MODEDescription
PIN INITIALIZATION Navigation system will be locked when the vehicle's owner enters the wrong PIN five con-
secutive times.
To release the lock, use ªPIN INITIALIZATIONº.
NAVI ID INITIALIZATION In normal times regulation codes are being communicated between Navigation Control
Unit and Dongle Control Unit.
Use ªNAVI ID INITIALIZATIONº to match the codes when either one has been replaced
due to breakdown or etc.
NOTE:
When any initialization is performed, all NAVI ID and PIN pre-
viously registered will be erased and then must be registered
again.
