disable itself if it is disconnected
f rom electrical power f or any reason.

enter a specif ic f ive-digit code in the

hundreds of number combinations

stations in the preset buttons after
the system begins working. Your
original settings were lost when the
power was disconnected.
If you lose the card, you must obtain
the code number f rom a dealer. To
do this, you will need the system’s

system’s serial number in this owner’s
manual. If your vehicle’s battery is
disconnected or goes dead, or the
radio f use is removed, the audio
system will disable itself . If this
