Item one: When I went to get my car, I had to wait for a while until a finance guy was available to take my money. I passed the time by reading my new owner’s manual. My favorite part had to do with the radio’s security system.<\/p>\n

Your vehicle’s audio system will disable itself if it is disconnected from electrical power for any reason. To make it work again, you must enter a specific five-digit code in the present buttons.
