Theft Deterrent (Theftlock (R))
These radios are equipped with THEFTLOCK theft deterrent which, when enabled, causes the unit to be inoperative should it be removed from the vehicle.The theft deterrent is enabled (SECURE mode) by entering a user-selected code into the unit. This code must be re-keyed into the unit following any interruption of battery voltage to resume normal operations. When battery power is disconnected from a secured radio, the radio will not turn on and LOC will appear on the display. If the correct code is not entered, the unit will become inoperable and remain in the LOCKED mode. Any theft deterrent input mode may be exited by cycling either the radio power or ignition.
