Theft Deterrent Feature: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The U1C, UR9, and UP0 are equipped with a programmable theft deterrent feature. When the radio has the SEC (armed) mode activated, the radio will enter the LOCK (locked) mode if the power between the battery and the radio is interrupted for more than 20 seconds. While in the locked mode, "LOCK" appears on the radio display and all radio functions are disabled.
When the vehicle is first purchased or the radio is new or remanufactured, the theft deterrent feature is unarmed. If desired, the customer must program a four-digit code into the radio to activate the theft deterrent feature.
