statements.

Preventing Inadvertent
Unlocking of Your Door
WARNING: Failure to follow these safeguards
could result in your lock opening inadvertently.
1. Avoid keeping and storing phones and fobs
unnecessarily close to the lock when inside the
home.
2. Restrict access to your Kevo lock’s back panel
and routinely check your settings to ensure they
have not been altered without your knowledge.
3. Protect the password to your Kevo app and web
portal accounts.
4. When sending an eKey, always double-check that
you are sending it to the correct recipient.
5. Protect and restrict access to your smartphone so
that your app settings cannot be altered without
your knowledge.
6. Enable the Kevo app’s security passcode so that
your app settings cannot be altered without your
knowledge.
7. When sending eKeys, be aware of the difference
between an Admin user and other users in the
system: an Admin user can send, disable and
delete eKeys.
8. If your smartphone is lost or stolen, use the Kevo
web portal (www.mykevo.com) to disable it.
9. If a fob in your Kevo system is lost or stolen, reset
your lock to delete it from memory.
CAUTION: Prevent unauthorized entry. Because
anyone with access to the back panel can change your
Kevo lock’s settings, you must restrict access to the
back panel and routinely check your settings to ensure
they have not been altered without your knowledge.
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 quali ed
locksmith or other security professional.
CAUTION: As with any radio-based technology,
it should be noted that the accuracy and reliability
of the Kevo lock’s inside-outside sensor cannot be
guaranteed. Users should not rely solely on the Kevo
lock’s sensor for security purposes and should always
use caution. Kwikset assumes no responsibility for
incorrect results or damages resulting from the use of
the Kevo lock’s sensor.
Certain home con gurations may impede the Kevo
lock’s sensor more than others. Example: Your home
of ce is located next to your entryway, and part of
the of ce extends past the front door, jutting into the
front yard. If your device is being actively used in that
of ce extension, the Kevo lock’s sensor could possibly
detect the device as being outside of your home while
that device is in active use.
CAUTION: With this feature enabled, it is possible to lock
yourself outside if you don’t have an enrolled smartphone,
Kevo fob or standard key with you.
This is a convenient feature that allows you to lock the door from the
outside without the use of a smartphone or fob.
You might use Triple Touch Lock if you are using only a standard key in
your system but wish to lock the door by touch, if your smartphone or
fob is disabled, or if you have a visitor in your home that will leave and
lock the door behind them.
Note: This feature is OFF by default. To enable it, ip Switch #2 to the
ON position, then lock or unlock the door by touching the deadbolt rose.
To lock the door with this feature, touch the deadbolt rose three times,
pausing brie y between each touch. The light ring will spin blue, ash
amber, and you will hear one beep (if switch #3 is on).
Inside-Outside
Sensor
The Kevo lock features a sensor
that can tell if your device is
inside or outside your home to
help prevent your door from being
unlocked by unauthorized users
while your device is inside.
Each device in your Kevo system
will automatically calibrate
to enable this sensor as of
software version 1.2.3. For more
information on calibration, go
to www.kwikset.com/kevo/
support.
History Log
A history of the lock’s activity may
be viewed through the Kevo app
or by logging into the web portal:

Notifi cations

locked and unlocked by eKey

Kevo App Passcode
Kevo features an optional,
added-security passcode that
you can enable inside the app to

will require you to enter a 4-digit
PIN whenever you access the app,
and it protects your Kevo account
against unauthorized changes
when your phone is unlocked.
