3) Fully depress the accelerator pedal and
keep it pressed. The warning light U will

after it has flashed for the same number of
times as the first digit on the code of the
card, press completely and hold down the
accelerator pedal until the warning light U

again; now release the accelerator pedal.

of times as the second digit on the code
of the card, press completely and hold down
the accelerator pedal.
6) Repeat this procedure in the same way
for the other digits on the CODE card code.

Uturns on (for four seconds) and then goes
off; now release the accelerator pedal.
8) A quick flash of the warning light U
(for appr. 4 seconds) confirms that the operation
has taken place correctly.

from the MAR position to the AVV position
without returning the key to the STOP
position.

on, turn the ignition key to STOP and repeat
