Setup and Combination Setting

Your Kingsley Guard-a-Key lockbox comes with a default combination, typically 0-0-0-0. It is highly recommended to change this to a personal, memorable combination immediately after unboxing.

Steps to Set/Reset Your Combination:

1. Open the Lockbox: Ensure the lockbox is currently set to the correct combination (default 0-0-0-0 or your last set code). Pull up the shackle to open the lockbox.

2. Rotate the Shackle: With the shackle pulled up, rotate it 90 degrees counter-clockwise. You will feel a slight click as it aligns with a notch in the lock body.
3. Press Down and Rotate: While applying downward pressure on the shackle into the lock body, continue rotating it another 90 degrees counter-clockwise until it stops. Do not force it past its natural stopping point.
4. Set New Combination: With the shackle in this rotated and depressed position, set your desired 4-digit combination by rotating the dials. Ensure the numbers are clearly aligned with the indicator line on the side of the lockbox.

5. Return Shackle to Original Position: Once your new combination is set, rotate the shackle 180 degrees clockwise, pulling it up slightly as needed, until it returns to its original upright position. Release the shackle.
6. Test the Combination: Scramble the dials to secure the lock. Then, enter your new combination and attempt to open the lockbox to verify it works correctly.

Note: If you wish to change the combination again in the future, always start with the current combination, not the factory default.
