Anti-Theft Features

The BMW anti-theft radio circuitry is designed to essentially render the radio unusable if it is stolen. If the radio is subsequently electrically reconnected, it will not operate again until a five-digft security code assigned to that particular radio chassis is entered.

Note: This radio does not require any mounting bracket or installation clips for installation into the dash. A latch is built into both sides of the radio and is drawn into place with special tool P/N 88 88 1 600 143. For details see the attached installation instructions.
