Important notes

What you need to know

Before using your new car radio, 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
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.
Should the traffic situation become particu­larly demanding, we advise you not to use
the radio.
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 radio
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.

In order to ensure that the set operates prop­erly the positive power supply line must be
connected via the ignition and the perma­nent +12 V lead.

Do not ground the loudspeaker outputs!

Telephone mute

If you have installed a mobile telephone in
your vehicle, radio or CD playback can be
muted automatically when you use the
phone (telephone mute).

“PHONE” will then appear in the display.
If TA is active, traffic messages will always

have priority. To end the announcement
before it has finished press the TA button.

Accessories

Use Blaupunkt-approved accessories and
spare parts only.

You can use the following Blaupunkt prod­ucts with this car stereo:

Amplifier

can control all of the important functions of
your car hi-fi system from the steering wheel.
