Operating and Installation Instructions

CAUTIONS
Proper system planning is vital in order to maximize the
device’s performance and road safety. Plan your installation carefully to avoid compromising performance reliability of the system. Consult an authorized Blaupunkt
dealer for installation or reparation. Read the manual
carefully before operating the device for the rst time.
Safety Notes
Ensure to follow below safety notes during
installation and wiring connection : -
•
Disconnect the negative terminal of the
battery. Refer to the safety notes of vehicle
manufacturer.
•
Ensure positions of the holes are nowhere
near the vehicle component to avoid any
damage during drilling.
•
Ensure cross section of the cable is no less
than 2.5mm if the positive and negative
cables are too long.
•
Incorrect installation may result in
malfunction of the device or the car sound
system.
Installation and Connection Instructions
•
Select a dry and well-ventilated location
to install the device.
•
The device must not be installed in overly
exposed location such on the rear shelf,
rear seat etc.
•
The installation location must be suitable for
screw holes and have stable ground support.
Voltage Supply
•
Use the supplied power extension cable to
connect to the positive battery terminal.
•
Firmly and carefully connect the ground lead
to a bare metal point on the vehicle chassis.
•
The control of the device should be a
two-channel control, either via the preamplier
outputs or the loudspeaker, output of the car
sound system.
•
A control solely via the right or left channel is
also possible since the low-frequency portion
of the music is generally identical on both
channels.
Integrated Fuse
The integrated fuse in the device protects the
output voltage and the entire electrical system in
case of malfunction. Do not replace damaged
fuse with higher current.
Switching On/O
This device will automatically turn on if a music
signal is detected. The device will also
automatically turn o if no music signal is received.
Remote Control
Gain adjustment :
•
Turn the gain knob to adjust
the volume to the desired
level.

Solutions
Examine if the ground connection is intact.
Examine if remote input has at least 5V DC.
Examine if battery power is connected correctly to the + terminal.
Ensure supplied voltage is minimum 12V.
Examine if fuse is broken and replace if necessary.
Restart the device if protection LED light is on.
Examine speaker wire had short-circuit.
Turn volume down from head unit to prevent overdriving the device.
Device might need service or repair, if protection LED light is still on after
resetting the device.
Examine fuses and replace if necessary.
Examine ground connection if intact.
Examine if remote input has at least 5V DC.
Examine if RCA audio cables are connected to the right inputs.
Examine if speaker wiring is intact.
Reset Level Control
Examine the Crossover Control setting.
Observe if the device is still producing noise after turning on and o the
amplier. If yes, examine if the cables are correctly connected and if the
cables and radio are in good condition. Repair or replace if the cables or the
radio are not in good condition.
Ensure RCA connections are properly connected.
Ensure input level of the device matches the signal level of the head unit.
Always set the input level to the lowest.
Examine if crossover frequency is set correctly.
Examine if speaker wire had short-circuit.
Examine if minimum speaker impedance for the device is correct.
Ensure good air ventilation around the device. Add external cooling fan if
necessary.
Usually caused by poor RCA cable quality, which release noise. Use only the
best quality cables, and route them away from power cables.
Examine if RCA cable are nowhere near or attached to the vehicle chassis.
Examine if head unit is properly connected to the wires.
