Programming a Personal Passcode
For security reasons, it is very important that you program
your own personal Passcode into the digital lock. The factory
Passcode 159 should be changed immediately.
To program your own unique 3-8 digit Passcode, follow these
steps:
1. Open the protective cover on the front of the safe to expose
the keypad.
2. With the safe in the open position, press in on the small
reset button located on the inside top edge of the door.
NOTE: After pressing the reset button, the red and green
lights on the keypad will flash to indicate the programming
is authorized and you have 10 seconds to begin.
3. Enter your new 3-8 digit Passcode followed by the # Key.
Immediately repeat the sequence, beginning with the new
Passcode followed by the # Key.
4. The green light will light up solid, indicating your new
Passcode has been successfully entered.
5. Your new Passcode will now be comprised of the 3-8 digit
sequence you selected, always followed by the # sign. The
factory pre-set Passcode will no longer open the safe.
6. You may change your Passcode at any time by repeating
the same steps.
7. It is important that you write down your personal Passcode
and secure it in a safe location away from the safe.
NOTE: If you forget your personal Passcode, access to the
safe can be made using the Emergency Override Key.

Appropriate Use of Your Safe
Honeywell Waterproof Fire Theft Safes™ protect records and many other valuables.
Testing shows that the interior temperature of the safe remains below 350°F
(177°C) for 1 hour during a fire up to 1700°F (927°C) when used properly. Your
safe must be closed and latched in order to properly protect the contents from fire.
Safe Care and Maintenance
When properly maintained, your safe will continue to operate and accurately
read the authorized Passcode for many years. In order to ensure optimum
performance of your safe, please follow these simple precautions:
Replace Batteries
– For best results and performance, we recommend that the
batteries be replaced at least once a year or sooner depending on amount of
use.
Clean Hands
- Never attempt to operate the digital keypad if your hands have
excessive dirt, debris or liquids on them.
Clean Safe
– To clean the surface of your safe, it is recommended that you
use a mild cleaner (e.g., window cleaner) to avoid scratching or discoloring
the surface. Always wipe dry and NEVER use abrasive cleansers on the safe or
digital keypad.
Moisture
– If the safe is stored in an area of high moisture content (such as near
the ocean or in a tropical climate), moisture from the environment may become
trapped inside the safe. If this applies to you, open the safe on a regular basis to
promote air circulation.
For future reference, store this Operation and Installation Guide in a secure area
away from the safe. DO NOT DISCARD!
