GENERAL
This CD changer is designed for use only with car radios which have CD changer controls based
on the DIGITAL standard. Consult your dealer for suitable types of car radio.
The functions of the CD changer are described in the operating instructions for the car radio.
WARNING: To prevent short-circuiting, disconnect the negative car battery terminal until the
whole system has been mounted and connected (fig. 1). See separate installation card.
Voltage and polarity: 12 V, negative earth.
• Do not attempt to repair or service the CD changer yourself. Return the unit, plus magazine
with the transport screws in place, to your dealer or an authorised Service Agency (see
addresses at the end of this booklet).
• Temperatures inside the parked car will fluctuate considerably during summer and winter.
They should not exceed +70°C or –20°C when operating the CD changer.
• To avoid too high temperature, never install the changer on top of the dashboard or on the
rear parcel shelf.
- If the temperature is too high, a built-in protection mechanism prevents the CD changer
from operating until the temperature reaches a safe level. During this time a warning
message is displayed by the car radio.

FIXING MATERIAL SUPPLIED Fig. 2
Only use screws and fixing material supplied!
A 2 brackets (L) left and (R) right
B 2 base-plates with screws (M6 x 20) and double-sided self-adhesive tape
C 4 hexagonal bolts with washer (M5 x 10)
D 4 hexagonal nuts (M6)
E 4 tapping screws (5 x 12)

REMOVING TRANSPORT SCREWS Fig. 3
Remove the three transport screws from the underside of the CD changer.
Clean around the three holes on the CD changer.
Glue the supplied round stickers F over the holes to prevent dust entering the CD changer.
Store the three transport screws in the supplied plastic bag.
■ DETERMINE THE MOUNTING POSITION FOR THE CD CHANGER
Possible locations are:
- in the luggage boot (trunk),
- in the glove compartment,
- under the seats or,
- behind the seats of a pick-up truck.
The installation must not interfere with the legroom or influence the safe driving of the
vehicle.
If the CD changer is to be mounted in the luggage boot, first install the extension cable (B in
Fig. 20) between the dashboard and the luggage boot.
• Ensure that the plug at the dashboard side correctly fits the connector of the car radio adapter
cable 1 or 2 (or the cable already fitted to certain types of car radio).
• If you have to drill holes for the extension cable, ensure that the edges of the holes are free
from swarf. Provide the holes with a grommet or piece of tape.
• Ensure that the cable is not bent at sharp angles and cannot be damaged by any moving
parts in the vehicle.
• Determine the mounting position for the CD changer. Ensure that the CD magazine can easily
be inserted and removed!
• Do not mount the unit upside-down if mounted horizontally or at an angle of 45° (Fig. 4 or 5),
or on its side if mounted vertically (Fig. 6).
• The opening for the CD magazine must face upwards in case of vertical mounting (Fig. 6).
• The maximum inclination may not exceed 15° from the horizontal or vertical axis (Fig. 4 or 5)
or from the 45° position (Fig. 6).

SHOCK ABSORBER ADJUSTMENT
The CD changer is pre-set at the factory for horizontal mounting (Fig. 7).
If you mount the CD changer horizontally no adjustment is needed. In this case go to the next
section “MOUNTING”.
If you mount the CD changer vertically, or at a 45° angle, (or if you later change the mounting
angle) you must first change the shock absorber setting.
• Change the position of the setting mechanisms at both sides of the CD changer using a
screwdriver.
• For vertical mounting, use position “V” (Fig. 8).
• For mounting at an angle of approx. 45°, use position “45°” (Fig. 9).
After setting the position of the shock absorbers, glue the supplied stickers G over the holes
of the setting mechanisms (CH1000 only).
