- When the correct buttons of the combination have been depressed, the turn
knob must rotate 90° to the right (clockwise) to the stop position without
restriction.
- When the turn knob is at the 90° position (vertical), the exit device latch
should be completely retracted and the combination buttons will have
automatically reactivated for the next entry.
