Operating Instructions
1. Setting Passwords
- The lock supports passwords of 4-7 digits.
- Passwords can be entered in any order. For example, if your password is '1234', pressing '4321' will also unlock the door. This is a design feature.
- Refer to the detailed instructions included with your product for specific steps on how to set or change the password for both the internal and external keypads.
2. Double-Sided Keypad Operation
This lock features keypads on both the exterior and interior sides. This means a password is required to unlock the door from both directions. This is particularly useful for preventing young children from opening the door unsupervised.
