1. Turn on your radio.
2. Press and hold the "Menu" button until the display shows "OFF CODE".
3. Enter your six-digit code using the radio's presets buttons.
- To choose a number, push the corresponding preset button that matches the number (eg Preset 1 button for the number “1”).
- Each push increments the number displayed.
- To confirm the number, wait a few seconds to see if the number is highlighted in a contrasting background color such as black or red.
- If the number is not highlighted, push the same preset number button again to confirm the number entry.
4. Press the "ENTER" button.
If you entered the correct code, the radio will turn on. If you entered the wrong code, the display will show "CODE ERROR". Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you enter the correct code.
If you have lost your code, you can retrieve it from your local Volvo dealership.
Here are some additional tips for fixing the OFF code on your 850 Volvo radio:
- Make sure that you are entering the correct code. The code is case-sensitive and must be entered in the correct order.
- If you are still having trouble entering the correct code, try disconnecting the battery for a few minutes and then reconnecting it. This will reset the radio and may clear the OFF code.
- If you still cannot fix the OFF code, you may need to take your radio to a professional repair shop.
