I know its not GSish but a lot of us have tin boxes as well.

I have been given an Audi Concert radio, made by Blaunpunct, (the one with the push button rotary volume knob in the middle.
When I power it up the display immediately shows "SAFE" and won't allow me to input the security code which i do have by the way.

Does anyone have the instruction book handy to tell me whats going on?

Thanks for any help
Sherpa ;)
 
Sounds like someone else has already tried to put the code in and got locked out. Don't know whether these are on a timed basis or simply block you until it's reset by Blaupunkt....
 
From http://www.audi-forums.com/t4863-blaupunkt-concert-help-please-33.htm

Repeating from the manual. The instruction can be found in the Concert Sound System Operating manual, Page 40. It’s for Concert II audio. Hope you got the same one.
Just one question: How do you know Concert Audio is manufactured by Blaupunkt?

Press “SCAN” and the RDS buttons (1 & 6) at the same time and hold until 1000 appears in the display

Then release both buttons. Do not press the SCAN or RDS buttons again ot keep holding them down, other wise the number 1000 will be registered as the first attempt, and you will only have one more attempt to repeat the procedure.

Enter the code number given on the radio card using the station selector buttons 2 to 5 - button 2 for the first digit, 3 for the second and the so on.

Press SCAN & RDS button at the same time again to confirm the code number. The word SAFE will appear in the display

Then release both buttons. A radio frequency will then appear automatically in the display after a short delay. The radio is now ready for use.

Incorrect code number

If an incorrect code number is entered by mistake when reactivating the radio, the word SAFE will start flashing and then appear continuously.

The entire procedure now can be repeated once again. If the wrong code is entered again, the radio will be disabled for an hour.

After this period (the radio must be left switched on) the number of attempts shown on the display will go off and the radio can be reactivated again as described earlier.

The same cycle of two attempts, followed by a one hour interval, can be repeated again if you find yourself really stupid. :P

Unfortunately you gotta contact Audi dealer if you don’t have the correct code or have lost it.

Hope that helps.
 
the code is in your handbook - it should have a little booklet with the radio/cassette or cd instructions and inside that there should be a 4 digit code...
 
what MMC said - but some folk have had to wait 2 hours before they could re-enter the code...
 
We had a SKY card at work a good few years back, used to get static and locked out of various channels(!)....

An hour in the freezer used to do the trick :dabone
 
still looking

Anyone help out with the code business as the original one doesn't work. Ive got some code software but it doesn't work with the Audi serial number starting AUZ1 The radio is maunufactured by Blaupunkt as I said but badged up for Audi
Anyone got some helpful advice or know a code cracker?

Thanks again
Sherpa ;)
