Traffic Safety and Precautions
l Do not adjust your unit in difficult driving conditions that demand your full attention.
l As the driver of a motor vehicle, it is your responsibility to pay attention to the traffic situation at all
times. Never use your unit in a way that could distract you.
l 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.
l If your vehicle was parked in direct sunlight resulting in a considerable rise in temperature inside
the vehicle, allow the unit to cool off before operating your unit.
l You are cautioned that any changes or modifications not expressly approved in this manual could
void your warranty.
l Car Wash precaution If you have a motorized antenna, make sure to turn off the unit not just
the tuner that the antenna is lowered and antenna damage is prevented.
Detachable
Detaching Attaching the Face:
The face of this unit can be detached and taken with you to prevent it from being stolen.
Detaching the Face:
Press the (Release) Button and detach the face by gently pulling it off as illustrated.
Note: Do not pull it straight out from the chassis. Be sure not to drop the face when detaching it
from the chassis.
Attaching the Face:
Apply the right hand side of the face to the chassis by sliding (part B) of the face to (part A) at the
front of the chassis. Gently push the left side of the face against the front of the chassis until it
snaps into place.
Note: Make sure that the face is inserted right side up. Do not press against the display window.
Do not press hard against the face when attaching it to the chassis, it may be easily attached with
gentle pressure. Do not expose the face to direct sunlight, heat sources such as hot air ducts or
leave it in a humid place. Never leave it on the dash board of a vehicle parked in direct sunlight,
where there may be a considerable rise in temperature inside the vehicle.
Affixing Faceplate For Retail Display:
The faceplate can affixed to the unit’s chassis, which is desirable for a retail display, for
example.

Electrical Connections and Installation
To avoid the aggravation of costly mistakes and serious damage that could make
you feel this way, please carefully read all of the instructions before you begin. Carefully follow all
instructions. You’ll be glad you did!
GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
l If you’re not confident that you can install the unit correctly, have it installed by a qualified
Blaupunkt installation technician.
l Use this unit only with negative ground 12 Volt (11-16 Volt) direct current (DC).
l Be sure to detach the faceplate before you start to connect or install the unit.
l We recommend making and testing all electrical connections before installing the unit. Connect
the leads (wires) according to instructions and diagram below.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS
Disconnect the vehicle battery’s negative terminal before making connections.
1.
Connect the speakers and/or external amplifiers (if you have any) following the guidelines in
2.
the SPEAKER CONNECTION section below.
Connect the blue (trigger output) lead to an amplifier’s trigger input terminal and/or antenna
3.
motor trigger input terminal (if you have either or both of these items). The combined total
amperage required for triggering the antenna motor and/or amplifier must not exceed 300
DO NOT connect the blue lead to the antenna’s and/or amplifier’s power supply input.
Connect the black (power ground) lead to a grounded metal part on the vehide. We
4.
recommend grounding all audio system black ground leads (head unit, amplifier, etc.)
to a common grounding point, preferably a non-painted surface under the instrument panel.
Connect the yellow (constant power) input lead to a source of constant battery power,
5.
preferably a terminal to an appropriate slot in the fuse box.
6.
Connect the red (turn-on power) input lead only after the other leads are connected. Be sure to
connect the red lead to a positive (+) 12 Volt power terminal that is energized only when the
ignition key is set to the on position or accessory position.
7.
Cover the ends of any unused leads with electrical tape. This will prevent them from touching
the vehicle or each other and causing a short-circuit and damage to the radio or vehicle.
8.
Reconnect the vehicle’s battery.
9.
Verify that no fuses have blown.
10. Plug the harness into the unit.
11. Attach the faceplate and test the unit.
Once the connections have been successfully made, you can begin to mount the unit.
SPEAKER
The unit’s Dual-Level Fader allows you to fade between the front and rear channels using either
the front and/or rear speaker leads and/or the rear preamp outputs, providing you tremendous
flexibility in configuring your speaker arrangement:
You can connect a speaker (regular, co-axial or tri-axial speakers or component speaker system,
all hereafter referred to simply as “speaker”) to each of the units’ four pairs of speaker leads.
You can connect the 2 RCA preamp outputs to multiple external amplifiers and power multiple
speakers or speaker systems through the amplifiers. (Blaupunkt amplifiers and speakers
separately). To add front preamp output, purchase Blaupunkt part 8634494218.
You can use a combination of these two methods.
Connecting the Speaker Leads
To prevent short circuits or serious damage to the unit speakers:
l Connect the speaker leads only as indicated in the wiring diagram. Disconnect the vehicle
battery’s negative terminal before making connections.
l Only use speakers that have impedance ratings of 4 ohms or higher and have power-handling
capabilities greater than the head unit’s stated power level.
l The unit’s internal amplifier is designed to handle a load on each pair of speaker leads.
l DON’T connect two speakers to a single pair of speaker leads (“in parallel”) unless both speakers
each have at least 8 ohms impedance.
