SOURCE: defalt code for sentry safe 5 digits

You'll need to go here:

https://www.sentrysafe.com/customerCare/retrieveCombination.aspx

There is no "default code", but they do keep the serial number and code on file, for just this purpose.

SOURCE: how to cahnge the battery on a sentry safe

There is a small opening on the front number panel of safe. Use a small hex screwdriver or pin to insert into opening. It will open up the front panel (slide panel to right to take off) showing you 4 AA batteries. Just replace and close panel. Very simple to do. I wish the manual show me how. Instead of trying to figure it out for hours.

SOURCE: how to change the battery of my sentry safe model v260

You must replace the batteries located in under the keypad.

Use a large paperclip to unlock the cover. Push the paperclip into the small hole while at the same time, sliding the battery cover to the right. Gently remove the battery housing and replace batteries. You will have to reset your password again, but can find the directions to do so by going to the Sentry site: http://www.sentrysafe.com/pdfs/OwnersManuals/172967.pdf,

SOURCE: changing the combination

Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0in; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-ansi-language:#0400; mso-fareast-language:#0400; mso-bidi-language:#0400;} You must have the factory combination in order to change the combination that was added to the safe and the factory combination can not be erased if that is the combination you are trying to erase.

All you have to do is press program & type in the factory code 2 times & that will erase the number you created.

Then to add a new combination all you have to do is: press program followed by 5 new numbers. Then to see if they new number works, just type in the new combination & the green light should come on & you have 4 seconds to turn the handle

Know combination, but every time I enter it, why is there an error light?

If you repeatedly get an error code when entering your combination I would first ask if your batteries recently went all the way dead ? If yes then possible that the data for your combination was lost. In your user manual for your safe is a factory code for your safe. If you did not change your factory code when you set up your safe then this will work to get you into your safe. If you did change the factory code and do mot have that number either then the only way to get into your safe is to contact Sentry Safe customer ssrvice. They will be able to take care of you but it is a process.

I have changed the battery in my sentry 1610, no I can't open it with my pin-Nr..

if you have changed the batteries, the code may have reset itself to the default code.
you should be able to find this in the instruction manual or on the manufacturers website.

i am sorry i cannot give you the codes myself, but i do not feel it is appropriate to put default codes for a safe on an open website

When i put my last digital number in the red light comes on and error blinks i have a safe with the key and then you put 5 digits in and turn the lever then it opens the sentry safe A5 406618

When the red light blinks that means you are entering the wrong code. If your batteries went dead the safe delets the user code Check your owners manual for the default factory code number. Programing instructions.
