LCD display will read “CODE”, indicating that your
personal code has been successfully programmed and

Safe Care and Maintenance
When properly maintained, your safe will continue to provide protection for
many years. In order to ensure optimum performance of your safe, please
follow these simple precautions:
Clean Hands
- Do not attempt to operate combination dial if your hands have
excessive dirt, debris, or liquids on them. Under normal circumstances, it is not
necessary to wash your hands before using the safe.
Clean Safe
– To clean the outside surface of your safe, it is recommended that
you use a mild cleaner (e.g., window cleaner) to avoid scratching or discoloring
the surface. Do not use abrasive cleansers.
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!
