Setup and Installation

1. Unpacking

Carefully remove the safe from its packaging. Inspect the safe for any signs of damage during transit. Retain the packaging materials for future transport or if a return is necessary.

Locate the battery compartment, typically found on the inside of the safe door. Insert the required batteries (e.g., 4 AA batteries, not included) ensuring correct polarity. The safe will not operate without power.

3. Initial Access (Using Emergency Key)

For the first time opening the safe, or if you forget your code/fingerprint, use one of the provided emergency keys. The keyhole is usually concealed. Insert the key and turn it to open the safe door.

4. Mounting the Safe

To maximize security and prevent theft, it is highly recommended to securely mount the safe to a wall or floor using the included mounting hardware.

1. Choose a Location: Select a discreet and secure location for your safe, preferably near a structural stud or solid floor.
2. Mark Drilling Points: With the safe in its desired position, use the pre-drilled holes on the back or bottom of the safe as a template to mark the drilling points on the wall or floor.
3. Drill Pilot Holes: Drill pilot holes at the marked locations using an appropriate drill bit size for the expansion bolts.
4. Secure the Safe: Align the safe with the drilled holes. Insert the mounting screws (expansion bolts) through the safe's holes and into the wall/floor. Tighten them securely to firmly anchor the safe.
