Your Toyota radio will not operate once it is removed from the console, making it virtually useless to a thief. The only way to restore power to the radio once it is removed is to enter a six-digit security code unique to your radio. The anti-theft features of your radio operate as follows:
1.If radio displays “HELP” Skip to procedure 1A.
2.(If your radio displays "SEC" you must enter an incorrect 3 digit number until "HELP" is displayed. It makes no difference what the number is, so long as it is the incorrect number. The objective is to put radio into the "HELP" mode. This could take up to 9 times.
3.To enter a three digit code number:
·Press and hold down the (^) “tune up” and #1 preset button at the same time.
