Opening & Closing Your Safe  
Opening The First Time  
The dial is preset to the fourth (last) number in the combination. The safe door  
should open when you insert the Companion Entry Key (round top), turn to the  
right and pull the door open. The dial may move in transit, making it necessary  
to dial the combination before opening the first time We recommend  
trying the following combination procedure with safe door open first.  
Your Combination  
The combination for your safe can be found imprinted on the inside back cover  
of this Operation and Installation Guide. It is a pre-set 4 number sequence that is  
unique to your safe and cannot be changed. It is recommended that you keep this  
Operation and Installation Guide in a secure place. NEVER store this Guide inside  
the safe.  
Opening Safe with Combination Dial  
1. Turn the dial LEFT (counter clockwise) three times to clear prior settings.  
2. Begin by placing dial on 0 (zero).  
3. Turn the dial LEFT, passing the first combination number FOUR (4) times and  
stop at the number on the fifth time around.  
4. Turn the dial RIGHT, passing the second combination number TWO (2) times  
and stop at the number on the third time around.  
5. Turn the dial LEFT, passing the third combination number ONE (1) time and  
stop at the number on the second time around.  
6. Turn the dial RIGHT and STOP on the fourth combination number.  
7. Insert the Entry Key into the key lock, turn to the right, and pull the door open.  
Closing & Locking The Safe  
1. When open, the key is turned right (the unlocked position).  
2. Close the safe door and turn the key to the left.  
3. Remove the key and spin the combination dial twice.  
Frequent Key-Only Access  
When circumstances require frequent, quick and convenient access for limited  
periods during the day, you may choose to keep the commbination positioned  
on the last number and lock only the keylock. However, the safe is not fully  
locked until spinning the dial.  
Important: REDUCED LEVEL OF SECURITY  
The safe is ONLY FULLY LOCKED after turning key to the locked position and spinning  
the dial. For your security, we recommend always locking both the combination dial  
and key lock for the highest level of protection & security.

GUIDES  
Your Shelf and Shelf Support Clips have been  
shipped inside your safe and wrapped for protection  
from damage during shipping.  
1. Remove Shelf and (4) Shelf Support Clips  
from protective wrapping.  
2. Determine the desired position of your shelf  
and note the corresponding Support Guide  
Slots (2 on each side of interior walls) that  
are best suited to support the shelf in that  
position.  
3. Install the (4) Shelf Support Clips in the same  
position on all four support guides.  
4. Install shelf into position by placing it inside  
the safe (tilting if necessary) at a point above  
the desired position.

positions. Then reinstall shelf as described above.

Additional Features: Bolt-Down Kit  
Model 2054F (only)  
Installing Your Safe  
Certain models include a Bolt-Down kit with break-off bolts and a mounting  
template for permanent mounting to a flat surface. Once the safe is installed  
using the break-off bolts, it is permanent and cannot be easily removed.  
Tools Required  
4 Break-off Bolts (Supplied)  
4 Washers(Supplied)  
1 Mounting Template (Supplied)  
1 Drill  
1 Screwdriver  
Important: SECURING TO FLOOR  
Many consumers prefer to bolt their safe to the floor to  
increase protection from theft and resistance to tipping.  
If your safe was manufactured with bolt down holes pre-  
drilled in the floor of the safe, bolting your safe to the  
floor may provide additional theft deterrence.  
If you have ANY QUESTIONS about how to accomplish  
this, or are uncomfortable using the tools necessary  
to complete this project, please check with your local  
retailer, home center, or independent contractor.

Additional Features: Bolt-Down Kit  
Model 2054F (only)  
Installation Procedure  
1. Choose a mounting location that is easily  
accessible from both above and below.  
2. Carefully position the template on the  
location that you want to mount the safe.  
3. Create the guide marks by pressing a sharp  
tool through the circles at the four corners of  
the template and into the mounting location.  
4. Drill a hole (the diameter of the break-off bolt  
shaft) through each guide mark.  
Important: DON’T DRILL SAFE  
Do not drill into the feet, bottom or any other  
part of safe! Doing so will ELIMINATE THE FIRE  
PROTECTION that has been designed into your  
safe and invalidate all stated warranties.  
5. Before attaching the safe, you should check  
carefully that the 4 holes you have drilled  
match up precisely with the holes that have  
been pre-drilled in the bottom of the safe.  
Note: On certain models, It may be necessary  
to remove the rubber foot pads that are  
screwed into the bolt-down holes at the  
factory.  
6. Once you have confirmed that the holes  
are aligned and in the location you desire,  
install the break-off bolts and washers from  
underneath the mounting location (through  
the furniture or shelf), and into the pre-drilled  
holes in the safe.  
7. Turn bolts until the screw heads break off.

Consumer Affairs  
Your Safes Unique Identification Numbers  
When contacting Consumer Affairs, you should be prepared to supply some  
important information that specifically identifies your safe. This information is  
extremely important to assuring prompt and accurate customer assistance.  
It is strongly recommended that you identify and record the following information  
in the “Safe Identification Record” form located on the inside back cover of this  
manual:  
Model Number  
Serial Number  
Key Number  
Locating Model and Serial Numbers  
Most First Alert® safes include a small metallic silver or gray tag affixed to one  
of the surfaces. This tag is usually located on the front or right side of the safe.  
This tag contains the Serial Number, and on selected models a similar tag is  
attached containing the Model Number. If a Model Number tag is not attached  
to the safe, then it can be located on the front or side panel of the box that the  
safe was packaged in. Write this number down for future reference.  
Key Number  
The Key Number is located on the key. If you do not have the key, the number  
is also imprinted on the Emergency Override Key lock. See Emergency Override  
Key, page 3, for instructions on locating this lock.  
Important: DO NOT REMOVE TAGS!  
In case your safe becomes inoperable or you lose your keys, these identification  
numbers will be needed to correct the problem. It is recommended that the  
number tags remain in place on the safe. If removal is necessary, then they  
should be attached to the inside back cover of the Operation and Installation  
Guide. Store in a safe and secure place for future reference.

Verified fire protection for:  
Memory sticks, CDs & DVDs, USB Drives.  
This product is NOT INTENDED to protect audio or video cassettes, floppy discs,  
data cartridges, film and photos or photo negatives  
Testing shows that the interior temperature of the safe remains below 350°F  
(177°C) for 1 hour during a fire up to 1700°F (927°C) when used properly. Your  
safe must be closed and latched in order to properly protect the contents from fire.  
Moisture Warning  
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  
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.  
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.
