CATS (Code) System/For Europe RHD
NOTE:
lThis system is used for code indicator-equipped radios on all models.
lThe Europe LHD model with KA24E engine has a NATS-linked anti-theft function with radio as
optional equipment that renders the code system inoperable.
DESCRIPTION
By using a personal 4-digit code known only to the vehicle owner, the possibility of the audio unit being sto-
len is effectively reduced, because without the code the unit can not be activated. When in normal use, the
unit is unlocked and accessible in the usual way.
If however, someone attempts to remove the unit or the battery cable is disconnected, the anti-theft system
activates and the unit ``locks''. The only way it can be unlocked is by entering a personal code number known
only by the owner.
UNLOCKING THE UNIT (How to enter a personal code number)
lIf the battery supply to the vehicle is interrupted by accident for some reason, the unit will lock.
To unlock the unit, proceed as follows:
1. Press the power/volume control knob to turn the unit on.
2. ``CODE IN'' is displayed.
3. Input your personal code by pressing the preset buttons (1 to 4).
4. Press the
button.
5. If the entered code number is correct, the radio turns on.
When the code is incorrect
1. If the entered code is incorrect, the unit becomes inoperable for 10 seconds for the first three attempts,
then the code input mode is automatically set (``CODE IN'' is displayed).
2. If the code is incorrect the fourth time, the unit becomes inoperable for 60 minutes and ``
'' is dis-
played. After 60 minutes, the code input mode is automatically set (``CODE IN'' is displayed).
NOTE:
If the above is repeated 17 times, the unit will lock and ``LOCKED'' is displayed.
3. After ``LOCKED'' is displayed, radio can be returned to the code input mode only within three attempts
as follows. (Only three attempts are allowed to unlock the unit.)
a. Press the power/volume control knob while pushing both the MOD and TA switches.
b. The unit then returns to the code input mode.
CAUTION:
If the third attempt is unsuccessful, the unit will lock permanently.

lBefore jacking up the vehicle, apply wheel chocks or other
tire blocks to the wheels to prevent the vehicle from moving.
After jacking up the vehicle, support the vehicle weight with
safety stands at the points designated for proper lifting before
working on the vehicle.
These operations should be done on a level surface.
lWhen removing a heavy component such as the engine or
transaxle/transmission, be careful not to lose your balance
and drop them. Also, do not allow them to strike adjacent
parts, especially the brake tubes and master cylinder.
lBefore starting repairs which do not require battery power:
Turn off ignition switch.
Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
lTo prevent serious burns:
Avoid contact with hot metal parts.
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot.
lBefore servicing the vehicle:
Protect fenders, upholstery and carpeting with appropriate
covers.
Take caution that keys, buckles or buttons do not scratch
paint.
lClean all disassembled parts in the designated liquid or sol-
vent prior to inspection or assembly.
lReplace oil seals, gaskets, packings, O-rings, locking
washers, cotter pins, self-locking nuts, etc. with new ones.
lReplace inner and outer races of tapered roller bearings and
needle bearings as a set.
lArrange the disassembled parts in accordance with their
assembled locations and sequence.
lDo not touch the terminals of electrical components which
use microcomputers (such as ECMs).
Static electricity may damage internal electronic compo-
nents.
