    It means that if your battery dies your radio will not work..................lol
    Your radio needs a code if it is disconnected from the battery.

    Did you buy your car new? If you did I don't know, must be like those fake ADT signs. If not the person who had the G b4 you must have replaced the radio with one from an 02-03

    judging by the fact that you have subs, im going to guess that you have an aftermarket radio, meaning the security feature doesnt apply

    It means if the factory radio is stolen it cannot be reactivated unless you have the code and even then thats iffy being installed into another vehicle.

    I've used Dual before but never owned one and they are just aight. I have owned both Kenwood and Pioneer and they are solid brands.
