Anti-Theft Code

General Information

Radio navigation system "RNS 510" is equipped with an electronic convenience anti-theft system which operates in conjunction with the instrument cluster.

After disconnecting the power supply, the radio navigation system is ready to be used again once the power supply is connected. The anti-theft code does not need to be entered again. The anti-theft coding must be activated for the first time and the radio navigation system must be connected in the same vehicle.

Reactivating a locked radio/navigation system is only possible by entering correct radio code number for anti-theft protection.

Use the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester to get the anti-theft code. The radio card and the label on the radio that were used in the past are no longer used.

Note

The Vehicle Diagnostic Tester must be "online" (connected to the network) in order to get the anti-theft code and the user must be authorized to access radio codes.

Anti-Theft Code, Deactivating

Special tools and workshop equipment required

• Vehicle Diagnostic Tester
• Vehicle Diagnosis System - Updated Cable - 3m -VAS5051/5a- or Vehicle Diagnosis System - Diagnostic Cable - VAS5051/6a- or Vehicle Diagnostic Tester - Diagnostic Cable - 5m -VAS5052/3-

Retrieving the Anti-Theft System Code Using the VAS Tester:

Select "Guided Functions" or "Guided Fault Finding".

After all control modules have been checked:

• Press the "GO TO" button.
• Select "Functions/Component selection".
• Select "Body".
• Select "Electrical Equipment".
• Select "01-OBD-capable system".
• Select "Radio navigation system".
• Select "Functions"
• Select and start "radio code inquiry".

Authorization will be requested from the system: Then the operating data, the VIN and the radio serial number of the radio and radio/navigation system will be automatically read out.

Note

When installing new radio / radio-navigation unit, or a unit which has not be adapted to the vehicle, it can happen that tester will not be able to read the serial number of the radio / radio-navigation unit. In this case, enter the serial number manually. The serial number can be found on a sticker on the unit and is also stamped into the side of the unit.

Then the anti-theft code will be displayed in the tester.

The radio navigation system anti-theft code must not be entered manually.

Deactivating the Anti-Theft Coding

• Enter the anti-theft code appearing in the display in the "RNS 510" number block and confirm it.

Unit is enabled and ready for operation.

Note

If anti-theft code is entered incorrectly twice, then the radio navigation system is locked for an hour. Leave radio navigation system and ignition switched on. The remaining running time appears in the radio navigation system display. After one hour, then the procedure for deactivating the anti-theft system can be repeated. Remember that you always have two attempts to enter the code. After that, the radio navigation system will be locked up for one hour.
