Note:
A “Searching and verifying” message will be displayed for up to 20 minutes, this is
normal. Once the searching and verifying message is gone, a “Press the Key
Sequence" screen may be displayed, DO NOT press Cancel if displayed. It is important
to press the displayed button press sequence on the screen to start the update. This
requires the displayed button press sequence to be followed in proper order. Please
note that each button press requires a momentary press of the right “seek up” or left
“seek down” button. If any wrong key presses occur, it may be necessary to start the
USB programming process over again by removing the USB stick and reinserting it in
order to do a Search & Verify again. If this does not restart the Search & Verify
process, it may be necessary to remove the radio fuse for 30 seconds, re-insert the
fuse, and start the USB programming process again.
