>> Use the PIN code system
If you have used the same four-digit PIN code for
all your Bang & Olufsen products, you can easily
unlock them in one step – just remember to place
yourself in a position so all units are able to receive
the Beo4 remote control signals.
The PIN code in ‘daily use’…
In daily use you will not notice the PIN code
system. However, if the loudspeaker has been
disconnected from the mains for more than
15–30 minutes (or if there has been a longer
power failure in your area) the activated PIN
code system will only allow the loudspeaker to
play for approximately ve minutes before it
automatically switches to standby.
In this case, in order to unlock the loudspeaker,
you must key in your personally chosen PIN
code with a Beo4 remote control.
Should you enter a wrong PIN code, you only
have four more attempts to key in the correct
code, after which the loudspeaker is switched
off and cannot be switched on for three hours!
During these three hours the loudspeaker must
remain connected to the mains power.
To unlock BeoLab 5
If the loudspeaker is locked by the PIN code system
the indicator light slowly ashes red and green
when you switch on.
While BeoLab 5 is playing...
> Key in your four-digit PIN code on the Beo4
remote control*.
The loudspeaker conrms each digit with a
‘beep’.
If the PIN code is accepted, the indicator light now
shines green – indicating that the loudspeaker has
been unlocked.
If the PIN code is not accepted, the loudspeaker
emits a sound signal, and you will have to start over
again with the four-digit code.
*If you make a mistake, press STOP and then start
digit entry over again.
