1. Prepare the Door and Check Dimensions

If drilling a new door, use the supplied template and the complete door drilling instructions available at www.kwikset.com/doorprep.

A. Measure Door Hole Diameter: Confirm that the hole in the door is 2-1/8" (54 mm).

B. Measure Backset: Confirm that the backset is either 2-3/8" or 2-3/4" (60 or 70 mm).

C. Measure Edge Bore Diameter: Confirm that the hole in the door edge is 1" (25 mm).

D. Measure Door Thickness: Confirm that the door is between 1-3/8" and 1-3/4" (35 mm and 44 mm) thick.

*If you are installing this lever below an existing lock or plan to install a lock above this lever, ensure the distance between holes is at least 6-1/2" (165 mm).

2. Install the Latch and Strike

A. Position Latch: Hold the latch in front of the door hole, with the latch face flush against the door edge.

B. Center Latch Hole: Is the semi-circular hole of the latch centered in the door hole?

• YES: No adjustment is required. Proceed to the next step.
• NO: Move the pin to extend the latch. [Diagram shows moving a pin to extend the latch.]

C. Chiseled Door Edge: Is the door edge chiseled?

• YES (Chiseled): Ensure the slanting side of the latch bolt faces the door frame. [Diagram shows latch bolt oriented correctly for a chiseled edge.]
• NO (Not Chiseled): Ensure the slanting side of the latch bolt faces the door frame. [Diagram shows latch bolt oriented correctly for a non-chiseled edge.]

D. Install Strike: Install the strike on the door frame using screws (P, 2x).

3. Install the Exterior Keypad, Mounting Plate, and Spindle

A. Install Exterior Keypad: The cable goes over the latch.

B. Route Cable: Route the cable through the mounting plate.

C. Secure Mounting Plate: Secure the mounting plate with supplied screws (T, 2x), keeping it parallel to the edge of the door. Tighten screws evenly.

D. Install Spindle: Install the spindle (F2), ensuring the rounded edge faces the latch.

4. Install Interior Assembly

A. Remove Battery Pack: Remove the battery cover (M) and battery pack (K) from the interior assembly.

B. Install Interior Assembly:

• a. Connect Cable: Connect the cable (L) to the interior assembly. Ensure a tight cable connection.
• b. Install Battery Pack: Install the battery pack (K) into the interior assembly.
• c. Push Assembly On: Push the interior assembly onto the mounting plate. Push excess cable back into the door as you install. The turnbutton may need to be turned to install.
• d. Secure Assembly: Secure with screws (U, 2x).

IMPORTANT: Ensure correct polarity. For best results, use new, non-rechargeable Alkaline batteries only. Do not install the battery pack into the interior assembly yet.

5. Install Levers

A. Install Interior Lever: The lever handle faces away from the latch. Use Y1 or Y2.

B. Secure Interior Lever: Tighten the pre-installed set screw (Z).

C. Install Exterior Lever: The lever handle faces away from the latch. Use Y1 or Y2.

D. Secure Exterior Lever: Tighten the pre-installed set screw (Z).

6. Test Latch Operation

Close the door and test latch operation. Make adjustments as needed:

• The small bolt of the latch should not enter the strike hole. If it enters the strike hole, reposition the strike. [Diagram shows correct latch bolt position vs. incorrect.]
• If the latch is loose in the strike, adjust the strike tab so it grips the latch bolt better when the door is closed. [Diagram shows adjusting strike tab.]

7. Add the Lock to Your Smart Home System

A. Initiate Pairing: Initiate the process to add the lock to your system at your smart home controller. Refer to your smart home system instructions for more information.

B. Enter Add Mode: When prompted by your smart home system to add the lock, press button "A" on the lock interior one time. The red LED will illuminate when the lock enters Add Mode.

C. Rename Lock: If successful, re-name the lock in your system (if applicable).

D. Unsuccessful Pairing: If unsuccessful, follow your system's instructions to remove the lock from the controller and any other network, then press button "A" on the lock one time. Perform steps 7A-7C again. If still unsuccessful, consult the Programming and Troubleshooting Guide on the SmartCode 912 page at www.kwikset.com.

Please allow time for the controller to add the lock.

8. Add User Codes (30 max)

Note: It is recommended that you add and delete all user codes through your smart home control system. If your system does not allow this, codes may be added directly to the lock as shown here.

A. Prepare for Programming: Make sure the door is open. Press the Program button the number of times that corresponds to the user code position being programmed. (Example: If programming the third code, press the button three times.)

B. Enter User Code: Enter user code. A total of 30 user codes may be programmed. Each user code must be a unique code between 4 and 8 digits, depending on your smart home system.

C. Lock Door: Press Lock button once.

Programming Timeout: If no button is pressed for 5 seconds, the system will time out and you will need to restart the procedure.

D. Lights and Sounds:

• One green flash with one beep: Programming was successful. Make sure the user code is not a duplicate and that it is between 4 and 8 digits during your next attempt.
• Three red flashes with three beeps: Programming was unsuccessful.
• Two beeps: Programming time out. Make sure not to pause for more than 5 seconds during programming.

*Beeping sound will only be heard if switch #3 (on the lock interior) is in the on position. See "Switches and Status LED Colors" on page 4.

Mastercode: For enhanced security, a mastercode may be used when adding and deleting user codes. For more information, download the Programming and Troubleshooting Guide on the SmartCode 912 page at www.kwikset.com.

Confirm that the code(s) added in the previous step can unlock the door.

Locking the Door: Press Lock button once.

Unlocking the Door: Enter user code. Tip: You can press the Lock button before entering your user code to light up the keypad at night.

10. Re-key the Lock (if needed) and Install the Battery Cover

A. Re-key the Lock:

Deleting a User Code

In order to delete a user code, you must override the code by adding a different user code in the same position. For example, if you want to delete the third code, add a different user code in position three.

A. Test Old Code: Test the old user code to make sure it can no longer unlock the door.

If you cannot remember the user code position, you may wish to perform a factory reset to delete all codes associated with the lock.

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. Protect your user codes and mastercode.
5. Dispose of used batteries according to local laws and regulations.

CAUTION: Prevent unauthorized entry. Since anyone with access to the back panel can change the user codes, you must restrict access to the back panel and routinely check the user codes to ensure they have not been altered without your knowledge. The use of a mastercode can help protect your system's settings.

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.
