Tips for fingerprint
programming and usage
Best finger for programming
• Do not choose a finger with a cut or scar.
• Choose a finger with the tightest swirl pattern.
Swiping fingerprints
• When swiping, keep your finger flat against the
fingerprint sensor.
• Swipe in a downward motion using a consistent medium speed.
• Use a medium pressure on the sensor. Too firm or too light
will not read correctly.
• Also note where you are standing in relation to the safe.
Programming or usage at a different angle will not work well.
Skin condition
• If you have dirt on your hands, please wash them before using
the safe.
• Very dry skin will not program well. Use a skin moisturizer,
being sure to rub the moisturizer in well and remove any
excess before using the safe.
Environmental conditions
• The electronics may not work or may have a slow reaction time
in cold temperatures (50°F or less). Make sure that the safe is
at room temperature before programming and usage.
Cleaning the sensor
• For optimal accuracy and fingerprint-reading success, clean
the electronic case and fingerprint sensor periodically with a
dry, lint-free cloth.
