Theft-deterrent feature
Security system
The Infotainment system is equipped
with an electronic security system for
the purpose of theft deterrence.
The Infotainment system functions
only in your vehicle and is therefore
worthless to a thief.
Security code
A 4-digit security code (supplied
separately) must be entered upon
first use of the Infotainment system
and after prolonged interruptions to
the power supply, to unblock the
Infotainment system.
Entering the security code
When switching on the Infotainment
system for the first time, the message
Radio code - - - - is shown briefly in
the display and the 4-digit security
code must be entered.
If no code is entered within a set time
limit, Enter code - - - - will appear.
To enter the security code:
■ Press repeatedly the numbered
button 1 on the Infotainment
system until the desired first digit is
displayed.
■ Enter the 2nd, 3rd and 4th digits
using buttons 2, 3 and 4 in the same
way.
When the 4th digit of the security code
has been entered, the Infotainment
system is unblocked after a brief
period.
Incorrect code entered
When an incorrect code has been
entered, an audible signal is sounded
and Radio blocked/wait is shown in
the display, along with a countdown
timer.
Wait until the countdown time has
expired and Radio blocked/wait
disappears from the display, then
enter the correct code.
Each time the code is entered
incorrectly, the countdown time is
doubled.
Code Card
The Code Card certifies ownership of
the Infotainment system and contains
the radio model, serial number and
password.
Note
Keep the Code Card in a safe place.
If the Infotainment system is stolen,
the relevant authorities can be
supplied with these important
details.
Handsfree system code
After the Infotainment system security
code has been entered correctly and
both the Infotainment and Handsfree
systems are operational, it is possible
to view the Handsfree system
identification code.
Using the buttons on the steering
wheel:
1. Press  / MENU.
2. Select Settings using R / S, and
press SRC/OK.
3. Select Advanced features using
R / S, and press SRC/OK.
