Important notes

What you need to know

Before using your new car audio system, please read through the following information carefully.

Traffic safety

As the driver of a motor vehicle, it is your responsibility to pay attention to the traffic situation at all times. Never use your car audio system in a way that could distract you.

Please keep in mind that you travel a distance of 14 m per second at a speed of only 50 km/h.

Should the traffic situation become particularly demanding, we advise you not to use the audio system.

Always make sure that you are still able to hear any warning signals coming from outside the vehicle, such as police or fire engine sirens, so that you can react accordingly.

Consequently, you should always select a moderate volume for playing your car audio system while you are driving.

Installation

If you would like to install your new car stereo yourself or add other audio components to existing ones, then please read the enclosed instructions on installation and connection carefully.

Telephone mute

If a car phone has been installed, it is possible to mute radio, cassette and CD playback automatically during a telephone call (telephone mute). “PHONE” will then appear in the display.

Traffic announcements continue to have priority if you have activated TA. You can interrupt traffic messages by pressing TA.

Amplifiers

KeyCard theft protection system

This car radio comes equipped with one KeyCard, but it can also be operated with a second card.

If you have lost your KeyCard or if it was damaged, you can buy a new one from your specialised dealer.

If you use two KeyCards, the settings stored on the first card will be transmitted to the second. However, you can individually store the following functions:

Preset button assignments, bass, treble, balance and fader settings, Loudness, TA (traffic announcement volume), beep volume, LOW-EQ, HIGH-EQ.

In addition, the settings activated before the radio is switched off, such as the waveband, station, TA priority, AF, REG ON/OFF, SCANTIME, seek tuning sensitivity, ON VOL and SHARX will also remained stored.

This ensures that you will find your basic settings re-adjusted automatically as soon as you have inserted your KeyCard.

Putting the unit into operation

Turn on the set with ON.

To insert the KeyCard, unlock the operating panel by

pressing 1, the operating panel will fold down.
