Within 10 seconds after entering a valid code, touch and hold the 3|4 button and the Enter button for 2 seconds. The Bauer NE Bluetooth will provide 3 short beeps and the Touch Indicator Light will flash Blue 3 times, indicating it is ready to accept a new code.

Please note that if the deadbolt is in the locked position and the batteries die the deadbolt will remain locked. The key will always be able to activate the deadbolt lock.
Regular Maintenance
- Install fresh batteries as necessary. The Bauer NE Bluetooth is designed to function for months of normal usage with fresh, high-quality AA batteries. Battery life is highly dependent upon battery quality, usage, and environment (temperature). We highly recommend Energizer Lithium batteries – they have consistently provided the most reliable and long-lasting performance.
- Make sure there are no obstructions in the door frame to prevent deadbolt extension.
- Do not wash with power washer or high pressure cleaner. The Bauer NE Bluetooth is designed to resist water intrusion to protect its electrical components from normal water encounter such as rain.
- The Bauer NE Bluetooth uses AlSentis HSS Touch Technology. The buttons are activated by touching, not pressing.
- Remove batteries when storing or not using this lock for extended periods of time. Corroded batteries, terminals, and plugs voids warranty.
