Battery Operation
Your safe uses a 3.7V 18650 rechargeable lithium-ion with a flat top. A minimum
2000 mAh capacity is required, however 2200 mAh or higher can be used to
increase operation time. A high capacity battery upgrade is available as an
accessory through our website.
Battery Installation
To get started open the safe using one of your backup keys via the keyhole at the
back of the safe. Open keyhole cover, push key in and rotate key clockwise to open
the safe.
Locate the battery door and open by depressing the tab near the front of the cover,
allowing the door to fold down (Figure A/B).
Snap the battery (included in accessory box) into the battery door (Figure B/C). The
battery door has molded snaps for the battery to clip into. Note that your Vaultek
safe automatically detects the polarity of the battery and can be snapped in either
direction.
TIP! Make sure to push battery to back of the battery door allowing the door to
close properly.
Close the battery door. When the battery door is closed you will hear a short
welcome tone and the keypad will light up.
IMPORTANT: First time users should change the default code immediately after
installing the battery to prevent unauthorized access to your safe.

Charging the Battery
Your Vaultek
safe is powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery and comes with a charging kit which includes
®
an AC power adapter and a micro-USB cable. Safe and micro-USB cable can be used with all international power
adapters. Under normal usage, a fully charged battery can last at least 3 months.
To recharge the safe, plug the micro-USB cable into the micro-USB receiving jack located on the back side of
the safe (Figure D) and connect to a standard USB port or wall outlet using the AC power adapter. Approximate
recharge time is 2.5 hours.
The LED next to the receiving jack on the back of the safe (Figure D) will glow RED indicating charging and GREEN
indicating charged.
Charging TIPS
After installing the battery, use the charging kit provided to charge the unit 100%.
The charging kit can also function as an external power supply, which means you
can open your safe even when the battery is depleted.
Leaving your safe plugged in continually will not harm the safe or battery. However,
to preserve battery life we suggest that you unplug occasionally to allow the battery
to cycle down.
A specially designed Vaultek powerpack is available as a separate accessory to
extend operation time.
The adapter used to charge the battery should output 5V/2000mA or above when using micro-USB cable.
See the FAQ section for additional information about the battery.
