Road and traffic safety
Road and traf fic safety have absolute priority . Only operate your car
radio 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
from afar. For this reason, set the
volume of whatever you are listening to at a reasonable level.
Safety information
The car radio and the device's
control panel (flip-release panel) heat
up during use. Therefore, when removing the flip-release panel, only
hold it by its non-metallic surfaces.
Allow the car radio to cool down first
if you want to uninstall the whole unit.
Installation
If you want to install your car radio yourself, please read the installation and
connection instructions that follow these
operating instructions.

NOTES AND ACCESSORIES
THEFT PROTECTION
The radio cannot be switched on/off
using the remote control.
Amplifier
All Blaupunkt amplifiers can be used.
CD changer
The following CD changers can be obtained from accessory retailers for connection with this device: CDC A02, CDC
A 08, CDC A 072 und IDC A 09.
You can also connect the CDC A 071
CD-changer by using an adapter cable
(Blaupunkt no.: 7 607 889 093).
Compact Drive MP3
As an alternative to a CD changer, you
can connect a Compact Drive MP3 to
access MP3 music tracks. If you connect a Compact Drive MP3, you will first
need to use a computer to store the MP3
music tracks on the Microdrive™ hard
disk inside the Compact Drive MP3.
Then, when the Compact Drive MP3 is
connected to the car radio, you can play
the tracks like normal CD music tracks.
The Compact Drive MP3 is operated in
the same way as a CD changer. Most
of the CD changer functions can also
be used with the Compact Drive MP3.
Theft protection
Removable control panel
As a way of protecting your car radio
against theft, the unit is equipped with
a removable control panel (flip-release
panel). Without this control panel, the
car radio is worthless to a thief.
Protect your equipment against theft by
taking the control panel with you every
time you leave your vehicle. Do not
leave the control panel in 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 making direct skin contact
with the control panel’s contacts. If
necessary, clean the contacts with
a lint-free cloth soaked in alcohol.
