- Yellow Light: Indicates programming mode (when setting a new password).
- Red Light: Indicates incorrect password entry or low battery.
5.4. Automatic Lock and Alarm
For enhanced security, the safe will automatically lock and may trigger an alarm after three consecutive incorrect password attempts. To reset, use the emergency key to open the safe, or wait for a short period (e.g., 5 minutes) before attempting to enter the password again.
6. Maintenance
6.1. Cleaning
Wipe the exterior of the safe with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the finish. Ensure the keypad and lock mechanism are kept clean and free of debris.
6.2. Battery Replacement
When the red indicator light illuminates during password entry, it signifies low battery power. Replace the batteries promptly to ensure continued operation. Follow the battery installation steps in Section 4.2.
6.3. Rust Prevention
The safe features a robust full steel structure with a rust-resistant plastic spray coating for long-lasting durability. To maintain this protection, avoid placing the safe in excessively humid environments or where it may come into contact with corrosive substances.
