Important notes
What you need to know Installation
Before using your new car radio, please
read through the following information care-
fully.
Traffic safety
If you would like to install your new car ra-
dio yourself or add other audio components
to existing ones, please read the enclosed
instructions on installation and connection ’
carefully.
As the driver of a motor vehicle, it is your
responsibility to pay attention to the traffic
situation at all times.
Never use your car radio in a way that could
distract you.
Please keep in mind that you travel a dis-
tance of 15 yards per second at a speed of
only 30 mph.
Should the traffic situation become partic-
ularly demanding, we advise you not to use
the radio.
Always make sure that you are still able to
hear any warning signals coming from out-
side the vehicle, such as police or fire en-
gine sirens, so that you can react accord-
ingly.
Consequently, you should always select a
moderate volume for playing your car ra-
dio while you are driving.
In order to ensure that the unit operates
properly the positive power supply line must
be connected via the ignition and the per-
manent +12 V lead.
Do not ground the loudspeaker outputs!
Accessories
Use Blaupunkt-approved accessories and
spare parts only.

Danger of damaging the automatic I
power antenna in a car wash

lswitch the radio off by pressing the
ON button.
The power antenna will retract, if it
doesn’t, press ON again.
Do not drive into the car wash unless
the power antenna has retracted!

Detachable face
Theft protection
This unit is equipped with a detachable
face. A car radio without face is worthless
for thieves.
Protect your car radio and detach the face
when you leave your car. It is very easy to
attach and detach the detachable face.
Note:
Do not pull the detachable face straight out
from the chassis, but detach it as illustrat-
ed below. Be sure not to drop the panel.
Do not expose the detachable face to di-
rect sunlight or other heat sources.
Do not leave it in a humid place.
Detaching the detachable face
Press the REL button to release the con-
trol panel. Then pull it off gently as illustrat-
ed.
If the unit was still in operation, it will turn
off now. All current settings remain stored.
If a cassette is inserted, it will be kept in
the unit.
The radio will turn on automatically when
you attach the detachable face again.
Attaching the detachable face
Slide the panel (B) from the left to the guide
of the chassis (A). Gently push the left side
of the panel against the front of the chassis
until it snaps into place.
Affixing the detachable face
If you wish to fix the detachable face per-
manently to the chassis, screw down the
enclosed bolt at the left hand side of the
chassis into the hole (C), see Fig.
