disable itself if it is disconnected
f rom electrical power f or any reason.
To make it work again, you must
enter a specif ic f ive-digit code with
the Preset buttons. Because there

combinations possible f rom the f ive
digits, making the system work
without knowing the exact code is
nearly impossible.
