The advice to which you refer is clearly general and not specific to the picasso, even though it appears on the picasso owners website. It states 'if the battery is under the bonnet' --- picassos have the battery under the front passenger seat.
During my 6 years of picasso ownership I disconnected the battery 3 times with no ill effects. I assume an owner looking to do diy repairs on a car has the common sense to keep a note of his radio code.
I think disconnecting the battery will probably cure the problem. It cured a similar one for me. The owners handbook contains all the advice you need about disconnecting.
