Operating Instructions

Unlocking Methods

Advanced Features

• Passage Mode: Activate this mode via the app to keep the door unlocked for a specified period, useful for gatherings or when frequent entry/exit is needed.
• Auto-Lock: The lock can be configured via the app to automatically lock after a set period (e.g., 5-30 seconds) once the door is closed.

Maintenance

• Battery Replacement: When the low battery alert sounds or is indicated in the app, replace all 4 AAA batteries promptly.
• Emergency Power: If batteries die completely, connect a power bank to the micro-USB port on the front handle for temporary power to unlock the door. This port is for emergency power only, not for charging internal batteries.
• Cleaning: Wipe the lock surface and fingerprint sensor with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
