Anti-theft coding
Anti-theft coding
The radio navigation system „SEAT Media System 3.1“ is equipped with an electronic anti-theft convenience system which operates in combination with the instrument panel.
After disconnecting the radio navigation system's voltage supply, system operation is restored when reconnecting the voltage supply without entering the code number. The prerequisites are that initial activation of the anti-theft coding has been performed and the radio/navigation system is reconnected in the same vehicle.
A blocked radio/navigation system can only be returned to normal operation by entering the correct code number for the anti-theft coding.
The anti-theft code can be determined by means of the vehicle diagnosiss tester. The radio card used in the past and the sticker on the radio have been discontinued.
  Note
To determine the anti-theft code, the vehicle diagnosiss tester must be „online“ (connected to network). The user must have valid authorisation for the programme to request anti-theft codes.
