Identity Card
The identity card for your car radio
contains the type, the serial number and the
code number for coding.

ber embossed in the frame of your car radio.
The Identity Card facilitates criminal investiga-
tion by the police in case of radio theft and
speeds settlement of an insurance claim by
providing evidence of ownership.
íKeep the card in a safe place, out of reach
of unauthorised persons.

Your car radio has been designed throughout
to ensure maintenance-free operation over an
extended period of time.
If a malfunction
should occur, please consult your dealer.
In the Federal Republic of Germany, Grundig
car radios can be exchanged by your dealer
on request for a works-tested exchange unit
in the event of a defect occuring.
Please note:
It is a condition for your dealer to participate
in this exchange system that the guarantee
seal on your car radio is not damaged.
Cassettes must not be subjected to high
temperatures (see manufacturer's specifica-
tions) and should be put into their case after
use.
The front panel of the car radio must only be
cleaned with a soft, dust-absorbent, anti-static
cloth. Polishing and cleansing agents may
damage the surface of the trimplate.
The tape head must be free of tape dust in
order to avoid losses in the treble tones
during playback. Therefore you should clean
the tape head with a cleaning cassette after
every 50–100 hours of operation.
