Your vehicle’s audio system will
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 bars or buttons
(depending on models). Because
there are hundreds of number
combinations possible f rom the f ive
digits, making the system work
without knowing the exact code is
nearly impossible.

lists your audio system code number
and serial number. It is best to store
this card in a saf e place at home. In
addition, you should write the audio
system’s serial number in this owner’s
manual.
If you lose the card, you must obtain
the code number f rom your dealer.
To do this, you will need the audio
system’s serial number.If your vehicle’s battery is discon-
nected or goes dead, or the radio
f use is removed, the audio system
will disable itself . If this happens,
youwillsee‘‘ ’’onthecenter

models) the next time you turn on
the system. Use the preset bars or
buttons (depending on models) to
enter the f ive-digit code. The code is
locatedontheradiocodecard
included in your owner’s manual kit.
When it is entered correctly, the
radio will start playing.
If you make a mistake entering the
code, do not start over; complete the
f ive-digit sequence, then enter the
correct code. You have 10 tries to
enter the correct code. If you are
unsuccessf ul in 10 attempts, you
must then leave the system on for 1
