3.2 Setting/Changing Passcode

Refer to the detailed instructions provided in the included user manual (PDF) for specific steps on how to set or change your personal digital pass code. It is crucial to choose a strong, memorable code and keep it confidential.

3.3 Anti-Theft Alarm System & Silent Mode

The safe is equipped with an anti-theft alarm system. If an incorrect password is entered 3 times consecutively, the system will lock for 20 seconds. If the incorrect password is entered 6 times consecutively, it will lock for 5 minutes. This feature enhances security by deterring unauthorized access.

For situations requiring discreet operation, the safe can be set to silent mode. This mutes the keypad beeps and alarm sounds. Consult the detailed user manual (PDF) for instructions on activating and deactivating silent mode.

Upon successful opening with a passcode, the safe's interior light will automatically turn on, providing illumination for 30 seconds before slowly fading out. This feature allows for easy visibility of contents, even in low-light conditions. A red indicator light will also alert you when the battery level is low.

3.5 Removable Shelf

The safe includes a removable shelf, allowing you to customize the interior space to accommodate items of various sizes. To remove or re-position the shelf, simply lift it from its supports.

4. Maintenance

4.1 General Care

To maintain the appearance and functionality of your safe, wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure the safe is kept in a dry environment to prevent moisture damage.

4.2 Battery Replacement

When the low battery indicator light illuminates, replace the batteries promptly to ensure continuous operation of the digital keypad. Use the same type and number of batteries as originally installed. If the batteries completely drain, use the external battery box or the override key to open the safe.

5.2 Keypad Not Responding

• Check battery installation and replace batteries if necessary.
• Ensure the external battery box is properly connected if being used.
