locks up, and the turn piece inside cannot be rotated, not even with
the key.
Causes : The detection of latch bolt position is abnormal.
Solutions : Please take out one battery first, then press any button on the front panel
for electric discharge, and put the battery back next. The latch bolt will
automatically re-detect its position subsequently.
Attentions : When the latch gets stuck frequently, please check if the opening of the
strike aims at the central position of the latch bolt, if the latch bolt can
stretch out freely, or if the hinges are deformed or tilted.

beeps are heard and the door cannot unlock when the

Solutions : Please unlock the door with the keys first and then contact the
manufacturer for inspection and maintenance.

To create a new programming code for a Kwikset PL1 lock without the original code, you need to reset the lock to its default settings. Follow these steps:

1. Press and hold the R Button (Reset) until the lock resets.
2. The preset Programming Code will be restored to 0000.
3. Enter 0000 on the keypad.
4. Follow the programming instructions to set a new personal Programming Code (4-10 digits long).

After resetting, make sure to delete the default code and create a secure personal code before using the lock.
