Z-Wave System Notes

This product is a security enabled Z-wave Plus product and must be used with a Security Enabled Z-Wave controller to be fully utilized. Z-Wave is a "Wireless mesh network," and results may vary based on building construction and communication path.

To assure interoperability, each Z-Wave product must pass a stringent conformance test to assure that it meets the Z-Wave standard for complete compliance with all other devices and controls. The Z-Wave identity mark assures consumers, integrators, dealers and manufacturers that their products will reliably perform with any other Z-Wave device. And, regardless of the vendor, always powered nodes may act as a repeater for Kwikset/Weiser/Baldwin products.

Z-Wave Configuration and Association Parameters are available on the SmartCode 916 page at www.kwikset.com.

Important Safeguards

  1. Read all instructions in their entirety.
  2. Familiarize yourself with all warning and caution statements.
  3. Remind all family members of safety precautions
  4. Protect your user codes and mastercode.
  5. Dispose of used batteries according to local laws and regulations.

CAUTION: Prevent unauthorized entry. Since anyone with access to the back panel can change the user codes, you must restrict access to the back panel and routinely check the user codes to ensure they have not been altered without your knowledge. The use of a mastercode can help protect your system's settings.

WARNING: This Manufacturer advises that no lock can provide complete security by itself. This lock may be defeated by forcible or technical means, or evaded by entry elsewhere on the property. No lock can substitute for caution, awareness of your environment, and common sense. Builder's hardware is available in multiple performance grades to suit the application. In order to enhance security and reduce risk, you should consult a qualified locksmith or other security professional.
