Use the PIN code system
The loudspeaker has a built-in PIN
code protection system. You decide
whether or not to activate it.
If you choose to activate the PIN
code system, and if the loudspeaker
is disconnected from the mains for
more than 15–30 minutes, it will
only play for a five minute period
upon reconnection – and then
automatically switch to standby. In
this case, you must key in your own
personally chosen PIN code with a
Beo4 remote control, to unlock the
loudspeaker.
PIN code system setup
For your own convenience we suggest that
you choose the same four-digit PIN code for
all your Bang & Olufsen products. However,
you cannot use the code ‘0000’, as this is
reserved for use when deactivating the PIN
code system.
To activate the PIN code system
You activate the PIN code system for each
loudspeaker in your setup separately.

The loudspeaker confirms your selection with a
sound signal.
> Key in a four-digit PIN code of your own
choice*.
The loudspeaker confirms each digit with a
sound signal.
> Press GO to accept your four-digit code.
The loudspeaker confirms this with a sound
signal.
> To confirm your chosen code, key in the four-
digit code again*.
The loudspeaker again confirms each digit with
a sound signal.
> Press GO to store your four-digit code.
The loudspeaker confirms this with a sound
signal.
If the PIN code is accepted, the indicator light
shines red again – indicating that the loudspeaker
is in standby and ready for use.
If it is not accepted, the loudspeaker emits a
sound signal, and you will have to start over again
with the four-digit code.
Press the touch field on the loudspeaker you wish
to activate (while you are pressing the field, the
indicator light quickly flashes red).
If you wish to skip an ongoing activation, you can
do so by touching the touch field again (or
pressing EXIT on the Beo4 remote control).
We recommend that you disconnect your other
Bang & Olufsen products in the room from the
mains while setting-up the PIN code system. This
prevents them from, for example, switching on,
when you press the buttons on the Beo4 remote
control.
For an overview of the indicator lights and the
sound signals, refer to page 17.
*NOTE! If you make a mistake, press STOP and
then start digit entry over again.
