Use the PIN code system
The loudspeaker has a built-in PIN code
protection system. You decide whether
or not to activate it.
If you choose to activate the PIN code
system, and if the loudspeaker is
disconnected from the mains for more
than 15–30 minutes, it will only play for
a five minute period upon reconnection
– and then automatically switch to
standby. In this case, you must key in
your own personally chosen PIN code
with a Beo4 remote control, to unlock
the loudspeaker
PIN code system setup
For your own convenience we suggest that
you choose the same four-digit PIN code for all
your Bang & Olufsen products. However, you
cannot use the code ‘0000’, as this is reserved
for use when deactivating the PIN code system.
To activate the PIN code system
You activate the PIN code system for each
loudspeaker in your setup separately.
While BeoLab 5 is in standby...
> Press , , and STOP in quick succession on the
Beo4 remote control.
The indicator light shines intermittently red
(0.5 sec.) and green (1 sec.).
> Within 10 seconds, press the touch field on top
of the loudspeaker you wish to activate. The
loudspeaker confirms your selection with a
sound signal.
> Key in a four-digit PIN code of your own choice*.
The loudspeaker confirms each digit with a
sound signal.
> Press the GO (PLAY) button to accept your code.
The loudspeaker confirms this with a sound
signal.
> To confirm your chosen code, key in the four-
digit code again*.
The loudspeaker again confirms each digit with a
sound signal.
> Press the GO (PLAY) button to store your code.
The loudspeaker confirms this with a sound
signal.
If the PIN code is accepted, the indicator light
shines red for a while.
If it is not accepted, the loudspeaker emits a sound
signal, and you will have to start over again with
the four-digit code.
*NOTE! If you make a mistake, press STOP and
then start digit entry over again.
Press the touch field on the loudspeaker you wish
to activate (while you are pressing the field, the
indicator light quickly flashes red).
If you wish to skip an ongoing activation, you can
do so by touching the touch field again (or
pressing BACK on the Beo4 remote control).
We recommend that you disconnect your other
Bang & Olufsen products in the room from the
mains while setting-up the PIN code system. This
prevents them from, for example, switching on,
when you press the buttons on the Beo4 remote
control.

sound signals, refer to page 17.
