Default Alarm Code When Removing Bose?

I have a 1996 C4 with a Bose Gold CD/Cass/Radio. All stock. I have been advised that if you remove the unit from the car without "knowing the security code" something bad will happen! Is this true? I see nothing in the owner's manual or my Haynes manual about such a precaution. If it is true, what is this code, where do I find out what my code is, and how do I manage removal and reinstallation?

Much thanks, and any advice is appreciated.

Even if you forget the code, you can go to the dealer to get the radio enabled again. No big deal.

I had no problems with my 91. Replaced head unit and speakers with a Clarion unit for about $420
