Theft-Deterrent Feature
THEFTLOCKžis designed to discourage theft of your
radio. It works by using a secret code to disable all radio
functions whenever battery power is interrupted.
The THEFTLOCK
žfeature for the radio may be used or
ignored. If ignored, the system plays normally and the
radio is not protected by the feature. If THEFTLOCK
žis
activated, your radio will not operate if stolen.
When THEFTLOCK
žis activated, LOC will appear on
the radio display to indicate a locked condition anytime
battery power has been interrupted. If your battery
loses power for any reason, you must unlock the radio
with the secret code before it will operate.
