I read an exact same question on here about a Grundig CAR 200 radio being stuck in SAFE mode and tried the answer but it didn't work? I held down the AS and turned on the ignition waiting for the beep from the radio but nothing! This is so frustrating!! Shortly after I got my car the battery was disconnected and I had to put in my code which was fine. This time the fuse was taken out and it's gone into SAFE mode and I'm not able to put my code in? Can anyone help? Much appreciated.

John....It means theres a fault. Read your manual to find out what it is. I had this problem too once. It's quite common...thats why i bought a vw golf in the end!
