Important information
Possible connections
Disregarding the following notes may lead to
a destruction of the output stages!
Do not connect the speaker outputs to
ground!
A Quick-Out holder is delivered with this cas-
sette car radio. Should you wish to install or
to extend the set by yourself, read carefully
the attached mounting and connecting in-
structions.
A brief summary will be given at the end of
this guide.
This car radio is provided with connecting fa-
cilities for a CD-Changer. The car radio Bre-
men SQR 49 allows to control important func-
tions of the CD changer.
The function DSC (Direct Software Control)
allows to separately adjust and store the dis-
play colour, search tuning sensitivity level,
loudness, the volume of ARI traffic messages
and of the alert signal. The adjustment proce-
dures are described in chapter “Notes on
operation“.
Quick Out
This car radio comes standard with a Quick
Out handle.
Quick Out allows you to pull the radio out of
the compartment and to take it along. The
preset stations remain stored.
If you wish to pull the unit out of the compart-
ment
@ switch the set off and pull the bracket @.
In order to activate radio reception or cassette
playback
@ insert the set until it stops and turn the
bracket to the front panel.
The unit can be operated if the code sys-
tem is switched off.
If the code system is activated, please follow
the operating steps as described in “Anti-theft
coding".
FM reception in the car
In-car FM reception offers you the same ad-
vantages as your home equipment.
FM will give you the finest quality of music
and speech reproduction.
However, FM reception conditions are more
difficult in a moving car than in your home,
where the aerial is stationary. When your car
is in motion, signal strength is constantly fluc-
tuating, although you may not notice this.
The reception concept Codem IV, developed
by Blaupunkt minimizes the different recep-
tion interferences, such as varying station
field strength, multipath reception and sha-
dows.
If
the
field
strength
is
too
weak
(the
re-
ception conditions get worse), you should tu-
ne in to another FM station.
Optimum reception can be obtained only if
the aerial is correctly mounted and in wor-
king order.

Fader
To adjust the front/rear sound volume.
When four speakers are connected, maximum
volume is obtained in middle position.
When two speakers are connected, turn the
fader into middle position.
The loudness
At reduced volume the human ear is less sen-
sitive to bass than to middle and higher fre-
quencies. —
This effect is reduced with increasing volume.
Since the perception of sound depends on
the type of equipment (amplifier), the arrange-
ment and the type of the speakers as well as
on the vehicle, the loudness can be adjusted
in different levels.
The loudness is switched on or off by
@ pressing button “LD“ @. When the loud-
ness is switched on “LD“ appears on the

red frequency and store the station as des-
cribed.
In FM mode, tuning is effected in steps of

Besides the stations already stored, the last
station you listened to on each waveband is
also stored.
... using Travel Store
The travel store function enables you to store
automatically the 6 strongest stations of your
particular reception area.
We recommend to use this function especially
when you are travelling.
Switch on travel store and activate the station
memory by
@ pressing button U-TS @ for approx. 2 sec.
While storing the set is muted for approx. 2
Sec.
Mono switching
Your radio is fitted with a Blaupunkt FM tuner
(Codem IV), which largely ensures undistur-
bed reception and perfect sound.
In areas where signal strength is insufficient
and/or where multipath reception due to re-
flections can occur, the unit switches grad-
ually from stereo to mono. This provides for
considerably better reception while driving. In
areas with especially critical reception condi-
tions we recommend to switch to “m“ by me-
ans of the button @@ m @ in order to suppress
the background noise in stereo mode. The
stereo indicator @k goes off.

Cassette playback
In order to obtain optimum playback quality,
we recommend to activate the system (noise
suppression, tape type) which was used for
recording.
@ Check whether a Dolby B-NR, Dolby C-NR,
or a cassette without Dolby NR is used.
@ Insert the cassette into the cassette com-
partment (side A or 1 facing upwards).
The cassette is automatically transported into
playback position.
The buttons @ - @) now serve for cassette
operation (red lettering).
The cassette will be played back in the direc-
tion that was used last. The display indicates
the corresponding track (TR1/TR2).

