I believe it depends on what stereo you have...

you need the carpass which should have come with the car, this contains the radio code. If you don't have one take your log book to a Vauxhall dealer for a car pass, cost ranges from £20-50 depending on the stealer.

If you have the code, switch on the ignition, press and old the AS button till it beeps, it will show a number (10) this is the number of attemtps you have.

Then 4 dashes, use the radio buttons 1,2,3,4 and use each number to select the number. If that makes sense, press the button "1" three times say and that will give you three as the first number.
