Anti-theft Security Code, Inputting

Prerequisites:
- Obtain security code, either from code card or from customer.
- Radio power supply fuse OK (according to wiring diagram)

Inputting code / cancelling electronic lock-up

- Switch on radio
"SAFE" appears in radio display, followed by "1000" approximately 3 seconds later.
- Input the security code found on the radio card using the station preset buttons on the radio. Button "1" corresponds to the first number in the security code, "2" the second and so on. Press the applicable button repeatedly until the desired number appears in the display (E.g.: press button "1" three times if the first number in the code is 3).

Premium IV &V (incl. Monsoon)

- When the entire code has been input and appears on the display, press the right side of the "Seek" button (">") for longer than 2 seconds until an audible signal is heard.

Premium VI (incl. Monsoon)

- When the entire code has been input and appears on the display, either press the upper portion of the "Seek" button ("Uparrow") or the "Scan" button for longer than 2 seconds until an audible signal is heard.

The code is input properly when the display either indicates a radio frequency, or "LSM" (ready for use). When the radio is switched off and the ignition key removed, a flashing LED on the radio faceplate confirms the radio is security protected.

Incorrect code number

If an incorrect code is entered, "SAFE" will appear in the display (first blinking and then continuous) and the radio will not function. The entire coding procedure can only be repeated one more time immediately (the number of attempts is displayed).

If during the second attempt an incorrect code is entered, the radio will lock-up for approximately one hour. Leave key in ignition, radio switched on for 1 hour and attempt coding again when the number of attempts on display goes out (ensure proper code is available).

Cycle: 2 attempts - 1 hour lock-up still applies.
RENDER: 1.0x
