Seat ibiza radio is in safe mode please help?

Answer 1

Turn on your radio, with no ignition on, the radioshould light up and say SAFE. (eg keys out of ignition)

Now leave it on, lock the car, then go away for a couple of hours. Then go back to the car. The radio should of shut off by itself, if it hasn't leave it until it does, has been known to take several hours, but on a first lock out, probably no more than 2 hours.

Once you see the radio has turned off, go back to the car, turn on the radio, it should flash SAFE then 1000, and follow the instructions as stated in your manual.. if you have lost your manual.........(and have the code) To enter the code according to the manual :

Switch the radio on, The display will briefly read "SAFE" followed by "1000"

Introduce your code by pressing number keys 1-4

eg, if the code was 1734 you would not press the number 1 button as this is already showing "1" in "1000" press number 2 button seven times, number 3 button 3 times and number 4 button four times.

Hope that makes sense

Confirm the code number by preessing and holding the "PROG" key until it beeps and the display reads "safe"
