Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Padlock does not unlock with fingerprint. | Finger not placed correctly; unregistered fingerprint; dirty sensor. | Ensure your finger covers the sensor completely. Try different angles. Verify the fingerprint is registered in the app. Clean the sensor with a soft cloth. |
| Padlock does not respond to app commands. | Bluetooth disconnected; low padlock battery; app not updated. | Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your phone and the padlock is within range. Check padlock battery level and charge if necessary. Update the eSmartLock app to the latest version. |
| Padlock battery drains quickly. | Frequent unlocking; extreme temperatures. | While designed for long life, very frequent use will reduce battery life. Ensure the padlock is not exposed to extreme temperatures for prolonged periods. |
| Cannot enter passcode. | Incorrect passcode; keypad unresponsive. | Double-check the passcode. Ensure the keypad is clean and free of obstructions. If unresponsive, try unlocking via app or mechanical key and then check keypad functionality. |
| Padlock is completely unresponsive. | Battery completely depleted; internal malfunction. | Attempt to charge the padlock for at least 30 minutes. If still unresponsive, use the mechanical backup keys. Contact customer support if the issue persists. |
