1. Prior to installation
Read the manual prior to installation. Technical knowledge is necessary for installation. The
place of installation must be free of moisture and away from heat sources.

2. Installation
Switch off ignition and disconnect the vehicle’s battery! The interface needs a
permanent 12V source. If according to factory rules disconnecting the battery
is to be avoided, it is usually sufficient to put the vehicle is sleep-mode. In
case the sleep-mode does not show success, disconnect the battery with a
resistor lead.
If power source is not taken directly from the battery, the connection has to be
checked for being start-up proven and permanent.
2.1. Removal of navigation/radio unit
The interface is installed on the backside of the navigation/radio unit which must be
removed for installation of the interface.
2.2. Connections
Unplug the Quadlock socket from the backside of the
navigation computer.
Unplug the compartment with the fibre optics from the
Quadlock socket.
Exchange the shells of the vehicle harness’ fibre optical
connector and interface harness’ fibre optical
connector against each other.
Information
On devices with external audio
gateway, e.g. NTG1, the fibre
optical connector can be found
as separate connector on the
device’s backside.

Connect the vehicle harness’ fibre optical
connector to the fibre optical socket of the
interface harness.
Connect the interface harness’ fibre optical
connector to the Quadlock socket of the
vehicle harness.
Plug the Quadlock socket back into the
navigation computer.
Connect red and black wire to permanent +12V
source. Connect blue to +12V to enable CDchanger emulation for A2DP. A2DP
requirement is that the factory CD-changer is
NOT installed.
Install the microphone close to the driver. Connect the microphones 2 Pin AMP jack to the
2 Pin AMP jack bush of the blueLOGiC® harness.
2.3. Activation of fibre optical ring and interface
If the vehicle has no fibre optical component installed, the fibre optical ring is not activated.
In this case it needs to be activated by diagnosis computer and the head-unit needs to be
coded to telephone.
To enable the display in the instruments and the steering wheel buttons for telephone
functions, it is necessary to activate the instruments telephone menu by diagnosis computer.
After first installation the vehicle must go into sleep-mode in order to recognize the newly
attached hardware.
After re-connecting the battery, lock the vehicle and wait for 5 -10 minutes.

3. Interface operation
The interface enables the telephone bus of the factory navigation system. Therefore in
principal, the operation is analogue as described in the manual of the navigation system.
3.1. Pairing the blueLOGiC® Interface with a mobile phone
Up to 10 mobile phones can simultaneously be paired with the blueLOGiC® interface. If a
11th phone is paired, the oldest entry is automatically deleted. In some cases, it becomes
necessary to put the vehicle in sleep mode to enable correct function of the 11th phone.
For pairing, enable the pairing mode of the mobile phone
(see manual of the mobile phone). Search with the
mobile phone for „blueLOGiC“ or „CK5050N“ and connect
with activation code „1234“. Some mobile phones try to
connect to the blueLOGiC ® interface with another function
as "hands free". Check this attitude and switch the adjustment
to "hands free" if necessary (see manual of the mobile phone).
If a mobile phone had been paired to the blueLOGiC® interface (requirement is an occurred
pairing with a mobile phone, see above), a connection will be automatically established as
soon as the mobile phone is in reach. If multiple paired mobile phones are simultaneously in
reach, the blueLOGiC® interface will be connected to the first phone.
If you have connection problems between mobile phone and the blueLOGIC, first check at
the parrot website whether an update for the parrot chip is available. The part number of
the parrot chip can be found in the specifications at the end of the manual.
3.2. Loading of phone book
After each establishment of connection to the mobile phone, the phone book of the mobile
phone will be loaded to the vehicle infotainment.
Depending on the mobile phone either it will be loaded from the phone’s memory or the
SIM card. This process can take a few minutes. If the phone book is no or not completely
loaded, it might be necessary to copy the contacts from the SIM-card to the mobile phone
memory!
Some mobile phones do not automatically load the phone book to the infotainment, but the
sending must be manually initiated (the procedure varies depending on the mobile phone,
z.B. “send phone book to Bluetooth”).
The manual procedure must be repeated for refreshment if the mobile phone’s contacts
have been edited.
The memory of blueLOGiC® interface can save about 1000 call numbers.

3.3. Setup, factory defaults, update
Settings of the blueLOGiC® interface can be changed by dialing certain codes in the vehicle
telephone mode. Caller audio volume, Ringing tone volume and microphone sensitivity
can be adjusted separately. The interface can be reset to factory defaults and updates of the
Parrot chipset can be initiated.
To execute a function, just dial the corresponding code from the below table like a phone
number and confirm with “pick-up”.

Code no.

To the codes for volume and sensitivity it is necessary to add two digits for the desired value
(01 min. to 15 max.). For example dial “+002112” to set the caller audio volume to level 12.
After dialing a code, the navigation will confirm with “call failed”.
System updates of the Parrot chipset are possible through Bluetooth® via PC.
3.4. A2DP audio streaming through CD-changer emulation
When the CD-changer emulation of the blueLOGiC® interface is entered, it is possible to
listen to music files on the factory sound system which are played by the mobile phone. The
available options to control the play functions of the mobile phone depend very much on
the mobile phone, for example iPhones® do not support any track skipping. Full functions
are starting and stopping the playback, next track and previous track.
If the vehicle CD-changer mode of the vehicle’s navigation/radio system is activated, the
A2DP playback is automatically started. When the CD-changer mode is exited, the A2DP
playback is stopped. The playback is paused during phone call activity. Track skipping is
possible with the “next” and “back” keys of the steering wheel or the head-unit. The
playback can manually be stopped or resumed by pressing the “SCAN” button.
The volume level of the A2DP can be adjusted in the mobile phones settings.
