NOTES AND ACCESSORIES
Road safety
Notes and accessories
Thank you for deciding to use a Blau-
punkt product. We hope you enjoy us-
ing this new piece of equipment.
Road safety has priority. Only op-
erate your car radio if road and traf-
fic conditions allow. Familiarise your-
self with the unit before setting off on
your journey.
You should always be able to hear
police, fire and ambulance sirens in
good time. For this reason, set the
volume of your car radio at a suita-
ble level.
Please read these operating instruc-
tions before using the equipment for
the first time.
The Blaupunkt editors are constantly
working on making the operating in-
structions clearer and easier to under-
stand. However, if you still have any
questions on how to operate the equip-
ment, please contact your dealer or the
telephone hotline for your country. You
will find the telephone numbers printed
at the back of this booklet.
Installation
If you would like to install your car radio
yourself, please read the installation and
connection instructions at the end of the
manual.
We provide a manufacturer guarantee
for our products bought within the Eu-
ropean Union. You can view the guar-
or ask for them directly at:
Accessories
Please use only Blaupunkt-approved
accessories.
Remote controls
Blaupunkt GmbH
Hotline
Robert Bosch Str. 200
The most important functions of your car
radio can be selected safely and con-
veniently from the steering wheel using
the remote controls RC 08, RC 10 or
RC 10H (available as an optional ex-
tra).
D-31139 Hildesheim
The radio cannot be switched on/off via
remote control.
Amplifiers
All Blaupunkt amplifiers are suitable for
use with the radio.

NOTES AND ACCESSORIES
CD changer
Interface for vehicle-specific display
and steering-wheel remote control
The following Blaupunkt CD changers
can be connected to the radio:
CDC A 02, CDC A 08 and IDC A 09.
Some vehicles are already fitted at the
factory with a display in the dashboard
and a steering-wheel remote control.
There are specific interfaces available
for various vehicle types so that you can
use the remote control and the display
for the car radio.
Compact Drive MP3
As an alternative to a CD changer, you
can connect a Compact Drive MP3 to
access MP3 music tracks. If you con-
nect a Compact Drive MP3, you will first
need to use a computer to store the MP3
music tracks on the Microdrive™ hard
disk inside the Compact Drive MP3.
Then, when the Compact Drive MP3 is
connected to the car radio, you can play
the tracks like normal CD music tracks.
The Compact Drive MP3 is operated in
the same way as a CD changer. Most
of the CD changer functions can also
be used with the Compact Drive MP3.
You can find out for which vehicles such
an interface is available from your Blau-
punkt dealer or from the Blaupunkt tel-
ephone hotline.

familiar with when adjusting the equal-
izer.
This car radio is fitted with three para-
metric digital equalizers, which can be
set individually. This means you have
the means to save and request differ-
ent equalizer settings for different situ-
ations (eg only driver, driver and front
passenger or vehicle occupants in front
and back).
“Parametric” means that for each of the
five filters, one frequency can be indi-
vidually raised or lowered (GAIN +8 to
-8). The following filters are available:
Before adjusting the equalizer, set the
tone and volume balance to zero. To do
this, please see the chapter “Tone and
volume balance”.

EXTERNAL AUDIO SOURCES
External audio sources
In addition to the CD changer, you can
also connect up a different external au-
dio source with a line output. Such
sources can be, for example, portable
CD players, minidisc players or MP3
players.
If there is no CD changer connected to
your unit, two external audio sources
can be hooked up.
The AUX output has to be switched on
in the install menu.
TMC
TMC for dynamic navigation
systems
TMC denotes “Traffic Message Chan-
nel”. Traffic announcements are trans-
mitted digitally via TMC and can there-
fore be used by suitable navigation sys-
tems for route planning. Your car radio
has one TMC output for connection to
Blaupunkt navigation systems. Your
Blaupunkt dealer will tell you which nav-
igation systems can be used with your
car radio.
To connect up an external audio source,
you will need an adapter cable, obtain-
able from any authorised Blaupunkt
dealer.
When a navigation system is connect-
ed and a TMC station received, “TMC”
lights up on the display.
When the dynamic navigation system
is activated, the radio automatically
tunes into a TMC station.
Switching the AUX input on/off
● Press the MENU button 8.
“MENU” appears on the display.
● Press the button : repeatedly
until “AUX-IN-1 OFF” or “AUX-IN-1

er is connected, only input “2” will be
available.
● Press the or button : to
switch AUX on or off.
● Press the MENU button 8 or OK
