Troubleshooting
Lock will not open with the correct combination
Ensure you are entering the combination correctly, checking each digit carefully. If the combination was recently changed, re-verify the new code. If the issue persists, try gently wiggling the bolt while turning the dial.

Check for any obstructions around the bolt mechanism. Clean the sliding rod and the surrounding area with a dry cloth. A small amount of appropriate lubricant may be applied to the rod if necessary.
