5. Operating Instructions
5.1 Setting the Combination
The ARREGUI KEEPER SEG012 comes with a default combination (usually 0-0-0-0). It is highly recommended to change this to a personal, memorable code immediately after installation.
- Open the Safe: Slide down the protective cap to reveal the combination dials. Enter the current combination (default 0-0-0-0) and pull the lever to open the safe door.
- Locate Reset Lever: Inside the safe door, locate the reset lever (often a small switch or button). Move this lever to the "SET" or "RESET" position.
- Set New Combination: With the reset lever in the correct position, rotate the dials to your desired 4-digit combination. Choose a combination that is easy for you to remember but difficult for others to guess.
- Confirm New Combination: Return the reset lever to its original position (e.g., "LOCK" or "NORMAL"). This locks in your new combination.
- Test New Combination: Before closing the safe, scramble the dials and then enter your new combination to ensure it opens correctly.
- Record Combination: It is advisable to write down your combination and store it in a secure, separate location.
Important: Once the combination is changed and the reset lever is returned to its original position, the previous combination will no longer work. There is no master key or override for the combination lock.
