So aren't our radios supposed to into safe mode when battery is disconnected?
Finally had to change the battery on my '01
last night - took a couple hours due to several
mishaps (a dropped screw and a battery that was
a bit short), but when I got it back going, the
radio was fine. I've actually never seen it go into
safe mode. Ditto on the S4 whose battery I replaced
a couple months back.
When does it go into safe mode, then?

I disconnected my battery to get to my fan module. When i reconnected it, my radio was on "safe mode." Maybe it was because the battery was fully disconnected for an extended period of time? I was pissed my windows lost the auto up/down function, but i read the manual and reprogrammed them again. Also found out how to adjust the date/time!

Really? Is that something that needs to get done by the dealer?
Kinda funny that neither car would have it done, but given the ability of my Audi dealers, not terribly surprising....

I had my disconnected for 5 months Scot and it never went into safe mode.
Not sure but perhaps it when its removed from the vehicle.
Personally I was glad it didnt' do it. One less thing to figure out how to fix.
