What you really have to read
Before you operate your new car radio, please read 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 radio
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.
Do not adjust your radio in difficult driving
conditions that demand your full attention.
Always make sure that you are still able to
hear any warning signals coming from outside of the vehicle, such as police or fire engine
sirens, so that you can react accordingly.
Installation/connection
In order to ensure that the set functions
properly it is necessary that the positive power supply line is connected to the ignition
and the permanent +12 V connector of the
car radio.
If you would like to install your new car radio
by yourself or add other audio components to
the existing ones, then please read carefully
the enclosed instructions on installation and
connection.

Optical indication of theft protection
When the car is stationary, you can let the
KeyCard tongue flash in order to indicate that
the set is equipped with security coding. Use
DSC to select one of two settings: LED ON or

KeyCard
The car radio can only be operated using
either KeyCard 1 or 2. Their codes are stored
in the unit.
Turn on the set and introduce the KeyCard
completely. The car radio is now ready for
operation. When inserting a wrong KeyCard,
the display will show “----”.

you have the corresponding KeyCard available.
Never try to pull out the KeyCard by force.
First, slightly press the card in. This releases
the KeyCard; the display shows
“LEARNING”. Now you can pull out the card.
Should the KeyCard be lost or damaged,
then please contact one of our authorised
service partners to get a new card.
The service centres are marked (
radio service centre list. In case of doubt,
please contact the central service centre in
your country for more information on the
KeyCard service centre closest to you.

store the following functions as desired:
bass, treble, balance and fader settings, preset stations, loudness, TA (traffic announcement volume), SPEECH (tone control for
speech programs), BEEP volume, SCANTIME, VOLFIX.
In addition to this, the settings activated before switching the radio off, such as the

tuning sensitivity will also remain stored.
When you insert your KeyCard, the basic
settings you have programmed will automatically be activated.

on.
• Slightly press the card and it will move
into the removal position. “LEARNING”
will then appear in the display.

KeyCard 2.
You can switch the radio on only after inserting either a KeyCard 1 or 2.
