ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
The Mercedes-Benz AM and FM stereo radio with
cassette player and CD compatibility is fitted with a
built-in system designed to help render it
inoperative in case of theft. If the radio or battery is
disconnected, the radio will automatically be
disabled. To indicate this state, the word
CODE
will
appear on the radio's display. To render the radio
operable again, the correct five digit code must be
entered into the radio via its numbered station-recall
buttons. A code is reassigned to each radio and
supplied to the owner on a wallet-sized card.
RECODING SEQUENCE
To recede a radio, follow this procedure:
1. Turn ignition key to lock position one. 2. Turn on
the radio. The word CODE appears on the display
with the letter "C" flashing. 3. Enter the first digit of
the radio's anti-theft code as it appears on the code
card. The word CODE will disappear and the first
number that you have entered will be displayed,
followed by four dashes. e. g. 1
. 4. Enter
the rest of the five digit anti-theft code. Each
number will be displayed when it is keyed in. 5.
When all five anti-theft code numbers have been
correctly entered, the first number in the code
flashes, alerting you to confirm the code. Press the
Scan (SC) Seek or Tune button to confirm the code.
Radio operation will now resume.
INCORRECT CODE
If an incorrect anti-theft code digit is entered,
continue to enter numbers until the five-digit code is
correctly entered and displayed. If an incorrect code
is confirmed, the word
CODE
will appear again. The
system allows two more receding attempts. After the
third attempt, the word
WAIT
is displayed. A period
of 10 minutes must pass and the word
CODE
must
again be displayed before receding can be
successful. The radio must be left on during this
period. This measure is meant to prevent receding
of the radio by randomly entering numbers.
