2. Press SCAN and AUTO-M buttons simultaneously until bars appear on the display.
3. While bars are displayed, input correct preselected code number using station preset buttons 1, 2, 3 and 4.
4. Press and hold SCAN and AUTO-M buttons until a beep is heard and "CODE" appears on display (approximately 1.5 seconds).
5. If "Err" (error) appears on display, repeat procedure from Step 1. Three consecutive errors will activate anti-theft operation and audio unit will be completely inoperative.
