CheckboxSelectMultiple widget not ticked correctly according to loaded CharField value

So I have a form:
class ProjectUpdateForm(ModelForm):
    products = MultipleChoiceField(label = u'Products', widget=CheckboxSelectMultiple)
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        self.fields['products'].choices = [(x.code, x.name) for x in Product.objects.order_by('code')]
    ....

which was referenced from a view:
class ProjectUpdateView(UpdateView):
    model = Project
    form_class = ProjectUpdateForm
    ....

The products field can be created from a similar form successfully and saved to database CharField as a list of values. Eg. [u'A01', u'A02']. But for this update view, the corresponding checkboxs always keep unchecked, neglecting the field value of the model object.

What did I miss? Thanks in ad!
