I had some work done on my car recently, and the radio has gone into 'safe' mode. It's displaying the word SAFE. According to the manual you have to enter the security code, which I tried to do. It's now displaying SAFE with the number 2 in the bottom left of the display, and isn't responding to any button presses. How do I get it into a working state?

think when i first played around with mine during a ecu reset it happened like that,i just disconnected the battery again and waited an hour or so,then re connected and installed the code as normal,i think either Mork or Saul did a thread on this subject,try a search mate.
Turn key onto position 2 turn radio on
turn key to position 1 and leave till it says safe or 2000
Usually 30 mins ish

Cheers. The manual isn't clear. It was displaying 2000 and the instructions said to press and hold the Pty button. It's now showing "2 SAFE". I'll leave it an hour to reset.

The key only has two positions - on and starter motor!?!
There is no accessory position on SEAT's

Ok here it goes folks again, I'm helping because I was very frustrated with mine for a month. I got the following info from my dealer in Mexico via telephone. NO CHARGE. He informed me that the code might be under the ashtray. Pull out the ashtray and there might be a sticker under the ashtray with the code. It may be on the side of the radio unit or in the glove compartment. My code is 0777. Anyway turn your stereo on (car off) then wait for an hour!! no key inside ignition either! come back your display should have changed from SAFE to 1000. Then input the code first and then press the SCAN button and that's it!!! good luck, did mine yesterday!!!!
