: Factory-fit Radio Security Code

I'm having a cellphone car kit installed in my newly delivered Patriot Limited CRD.
According to the audio manual, the factory-fit radio needs a code if the battery is disconnected from the set.

Checked with all the delivery documentation and there's no code noted - my wife's Commander had it stuck right over the SAT unit just where the docs said it would be.

I phoned the dealer and they claim that the RAQ has the code burned into the unit and I won't need to enter the code at all.

Naturally, I don't want to be without the radio / CD for any time at all (yes - driving the Pat is fun but it's even more fun with a good soundtrack)

Anyone know which is correct? Am I going to have to get a code from somewhere???

Thanks for your time!

No code needed.

turn key to on position and it will reset from the ECU.
