Radio, Stereo, and Compact Disc: Testing and Inspection

Anti-theft security code

General information

All radios are equipped with an electronic anti-theft system.

The electronic anti-theft system is activated and locks the radio as soon as:
- Voltage supply (terminal 30) drops below a predetermined voltage value.
- The radio unit is disconnected from voltage supply (terminal 30) (e.g. when removing radio unit).
- Vehicle battery (terminal 30) has been disconnected.

A radio which is locked by the electronic anti-theft system, is indicated by the letters "SAFE," which appears on the display when the radio is switched on.

Anti-theft security code inputting

The radio will only work, if the correct code number for the anti-theft system is entered.


NOTE: The anti-theft protection code can be found along with the radio number on the radio card. Refer to Owner's Manual. For safety reasons, never leave the radio card in the car. If necessary, ask the customer for the code.

Perform steps in the exact order given below:
- Obtain anti-theft code number from radio card.

- Switch radio on.
"SAFE" will appear on the display.

After 3 seconds, the number 1000 will appear on the display.






- Use station preset buttons (B) -1-�to -4- to enter the 4 digit code number.
- Press preset button -1- to enter first digit in the code number, preset button -2- for second digit and so on.
- To enter code number, press applicable button repeatedly until desired number appears on display.

The value range for each of the 4 digits is between 0 and 9.

- If a button is pressed beyond desired number, the sequence will start over at 1 after 9 is pressed.
- When entire code is entered, press right side of "Seek/Track" rocker button -C- (">") for about 2 seconds, until an audible signal is heard.


NOTES:
- If a wrong code was accidentally entered, the display will flash "SAFE" initially, and then remain on.
- The coding procedure may be repeated a second time (the number of coding attempts is displayed). If a wrong code is entered again, the radio will be disabled for an hour. If this happens, leave the radio ON and the key in the ignition for one hour. After the hour has elapsed, the number of attempts stops being displayed and the electronic lock can be cancelled.
- The cycle is: 2 attempts, 1 hour locked
