Vulnerable (Unarmed) System: Activation Of The Theft Deterrent Feature

The AM/FM tape and the AM/FM/tape/CD radios will be in the vulnerable state if the radio is new, remanufactured, or if the theft deterrent feature has been deactivated. To activate the theft deterrent feature, the following steps need to be followed:

  1. Turn the ignition key to ON.
  2. Turn the radio power OFF.
  3. Press and hold preset buttons 5 and 6, at the same time, for 5 seconds. The radio display will show "- - - -".
  4. Have the customer select a 4-digit code. Suggest a number that is familiar to them such as the beginning of their phone number, their birth date, or their address.
  5. Enter the 4-digit code by using the SEEK/SCAN and TUNE rocker buttons. The numbers will start at 0 0 0 0 and will increase on the display each time the corresponding side of the rocker button is pushed.
    1. Press the down arrow side of the SEEK/SCAN rocker button to change the left digit.
    2. Press the up arrow side of the SEEK/SCAN rocker button to change the second to left digit.
    3. Press the down arrow side of the TUNE rocker button to change the third digit.
    4. Press the up arrow side of the TUNE rocker button to change the last digit.
  6. Push the AM/FM button to store the code once the 4-digit code has been entered correctly.
  7. The display will show REP (repeat) requesting verification that the code was entered correctly.
  8. Again, enter the same four digit code by using the SEEK/SCAN and TUNE rocker buttons. The numbers will start at 0 0 0 0 and will increase on the display each time the corresponding side of the rocker button is pushed.
    1. Press the down arrow side of the SEEK/SCAN rocker button to change the left digit.
    2. Press the up arrow side of the SEEK/SCAN rocker button to change the second to left digit.
    3. Press the down arrow side of the TUNE rocker button to change the third digit.
    4. Press the up arrow side of the TUNE rocker button to change the last digit.
  9. Push the AM/FM button to store the code once you are finished reentering your personal 4-digit code
  10. If everything has been entered correctly, the display will indicate that the radio is secure by displaying SEC. The radio will then return to normal operation, but will now be in the Armed Mode

If the radio displays "Err1", "Err2", or "LOCK", then the radio is already in the secure state and is armed with a different code other than the code that was entered. Proceed to the appropriate part of this Theft Deterrent section to deactivate the system if deactivation is desired.