When the end of the tape is reached, the unit
will automatically reverse direction and resu-
me play (autoreverse operation).
The cassette will be ejected again, if you
@ press button 4 @.
Tape type switching
The tape type switching is done automatically
(METAL, CrO,, Fe,0,). The display @h indica-
tes “MTL", if METAL or CrO, cassettes are
used.
Dolby-NR
The unit can be used to play back cassettes
which have been recorded
a) with Dolby B NR
b) with Dolby C NR
c) without noise reduction systems.
On cassettes which have been recorded with
Dolby NR*, background hiss is much lower
and dynamics are better. Dolby C NR goes a
stage further than Dolby B NR and reduces
undesired background hiss even further.
Dolby B or C NR are switched on/off by
@ pressing button @ or @9.
The display @f shows the corresponding
symbol B or C. if no symbol lights up, Dol-
by-NR is not switched on.

ble D symbol are the trademarks of Dolby Laboratories.
Track switching (autoreverse operation) @)
The unit is equipped with a high-quality auto-
reverse cassette mechanism.
Having inserted the cassette, playback starts
in the direction used last.
The display indicates TR1 or TR2 (TRACK 1
or 2).
When the end of the tape is reached the unit
automatically reverses direction and resume
play (autoreverse operation).
The track can be converted at any time by
@ pressing the button VA @.
Attention!
Stiff cassettes may change from track to track
without warning. If this happens the tape
winding should be inspected, and respooling
the cassette may prove helpful.
If an activated cassette function cannot be
carried out, the cassette will be ejected to
avoid harmful effects upon the cassette. If
cassette ejection is also not possible, “TA-
PE ERR* will be displayed @.
By switching the unit off and on, the cassette
function can be activated again.

if you switch over to radio operation, the cas-
sette tape is stopped. The tape head and the
pressure rolls retract in order to protect the
cassette and cassette mechanism (stand-by
operation).
If an external CD or DAT player is operated,
the CD/DAT playback has priority.
If the Blaupunkt CD-Changer is operated, you
can switch over between the audio sources of
the connected units by means of SRC (CD,
cassette, radio).
Checking the frequency/tuning in to a station
During cassette operation you can check the
frequency of the tuned station.
@ Press the rocker switch (9.
The frequency of the tuned station is dis-
played for approx 3 sec.
Should you wish to tune to a particular station
(e.g. a station which broadcasts traffic messa-
ges),
@ press the rocker switch for a second time
while the frequency is still displayed. Se-
arch tuning starts and stops at the next re-
ceivable station. If ARI has been activated,
it stops at the following receivable ARI sta-
tion.
Traffic broadcast reception (ARI)
Certain FM stations broadcast local traffic
messages from time to time. Besides various
other advantages, the ARI system will make it
easier for you to find these stations. You may
identify a traffic information station by a chan-
ging background colour of the display. Fur-
thermore, the zone identification letter lights
up in. the display @b. The frequency of the re-
levant station broadcasting traffic information
is shown for example on the blue motorway
signs (fig. 3)..

