Opening & Closing Your Safe

Opening The First Time
The dial is preset to the fourth (last) number in the combination. The safe door should open when you insert the Companion Entry Key (round top), turn to the right and pull the door open. The dial may move in transit, making it necessary to dial the combination before opening the first time We recommend trying the following combination procedure with safe door open first.

Your Combination
The combination for your safe can be found imprinted on the inside back cover of this Operation and Installation Guide. It is a pre-set 4 number sequence that is unique to your safe and cannot be changed. It is recommended that you keep this Operation and Installation Guide in a secure place. NEVER store this Guide inside the safe.

Opening Safe with Combination Dial
1. Turn the dial LEFT (counter clockwise) three times to clear prior settings.
2. Begin by placing dial on 0 (zero).
3. Turn the dial LEFT, passing the first combination number FOUR (4) times and stop at the number on the fifth time around.
4. Turn the dial RIGHT, passing the second combination number TWO (2) times and stop at the number on the third time around.
5. Turn the dial LEFT, passing the third combination number ONE (1) time and stop at the number on the second time around.
6. Turn the dial RIGHT and STOP on the fourth combination number.
7. Insert the Entry Key into the key lock, turn to the right, and pull the door open.

Closing & Locking The Safe
1. When open, the key is turned right (the unlocked position).
2. Close the safe door and turn the key to the left.
3. Remove the key and spin the combination dial twice.

Frequent Key-Only Access
When circumstances require frequent, quick and convenient access for limited periods during the day, you may choose to keep the commbination positioned on the last number and lock only the keylock. However, the safe is not fully locked until spinning the dial.

Important: REDUCED LEVEL OF SECURITY
The safe is ONLY FULLY LOCKED after turning key to the locked position and spinning the dial. For your security, we recommend always locking both the combination dial and key lock for the highest level of protection & security.

Additional Features: Removable Shelves

Shelves
Removable Shelf (Model 2054F only)
To remove the shelf, simply lift it up and tilt it on a sufficient angle to provide clearance for removal.

Adjustable & Removable Shelves (Model 2084F)
These models are designed with 5 position adjustable shelves to allow greater flexibility and further accommodate your particular security storage needs.

Important: REMOVING SHELF
If you remove the shelf, it is strongly recommended that you DO NOT DISCARD it. You may lay the shelf flat in the bottom of the safe to assure full flexibility in the future.

Additional Features: Bolt-Down Kit

Model 2054F (only)

Installing Your Safe
Certain models include a Bolt-Down kit with break-off bolts and a mounting template for permanent mounting to a flat surface. Once the safe is installed using the break-off bolts, it is permanent and cannot be easily removed.

Important: SECURING TO FLOOR
Many consumers prefer to bolt their safe to the floor to increase protection from theft and resistance to tipping.
If your safe was manufactured with bolt down holes pre-drilled in the floor of the safe, bolting your safe to the floor may provide additional theft deterrence.
If you have ANY QUESTIONS about how to accomplish this, or are uncomfortable using the tools necessary to complete this project, please check with your local retailer, home center, or independent contractor

Consumer Affairs

Your Safe’s Unique Identification Numbers
When contacting Consumer Affairs, you should be prepared to supply some important information that specifically identifies your safe. This information is
extremely important to assuring prompt and accurate customer assistance.

It is strongly recommended that you identify and record the following information in the “Safe Identification Record” form located on the inside back cover of this manual:
Model Number
Serial Number
Key Number

Locating Model and Serial Numbers
Most First Alert® safes include a small metallic silver or gray tag affixed to one of the surfaces. This tag is usually located on the front or right side of the safe. This tag contains the Serial Number, and on selected models a similar tag is attached containing the Model Number. If a Model Number tag is not attached to the safe, then it can be located on the front or side panel of the box that the safe was packaged in. Write this number down for future reference.

Key Number
The Key Number is located on the key. If you do not have the key, the number is also imprinted on the Emergency Override Key lock. See Emergency Override Key, page 3, for instructions on locating this lock.

Important: DO NOT REMOVE TAGS!
In case your safe becomes inoperable or you lose your keys, these identification numbers will be needed to correct the problem. It is recommended that the number tags remain in place on the safe. If removal is necessary, then they should be attached to the inside back cover of the Operation and Installation Guide. Store in a safe and secure place for future reference.
