Congratulations, you’ve installed the Yale Assure Lever® Touchscreen (YRL226) or Key-Free Touchscreen (YRL256)! Using Your Lock instructions will help you customize your lock.

Test Touchscreen Operation with Door Open

A Master Entry Code must be created upon installation or after resetting the lock to factory default. Programming and use of lock is not possible until this step has been successfully completed. See Using Your Lock instructions.

If touchscreen operation test fails, check installation beginning with Step 3

Resetting Lock to Factory Defaults

When resetting the lock, all Entry Codes, including the Master Entry Code*, are deleted. All programming features are reset to original default settings. See “Setting Definitions”.

1. Remove the battery cover and batteries.
2. Remove the inside lock to access the reset button.
3. The reset button (see image above) is marked.
4. Re-insert 3 batteries and hold the reset button for 3 seconds.
5. While still holding the reset button, insert the 4th battery, and hold the reset button for an additional 3 seconds.
6. Release the reset button.
7. Re-install the inside lock onto the door.

*Upon reset, Master Entry Code creation is the only option available and must be performed prior to any other programming of the lock.

Hardware Troubleshooting 

Cycle lock in both the locked and unlocked positions. If problems are found:

Replacing Cylinder (YRL226)

1. To Remove Cylinder:
   See installation Steps 7 and 8. Reverse appropriate actions to remove the outside lever handle and cylinder.

Using Your Lock

NOTE TO INSTALLER AND CONSUMER

While Yale® has included several features to prevent lockout (9-Volt battery jumper, low battery warnings), it is still possible for a lockout situation to occur. Because the YRL256 does not have a key, Yale® recommends using YRL256 in an environment where there are additional entry points into dwelling.

Creating Master Entry Code

The Master Entry Code is used to change lock settings. A security best practice is to set your Master Entry Code with 6 or more digits and create a separate code that is used daily to lock and unlock the door.

Creating Entry Codes

Master Entry Code must be created first.

*Max Entry Codes = 250 with Smart Module; 25 without.

Deleting Entry Codes

Deleting one Entry Code: To delete one Entry Code, you must enter the Entry Code you wish to delete.
To delete all Entry Codes (Does not delete Master Entry Code):

Troubleshooting

Symptom	Suggested Action
Lock does not respond – door is open and accessible.	Keypad becomes active when the Yale logo is pressed. Verify contact with the logo.  If keypad numbers are visible, check they respond when pressed. Check batteries are installed and oriented correctly (polarity) in battery case. Replace batteries* if batteries are dead. Check keypad cable is fully connected and not pinched.
Lock does not respond –door is locked and inaccessible.	Batteries may not have enough power. Replace batteries*. Apply a 9V battery to terminals below the keypad for backup power option.
Lock is on for a while then shows no reaction. Lights dim.	Batteries do not have enough power. Replace batteries*.
Lock chimes indicating code acceptance, but door will not open.	Check for any foreign objects between door and frame. Check that the cable is firmly connected to inside lock.
Lock operates to allow access, but will not automatically re-lock.	Check to see if Auto Re-lock is enabled. Disable Auto Re-lock to lock the door (manually).
Entry Codes will not register.	If low battery indicator is lit, change batteries*. Entry Codes must consist of 4 to 8 digits. The same Entry Code cannot be used for multiple users. Entry Codes are set by the Master Entry Code, which is set first. Contact the Master user. Entry Codes must be entered within 5 seconds (while keypad is active) or process will have to be restarted. Check or gear cannot be part of the Entry Code.
Upon entering an Entry Code and pressing key, the lock displays “invalid code” error or lock times out without responding.	Verify entered code is a valid, previously programmed, 4 to 8 digit code. All Code Lockout is enabled. Only the Master Entry Code can change All Code Lockout. Contact the Master user.
Upon entering an Entry Code and pressing the   key, red padlock icon appears and there are different tones.	Check that All Code Lockout is disabled (see Feature #6). Only the Master Entry Code can change All Code Lockout. Contact the Master user.
Lock operates, but makes no sound.	Check that Volume is enabled (see Feature #4). Only the Master Entry Code can change Volume. Contact the Master user.
Lock responds “Low Battery”	This is the alert to replace the batteries. Replace all four (4) batteries* with new AA Alkaline batteries.
Upon entering an Entry Code and pressing the    key, lock responds “Wrong number of digits”.	The digits entered were incorrect or incomplete. Re-enter the correct code followed by the key.
Lock shows an X on keypad after entering a code.	Bolt failed to fully retract. Refer to “Hardware Troubleshooting”. Entry Code has not been scheduled for use at time of day it is tried. Try Entry Code again during scheduled time.
Deadbolt does not extend when locking the door with keypad.	Lock was not handed properly. Rehand lock through Settings Menu.

When batteries are replaced, Smart Module locks have a real time clock that will be set through the User Interface. It is recommended to verify correct date and time; particularly those locks operating under Daylight Savings Time.
