You get 10 tries and have to wait longer each time. 7 is about 10 minutes, 6 will be about half an hour. 1 is like 10 hours or something.
Hold AS down as you're turning it on then wait until it says 7 - - - -
Then you can enter code, if the code is 5678 you press button 1 5 times, button 2 6 times etc. then hold AS again.
If the code is wrong they can sometimes be derived from the serial number so don't pay any money yet.

Even if you are replacing the radio it will sell for more with a code.

You may need to wait half an hour or more.
I've just thought on as well - some older units need a different button? UML?
Hold this while you power up the unit then you don't need to keep holding it, just wait the time for 7 - - - - to appear.

This shows how to enter the code (box in bottom right) : http://ice.dndservices.co.uk/shop_show_item.php/MID/39/IID/461/PAGE/shop_decode_index.php
It is exactly the same procedure as the CAR300 (the model I have), and I have tried this and it works. Unfortunately it's basically the same as you've been told, have tried, and failed, but I thought I'd post it to confirm that this is the correct procedure.
