   For the first use, remove the small plastic cover (B) on the front panel. Insert the key into the keyhole and turn it counterclockwise. Simultaneously, turn the doorknob (A) clockwise to open the safe.

2. Installing the Batteries

   The safe requires 4 x AA (1.5V) batteries. Open the safe, push the battery cover plate (D) on the back of the door and install the batteries, ensuring correct polarity. Alkaline batteries are recommended.

3. Programming the Code

   1. With the safe door open, press the red button (C) on the back of the door near the hinge. Release it; you will hear two beeps, and the yellow light will turn on.
   2. Within 15 seconds, press 3 to 8 numbers for your desired combination and confirm by pressing 'A' or 'B'. The safe will beep twice, the yellow light will turn off, and your personal code is set.
   3. Write down your new combination immediately and test it with the door open to ensure it is programmed correctly. Alkaline batteries are recommended.

4. Using Your Safe

   To open the safe, enter your personal code followed by 'A' or 'B'. You will hear a beep, and the green light will turn on. Turn the doorknob clockwise within 5 seconds to open the door.

   If an incorrect code is entered 3 times consecutively, wait 20 seconds before retrying. If entered incorrectly 3 more times, wait approximately 5 minutes before attempting access again.

5. Battery Replacement Warning

   A red light on the number panel indicates low batteries. To test, enter your personal code. If the red light appears, the batteries need replacement. If nothing happens, the batteries are likely in order.

8. Installing the Safe

   To reduce the risk of theft, the safe can be secured to a floor, wall, or cupboard using the pre-drilled holes (8mm diameter) on the back and bottom. Use expansion bolts for fixing.
