Action of exterior lever: When the unit is in the locked position the exterior

lever is still allowed to turn, but it will not retract the latch. When the unit is in

the unlocked position, the exterior lever will turn rmly, retracting the latch for

entry.

f.Testthelockingandunlockingfunction.

Ifyoucannotlocktheunitfromtheexteriororcannotrotatetheinteriorturn-

piece,proceedwiththefollowingstepstoremedythesituation.1. Insert the

key and rotate clockwise to the horizontal position. 2. Loosen the set screw

and pull the lever away from the unit, about 1/4”. 3. Rotate the key 180°

clockwise. With the key remaining in the horizontal position, push the lever

back to seat and tighten the set screw. 4. Test the locking and unlocking

function and repeat these steps if required.

Important note: This product has a panic free interior, which will allow

interior lever to always retract the latch and allow exit. Caution: if you exit

and plan re-entry without a key or code, make sure the turnbutton on the

interior lever is in the unlocked (horizontal) position before exiting.
