Using the mechanical key
Take out the mechanical key.
The mechanical key can only be
inserted in one direction, as the
key only has grooves on one
side. If the key cannot be
inserted in a lock cylinder, turn
it over and re-attempt to insert
it.
After using the mechanical key,
store it in the electronic key.
Carry the mechanical key
together with the electronic key.
If the electronic key battery is
depleted or the entry function
does not operate properly, you
will need the mechanical key.
