Mounting Tips:
- The safe may be mounted to a wall or the inside of a cabinet or on the floor.

- Mark the surface to drill holes for the anchors you will be using.
- Drill the appropriate size holes for the anchors you are using.
- Having someone hold the unit, anchor the safe to the wall.
- Test the strength of the mounted safe so it will not fall off of the wall or cabinet.
- DO NOT place safe on a shelf without proper mounting into a wall.
TESTING AND REPLACING THE BATTERIES
Test battery level:
Test battery level can be tested either with the door open or with the door closed and locked.

Replacing the Batteries:
- Open the Safe using your personal code or magnetic strip card or, if the batteries are dead, use the Emergency Override key.
- Remove the battery cover on the back panel by unscrewing the Phillips screw.
Visual Description: An illustration shows the rear panel of the safe with a battery compartment cover. A Phillips screw is visible, indicating how to access the batteries.
- Remove the used 4 batteries.

EMERGENCY OVERRIDE KEY
- Using the supplied Allen key, unscrew one of the screws holding the Godrej plate and rotate to expose the key cylinder.
- Using one of the override keys, insert into the cylinder and turn clockwise to open the safe.
- While the door is open and the key is still turned, follow the directions to set your PIN.
Note: When you set the new PIN, the key will rotate to the locked position. If you get an error message, wait until the motor stops moving and then turn the key back to the locked position and remove it. Your new PIN will still remain.
WARNING:
Keep the override keys in a safe place other than inside this safe. These keys are to be used in emergencies when your PIN is lost or the keypad malfunctions.
Visual Description: An image shows the Godrej logo plate on the safe's door. An Allen key is depicted being used to unscrew a part of the plate to reveal the emergency key cylinder. An override key is shown being inserted into the cylinder.
ERROR MESSAGES
Listed below are error codes you might encounter:
- ERROR: This means that you have pressed an incorrect PIN. Verify your PIN and try again. If you get this error 4 times in a row, the keypad will lock out for 15 minutes.
- HOLD15: This means you have entered the lockout period. No PIN will function until the 15 minutes is up. By pressing any key during this period, you can see how much time is left until the lockout is over. If your PIN still doesn't work, use the override keys to reset the safe.
- ERROR1: This means that the bolts failed to retract fully. Try pressing the door in as you press your PIN. If you still cannot open your safe, contact your distributor.
- ERROR2: This could also mean that the bolts failed to extend fully, most likely because the safe is too full. Press on the door to close it fully while pressing your PIN. If you still cannot lock your safe, contact your distributor.
Visual Description: Visual representations of the safe's digital display show different error messages: 'ERROR' with accompanying text explaining incorrect PIN entry; 'HOLD15' indicating a lockout period; 'ERROR1' for retracted bolt issues; and 'ERROR2' for extended bolt issues.
