Please read these operating instructions before using the equipment for

Road safety
Road safety has absolute priority. Only operate your car sound
system if the road and traffic conditions allow you to do so. Familiarise yourself with the device before
setting off on your journey.
You should always be able to hear
police, fire and ambulance sirens in
good time from inside your vehicle.
For this reason, listen to your car
sound system at a suitable volume
level during your journey.
Safety notice
The car sound system and the
device’s control panel (flip-release
panel) heat up during use.
Therefore, when removing the fliprelease panel, only hold it by its nonmetallic surfaces. Allow the car
sound system to cool down first if
you want to uninstall the whole unit.
Installation
If you want to install your car sound
system yourself, please read the installation and connection instructions that
follow these operating instructions.
Accessories
Only use accessories approved by
Blaupunkt.
Remote control
The RC 08, RC 10 or RC 10H remote
controls (available as optional accessories) allow you to access most of the
main functions of your car sound system safely and conveniently.
You cannot switch the device on/off using the remote control.
Amplifiers
You can use all Blaupunkt and Velocity amplifiers.

NOTES AND ACCESSORIES
THEFT PROTECTION
CD changers
You can obtain the following CD changers from accessory retailers for connection to this device: CDC A 03, CDC
A 08 and IDC A 09.
Compact Drive MP3
You can connect the Compact Drive
MP3 instead of a CD-changer in order
to play MP3 music tracks. If you decide to connect a Compact Drive MP3,
you will first need to use a computer to
store the MP3 music tracks on the
Microdrive™ hard disk that is inside the
Compact Drive MP3. Then, when the
Compact Drive MP3 is connected to
the car sound system, you can play the
tracks like normal CD music tracks.
The Compact Drive MP3 is operated
in a similar way to a CD-changer. Most
of the CD-changer functions can also
be used with the Compact Drive MP3.
Activating / deactivating demo

The device is supplied from the factory with demo mode activated. The various functions of the device are displayed graphically as animations in the
display during demo mode. You can
also deactivate demo mode.
➮ Press and hold down the MENU
button 9 for longer than four seconds to activate/deactivate demo
mode.
Theft protection
Detachable control panel
Your device is equipped with a detachable control panel (flip-release panel)
as a theft protection measure.
The device is worthless to a thief without this control panel. Protect your device against theft by taking the control
panel with you whenever you leave
your vehicle. Do not leave the control
panel inside your vehicle - not even in
a hiding place. The control panel has
been designed to be easy to use.
Note:
● Never drop the control panel.
● Never expose the control panel to
direct sunlight or other heat sources.
● Store the control panel in the sup-
plied case.
● Avoid direct skin contact with the
control panel’s electrical contacts.
If necessary, clean the contacts
with a lint-free cloth and some alcohol.
