How to remove the "Safe 2" message from a Volkswagen car radio

Model: Volkswagen Volkswagen Various
Part: Car stereo

If we have changed the battery on our Volkswagen car, or if we have done some work that required disconnecting it, when the cables are reconnected, our original Volkswagen radio will show us the message "Safe 2". We will need the radio code to enter, which should be in the owner's manual, or in the service manual, or in the glove compartment. If we don't have it, we can try to find it on the website instant-radio-code.com, by entering the full chassis number. Or we can try the YouTuber's way, who after the maximum number of attempts, waited the prescribed hour and a half and by entering the code 1000, made the radio work.
