Kevo-Compatible Devices
Smartphones and Smart Devices
A Kevo-compatible smartphone (or other mobile internet-connected device or
tablet) must have Bluetooth Smart Ready/ Bluetooth 4.0 and an app specific to
the device must be installed. Find out if your device is compatible at
www.kwikset.com/kevo/devices.
Kevo Fob
A Kevo Fob is a Bluetooth device that provides the same touch-to-open
convenience as a smartphone.
Additional fobs can be purchased as needed. Up to eight fobs can be enrolled
in a single Kevo lock. A single fob can be enrolled in up to 25 different Kevo
locks.
Note : You may choose to use only Kevo fobs, only smartphones or a mix of
both in your Kevo system.
Standard Key

Future Feature
Triple Touch Lock
This is a convenient feature that allows you to lock the door from the
outside without the use of a smartphone or fob.
You might use Triple Touch Lock if you are using only a standard key in your
system but wish to lock the door by touch, if your smartphone or fob is
disabled, or if you have a visitor in your home that will leave and lock the
door behind them.
Note : This feature is OFF by default. To enable it, flip Switch #2 to
the ON position, then lock or unlock the door by touching the deadbolt rose.
To lock the door with this feature, touch the deadbolt rose three times,
pausing briefly between each touch. The light ring will spin blue, flash
amber, and you will hear one beep (if switch #3 is on).
CAUTION : With this feature enabled, it is possible to lock yourself outside if you don’t have an enrolled smartphone, Kevo fob or standard key with you.
Advanced Features
Inside-Outside Sensor
The Kevo lock features a sensor that can tell if your device is inside or
outside your home to help prevent your door from being unlocked by
unauthorized users while your device is inside.
Each device in your Kevo system will automatically calibrate to enable this
sensor as of software version 1.2.3. For more information on calibration, go
to www.kwikset.com/kevo/support.
History Log
A history of the lock’s activity may be viewed through the Kevo app or by
logging into the web portal: www.mykevo.com.
Notifications
The Kevo app can send notifications when the door is locked and unlocked by
eKey holders. You can choose to receive the system’s default notifications or
set up custom notifications to monitor a specific user or time frame.
Kevo App Passcode
Kevo features an optional, added-security passcode that you can enable inside
the app to be used in addition to the app’s password. Enabling the passcode
will require you to enter a 4-digit PIN whenever you access the app, and it
protects your Kevo account against unauthorized changes when your phone is
unlocked.
Error Notifi cations
A complete audio/visual chart of all the lights and sounds in the Kevo system is available in the online Troubleshooting Guide at www.kwikset.com/kevo/support.
Blue Spinning and Shutting Off : Kevo was unable to establish a
connection with your device, or Kevo detected the device on
the inside of the door. If this happens frequently, see the online
Troubleshooting Guide.
Magenta Flash: Your device is outside of the activation range. Touch the deadbolt rose again. As of software version 1.2.3, your device will automatically calibrate so that Kevo’s inside-outside sensor adjusts to your device’s new location. You may need to touch the lock a few times for it to learn your device’s new location.
Red Flash: The lock has detected an unauthorized device within the activation range. Kevo will not unlock. If this happens frequently, see the online Troubleshooting Guide.
Top Two LEDs are Solid Red: The AA batteries in the Kevointerior are low and need to be replaced.
Bottom LED is Solid Red: The fob battery is low and needs to be replaced. See the online Troubleshooting Guide for instructions.
Side LEDs Flashing Red: The deadbolt has jammed. Check your door for
alignment and make sure the latch bolt can operate smoothly.
System Reset
WARNING : Resetting your Kevo system will restore your lock to factory
default settings and delete all smartphones and fobs from Kevo’s memory.
If you wish to perform a system reset, press and hold the Reset button on the
back panel for 10 seconds until the lock beeps and the light ring flashes red.
Phones: After a system reset, you will need to re-enroll and your Owner phone.
You will still be able to send eKeys at no charge to anyone who previously had
an active eKey at the time of reset.
Fobs: After a system reset, all fobs will need to be re-enrolled. See the
online Troubleshooting guide for instructions.
Important Safeguards
- Read all instructions in their entirety.
- Familiarize yourself with all warning and caution statements.
- Remind all family members of safety precautions.
- Always have access to your lock’s standard key.
- If using the Triple Touch Lock feature, make sure to have your smartphone, fob or standard key with you to prevent locking yourself out.
- Familiarize yourself with all light ring error notifi cations.
- Replace low batteries immediately.
Preventing Inadvertent Unlocking of Your Door
WARNING : Failure to follow these safeguards could result in your lock opening inadvertently.
- Avoid keeping and storing phones and fobs unnecessarily close to the lock when inside the home.
- Restrict access to your Kevo lock’s back panel and routinely check your settings to ensure they have not been altered without your knowledge.
- Protect the password to your Kevo app and web portal accounts.
- When sending an eKey, always double-check that you are sending it to the correct recipient.
- Protect and restrict access to your smartphone so that your app settings cannot be altered without your knowledge.
- Enable the Kevo app’s security passcode so that your app settings cannot be altered without your knowledge.
- When sending eKeys, be aware of the difference between an Admin user and other users in the system: an Admin user can send, disable and delete eKeys.
- If your smartphone is lost or stolen, use the Kevo web portal (www.mykevo.com) to disable it.
- If a fob in your Kevo system is lost or stolen, reset your lock to delete it from memory.
CAUTION : Prevent unauthorized entry. Because anyone with access to the back panel can change your Kevo lock’s settings, you must restrict access to the back panel and routinely check your settings to ensure they have not been altered without your knowledge.
CAUTION : As with any radio-based technology, it should be noted that the
accuracy and reliability of the Kevo lock’s inside-outside sensor cannot be
guaranteed. Users should not rely solely on the Kevo lock’s sensor for
security purposes and should always use caution. Kwikset assumes no
responsibility for incorrect results or damages resulting from the use of the
Kevo lock’s sensor.
Certain home configurations may impede the Kevo lock’s sensor more than
others. Example: Your home office is located next to your entryway, and part
of the office extends past the front door, jutting into the front yard. If
your device is being actively used in that office extension, the Kevo lock’s
sensor could possibly detect the device as being outside of your home while
that device is in active use.
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.
