Contents: Removal ↓ Installation ↓
The factory installed radio has a pocket that makes it easy to remove and install the radio. Two special keys are required to remove the radio.
The car is equipped with a radio receiver as standard equipment, which has a coded anti-theft device, which is based on a microprocessor. After disconnecting the radio receiver from the car's electrical network, (battery removal, radio removal or initial radio installation) you must enter a security code. The radio can only be turned on after entering the correct code.
Before removing the ground wire from the battery, check whether you have the radio receiver code. If you do not have the security code, the radio receiver can only be put into operation at a specialized Volkswagen station.
The individual security code for the radio receiver is included in the technical documentation included with the vehicle upon sale.
Removal
1. Turn off the ignition.
2. Remove the ground cable from the battery.
The original material is available on the portal VWMANUAL
Warning: When the ground wire is removed from the battery, the contents of the memory cells of the electronic control units and the radio receiver are erased.

3. To remove the radio, you need to use two special keys 3316.

Warning: If the security code has been entered incorrectly into the radio, the SAVE sign will first flash and then remain lit. After this, you can only repeat the process of entering the security code once.
