How to Set Your Combination Lock

Hi there. Today I’ll explain how to set your combination.

Step 1: Open the Safe with Your Current Code

1. Start with the door closed and locked.
2. Turn the knob left (counterclockwise) to clear out any previously pressed buttons.
3. Enter your current combination (either the factory code or your existing code).
4. Turn the knob right (clockwise) to unlock and open the door.

Step 2: Prepare to Set a New Code

1. With the door open, turn the knob left (counterclockwise) to re-lock the mechanism (door remains open).
2. Enter your current code again, but do not turn the knob.
3. Locate the small tab on the bottom of the lock (inside the door).
4. Push the tab upward and press it into place until you hear a click. This clears out the old combination.

Step 3: Set Your New Code

1. Go back to the outside keypad.
2. Turn the knob left (counterclockwise) to reset.
3. Enter your new code (example: 1-2-3-4-5) by pressing the buttons in sequence.
4. Turn the knob right (clockwise) to lock in the new code.
5. Turn the knob back left (counterclockwise) to reset.

Step 4: Test the New Code

1. Enter your new code and turn the knob right (clockwise) to confirm it unlocks.
2. Repeat the process several times to ensure it works consistently.
3. Close and lock the door, then test the code again to verify it’s fully functional.

Pro Tip: Practice Your New Code

• Enter the new code several times on the first day to build muscle memory.
• Try it again the next day, and repeat regularly during the first week.
• The goal is to make the sequence second nature so you can access your safe quickly in an emergency.
