I pushed the power button on the radio while the car was turned off and the
radio display showed CODE with the C - flashing. I pushed the radio preset
buttons and it the diplay showed the number 12345, however when I pushed
the power button on the radio off and then back on, a WAIT message came on
the display. Now the radio does not work (only displays the WAIT message)
and if I role down the windows they will not role back up unless I use the
key from the outside of the car. Does anyone know how to correct this
problem?

In your package you will find a card with the code number to be entered.
If have no code card your MB dealer can calculate it in the MB assist
system from the cars body number.

Depending on if the radio is the very same that was in the car when it
left factory.
