Many Samsonite suitcases come with a combination lock built into the body of the luggage. These locks are ideal because they won't get stuck in a luggage conveyer belt or tear off, damaging your luggage. Use the same procedure to set the lock to your own combination the first time or to reset it in the future.

Samsonite HISTORY. When Jesse Shwayder founded Samsonite® in 1910, travel was once reserved for only an exclusive few, those who had the means to see the world. A TSA lock is a luggage lock developed with the help of the Transportation Security Administration. TSA locks are manufactured by different companies, but all TSA locks can be opened using a universal key. Luggage manufacturer Samsonite offers a variety of business, personal, travel products and accessories. Many Samsonite pieces such as attaches and other bags include a three-digit, built-in.

Return the tab or lever to the original position or release the button. If you didn't have to keep the button pressed in, there is a larger button you press to release the smaller button and finish setting the lock.

Tip

• Safeguard your luggage combination because if you lose it, the only way to reset the combination is by taking your suitcase to an authorized Samsonite repair center.

  If there's a red rhombus and a keyhole insignia on your combination lock, it is TSA-approved. That means if the TSA needs to inspect your luggage, it can use a master key to open the lock as opposed to cutting it off.

A TSA lock is a luggage lock developed with the help of the Transportation Security Administration. TSA locks are manufactured by different companies, but all TSA locks can be opened using a universal key. This is extremely important, since luggage locked with any other locks run the risk of having the locks cut off it the TSA cannot open the luggage for security inspections. Should you forget the code to your TSA lock, most brands can be easily reset.

Place all lock dials to zero, or 0000. They should all be aligned along a line in the front of the lock. Once this code is entered, the shackle will be free from the lock and the lock will be open.

Rotate the shackle from above the lock housing unit 90 degrees or 180 degrees depending on the brand of TSA lock you have. The shackle will only push downward at either 90 or 180 degrees.

Push the shackle inward. While pushing the shackle in, move the dials on the lock to the new desired code. Be sure the dials are aligned along the line on the front of the lock. Once they are properly aligned, release the shackle.

Rotate the shackle and place it into the locking hole. The lock should not lock because the dial should still display the new code. If the lock does not lock, the TSA lock has been successfully reset.
