Here is how to set this lock: 1. Set the lock to all 0's 2. Insert the metal key into the bottom of the lock, with the 2 yellow dots. 3. Twist the metal key until the 2 yellow dots line up, creating a yellow line. 4. Scramble to your new code 5. CAUTION: MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT MOVE THE COMBO AT ALL DURING THIS STEP. It is very easy to accidentally move the combo a number or 2 during this step, and it will ruin your lock for good (if you do not remember the missed-entered combo. Now, twist the metal key back to its original position, breaking the yellow line back into 2 yellow dots. You are now down. To LOCK the product into a device: 1. Tie the lock around something, anything, using the loop. 2. Set the lock to the correct code. 3. Insert the lock into the device, and then turn 90 degrees. If...

However, my lock was poorly made. I could tell from the start it wasn't high quality because the numbers did not slide very well, as you would expect from a nice bike lock or combination lock. After inserting the lock into my laptop, I was unable to scramble the code because the numbers were stuck. I called customer service (which was outsourced to another country, therefore it took them forever to understand my problem) and they told me to return it to get another one. Gotta love that. 22 of 24 people found the following review helpful: bad instructions, By M. Littau-Mora (Chicago) - See all my reviews This review is from: Kensington K64560US ComboSaver Portable Notebook Computer Lock (Personal Computers) I think in the interest of having IKEA-style no-words instructions, they have undermined their product. Here's what I think happened when I tried to reset the code: I put the combo at the preset 0000, then inserted & turned the special reset tool, then put in my new code, then turned the tool back. Then I tried to use the lock, and it didn't work. Then I noticed that though I had thought I'd turned the tool "60 degrees" as the instructions say, I had maybe not turned it quite enough. So I put the tool in again and turned it just a hair more, and it clicked - at which point I believe the combo was reset to whatever number was in the combo window at that point - not the number I'd put in, nor the factory preset. Since I had been trying to make it work, I have no idea what numbers had ended up on the thing at that point. So now there's no way to make it work, and no way to reset it. All because, in the interest of "simplicity" they chose not to put in the instructions the... Read more |
