mode, check for any obstruction or internal mechanism issues. Inspect the spindle for damage or misalignment.
