Have just changed battery on audi A4. Now stereo display shows SAFF. I have code but don't know how to enter it. Can anybody help?

code is usually entered with numbers 1 to 4,each press of the button counts from 0 to 9,on a vw once the code is entered you press the search or manual button for longer than 2 seconds to confirm
 
1) Turn on radio and the radio display shows "SAFE", thus the problem.

2) Press the P.Scan and RBDS buttons simultaneously (at the same time) and hold until "1000" is displayed. Release the buttons but Do NOT press buttons again as the radio will think the "1000" is the code.

3) Use Preset buttons 1 through 4 to enter the four-digit code number from your radio card that you got when you bought the car. Preset button 1 corresponds to the first digit, preset button 2 corresponds to the second digit, and so on and so on.

4) Once the code shown on the display is correct you must press the P.Scan and RBDS buttons simultaneously and hold until the word "SAFE" appears in the display again. Once the word "SAFE" appears you can release the buttons.

4) The radio should unlock and be available shortly afterwards.

5) If an incorrect code is entered, the word "SAFE" appears, first flashing and then continuously. You can repeat the above steps to unlock the radio once more, the number of attempts will be shown in the display. If an incorrect code is entered again, you radio will be locked for about one hour. After one hour - the radio must stay on and the key must remain in the ignition lock - if the display goes out, the you can repeat the above procedure to unlock again. The cycle - two attempts, one hour lock-up - still applies.


Or.

SAFE mode unlock procedure for Delta head unit

1) Park car. (Note: Experienced radio unlockers have been known to perform this task while driving, but it is extremely dangerous and may result in a fatal crash. Not advised.)

2) Turn radio on. SAFE will show in the display. (Note: The car does not have to be on, nor does the key have to be in the ignition or in any position.)

3) Press the hold the FM1/2 and DX buttons simultaneously and hold until "1000" shows on the display. Release the buttons. Do NOT press these buttons again, otherwise the radio will consider "1000" to be the code.


4) Enter your radio code. Use the radio station preset buttons (1, 2, 3, 4) to enter the four-digit code number from your radio card. Preset button 1 corresponds to the first digit, Preset button 2 corresponds to the second digit, etc. Each press of the button increments the number by 1. So for example, if your code was 1927 you would press...

- 1 0 times
- 2 9 times
- 3 2 times
- 4 7 times

Which would show 1927 in the display.

5) Once the code is shown on the display press FM1/2 and DX buttons again SIMULTANEOUSLY until the word "SAFE" appears in the display. RELEASE all buttons

Google, amazing aint it.

Sorry to all for being in wrong section(only a novice).Still haven't got SAFE from display. Pressing PSCAN and RDS button didn't work and don't have a DX button. Any more suggestions?