Switching ARI on
Having activated the ARI function, all stations
which do not broadcast traffic information are
muted. Should you wish to receive traffic in-
formation stations only,
@ press the ARI button @.
If ARI is activated, the ARI logo is shown on
the display @p.
If you do not receive a traffic information sta-
tion yet, the alert signal sounds and the dis-
play indicates ,NO ARI*.
@ In this case, press the rocker switch @.
The next traffic information station will be
received.
The background colour of the display
changes and the zone identification letter
is displayed @b.
Press once again the ARI button @ to switch
off the ARI function.
The alert signal
Whenever you leave the range of a traffic in-
formation station, making reception difficult,
the zone identification letter @b goes off. The
display colour changes and after approx. 30
sec an alert signal will be released, if the ARI
function is still activated. When this happes,
you should a) tune to another ARI station, or
b) deactivate the ARI function by pressing the
ARI button. The alert signal then stops imme-
diately.
Please note: ,
When you press a preset button on which a
non-ARI station has been stored an alert si-
gnal is released. In this case, you should
switch off the ARI function (pressing button
@) or tune to another traffic information sta-
tion.
Adjusting the volume for traffic information
and alert signal
.Should you wish to receive traffic information
only, it is possible to reduce the volume either
slightly or totally whilst maintaining reception
of traffic messages. When a traffic message is
broadcast, it is automatically reproduced at
the preset volume, although you have pre-
viously turned down the volume or switched
over to cassette operation.
The preset volume for traffic messages can
be adjusted in line with your particular requi-
rements (e.g. having connected an amplifier
or in case of a quiet or loud vehicle).
@ Press the ARI button @ for approx. 8 sec
until the display indicates “LEVEL“ and
shows a number between 1 and 9.
Now you receive the program with the ad-
justed volume.
@ Adjust the minimum volume for the traffic
messages and the alert signal by means of
the rocker switch @® (« decreasing; — in-
creasing)-
In order to store your adjustment
@ press the ARI button @.
ARI with cassette operation

announcements.

Start of automatic search tuning
@ When you leave the range of the adjusted
traffic information station, making reception
difficult, the set automatically tunes to an-
other traffic information station when cas-
sette operation is activated or the volume
at radio operation turned down.
Anti-theft coding
A freely selectable four-digit code renders ©
you car radio unusable to thieves.
In addition, you can enter max. 2 x 8 digits for
your car registration number (owner identifi-
cation).
When switching on the unit after the power
supply to the unit has been interrupted (e.g. in
_ the case of theft or repair), the entered data
for each level are displayed for 8 sec. Since
your individual data are displayed it is easy to
prove your ownership.
The unit now requests the correct entry of the
code number. If an incorrect code number is
entered, the display indicates for approx. 10
SeC. fh eo es et
After the fourth unseccessful attempt of ente-
ring the correct code number, this period is
extended to 1 hour. After 16 incorrect attem-
pts the set can only be decoded by special
means.
If no code has been entered initially, the set
can be operated without entering a code after
a power supply cut off.
Should you wish to protect your set by means
of the anti-theft coding, choose a 4-digit num-
ber and write it down.
Attention:
We urgently suggest you to note your secret
code on the attached car radio ID card. If you
do not remember your code, you will not be
able to make the set functional again when
the power supply was interrupted.
In this case, your car radio will have to be de-
coded in our central service workshop or in
one of our foreign agencies on presentation
of the car radio ID card.

Care and maintenance
Care of cassettes and unit
Handle
your
cassettes
and
unit
carefully.
We
recommend
to
use
C
60/C
90
cassettes.
You may expect less wear and tear of the
cassette
mechanism
and
better
operation
be-
haviour from a cassette produced by a lea-
ding manufacturer.
Metal,
ferrous
oxide,
chromium
dioxyde,
and
ferrichrome
cassettes
can
be
used.
Protect
your
cassettes
against
dirt
and
dust
by
keeping
them
in
suitable
containers.
Heat
exceeding
50°C,
e.g.
when
exposed
to
direct
sunlight,
may
damage
your
cassettes.
At
temperatures
below
0°C,
do
not
start
play-
back
of
your
cassettes
before
they
have
war-
med
up
sufficiently.
This
helps
to
avoid
irregular
tape
transport.
Constant
wear
of
the
tape
soils
the
cassette
mechanism.
Therefore,
the
head,
the
rubber
pressure
rolls,
and
the
capstan
shaft
are
to
be
cleaned
so
that
a
trouble-free
reproduction
and
function
of
the
cassette
unit
is
ensured.
These
parts
should
be
cleaned
with
a
cotton
pad
dipped
in
alcohol.
Never
use
hard
tools
for
cleaning.
After
approx.
50
hours
of
opera-
tion,
the
unit
should
be
examined
and
tho-
roughly
cleaned
by
an
expert
(see
“Clean’).
This
