Note: If you depress the wrong key stem by mistake, rotate the reset cam

back toward you, (toward the key stems and release). This resets the code

gears and you must repeat the above procedure.

M-5 Clearing the Current Code and Setting a New Code

Note: Align the code gear pockets with the “L” shaped legs.

Depress the code change button (i) located on top of

the combination chamber once and release.

Rotate the reset cam (g) back toward you with your

finger (toward the key stems) as far as it will go and

release.

Enter your new combination code by depressing the

key stem corresponding to the first number (1

through 5) of your code. For example, if the new

code is 3-2-5, then you would depress 3 first, then 2

and finally 5. Record this new combination code for

future reference.

Push the shoulder (j) at the bottom of the Unlocking

slide up toward the code change button and release.

If each of the 5 “L” shaped legs of the unlocking slide engages snugly inside its

corresponding code gear pocket, then it confirms that the new code has been

successfully changed. Rotate the reset cam (g) back toward you and release.

Note: If all 5 “L” shaped legs do not align fully with their corresponding

code gear pockets, repeat the procedures M-3 and M-4.

M-6 Reinstalling chamber assembly into lock and retesting

Reinstall the 3-sided dust cover over the combination chamber with the 2

small Phillips screws removed (maybe 1 screw in newer models).

Reinstall the combination chamber assembly to the base plate with the 2

Phillips screws removed.

Reinstall the base plate on to the outside unit assembly with the 2 Phillips

screws removed. Make sure all parts have been reinstalled correctly.

Then reinstall the universal mounting plate with 2 Phillips screws removed

earlier.

M-7 Reinstall lock on door by following procedures outlined in section J of

this manual.

M-8 Retest new code with lock on door by entering the new numbers

followed by the “ENTER” button and rotating the outside lever. The lock

should open and the latch should retract.

M-4 Resetting and Recovery of Current Code

To reset the code gears (a), each one of the 5

“L” shaped legs (b) of the unlocking slide (c)

must engage snugly with the corresponding

code gear pocket (d) next to it.

Position the chamber in one hand, as shown. Hold

chamber by the top screw tab (e) and bottom screw

tab (f).

Rotate the reset cam (g) back toward you with your

finger, towards the key stems (h) as far as it will go

and then release. Now look at the code gears (a)

and the unlocking slide (c). Note that some or all 5

of the code gear pockets (d) are rotated away from the “L” shaped legs (b) as if

out of alignment. Typically each code gear pocket will be at a slightly different

distance compared to the other.

Note: Sometimes two different gear pockets are away from alignment by

exactly the same distance – this indicates that the current code uses two

different number buttons (example, 2 and 4) depressed at the same time

as part of the code combination.

Using a small flat blade screw driver or your thumbnail, depress the key stem

which corresponds to the gear pocket which has been rotated the farthest

away (out of alignment) from the “L” shaped leg. When depressed, the key

stem(s) should stay down and the corresponding gear pocket(s) should move

closer to its corresponding “L” leg, closer to alignment. Record the key stem

number. This is the first number of your combination.

Note: If two gear pockets are at the same distance, depress

both of these corresponding key stems at the same time.

Continue by pressing the key stem that corresponds to the gear pocket

that was the next furthest away (do not include gear pockets that have

already been rotated). Record each key stem number that is depressed.

Continue this procedure until all five gear pockets are aligned with their

corresponding “L” shaped legs on the unlocking slide. The combination is the

recorded numbers, in the order recorded.
