FAQs
Will this lock fit my specific vehicle model?
The WA839B features a universal retractable design with a double U-lock fork, making it compatible with the vast majority of steering wheels found in standard cars, vans, and trucks.
Can I lock the device without the key?
Yes, the device is equipped with an automatic locking system that allows you to secure the lock onto the wheel by simply pushing the locking mechanism closed.
What should I do if I lose all three keys?
Because these are high-security keys, it is vital to keep your spares in a safe place. If all keys are lost, you will likely need a professional locksmith to remove the device.
Does the lock damage the steering wheel?
The device includes protective adhesive pads that should be applied to the U-lock contact points to prevent surface damage or scratches to the steering wheel.
How do I use the emergency hammer?
The integrated safety hammer is built into the unit. In an emergency, hold the device firmly by the grip area and use the hardened tip to strike the corner of a vehicle window to shatter the glass.
Troubleshooting
The lock does not click shut automatically
Ensure the extendible arm is free of debris and that the internal mechanism is not obstructed. Check that the U-forks are fully seated against the steering wheel rim.
Key is difficult to insert or turn
Clean the keyhole with compressed air to remove debris or use a small amount of dry graphite lubricant. Avoid using heavy oils.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward due to the retractable design. Before first use, apply the included adhesive pads to the interior contact points of the U-lock forks to ensure your steering wheel finish remains pristine. To maintain the mechanism, periodically wipe the extendible bar with a dry cloth to remove dust and ensure smooth movement. If the locking mechanism feels stiff, a small amount of non-greasy lubricant may be applied, but avoid excessive oils that could attract grit inside the lock housing. Always store your spare keys in a secure, separate location from the vehicle to avoid total lockout.
