Your vehicle's audio system will
disable itself if it is disconnected
from electrical power for any reason.
To make it work again, you must
enter a specific digit code using the
preset buttons. Because there are
hundreds of number combinations
possible from specific digits, making
the system work without knowing
the exact code is nearly impossible.
You should have received a card that
lists your audio system's code and
serial numbers. It is best to store this
card in a safe 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 from a dealer. To
do this, you will need the system's
serial number.If your vehicle's battery is
disconnected or goes dead, or the
radio fuse is removed, the audio
system will disable itself. If this
happens, you will see
‘‘ENTER
CODE ’’in the frequency display the
next time you turn on the system.
Use the preset buttons to enter the
code. On vehicles with navigation
system, touch the Done icon to set
the code. The code is on the radio
code card 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
sequence, then enter the correct
code. You have 10 tries to enter the
correct code. If you are unsuccessful
in 10 attempts, you must then leave
the system on for 1 hour before
trying again.

Checking the Battery280

5. Look for a blown wire inside thefuse. If it is blown, replace it with
one of the spare fuses of the same
rating or lower.
If you cannot drive the vehicle
without fixing the problem, and you
do not have a spare fuse, take a fuse
of the same rating or a lower rating
from one of the other circuits. Make
sure you can do without that circuit
temporarily (such as the accessory
power socket or radio). If you replace the blown fuse with a
spare fuse that has a lower rating, it
might blow out again. This does not
indicate anything wrong. Replace the
fuse with one of the correct rating as
soon as you can.
Replacing a fuse with one that has a
higher rating greatly increases the
chances of damaging the electrical
system. If you do not have a
replacement fuse with the proper rating
for the circuit, install one with a lower
rating.
6. If the replacement fuse of the same
rating blows in a short time, there
is probably a serious electrical
problem in your vehicle. Leave the
blown fuse in that circuit and have
your vehicle checked by a
qualified technician.
On vehicles without navigation systemIf the radio fuse is removed, the
audio system will disable itself. The
next time you turn on the radio you
will see ‘‘ENTER CODE ’’in the
frequency display. Use the preset
buttons to enter the code (see page

When the audio system is disabled,
