Unlocking the Theft-Deterrent Feature After a
Power Loss
Enter your secret code as follows; pause no more than
15 seconds between steps:
1. Turn the ignition on. “LOC” will appear
on the display.
2. Press MIN and “000” will appear on the display.
3. Press MIN again to make the last two digits agree
with your code.
4. Press HR to make the first one or two digits agree
with your code.
5. Press AM/FM after you have confirmed that the
code matches the secret code you have written down.
The display will show “SEC,” indicating the radio is
now operable and secure.
If you enter the wrong code eight times, “INOP” will
appear on the display. You will have to wait an hour with
the ignition on before you can try again. When you try
again, you will only have three more chances (eight tries
per chance) to enter the correct code before INOP appears.
If you lose or forget your code, contact your dealer.

If the code entered is incorrect, “SEC” will appear on

correct code is entered.
When battery power is removed and later applied to a
secured radio, the radio won’t turn on and “LOC” will
appear on the display.
