Changing the code on your Masterlock key safe is a straightforward process. Here's how to do it, based on the official Masterlock instructions:
Steps to Change Your Masterlock Key Safe Code
Here's a step-by-step guide to resetting your Masterlock key safe's combination:
- Open the compartment door. Make sure the key safe is unlocked and the door is fully open. This is crucial for accessing the reset mechanism.
- Push the reset lever left and down. Locate the reset lever, typically found on the inside of the key safe door. Use your finger or a small tool to push the lever to the left and then down.
- Rotate the dials to your desired combination. With the reset lever in the down position, set your new combination by rotating each dial to your chosen numbers.
- Push the reset lever, up and right, back to the original position. Once your new combination is set, move the reset lever back to its original position by pushing it up and then to the right. This locks in your new combination.
- Close the key storage compartment door. Securely close the door and test your new combination by trying to open the safe with it. Make sure the door opens with the new code and doesn't open with the old combination.
Key points:
- Reset lever: The reset lever is crucial for changing the combination. Make sure you understand where it is and how to move it.
- Double Check: After changing the code, always double-check that your new combination works and the old one doesn't.
- Secure Location: Keep your key safe in a secure and discreet place.
Following these steps carefully will ensure your Masterlock key safe is programmed with your new combination correctly.
