Use, Care and Maintenance
Safe Care and Maintenance
When properly maintained, your safe will continue to provide protection for
many years. In order to ensure optimum performance of your safe, please
follow these simple precautions:
Clean Hands - Do not attempt to operate combination dial if your hands have
excessive dirt, debris, or liquids on them. Under normal circumstances, it is not
necessary to wash your hands before using the safe.
Clean Safe – To clean the outside surface of your safe, it is recommended that
you use a mild cleaner (e.g., window cleaner) to avoid scratching or discoloring
the surface. Do not use abrasive cleansers.
Moisture – If the safe is stored in an area of high moisture content (such as near
the ocean or in a tropical climate), moisture from the environment may become
trapped inside the safe. If this applies to you, open the safe on a regular basis to
promote air circulation.
For future reference, store this Operation and Installation Guide in a secure area
away from the safe. DO NOT DISCARD!

Moisture Warning
Due to the high moisture content of the fire retardant insulation used in
UL Classified fire safes, we recommend that you place delicate items such as
pictures or intricate jewelry into an air-tight container before storing them in
your safe. Avoid placing your safe in areas of high humidity. For optimum
performance, the safe should be opened and aired out for at least 20 minutes
every two weeks.

This safe is not designed to store medication, items with combustible content,
guns or other weapons. Please contact BRK / SISCO at 800-223-8566 or shop
www.FirstAlert.com for information about safes that can securely store your
firearms or medication.
Pearls
Because pearls sustain heat damage at temperatures below 350° F, we advise
that you DO NOT store pearls in this fire safe.
