1. Prepara la porta: Ensure your door has standard bore holes (typically 2-1/8 inch diameter for the cross bore and 1 inch diameter for the edge bore).

2. Installa il fermo: Insert the latch mechanism into the edge bore hole of the door, ensuring the bevel of the latch bolt faces the door frame. Secure it with the provided screws.

4. Install the Interior Lever: Place the interior lever assembly onto the spindle and align it with the mounting posts from the exterior assembly. Secure the interior and exterior assemblies together using the provided mounting screws. Tighten screws evenly until snug, but do not overtighten.
5. Installare la piastra di battuta: Close the door and mark the position of the latch bolt on the door frame. Chisel out a shallow recess for the strike plate and dust box. Install the dust box, then secure the strike plate with screws.

• To Unlock from the Inside: Simply turn the interior lever handle downwards. This action will automatically release the push button and unlock the door.
• Emergency Unlock from the Outside: In case of an emergency or accidental lockout, insert the provided emergency release tool (or a small, pointed object like a paperclip) into the small hole on the center of the exterior lever's rosette. Push firmly to disengage the privacy lock.

6. Manutenzione

Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your Yale Pacific Beach Privacy Lever.

• Lubrificazione: If the lever action becomes stiff over time, a small amount of graphite lubricant can be applied to the latch bolt mechanism. Do not use oil-based lubricants, as they can attract dust and grime.
• Serraggio delle viti: Periodically check and tighten all mounting screws to ensure the lever remains securely attached to the door. Do not overtighten.
