5. Operating Instructions

Locking and Unlocking:

• From Exterior: Insert the key into the deadbolt cylinder and turn to lock or unlock. The handleset can be locked by the thumbturn on the exterior.
• From Interior: Use the turnpiece on the deadbolt to lock or unlock. The interior lever operates independently for egress.

Using SmartKey Technology:

SmartKey Technology allows you to re-key your lock to a new key in seconds, providing convenience and enhanced security. This is particularly useful if you lose a key or wish to consolidate multiple locks to a single key.

1. Insert your functioning key into the lock and turn it 90 degrees clockwise.
2. Insert the SmartKey tool fully and firmly into the SmartKey hole. Remove the SmartKey tool.
3. Remove your functioning key.
4. Insert your new key fully and firmly into the lock. Turn the new key 90 degrees counter-clockwise.
5. Remove the new key. The lock is now re-keyed.

Always test the new key multiple times to ensure proper operation before closing the door.

6. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Weiser handleset, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Clean the handleset regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish.
• Lubrication: Periodically apply a small amount of graphite lubricant or a silicone-based spray to the keyway and internal mechanisms to ensure smooth operation. Do not use oil-based lubricants.
• Tighten Screws: Check and tighten all mounting screws periodically to prevent looseness and ensure secure installation.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Weiser handleset, consider the following common solutions:

• Difficulty Turning Key: Ensure the key is fully inserted. Check for debris in the keyway and try lubricating it. If using SmartKey, ensure the re-keying process was completed correctly.
• Latch Not Retracting: Check for obstructions in the door frame or strike plate. Ensure the latch is properly aligned with the strike plate.
• Loose Handleset: Tighten the mounting screws on both the interior and exterior components.
• Deadbolt Not Extending Fully: Verify that the deadbolt hole in the door frame is deep enough and clear of obstructions.

If problems persist after attempting these steps, please contact Weiser customer support for further assistance.
