Gain entry with the fingerprint lock
For safes with a fingerprint lock

IMPORTANT

For some fingerprint locks
NOTE: Some models with a fingerprint lock are shipped with
a screw in the back of the door (Fig. H). This temporary screw
keeps the handle from turning and locking the safe before you
are ready to use it. Once your safe is delivered, remove this screw
and throw it away (Fig. I). After removing the lock out screw, it
may be required to push the bolt button which, in turn, will throw
the bolts to a locked position while the door is open (Fig. J).
The handle should be all the way UP, in the horizontal
position before attempting to program your safe. Your
finger-print lock is now ready to use. You will find your safes
factory combina tion on the sticker on the front of the
owner's manual.

Tips for fingerprint
programming and usage
Best finger for programming
• Do not choose a finger with a cut or scar.
• Do not choose a finger with excessively long fingernails.
• Choose a finger with the tightest swirl pattern.
Finger placement
• Place your finger on the sensor in a direct manner. Do not slide
or roll your finger onto the sensor.
• Do not move your finger off of the sensor until the lights
around the sensor turn off.
• Any trembling or shaky movement of the finger will result in an
inaccurate reading.
• Use a medium pressure on the sensor. Too firm or too light
will not read correctly.
Location of finger on the sensor
• Look to see where the swirl part of your fingerprint is on
your finger.
• Place the swirl part of your fingerprint on the sensor.
• With your finger on the sensor, note the position of your
fingernail in relation to the sensor crosshairs. Repeatable
placement of the finger is important in programming and usage
of the safe.
• 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.
NOTE: Should you choose not to enter your fingerprint
scan at the first use, it can be entered at a later
date. The original Factory Code is necessary to
continue at that later date.
NOTE: The fingerprint lock stores one manager and up
to six (6) users. The manager and each user is
encouraged to program two fingers, preferably
one finger from each hand.
1. To store your first fingerprint, place one finger on the sensor
and follow prompts as they appear on the LCD screen.
(Fig. K) Three accurate reads of the fingerprint are necessary
for successful enrollment. Remember how you place your
finger on the sensor and try to position it in the same place
each time.
2. After successful enrollment of the first finger, to store the
second fingerprint, press the number 2 and repeat Step 1
using a different finger, preferably one from the other hand.
You may enroll additional users at this time or at a later date.
