This step will teach your lock the orientation of your door and is crucial to lock operation.
Install 4 AA batteries in battery pack.
Make sure the door is open, and
insert the battery pack.
After a few seconds, the latch bolt will retract and extend on
its own to learn the orientation of the door. This is called the
door handing process,
and it is crucial to lock operation.
If the touchscreen indicates a failure, attempt this procedure again.
If the door handing process is still unsuccessful after a second
attempt, perform the “Manual Door Handing” procedure on page 4.

Programming Timeout
During programming, if the
screen is not pressed for 20
seconds, the system will time
out (indicated by three beeps
and the “X” pattern flashing
three times), and you will need to
restart the procedure.
It is recommended that you
add and delete all user codes
through your smart home
control system. If your system
does not allow this, codes may
be added directly to the lock as
shown here.
Programming was successful.
Programming was unsuccessful.
Make sure the user code is not a duplicate and that it is between
4 and 8 digits during your next attempt.
Make sure the lock has room for an additional code. If all user code
positions are filled, delete a code to make room for this one.
1. Activate the screen.
2. Press Lock symbol.

Note: If no user codes are
programmed, the door cannot
be locked via touchscreen.
1. Activate the screen.
2. If SecureScreen™ is enabled, touch
the random digits that appear.
3. Enter user code.
If you press the wrong digit while entering
a user code, you can press the Lock symbol
once to clear the digits entered previously and
immediately restart the code entry process.
If desired, this feature
can be disabled by
turning switch #4 to
the off
position. See
“Switches” on page 4.
SecureScreen is an added-security feature
that displays random digits before you enter
a user code to unlock the door. This feature
ensures that there are fingerprints on all
digits so that codes cannot be identified by
examining the touchscreen for finger prints.
Each user code must be a
unique code between 4 and
8 digits, depending on your
smart home system.
*Beeping sound will only be heard if switch #3 (on the lock interior) is in the on positon. See “Switches and Status LED Colors
” on page 4.
Mastercode
For enhanced security,
a mastercode may
be used when adding
and deleting user
codes. For more
information about the
mastercode, download
the Programming and
Troubleshooting Guide
on the SmartCode 916
Touchscreen page at
www.kwikset.com.

*Beeping sound will only be heard if switch #3 is on.

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.

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.
Removing the lock from the network
Follow your smart home system’s instructions
to remove the lock from the network. When
