3. Configuració

3.1 Desembalatge i col·locació

Carefully remove the safe from its packaging. Due to its weight (approximately 55 lbs), it is recommended to have assistance during unboxing and placement. Choose a suitable location for your safe, ensuring it is on a stable, level surface. Consider placing it in an area where it is less likely to be affected by falling debris in the event of structural collapse during a fire, such as a basement.

3.2 Bolt-Down Installation (Optional)

The safe includes a bolt-down kit for securing it to the floor or a wall. This feature enhances security against theft. The newly designed bolt-down kit maintains the integrity of the safe's water protection. Follow the instructions provided in the separate bolt-down kit manual for proper installation. Ensure the chosen surface can support the safe's weight and the force of bolting.

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and proper functioning of your SentrySafe. Keep the exterior of the safe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Periodically check the door seal for any signs of wear or damage to maintain its waterproof integrity. If the dial mechanism feels stiff, a small amount of lubricant can be applied to the moving parts, as suggested by some users, but always consult SentrySafe support if unsure.

6. Solució De Problemes

If the safe door does not close or lock correctly, ensure no items are obstructing the door or the locking bolts. Check that the handle is fully engaged. Sometimes, the locking mechanism may require lubrication. Apply a small amount of a suitable lubricant to the bolts and latch mechanism. If the issue persists, contact SentrySafe customer support.
