How do you set up a TSA lock with slide?
You can recognize a TSA lock with slide by the keyhole slider that you can move to the left or right. In most cases, there's an arrow on the lock so you know which way to move the slider. You don't have to look for a key, because a TSA lock never includes a key. Only airport customs have one.
Setup in 6 steps
- If the number combination isn't 0-0-0, set the number combination to 0-0-0.
- Remove the zippers from the lock by sliding the button with "TSA007" to the side.
- Press the small button between the numbers and the zipper with the tip of a pen. This button now remains pressed.
- Set your own numerical code. Remember it well.
- Press the button with "TSA007" again until you hear a click. The small button shoots up again.
- Test the new code by entering your own invented number combination.
