Your vehicle’s audio system will
disable itself if it is disconnected
f rom electrical power f or any reason.
To make it work again, you must
enter a specif ic f ive-digit code with
the preset buttons. Because there
are hundreds of number
combinations possible f rom the f ive
digits, making the system work
without knowing the exact code is
nearly impossible.
Youshouldhavereceivedacardthat
lists your audio system code number
and serial number. It is best to store
this card in a saf e place at home. In
addition, you should write the audio
system’s serial number in this owner’s
manual.
If you lose the card, you must obtain
the code number f rom your dealer.
To do this, you will need the audio
system’s serial number.If your vehicle’s battery is discon-
nected or goes dead, or the radio
f use is removed, the audio system
will disable itself . If this happens,
youwillsee‘‘ ’’intheupper

system. Use the preset buttons to
enter the f ive-digit code. The code is
locatedontheradiocodecard
included in your owner’s manual kit.
When it is entered correctly, the
radio will start playing.
If you make a mistake entering the
code, do not start over; complete the
f ive-digit sequence, then enter the
correct code. You have ten tries to
enter the correct code. If you are
unsuccessful in ten attempts, you
must then leave the system on for 1
hour bef ore trying again.
If thecodecardislost,yourdealer
can access your code with your
radio’s serial number. To access the
serial number, turn the radio on. Itmust display ‘‘ ’’, then turn
the radio off. Push and hold the

pressing the remote control button
could burn out the motor.
The HomeLink transceiver stores
the code in a permanent memory.
There should be no need to retrain

If your garage door opener was
manuf actured bef ore April 1982, you
may not be able to program
HomeLink to operate it. Always ref er to the operating
