6.3 Alarm System

The safe is equipped with an alarm system for enhanced security:

• One-Click Alarm: Pressing the '#' key on the keypad can activate an alarm state, causing the gun cabinet to vibrate and sound an alert.
• Low Battery Alert: When the battery is low, the keypad will indicate this (e.g., a 'LOW.VOLT' light). Replace batteries promptly.
