Important Safeguards
1.
Read all instructions in their entirety.
2. Familiarize yourself with all warning and caution statements.
3. Remind all family members of safety precautions.
4. Protect your user codes and mastercode.
5. Dispose of used batteries according to local laws and regulations.
CAUTION: Prevent unauthorized entry. Since anyone with access to the back panel
can change the user codes, you must restrict access to the back panel and routinely
check the user codes to ensure they have not been altered without your knowledge.
The use of a mastercode can help protect your system's settings.
WARNING: This Manufacturer advises that no lock can provide complete security
by itself. This lock may be defeated by forcible or technical means, or evaded by
entry elsewhere on the property. No lock can substitute for caution, awareness of
your environment, and common sense. Builder's hardware is available in multiple
performance grades to suit the application. In order to enhance security and reduce
risk, you should consult a qualified locksmith or other security professional.

Questions and answers
I dropped my lock and it came apart, can you send me an exploded diagram so I can reassemble the unit correctly . Thank you.
Does not power up
The Kwikset SmartCode 916 may not power up due to the following reasons:
1. Battery Issues – Ensure that the 4-AA batteries are properly installed and have sufficient charge.
2. Incorrect Installation – Verify that the battery pack is securely connected.
3. Pairing Distance – If connecting to a home controller, the lock may need to be powered up within 3 to 5 feet of the controller for a secure connection.
4. Faulty Components – Check for any loose or damaged wiring inside the lock.
If the issue persists, reinsert the batteries or reset the lock.
