How to Open a Honeywell Safe

Honeywell manufactures electronic safes for use in the home that are used to secure important documents or property. The safes have an electronic lock that needs a programmed combination to open. In addition, the safes come with an emergency override key that can be used to open the safe when you cannot remember the pass code or if the batteries that are used to power the electronic combination lock become exhausted.
