Warning note  
Theft protection  
Danger of damage to the automatic power  
antenna in a car wash.  
Before you drive into a car wash  
This unit is equipped with a detachable con-  
trol panel. A car radio without a control pa-  
nel is worthless to thieves.  
switch the radio off by pressing the ON  
button.  
Protect your car audio system and detach  
the control panel when you leave your ve-  
hicle. Thanks to the release panel’s well-  
planned design, it is very easy to attach and  
detach.  
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!  
If the unit was still in operation, it will turn  
off now. All current settings will remain  
stored. If a cassette is inserted, it will remain  
in the unit.  
Note:  
Accessories  
Do not pull the release panel straight out  
from the chassis, but rather slide it to the  
left to detach it as illustrated below. Be sure  
not to drop the panel.  
Do not expose the release panel to direct  
sunlight or other heat sources.  
Do not expose it to moisture.  
Use only Blaupunkt-approved accessories  
and spare parts.  
The unit will turn on again automatically  
when you re-attach the release panel.  
Remote control unit (not included with the  
unit, sold seperately)  
The RC 08 infrared remote control unit al-  
lows you to conveniently operate the most  
important functions from the steering wheel.  
Attaching the release panel  
Slide the panel (B) from the left along 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.  
Detaching the release panel  
Press the REL button to release the con-  
trol panel. Then remove the panel and in-  
sert it into the carrying case provided.

Radio operation with RDS (Radio Data System)  
Fixing the release panel  
The Radio Data System enhances your  
enjoyment when you listen to FM radio sta-  
tions.  
More and more radio stations now broad-  
cast RDS information along with their re-  
gular programming.  
As soon as a programme has been identi-  
fied, the station name including a regional  
identifier, if applicable, will appear in the  
display, for example, NDR1 NDS (regional  
programme in Lower Saxony, Germany).  
When RDS is activated, the preset buttons  
become programme buttons. You now  
know exactly which programme you have  
tuned into, making it easy to find the desi-  
red station quickly.  
If "SEARCH" appears in the display when  
the radio is switched on or one of the stored  
frequencies recalled, the unit is already  
automatically searching for an alternative  
frequency.  
"SEARCH" will disappear from the display  
when the alternative frequency has been  
found or after the frequency band has run  
through completely.  
If you wish to fix the release panel to the  
chassis permanently, screw down the  
enclosed bolt into the hole (C) on the left  
hand side of the chassis, see Fig.  
If the reception quality of the programme  
selected deteriorates beyond a certain  
point:  
Tune into another station.  
REG - regional programme  
C
Certain radio programmes are split up at  
times into regional programmes offering  
local information. The 1st programme  
broadcast by NDR, for example, offers pro-  
grammes with different contents in the nor-  
thern German states of Schleswig-Holstein,  
Hamburg and Lower Saxony at certain  
times of the day.  
If you are listening to a particular regional  
programme and wish to continue doing so,  
select "REG ON" in the DSC mode.  
If you leave the service area of the regio-  
nal programme you are tuned into, or if you  
would like to take full advantage of RDS  
service, switch to "REG OFF" in the DSC  
mode.  
But RDS also offers you further advantages:  
AF - Alternative frequency  
The AF (Alternative Frequency) function  
makes sure that the radio always tunes into  
the strongest frequency for the currently sel-  
ected programme automatically. If this  
function is activated, "AF" will appear in the  
display.  
Selecting the operating  
mode  
Use the SRC (source) button to select bet-  
ween radio and cassette mode.

Many FM radio stations provide their ser-  
vice area with traffic messages at regular  
intervals.  
Note:  
To switch the priority on or off:  
As already mentioned, these functions are  
only supported by a limited number of RDS  
stations at the present time.  
Press the AF·TA button.  
Along with their programmes, all traffic pro-  
gramme stations transmit a special carrier  
signal, which is decoded by your car radio.  
If this signal is identified, "TP" will appear  
in the display (Traffic Programme).  
If you press AF·TA while a message is  
being broadcast, this message will be in-  
terrupted.  
The unit will then switch back to the pre-  
vious mode. The priority for other traffic  
messages remains active.  
Please note that several buttons have no  
function while a traffic announcement is  
broadcast.  
In addition to these, there are also stations  
which do not actually transmit traffic infor-  
mation themselves, but by using RDS-EON  
it is possible for them to forward the traffic  
messages broadcast by another traffic pro-  
gramme station in the same radio network.  
Warning beep  
If you want to have the priority for traffic  
announcements activated while listening to  
one of these stations (e.g. NDR3), "TA"  
must appear on the display panel.  
If you leave the reception area of the traffic  
programme station currently tuned into, you  
will hear a warning beep after approx. 30  
seconds.  
This warning will also be emitted if you  
press a preset button for a station which  
does not send the traffic programme signal  
(TP).  
If a traffic announcement is broadcast, the  
radio will automatically switch to the linked  
traffic programme station (in this case,  
NDR2) for the duration of the message and  
return to the original programme (NDR3)  
afterwards.
