The Porsche Car Stereo will have an access code that must be entered anytime it is disconnected. This code should be the user manual. If you don't have a code, most porsche dealers can provide it to you, usually after providing proof that you own the car. When you turn on the stereo, the CODE will appear on the stereo display. Just enter the Numbers for each line that is displayed.

It is important to remember to turn off the car and remove the key from the ignition before disconnecting the car stereo. Failure to do so could lead to problems with the vehicle's communication system or even trigger the vehicle's safety system.
