CLEANING THE LOCK

In order to properly clean the touchscreen from build-up of dirt, oils, or other contaminates; you should use a mild dish soap with warm water and follow the general rules below:

  • Do rinse the touchscreen with warm water prior to cleaning process.
  • Do follow the application of soap with a damp, lukewarm cloth
  • Don't use abrasives, high alkaline cleaners, or gasoline
  • Don't leave cleaners on touchscreen for long periods, wash immediately.
  • Don't apply cleaners in direct sunlight or at elevated temperatures.
  • Don't use scrapers, squeegees or razors.

The bolt itself can be cleaned using a mild dish soap and warm water. This can help improve decreased performance.

REPLACING THE BATTERIES

» Replace the batteries in your lock at the same time each year that you test and replace the batteries in your smoke alarms. This will ensure continued reliable operation.

Lithium Batteries?

Lithium batteries may have a longer life, but when they begin to fail, they fail quickly. We don't recommend them because they don't give you a lot of time to change your batteries before the lock is completely dead.
