Security Code
Your radio includes an electronically coded security system. This security system relies on an unique PIN code to enable operation of your radio. The number only needs to be entered if the car's battery has been disconnected or if the radio has been removed from the car. Please refer to the security release procedure.
If an incorrect PIN code is entered, the radio will not operate, and there will be a time delay before the PIN code can be
DO NOT SWITCH OFF THE RADIO DURING THE WAITING TIME.
The waiting time is approximately 10 seconds for the first 2 attempts, then 10 minutes, and up to 11 hours by the tenth attempt. The number of attempts remaining is shown in the display.
After the tenth attempt 'DEALER' appears in the display and the set is blocked. Contact your Holden Retailer to put the set back into operation.
Because the PIN code is the only means of enabling operation of the radio, we recommend that the Security Card is kept in a safe location.
DO NOT LEAVE IT IN THE GLOVEBOX OF YOUR CAR.
The PIN code should also be written down and kept with other important documents.
If your card is lost, and the PIN code is not recorded elsewhere, the PIN can be requested from your Holden Retailer, after supplying the requested ownership information. There may be a charge for this service.
Please note:
For added security a small red light on the radio blinks while the ignition is off.
