Setup
1. Installing Batteries
- Open the safe using the backup key. The keyhole is typically located behind a small cover on the front panel.

- Insert the required batteries (typically 4x AA, refer to the compartment label) ensuring correct polarity.
- Close the battery compartment.
2. Setting Up Fingerprints
The safe can store multiple fingerprints for quick access.
- With the safe open, locate the programming button (often a small button near the fingerprint scanner or inside the safe).
- Press and hold the programming button until the indicator light (usually blue) illuminates.
- Place your finger on the fingerprint scanner. The light will flash. Lift and repeat this process several times (typically 3-5 times) from different angles to ensure a complete scan.
- Once successfully programmed, the safe will usually emit a confirmation sound (e.g., two beeps) and the light will turn off.
- Repeat for additional fingerprints as desired.
3. Setting Up Keypad Code
The safe allows for a custom numerical access code.
- With the safe open, press the programming button once. The indicator light will illuminate.
- Enter your desired 4-6 digit code on the keypad.
- Press the programming button again to confirm. The safe will emit a confirmation sound.
- Test your new code with the safe door open before closing it.
4. Mounting Options
The safe can be mounted to a wall, floor, or secured with a cable.
- Wall/Floor Mounting: Use the provided mounting hardware. Pre-drilled holes are located inside the safe, often under the foam lining. Ensure the mounting surface is strong enough to support the safe and its contents.
- Security Cable: Thread the security cable through the designated hole in the safe and secure it to a fixed object.
Operating Instructions
1. Opening with Fingerprint
Place your programmed finger firmly on the fingerprint scanner. The safe will unlock and the lid will spring open if the fingerprint is recognized.
2. Opening with Keypad Code
Enter your programmed 4-6 digit code on the keypad. The safe will unlock and the lid will spring open if the code is correct.
3. Opening with Backup Key
In case of battery failure or forgotten codes, use one of the provided backup keys. Insert the key into the keyhole (located behind a cover) and turn it to unlock the safe.
4. Silent Mode
The safe features a silent mode for discreet operation. Refer to the specific instructions in your manual for activating and deactivating this feature, as it may vary.
5. Internal LED Light
The safe is equipped with an internal LED light that illuminates the interior when opened, aiding visibility in low-light conditions.
Maintenance
1. Battery Replacement
When the batteries are low, the safe will typically indicate this with a warning light or sound. Replace all batteries with new ones promptly to ensure continuous operation. Use the backup key if the batteries are completely depleted.
2. Cleaning
Wipe the exterior of the safe with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish or electronic components. Keep the fingerprint scanner clean and free of debris for optimal performance.
