T AUDIO ANTITHEFT SYSTEM Alarm Conditions If the antitheft system protection has been activated, any one of the following conditions will trigger the sys- tem: .--' Disconnected battery cable Discharged battery Disconnected audio unit connectors. If the system is triggered, the audio unit will then be inoperative when it is reconnected to a power source, and "code" will flash on the display until the preselected code number is input. Follow the procedures in "Canceling Antitheft Operation" (page T-110) to deactivate the unit. Setting the Code Number 1. Turn the audio unit off with the ignition switch at ACC. 2. Push REW and FF simultaneously for approximately 2 seconds until "code" is displayed. 3. Push REW and FF together again within 10 seconds un- til bars appear on the display. 4. Select a personal code number and record it before in- putting it. If the number is input and then forgotten, it can- not be canceled, and if the unit is disconnected again, the audio unit will be inoperati. .-/ 5. Use channel buttons 1-4 to input the selected code number. Press 1 for the first digit, 2 for the second, 3 for the third, and 4 for the last digit. If the display is deleted, repeat the procedure from step 1. 6. With the code number displayed, press and hold REW and FF for approximately 2 seconds until a beep is heard and "code" begins to flash. 7. After approximately 5 seconds, the display will change to time. This indicates the system is set. Gartner Banana

AUDIO T Canceling The Code Number 1. Turn the ignition switch to ACC and then turn off the au- dio unit. 2. Press REW and FF simultaneously for approximately 2 seconds until "code" is displayed. 3. Press REW and FF again until bars appear on the dis- play. 4. Use channel buttons 1-4 to input the current code num- ber. Press 1 for the first digit, 2 for the second, 3 for the third, and 4 for the last digit. 5. With the code number on the display, press and hold REW and FF for approximately 2 seconds until a beep is heard. "Code" will be displayed for approximately 5 se- conds. After it disappears, the code number is canceled. 6. If "ErrW(error) appears on the display, repeat the proce- dure from step 1. To Deactivate Antitheft System Canceling Antitheft Operation 1. Push REW and FF until bars are displayed. 2. Use channel buttons 1-4 to input the current code num- bers. Press 1 for the first digit, 2 for the second, 3 for the third, and 4 for the last digit.

AUDIO 3. Press and hold REW and FF for approximately 2 se- conds until a beep is heard. "Code" will be displayed for approximately 5 seconds and then disappear to indicate that the audio unit is operative. -.- Caution Three consecutive errors, including turning the ignition switch to OFF and disconnecting the au- dio unit, will activate the antitheft system and ren- der the audio unit completely inoperative. If this occurs, contact Panasonic 4. If "Err" (error) appears, repeat the procedure from step 1. TROUBLESHOOTING Before troubleshooting, verify that the customer is using the audio system correctly. If not, advise the customer of the proper operating procedures. (Refer to page T-108.) TY pe 1 1.
