Safe Care and Maintenance

When properly maintained, your safe will continue to operate and accurately read the authorized Passcode for many years. In order to ensure optimum performance of your safe, please follow these simple precautions:

Replace Batteries – For best results and performance, we recommend that the batteries be replaced at least once a year or sooner depending on amount of use.
Clean Hands – Never attempt to operate the digital keypad if your hands have excessive dirt, debris or liquids on them.
Clean Safe – To clean the surface of your safe, it is recommended that you use a mild cleaner (e.g., window cleaner) to avoid scratching or discoloring the surface. Always wipe dry and NEVER use abrasive cleansers on the safe or digital keypad.
Moisture – We recommend that you place delicate items such as pictures or intricate jewelry into an air-tight container before storing them in your safe. Avoid placing your safe in areas of high humidity. For optimum performance, the safe should be opened and aired out for at least 20 minutes every two weeks.

For future reference, store this Operation and Installation Guide in a secure area away from the safe. DO NOT DISCARD!
