Anti-theft protection

Release panel

This unit is equipped with a release panel (detachable face).

You can remove the control face at the push of a button.

For extra anti-theft protection, we recom- mend you to take the detachable face with you when leaving your car.

Re-inserting the release panel is child’s play. The set will be ready for use immediately; you will find all the previous settings re-adjusted.

Detaching the release panel

•Press RELEASE.

The unit will be switched off automatically. The control panel will be released in order for you to detach it.

Store it in a safe place, excluding possible damages.

Fitting the release panel

•Insert the panel on the left side first with the cassette slot facing up and then

•press on the right until it locks in.

The unit is now ready for use with the settings adjusted before removing the panel.

Security code

This car radio is supplied with inactive code protection. In order to switch the security coding system on, proceed as described in the following.

If the coding system is active while the power supply to the system is interrupted (e.g. theft, disconnection of the car battery), the set will be electronically blocked. In such a case it can only be made operable again by entering the correct code number given in the car radio passport.

Entry of a wrong code number

It should not be possible for a thief to find out the correct code number by trial and error. This is why the set will be blocked for a certain period of time after a wrong code number has been entered. The display will then show “CODE ERR”.

After the first three unsuccessful attempts, the system will lock for 8 seconds; after further attempts, the waiting time extends to one hour.
