If your vehicle’s battery is
disconnected or goes dead, the
audio system disables itself. If
this happens, you will see ‘‘ENTER
CODE’’ in the frequency display
next time you turn on the system.
Use the preset buttons to enter the
five-digit code. The code is on the
Anti-theft Identification Card
included in your owner’s manual kit.
When it is entered correctly, the
radio will start playing.
The Anti-theft Identification Card
also lists your audio serial number. It
is best to store the card in a safe
place at home. In addition, you
should write the audio system’s
serial number in this owner’s manual.

code, do not start over; complete the
f ive-digit sequence, then enter the
correct code. You have ten tries to

one hour bef ore trying again.

FM presets even if power is
disconnected.

easy to retrieve the anti-theft code
online without having to access the
serial number.
