Vecta Personal Safe™
1. PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
1.1 Install the batteries
1) If the safe is locked, open the safe using one of the entry codes
or the manual override key (Follow instructions in section 4.1
“Opening the Safe” or 4.4 “Using the manual override key”).
2) If the tray is in place, remove it from the bottom of the safe
and remove the battery compartment cover located inside and
at the base of the safe [Fig. 1].
3) Place the 4 x AA batteries (supplied) as shown in [Fig.2].
Once the batteries are installed, close the battery
compartment lid.
4) When batteries need changing the display will show “
Lo batt
”
together with a warning sound when the safe is opened.
5) When new batteries are installed the sound function is reset
to the default setting (
beep On
) but the User Code and
Administrator Code are not reset.
1.2 Testing the Vecta Personal Safe™
Before installing the Personal Safe, please ensure you have all the box contents as detailed above, and
test the Personal Safe will operate correctly by following these instructions:
•
Always test with the batteries installed and the safe door held open to ensure you do not get
locked out of the Personal Safe.
•
With the door held open press the key and the bolts should slide into the locked position.
Test the User Code by entering the preset User Code (“
1234
”) on the keypad, and the bolts
should retract.
•
Press the key again to slide the bolts into the locked position. This time test the
Administration Code by entering the preset Administrator Code (“
0000
”) and, again, the bolts
should retract.
•
Finally, press the key again to slide the bolts into the locked position but this time remove
the magnetic Vecta logo on the front of the Personal Safe and use the manual override keys
(turned clockwise) to retract the bolts. After opening the safe using the Override Key it must be
closed by pressing the key again and unlocked using the preset User or Administrator Code.
IMPORTANT
Please read the following instructions carefully before installing your Vecta Personal Safe™.
The Vecta Personal Safe™ comes pre-programmed with two codes preset into the safe - an
Administrator Code (preset “0000”) and the User Code (preset “1234”).
As both these codes can be used to open the safe, for security reasons BOTH CODES SHOULD BE
CHANGED IMMEDIATELY UPON INSTALLING THE SAFE.
Instructions for changing the codes are described in section 3.1 (setting Administrator Code) and
section 3.2 (setting User Code)
NB
With the safe tested, it is recommended that the Administrator Code is changed as detailed in 3.1
and a note of the new Administrator Code is recorded on the Code Protector Card provided.
The number on the barrel of the Override Key should also be recorded in case a replacement key is
required in the future.
