ing this new piece of equipment.
Please read these operating instruc-
tions before using the equipment for
the first time.
Accessories
Please use only Blaupunkt-approved

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

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).
We provide a manufacturer guarantee
for our products bought within the Eu-
ropean Union. You can view the guar-

Road safety
Road safety has priority. Only
operate your car radio if road and
traffic conditions allow. Familiarise
yourself 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

NOTES AND ACCESSORIES
MP3 is connected to the car radio, you
can play the tracks like normal CD mu-
sic tracks. The Compact Drive MP3 is
operated in the same way as a CD
changer. Most of the CD changer func-
tions can also be used with the Com-
pact Drive MP3.
Theft protection
Your car radio is fitted with a flip/release
panel to guard against theft. Without this
panel, the unit is worthless to the thief.
Protect your unit from theft by taking the
flip/release panel with you every time
you leave the car. Do not leave the panel
behind in the car, even if it is out of sight.
The constructive design of the panel
makes for simple handling.
Amplifier / sub-out
The car radio provides connections for
connecting external amplifiers and a
subwoofer.
We recommend you use well-matched
products from the Blaupunkt or Velocity
product ranges.
Note:
● Do not drop the flip/release panel.
● Do not expose the flip/release pan-
el to direct sunshine or other sourc-
es of heat.
Interface for vehicle-specific display
and steering-wheel remote control
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 dis-
play for the car radio.
● Keep the flip/release panel in the
case provided.
● Avoid direct skin contact with the
flip/release panel’s contact. Please
clean it when necessary with some
white spirit on a lint-free cloth.
Removing the flip/release panel
You can find out for which vehicles
such an interface is available from your
Blaupunkt dealer or from the Blaupunkt
telephone hotline.

Notes on adjusting the equalizer
We recommend you use a CD you are
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”.
● Listen to the CD.

cording to your taste.

scribed under “What to do”.
315 - 1250 Hz
● MID/HIGH EQ 1600 - 6300 Hz
● HIGH EQ 8000 - 12500 Hz
Switching the equalizer on/off

uring equipment. This means that the
sound quality inside the vehicle can be
