Radio Theft Protection - Honda 2011 CR-V Owner's Manual

Radio Theft Protection

Your vehicle's audio system will
disable itself if it is disconnected
from electrical power for any reason.
To make it work again, you must
enter a specific code using the preset
buttons (icons on vehicles with
navigation system). Because there
are hundreds of number
combinations possible from specific
digits, making the system work
without knowing the exact code is
nearly impossible.
You should have received a card that
lists your audio system's code and
serial numbers. It is best to store this
card in a safe 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 from a dealer. To
do this, you will need the system's
serial number.

If your vehicle's battery is
disconnected or goes dead, the audio
system will disable itself. If this
happens, you will see ''ENTER
CODE'' in the frequency display the
next time you turn on the system.
Use the preset buttons to enter the
code. On vehicles with navigation
system, touch the icon to enter the
code number, then touch the Done
icon to set the code. The code is on
the radio code card 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
sequence, then enter the correct
code. You have 10 tries to enter the
correct code. If you are unsuccessful
in 10 attempts, you must then leave
the system on for 1 hour before
trying again.
The system will retain your AM and
FM presets even if power is
disconnected.
