Notices on correct functioning

To ensure the navigation system func­tions correctly, it is very important that
you calibrate it after installation (see
operating instructions / Setup - Basic
settings / Installation).

The system uses its connection with the
vehicle’s speedometer signal to determine
the distance driven along the route. If there
is no speedometer signal available, an
odometer must be fitted by an authorized
customer service centre.

In this case, you must purchase a sen­sor kit (odometer, magnetic strip, instal­lation bracket and plug) from your deal­er. Order no. 7 607 611 093

1. Electrical connection

1.1 Electrical connection to the
vehicle-specific plugs

If your car radio connection in your
vehicle has already been fitted at the
factory with 10 A fuse protection (see
operating instructions or your vehicle’s
fuse box), you will additionally need the
vehicle-specific adapter cable (see
Fig. 1).

A vehicle-specific adapter cable

must also be used even in vehicles
that are already fitted with ISO plugs.

2. Loudspeaker connection

2.1 Loudspeaker connection to
standard ISO plug

The loudspeaker connection is made
in chamber B (see Fig. 2).

If the vehicle is prefitted for a pas-
sive installation (with 4-ohm loud­speakers), you can convert the ISO
plug that is present in the vehicle. If
required, you can extend it using the
ISO cable (Order no. 7 607 647 093).

If the vehicle is prefitted for an ac-
tive installation, you can obtain spe­cial adapter cables from your dealer.

3. Antenna installation

3.1 Radio antenna

In the case of vehicles that have been
prefitted (e.g. VW, Seat, Audi), the sup­ply voltage for the antenna is provided
via the antenna cable (see the vehi­cle’s operating instructions). If you
want to replace the original equipment
radio with a standard radio, you must
obtain an antenna supply diplexer (Or­der no. 7 691 290 202) or the adapter
cable (Order no. 7 607 621 129) from
your dealer.

You will find details on installing and
connecting the antenna in the anten­na installation instructions.

After carrying out the installation, plug
the antenna cable into the socket des­ignated for this on the TravelPilot (see
Fig. 3).

3.2 GPS antenna (satellite naviga­tion)

You will find details on installing and
connecting the antenna in the supplied
antenna installation instructions.

You must take the following into ac­count if installing the GPS antenna in­side the vehicle:

The antenna requires a clear view of
as large an area of the sky as possible.

For this reason, the dashboard pro­vides a suitable installation position
directly behind the windscreen, as long
as the windscreen has no metallic coat­ing and the windscreen wipers do not
block the view.

The antenna should be installed in the
middle of the dashboard at a distance
of at least 2 cm from the windscreen.

Note: Despite these recommenda­tions, installing the GPS antenna in­side the vehicle is still unfavourable.
For this reason, no guarantee can be
given that the system will function cor­rectly.

After carrying out the installation, plug
the SMB plug into the socket designat­ed for this on the TravelPilot (see
Fig. 3).

4. TravelPilot installation

The TravelPilot is installed in the car
radio compartment designated by the
vehicle manufacturer.

For vehicles that do not have a DIN
compartment: Blaupunkt supplies
vehicle-specific installation kits (for
50/52 mm devices) for the most com­mon vehicle models. Therefore, please

96

check the situation inside the vehicle
as regards installation and, if neces­sary, use a vehicle-specific installation
kit to carry out the installation.

4.1 Fitting the installation bracket

The installation bracket that comes
with this TravelPilot allows the Travel­Pilot to be installed in vehicles fitted
with a DIN-size car radio compartment
(182 x 53 x 165 mm) and a dashboard
thickness near the mounting tabs of
1-20 mm (see Fig. 4). To install, you
must insert the mounting bracket into
the compartment and check which se­curing tabs on the bracket can be bent
over using a screwdriver (see Fig. 4a).

Note: Bend over as many of the se­curing tabs as possible.

4.2 Installing the TravelPilot in the
installation compartment

All plugs must be pushed into the
chambers until the side clips click into
place.

Caution! Before inserting the Travel­Pilot completely, you must first level out
the gyro (see Fig. 6).

Caution! TravelPilot installation posi­tion: right / left: min. -5° / max. +5°, front
to back: min. -10° / max. +30°.
