Entering the Security Code

Any time the navigation system loses power, you need to enter the 4-digit anti-theft code on the navigation system display. This 4-digit code is located on a small code card that was given to the customer. Enter the 4-digit code.

If the navigation system anti-theft code is missing, use the interactive Network (iN) to look it up. You need the serial number for the audio-navigation unit to do this.

You can view the serial number by entering the diagnostic mode. Select Unit Check from the main menu, then the ECU info diagnostic screen. This gives you the serial number without removing the audio-navigation unit.

The iN may display more than one code for a given serial number. This is because serial numbers are not unique. You may have to try more than one 4-digit code.

If no code is shown, or if the code (s) given do not work in the audio-navigation unit, contact the Automobile Warranty department. If the code 0000 works, replace the audio-navigation unit.

When replacing the audio-navigation unit, make sure you give the customer the new anti-theft security code.
