Important information
Anti-theft coding
Do not connect the loudspeaker outputs to
ground!
Only use the accessory and replacement
parts approved by Blaupunkt.
The car radio comes standard with the code
system deactivated.
What you need to know!
Before starting to use your new car radio you
shouldcarefullyreadthroughtheinformation
on “Traffic safety” and “Anti-theft coding”.
If the anti-theft coding system is on while the
power supply to the unit is interrupted (e.g.
theft,disconnectingthecarbattery),thesetis
electronically blocked. Then it may only be
used again after the appropriate code num-
ber has been entered (see car radio pass-
port).
Traffic safety
Traffic safety has always priority. Use your
car radio in such a manner that you are
always able to cope with and react to the
prevailing traffic situation at any given time.
Remember, even at 50 km/h you are still
moving at a speed of 14 m per seconds.
It is also very important that you are able to
hear, and react to, acoustic warning signals
around you, for example from the police or
the firebrigade.
Wrong code number entered
It should not be possible for thieves to ascer-
tain the code number by trial-and-error. This
is why the set will be blocked for a certain
period of time, if an incorrect code number is
entered. Inthiscase, “- - - -”willappearinthe
display.
This waiting time is 10 seconds after the first
three attempts, and 1 hour following subse-
quent attempts.
Therefore, adjust the volume reasonably.
Installation/connection
After 19 unsuccessful attempts, “OFF” will
appear in the display and the set can no
longer be restarted.
The code system can only be switched on
and off, if the radio is connected to perma-
nent power.
If you like to install your new car radio by
yourself or add other audio components to
the existing ones, then please read carefully
the enclosed instructions on installation and
connection.
Note:
Keep you car radio passport with the code
number in a safe place in order to avoid
“unauthorized access” to your car radio.

If the power supply to the radio is interrupted
while the code system is switched on, you
need to know the right code number.
The radio will operate again as soon as you
have entered the right code number.
If you lose your radio passport and have
forgotten your code number, you will not be
able to restart the set after the power supply
has been interrupted. In this case, your radio
can only be reset in our central customer
service workshop or in one of our service
agencies abroad.
If the radio is turned off before the waiting
period has elapsed, then the waiting period
restarts as soon as the radio is turned on
again.

Reception of traffic announcements with RDS-EON (Enhanced Other Networks)
Many FM broadcasters provide their service
area with traffic messages at regular inter-
vals.
All traffic program stations transmit a special
telegram signal in addition to the radio pro-
gram, which is recognised and decoded by
the car radio. As soon as such a signal is
received, the display shows “TP” (Traffic
Program).
Other radio stations do not air traffic an-
nouncements by themselves, but offer the
possibility to receive the traffic announce-
ments of another station within the same
radio network. In this case, “TP” will light up
in the display as soon as the priority for traffic
announcements is activated. The display
must then show “TA”.
If a traffic announcement comes in, your
radio will automatically switch to the traffic
program for the duration of the message and
return to the previous station after the end of
the message.
Alternative:

When pressing TA while a traffic announce-
ment is being played, the radio stops playing
the message and switches to the previous

nouncements remains active.
If you leave the reception area of your traffic
program while you are listening to a CD, the
car radio will automatically tune into another
traffic program station.
If no such traffic program station is found
within approximately 30 seconds, CD repro-
duction will be interrupted and you will hear a
warning beep. To switch off the warning
beep, proceed as detailed above.
