Before Installing and Testing (continued)
Transport Lock Screws
The mechanism in the CD changer is “locked” into place during
shipment by three transport screws. Be sure to remove the screws prior
to testing the system and installation.
To keep dust out of the unit, which could cause a malfunction, place the
enclosed seals over the screw holes after the Transport Lock Screws
have been removed.
Reset Button
A Reset Button is located on the front panel of the Commander
and must be activated with a pen tip or other thin object, as it is
recessed to prevent accidental engagement. Press the Reset
Button under the following circumstances:
1. After connections have been made for initial testing.
2. After installation, when all wiring is completed.
3. If abnormal disc operation is encountered, the Reset Button
should be pressed to clear the system to return to normal
operation.
4. After disconnecting and reconnecting the car battery, etc.
. .
ID (Identity) Switch for 2nd CD Changer
To connect a second CDC-RF 6 changer, you
must use Blaupunkt’s CDC-RF BRIDGE,
which is sold separately. When an
additional CD changer has been connected
using this unit, the ID switch is used to
indicate the number of each respective
changer unit.
l The ID switch is initially set to “1” when
shipped.
l When only one changer is connected, the
switch should be set to “1 ‘I.
l When two changers are connected, one
of the unit’s switches should be set to “2”
using a ballpoint pen or similar fine-tipped
tool.

Setting the Radio Frequency
You must select and test the radio frequency that the changer will use before
you mount the FM Modulator.
Set the radio frequency setting to 89.1 using the switch on the back of the
FM Modulator. Test the operation of the changer. (See page 15) If a clear
signal cannot be obtained on 89.1 MHz, change the position of the
frequency-select switch to 88.7.
The radio sensitivity is slightly reduced when the FM Modulator is connected.

Electrical Connections
Electrical Connections
l Caution: before making connections, disconnect the ground wire terminal of the car battery to avoid
short circuits.
l Use this unit only with negative ground 12 Volt (1 l- 16 Volt) direct current (DC).
l Be sure to use the supplied changer cord. Using a cord other than the one supplied may cause
noise or damage.
l Be sure to connect the changer cord to the FM Modulator before mounting. If you attach the
changer cord to the modulator and the cord projects down toward the back of the modulator,
remove the cord and attach the other end of the cord to the modulator.
Power Connections - To prevent short circuits and/or serious damage:
l Disconnect the vehicle battery’s negative terminal before making connections.
Note - If the changer is to be installed in a car that is equipped with an on-board drive or navigation
computer, do not disconnect the battery cable. If the cable is disconnected, the computer memory
may be lost. Under these conditions, use extra caution to avoid causing a short circuit during
installation.
l Connect leads according to the wiring diagram.
l Connect the yellow lead to a constant source of power which has passed through the vehicle’s fuse unit.
l Connect the red power input lead only after the other leads are connected. And be sure to connect it
to a positive (+) 12 Volt power terminal that is energized only when the ignition key is set to the
accessory position or on position.
l Connect the black lead to a grounded metal part of the vehicle. We recommend grounding all audio
system black ground leads (head unit, external amplifier, etc.) to a common point.
