Electronic anti-theft coding
Electronic anti-theft coding
The navigation system is equipped with Convenience electronic anti-theft lock, which operates in combination with the dash panel insert.
The navigation system is protected against theft with a safety code.
For navigation systems mounted at the factory, the safety code is only entered in the respective vehicle when it is first put into service. The safety code does no longer have to be re-entered when subsequently disconnecting and re-connecting the battery or when removing and re-installing the navigation system in the same vehicle. If it is installed in another vehicle or the dash panel insert is replaced, the safety code must be entered again.
The navigation systems in the vehicles are locked at the factory before delivery to the dealers.
Before the vehicle is handed over to the customer, the anti-theft code of the navigation system must be deactivated by entering a safety code.
The safety code can be read via the online connection with → Vehicle diagnostic tester (network connection).
The user must have a valid authorisation for the use of a programme to determine the coding of the navigation system.
Additional information → Operating instruction of the navigation system.
  Note
t  If an incorrect safety code is entered, it can be corrected immediately at the next attempt. If an incorrect safety code is entered once again, the navigation system is blocked for 1 hour.
t  After one hour has elapsed, during which the navigation system as well as the ignition must remain switched on (the time which has elapsed since the lock was activated is shown in the display of the navigation system), the procedure for deactivating the electronic anti-theft coding can be repeated (always two attempts, then locked for one hour).
