New battery help

2003 x350 petrol.
I need to fit a new battery, will I need to put a code in for the radio and if so what is the precedure for this. Also do I have to reset anything when it's done. Thought I'd do a hard reset whilst I'm at it so would like to know the correct procedure for this too.
Many thanks

You may loose your milage and mpg readings for Trip A and Trip B, so note them down beforehand if they are important to you. However, they do take a minute or two to go and as it happens I didn't loose mine when I changed my battery, but I can't remember now whether the radio needed the code or not.

When I switched batteries on my 05, I didn't need to reset the radio code. I did loose all the radio station memories and tripmeter readings. If you do loose the radio, do you have the code in your owners manual? If not, I believe a dealer must get it for you. On my Mercedes they needed the serial number on the radio itself to get it.
