Conclusion: When to Call ASSA ABLOY (VingCard)

  • Symptoms: You open the battery cover (located on the interior side of the door) and the batteries are scalding hot.
  • Diagnosis: Cheap, leaking alkaline batteries, or a reversed battery polarity. The manual warns that using Carbon-Zinc batteries (instead of Alkaline) or mixing old with new batteries causes thermal runaway.
  • Manual Fix: Remove batteries immediately using gloves. Clean corrosion with a dry toothbrush.
  • Do not store “Hot Keys” near magnetic strips or heat sources.
  • Test the emergency “Hot Key” function monthly during fire drill inspections.
  • If the lock emits a continuous “hot” alarm (alternating beeps), replace batteries immediately – low voltage can mimic thermal errors.
