Function Description

The Digital Floor Safe is a secure storage unit intended to protect valuables from theft.

The safe can be used as a portable unit with removable wheels or permanently mounted to a wall for enhanced security.

Usage Features

Electronic Opening: To open electronically, input the default code "159" (or a user-programmed code) on the keypad, then press the "A" key. A green light will illuminate, indicating successful code entry. The knob must be turned within 5 seconds of the green light appearing, followed by turning the handle to open the door. If the knob is not turned within this timeframe, the green light will extinguish, and the code must be re-entered.
Mechanical Opening (Override): In situations where batteries are not installed or are depleted, the safe can be opened using one of the provided override keys. The front panel of the keypad can be gently detached to reveal a key-operated lock. Insert the override key, turn it, then turn the knob and handle to open the door. It is crucial to store override keys separately and never lock them inside the safe.
Closing and Locking: To close and lock the safe, simply close the door, turn the handle, and then turn the knob in the opposite direction. Gently pull the door to ensure it is securely locked.
Changing the Code: The default code is "159-A". To change it, first open the safe. Locate the small red "reset" button on the inside of the door near the hinge. Press this button until the Yellow LED on the front panel lights up. Immediately input a new code (up to 8 characters) followed by either "A" or "B". The Yellow LED will flash to confirm the new code has been accepted. If the Yellow LED does not flash, the code has not been accepted, and the process must be restarted. It is strongly recommended to test the new combination before closing the door and to have the override key accessible when changing codes or batteries.
Mounting: For enhanced security, the safe can be bolted to a wall or other vertical surface. It features two mounting holes in the back wall. Users should mark the locations, drill suitable pilot holes (hardware not included), and then secure the safe. The manual emphasizes that the safe's weight should primarily be supported by its wheels on the floor or a strong surface, not solely by the mounting bolts.
Adjustable Shelf: The safe includes an adjustable shelf. To reposition it, remove all items, lift the sides of the shelf to disengage mounting tabs, move it to the desired location, ensure it is level, and then engage the tabs into the supports by gently pressing the shelf downward.
Removable Wheels: The safe comes with 4 removable wheels, axles, and cotter pins. To install, place the safe on its side, assemble each wheel using the included axles, and secure them with cotter pins.

Maintenance Features

Battery Installation/Replacement: The battery compartment is located on the inside of the safe door. Slide off the cover, remove old batteries, and install 4 new 'C' batteries, ensuring correct polarity. Replace the cover. After battery replacement, the code should be reset (refer to instructions on page 5).
Low Battery Warning: A red LED on the keypad will illuminate when the batteries are running low, signaling that they need immediate replacement.
Protection from Moisture: The safe should be protected from moist or wet conditions to prevent electronic faults in the keypad and corrosion of the steel.
Cleaning: Periodically wipe the safe and keypad with a soft, dry cloth or brush to remove dust.
Lubrication: Occasionally apply a small amount of light oil or lock lubricant to the mechanical lock mechanism. Care should be taken to avoid getting oil or other liquids on or near the electronic mechanism.
Wheel Maintenance: Occasionally apply a small amount of oil to the wheel axles.
Interior Cleaning: Periodically vacuum or brush dust from the carpet lining inside the safe.
