Setup

1. Unpack the Safe: Carefully remove the diversion book safe and its keys from the packaging. Ensure both keys are present.
2. Inspect for Damage: Before use, visually inspect the safe for any signs of damage during transit.
3. Familiarize with Keys: Identify the two keys provided. These are unique to your safe. It is recommended to keep one key in a secure, memorable location and the other for regular access.
4. Placement: For optimal concealment, place the diversion safe on a bookshelf or bookcase, ideally in between other books. It can also be placed on a coffee table or nightstand.

Operating Instructions

Opening the Safe:

1. Locate the keyhole on the metal compartment inside the book.
2. Insert one of the provided keys into the keyhole.
3. Turn the key clockwise to unlock the compartment.
4. Lift the metal lid to access the storage space.

Storing Valuables:

• Place your desired items (cash, jewelry, documents, etc.) into the compartment.
• Ensure items fit without forcing the lid closed, as this could damage the lock mechanism or the items themselves.

Closing and Locking the Safe:

1. Gently lower the metal lid until it is flush with the book's interior.
2. Turn the key counter-clockwise to lock the compartment.
3. Remove the key.
4. Close the book cover to complete the concealment.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the book safe with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. For the metal interior, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
• Key Care: Keep the keys clean and dry. Do not force the key if it feels stiff; a small amount of graphite lubricant (not oil) can be applied to the key and inserted into the lock if necessary.
• Storage Environment: Store the safe in a dry environment, away from extreme temperatures and humidity, to prevent damage to the materials.
