Important Notes
Anti-Theft Coding
What You Should Read By All
Means!
Before starting to use your new car radio, you
should carefully read through the safety notes and the information about “Anti-Theft
Coding”.
Safety Notes
Road Safety
Being the driver of a motor vehicle you should
dedicate your full attention to the traffic around
you. Therefore always use your car stereo
such that you are able to cope with the
present traffic situation in any moment.
In difficult driving situations you should turn
your set off. Please take into account that at
a speed of 50 km/h you are almost covering
a distance of 14 m per second!
When adjusting the volume, always make
sure that acoustic signals from the outside
can still be heard in order to be able to react
to alert signals just as it is required by the
present situation.
16
Your radio is protected against theft by an
anti-theft coding system. If, once the unit has
been encoded, the power is disconnected
from the set (e.g. theft, disconnection of the
car battery or prior to installation), the set is
electronically blocked. It may only be used
again after the appropriate code number has
been entered (see car radio pass). Hence, a
coded set is of no use to a potential thief.
Wrong Code Number Entered
It should not be possible for thieves to ascertain the code number by trial-and-error. This
is why the set is blocked for a certain period
of time if an incorrect code number is entered. “---” would then appear in the display :.
This time period is 10 seconds following the
first three attempts, and is increased to 1
hour following subsequent attempts.
After 19 unsuccessful attempts “OFF” will
appear in the display : and the set can no
longer be started.
Note:
Keep your car radio pass, which contains the
code number, in a safe place in order to avoid
“unauthorized access” to your car radio. If
you lose your radio pass and have forgotten
your code number you will not be able to
restart the set after the power supply has
been interrupted. The only way to make the
set operable again is by sending the radio to
our central customer service workshop or to
one of our dealers in your vicinity.
First-time Operation and Restart Following Interruption of Power Supply

Manual Tuning
It is also possible to tune in stations “by hand”
with this radio:
● Press rocker switch <</>> 3 to the left
or to the right. The frequency band is
scanned in small steps.
Adjusting the Station Seek
Sensitivity
You may also modify the sensitivity of the
automatic station seek operation.
For this:
● press lo rocker switch <.
If “lo” is indicated, only stations with
good reception conditions are captured
(lower sensitivity).
If “lo” is not indicated, stations with a
weaker reception are also captured
(higher sensitivity).
Adjusting the local mode sensitivity
In regions with extremely high station density, e.g. in Italy, the set allows you to switch
over the station seek sensitivity for the ocal
mode from “High” (adjusted ex works) to
“Low”. “Low” means that station seek tuning
only captures the most powerful stations.
For modifying the local mode:
● press button lo < longer than 8 secs.
The display : shows “L” for “Low”.
By pressing button lo < again longer than
8 secs., the set switches back to “High” (display : “H”).
When switching off the unit or when removing
the set with the QuickOut handle the set
remains in the last activated mode.
Switching between Stereo and
Mono
If you wish to switch between stereo and
mono:
● keep the lo button < pressed for long-
er than 2 seconds. The stereo symbol
will appear in the display : if the
stereo mode is activated.
The stereo function is activated auto-
matically when you turn your set on.
The set will automatically switch to
mono if reception is poor.

Storing a Station
You can store one MW and LW station and 4
FM stations on each of the preset buttons ;.
The display will show you the selected waveband (FM, MW or LW) and preset button.
On FM, the display will also give you the
chosen storage level (I, II, III or T).
If you wish to change from one storage level
to another:
● press the FM•T button >.
If you wish to store a station:
● (for FM only) select the storage level.
To achieve this, press the FM•T button
> until I,II,III or T appears in the display :.
● tune in the station (see chapter Station
Tuning).
● press the desired preset button ; until
the radio resumes play (approx. 2 seconds).
The display : indicates which preset
button has been pressed.
The station has now been stored.
Note:
When tuning in an already stored station, the
display : will show the corresponding preset button for approx. five seconds and the
respective storage level.
Automatically Storing the Strongest Stations
(Travelstore)
With Travelstore, you have the opportunity to
automatically store the six most powerful FM
stations of your local reception area and have
them sorted according to their frequencies.
This feature is of special use while travelling.
● Press the FM•T rocker switch > for at
least two seconds.
The set searches for the next FM stations and sorts them on the “T” (Travelstore) storage level. Once the process
is finished, the car radio tunes in to the
first station.
If required, it is also possible to manually
store a station on the Travelstore level. If less
than five stations can be received, the free
buttons are represented by dashes for a
short period of time.
Activating a Stored Station
If required, the memorized stations can be
activated at a keystroke.
● Choose the storage level.
For this, press FM•T > until the display : shows I, II or III, or T.
● Briefly press the required preset button
;.

If the following station is found, it is
reproduced for approximately eight
seconds.The station’s frequency starts
blinking on display :; if it has already
been memorized, the corresponding
preset button and the storage level indicator starts blinking on display :. Subsequently, the set starts searching for
the next station.
For selecting a sampled station:
● Press the knob 1 once again. The
Scan function is off.
After the search operation has been concluded, and no station has been chosen, the
radio starts playing the station from which

Appendix
Care Notes
We recommend C-60 and C-90 type tapes
for use in any automobile tape player; to
protect your tapes, store them in a cool place
away from dirt, dust, or excessive temperatures above 50° Celsius. In order to ensure
smooth tape operation, cold tapes should be
allowed to heat up a bit before they are
played. If dust collects on the audio head or
the rubber roller, problems related to rough
tape operation or poor sound quality may
occur after approx. 100 hours of operation.
For normal contamination, use a headcleaning cassette to remove the dust; for
more intensive contamination, use a cottonwool tip soaked with alcohol. Never use hard
tools!
