Riddle of the Sphinx Hints
Step three: Rotate LEFT
1 of 4: Once step two is complete, and the cursor now shows the letter "L", then you're ready to go on to step three.
2 of 4: The instructions on the back of the lock package say: "Step 3: Rotate LEFT to second number. Turn dial to left (counter clock-wise), one full revolution past the first number until the second number is aligned with the notch."
3 of 4: Click and hold the mouse button. Drag the dial of the lock to the left (counter clock-wise). Keep going past the number you need, and continue on until the second number of the combination is once again exactly at the top center of the lock. Let go of the mouse button.
4 of 4: Beside the cursor, there should now be a letter "R". Continue with step four of the instructions.
