   (See Override Key Instructions)
   
   After entering your secret combination, you have 5 seconds to pull the chrome handle before the mechanism relocks. If it relocks, enter your combination again.

To change batteries:

Open the safe door with your combination and pull the chrome handle. Remove the sliding battery cover plate on the back of the door. Once inside, batteries are revealed.

Replace the weak batteries and reverse the procedure.

CAUTION: Be careful not to damage the wiring in the safe while removing the batteries.

Battery Replacement Warning:

If the batteries are low, a RED light will warn you immediately! To test the batteries, just press “B”. The RED light will start to flash immediately if the batteries are low. If nothing happens, it means that the batteries are OK. When the electronic system signals that the batteries should be changed, you have approximately (1) one to (2) two months of service before the batteries are dead.

Key Override Instructions to open the safe:

For your convenience, there is a manual key override system provided on your safe. If you forget or misplace your combination, remove the round plastic cover located below or across from the keypad. Behind the plate you will find a key lock. Insert the chrome key and turn it to the left (counter-clockwise) and hold while pulling the chrome handle. This will manually open your safe at any time.

This may also be used to open the safe if the batteries have gone totally dead.

Note: Be sure the chrome handle is in the fully closed position. If the handle is pulled up before the combination is completely entered, the mechanism will not release and the door can not be opened.
