PROTEX WALL SAFE

Model: PWS-1814E

REV.030209

If the batteries are running low the LED display will give you a warning by showing 
LO-BAT on the display. Please replace with high quality Alkaline batteries like 
Duracell or Energizer. Battery compartment is located in the back of the door,
 just slide the black cover to expose the batteries.
THE SAFE WILL KEEP YOUR CODES IN MEMORY 
FOR UP TO 6 MONTHS WITHOUT ANY POWER.

If an incorrect code is entered 3 or more consecutive times, the safe will go into 
a lockout mode for 15 minutes. This is a security feature in case someone is 
trying to manipulate the lock by entering random numbers.  
During this period there will be no response from the keypad and the display 
will show “HOLD + the countdown timer. After 15 minutes without interrupting 
the keypad, the lock will go back to it's normal state.

You can hide the your personal code so it will not show on the LED display. 
(It is usually used if someone is looking over your back to spy on your code).
To do so; press the star (*) key two times then press #.  Now you can enter 
your code and the display will only show squares     instead of numbers.

We recommend hiring a contractor or a handyman to install 
the safe in your home or office.

Installation Steps:

1. Locate an interior wall that you would know for sure that there are no pipes 
running inside. Make sure there is no bathroom or a shower on the other 
side of that wall.
2. Using a Stud Finder, locate a good location between two wall studs at approx. 
the height of your eyes.
3. Using a level and a measuring tape, draw a rectangular of 18” high x 14” wide. 
(to make sure, measure the size of the back of the safe and make the rectangular 
about a ¼” larger to have some play).
4. Using a hand held drywall saw, cut the dry wall according to the marking. 
DO NOT USE AN ELECTRIC SAW.
5. Remove the drywall cutout and make sure there are no interference
 inside the wall to install the safe
6. Insert the safe into the wall and install to the wall studs from the inside 
of the safe using the lag bolts provided. It is recommended to drill pilot holes 
for bolts.

Tip:

You can always use the star (*) key to delete the last digit. 
Just like a Backspace button on your computer.
