❓ Troubleshooting

• The [Turnpiece] cannot rotate or operate the lock: Remove and reinstall the lock, making sure that the tailpiece is horizontal.
• The lock cannot be locked or unlocked by the keypad: Make sure the lock is programmed with at least one code and that the user codes are not disabled. If needed, perform a factory reset and enter the door handing code.
• The [Keypad] doesn't respond when touched (no lights are visible and no beeping is heard): Make sure the cables are properly connected, and make sure the [Batteries] are new and installed correctly.
• After the lock has been working normally, the latch bolt locks up and the [Turnpiece] will not rotate: Re-enter the door handing code, using your mastercode. Refer to Factory Reset steps 2 and 3.
• The door can be locked with the [Lock Button], but the user code will not unlock the door: Make sure the user code is correct and that the [Lock Button] is pushed after entering the user code. If the door still won't unlock, use a key to unlock the door. Call technical support for further troubleshooting.
• When the door is closed and the [Lock Button] is pressed to lock the door, the lock emits a system alert. When the door is open and the [Lock Button] is pressed to lock the door, there is no system alert: Make sure that the hole in the door frame behind the strike is drilled at least 1" (25 mm) deep. Also make sure the strike plate is aligned with the latch bolt. If needed, reposition the strike.

?️ Factory Reset

A factory reset will delete all codes associated with the lock, and the default mastercode (0-0-0-0) and user code (1-2-3-4) will be restored. Auto-lock will be disabled after a factory reset.

CAUTION: Replace the pre-set codes with codes of your own.

1. Make sure the door is open and unlocked. Press and hold the [Reset Button] on the interior assembly for five seconds, until you hear three ? beeps* and see the [Keypad] flash ? amber three times.
2. Enter the door handing code: [MASTERCODE] [Lock Button] "0" [Lock Button]
3. Press the [Lock Button] once. Make sure the latch bolt extends to lock.

*Beeping sound will not be heard when the lock is muted.

?️ Important Safeguards

1. Read all instructions in their entirety.
2. Familiarize yourself with all warning and caution statements.
3. Remind all family members of safety precautions.
4. Restrict access to your lock's interior assembly and routinely check your settings to ensure they have not been altered without your knowledge.
5. Protect your user codes and mastercode.
6. Dispose of used batteries according to local laws and regulations.

CAUTION: Prevent unauthorized entry. This lock has a pre-set user code and mastercode. Upon installation and set-up, replace both of these codes with your own. Since anyone with access to the interior assembly can reset the lock and change the user codes, you must restrict access to the interior assembly and routinely check the user codes to ensure they have not been altered without your knowledge.

WARNING: This Manufacturer advises that no lock can provide complete security by itself. This lock may be defeated by forcible or technical means, or evaded by entry elsewhere on the property. No lock can substitute for caution, awareness of your environment, and common sense. Builder's hardware is available in multiple performance grades to suit the application. In order to enhance security and reduce risk, you should consult a qualified locksmith or other security professional.
