• Radio/navigation system

• Radio/navigation system functions

• Radio code inquiry

An authorization to the system will be requested: Then the operating data, the VIN and the radio serial number of the radio/navigation system will be automatically read out.

• It is possible that the Vehicle diagnostic tester will not be able to read the serial number when a new RNS is installed. In this case enter the unit number manually. The serial number can be found on a sticker on the unit and is also stamped into the side of the RNS (Radio Navigation System).

The Vehicle diagnostic tester will display the anti-theft code.

The anti-theft code must be entered manually into the RNS.

Electronic anti-theft system, deactivating

"SAFE" appears in the display for approximately 10 seconds, after that "1000" appears.

- Press the input screen to confirm in the entry.

The RNS (Radio Navigation System) is enabled and ready for operation.

It is possible to enter the code again if it was entered incorrectly. If anti-theft code is entered incorrectly twice, then the RNS (Radio Navigation System) is locked for an hour. Leave the RNS and ignition on. The procedure can be repeated after one hour.

Note: the anti-theft code can be entered two times. After that, the RNS locks up for one hour.
