Security Code - Skoda Beat Manual

Security code

When the radio is switched off and the
key has been removed from the ignition,
the anti-theft system is activated. This
electronically prevents the radio from
being operated by unauthorized persons
in another vehicle.
If you have not received a device-specific
security code for your car radio, your
vehicle is fitted with a comfort coding
system for which you do not require a
code. If the battery has been disconnec-
ted and then reconnected, you must first
switch on the ignition with the key in the
ignition lock before you switch on the
radio. If nevertheless you wish to have a
code, please contact your service partner
or importer.
Comfort radio coding
When the radio is used for the first time,
the comfort coding stores the code num-
ber not only in the radio but also in the
vehicle.
Now, if the on-board voltage supply to
your vehicle is interrupted, when you next
switch on the radio it compares the inter-
nal number with the number in the vehi-
cle.
If these two numbers match, the radio is
immediately available for unrestricted
use. The code number is only requested
if the numbers do not match.
The code number should not be car-
ried in the vehicle but kept in a safe
place at home. Only then will the radio
be useless for a thief to steal.
Removing the electronic loc
Take the following steps, keep to the cor-
rect sequence and enter the correct code
number as quickly as possible. Please
also refer to page 4 "Comfort radio
coding".

on the display.

Wrong code number
If you inadvertently confirm the wrong
code number, the message "SAFE" flas-
hes on the display. After a few seconds
"1000" is displayed again. Now enter the
security code again as described above.
If a wrong code number is confirmed
again the radio is now locked for approxi-
mately an hour.
