How to enter the car radio unlock code in the Opel Corsa?

In the Opel Corsa C, for example after having remained with the battery on the ground, we will have to enter the unlock code in the car radio so that we can continue to use it. We can find the code in various ways: by checking the plate supplied with the purchase, by checking the back of the car radio itself or by contacting an Opel dealer. Once in possession of the code, turn on the instrument panel, hold down the AS button and simultaneously press the volume knob. Once the code entry field has appeared on the display, enter it using keys 1,2, 3, and 4. Continuous pressure on each key will allow us to enter a number from 0 to 9.
