How do I enter the Audi radio code into my specific radio?
Audi Symphony Radio

• Radio is on and appears in “SAFE” mode
• Simultaneously press the P.SCAN and RBDS buttons, holding them down, until “1000” lights up. Release the buttons. (If you continue to hold the button down or press the buttons again this will make the radio think your radio code is 1000, so don’t do that)
• Use the station buttons 1 through 4 to input the radio code. Press button one repeatedly until you arrive to the correct number (once would be one, twice would be two and so on.)
• Once you have entered the correct code in the display press the P.SCAN and RBDS simultaneously again, holding down until SAFE is displayed.
• The radio should now be working, but we can’t guarantee the commercials will be any better.

Audi Concert Radio

• Radio is on and appears in “SAFE” mode
• Simultaneously press the FM 2 and RDS buttons, holding them down, until “1000” lights up. Release the buttons. (If you continue to hold the button down or press the buttons again this will make the radio think your radio code is 1000, so don’t do that)
• Use the station buttons 1 through 4 to input the radio code. Press button one repeatedly until you arrive to the correct number (once would be one, twice would be two and so on.)
• Once you have entered the correct code in the display press the FM 2 and RDS simultaneously again, holding down until SAFE is displayed.
