Орнотуу: Комбинацияңызды орнотуу
The Kidde AccessPoint KeySafe allows you to set your own three-letter combination. This process requires careful attention to detail.
- Open the KeySafe: If the KeySafe is new, it may come with a factory-set combination (e.g., S-P-I). Use this combination to open the unit first. Refer to the "Operating" section for how to open the lock box.
- Access the Combination Mechanism: Once the KeySafe is open, you will need a Phillips head screwdriver. Locate the two screws on the back of the dial assembly (the part that detaches when opened). Carefully remove these two screws.
- Disassemble for Combination Change: With the screws removed, gently separate the back plate from the dial mechanism. You will see a series of small rings or discs inside. These rings correspond to the letters of the combination.
- Set Your Desired Combination: Align the internal rings to your chosen three-letter combination. Ensure each ring is precisely set to the desired letter. It is crucial to ensure that the grooves on the top two combination discs do not align with each other, as this can create a potential vulnerability.
- Reassemble the Mechanism: Carefully place the back plate back onto the dial mechanism, ensuring all components are correctly seated. Reinsert and tighten the two Phillips head screws.
- Жаңы айкалыштыруу: Before closing the KeySafe with keys inside, test your new combination several times to ensure it opens correctly. If it does not open, repeat the combination setting steps.
Маанилүү: Write down your new combination and store it in a secure, memorable location. Do not store the combination inside the KeySafe.

Operating the KeySafe
Follow these steps to open and close your Kidde AccessPoint KeySafe:

- Enter Third Letter: Turn the dial back to the right (clockwise) until the final letter of your combination aligns with the indicator mark.

- Close the KeySafe: Realign the dial assembly/front door with the main body of the lock box. Manually press up on the door release button (or ensure it clicks into place) to relock the unit. Spin the dial to scramble the combination, securing the KeySafe.
