Proper Use of Your Safe

CD-ROMs, DVD-ROMs, computer & video tapes, and other media, which
start to deteriorate at 150°F (65°C). It withstands 1700°F (926°C) for 1 hour
while maintaining an interior temperature below 125°F (52°C).
Moisture Warning We recommend that you place delicate items such as
pictures or intricate jewelry into an air-tight container before storing them in
your safe. Avoid placing your safe in areas of high humidity. For optimum
performance, the safe should be opened and aired out for at least 20 minutes
every two weeks.
For the safe to perform properly:
• Store the safe on a flat surface (or, if provided, the wheeled cart).
• Do not store or place the safe upside-down or on its side.

and falling objects.
