**Step 1: Critical Pre-Installation Verification**
1. **Locate the Original Code:** Take your original key and carefully look for the stamped numerical code (e.g., 2860) on the front or side of the key bow.
2. **Alternative Location:** If the original key is lost, find the stamped code on the front of the roof box lock (typically on the lid edge or around the keyhole).
3. **Verify Match:** Ensure the code stamped on your replacement key (2860) matches the original code exactly. The code is the only criterion for compatibility—similar model or appearance does not guarantee it will unlock.
**Step 2: Correct Usage and Operation**
1. **Insert the Key:** Insert the replacement key vertically and smoothly into the keyhole with the **teeth facing up**.
2. **Test Unlocking:**
* Gently turn the key approximately 90 degrees **clockwise** to try unlocking.
* If it does not turn, return the key fully to the starting position and try turning it **counterclockwise**.
* **Note:** Do not use excessive force to turn the key, as this may damage the lock cylinder.
3. **Locking and Removal:** After use, return the key to the starting position (usually indicated by a soft "click") and remove it.
**Step 3: Maintenance and Important Notes**
* **Regular Lubrication:** It is recommended to spray a small amount of dry graphite lubricant into the keyhole every six months to maintain smooth operation and extend the lock's lifespan. Avoid using wet lubricants, as they can attract dust.
* **Proper Storage:** It is recommended to use this key as a spare and store it separately from the original key for emergency use.
