Bang & Olufsen 1 User Manual

Use the PIN code system

It is your own choice whether or not to 
activate the PIN code system. However, 
if you choose to activate the system, 
your BeoSound 1 is protected against 
theft with a fourdigit PIN code.

The use of a PIN code means that if your 
BeoSound 1 is disconnected from the 
mains for more than 30 minutes, the 
system can only be activated again by 
keying in your own personal PIN code.

If the PIN code is not entered, the 
BeoSound 1 automatically switches to 
standby after 3 minutes.

If a wrong PIN code is entered, you get 
five attempts to key in the code, after 
which the system is switched off and 
cannot be switched on for 3 hours.

Should you forget your PIN code, please 
contact a retailer who can assist you in 
receiving a Master code from Bang & 
Olufsen. You need the Master code to 
reactivate your BeoSound 1.

If the PIN code system is activated and your 
BeoSound 1 is disconnected from the mains, 
you are requested to key in the four-digit PIN 
code when the system is first switched on.
