NOTES AND ACCESSORIES
Road and traffic 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 and traffic safety have ab-
solute priority. Only operate your car
radio if the road and traffic conditions
allow you to do so. Familiarise your-
self with the device before setting off
on your journey.
Please read these operating instruc-
tions before using the equipment for
the first time.
You should always be able to hear
police, fire and ambulance sirens
from afar. For this reason, set the
volume of whatever you are listen-
ing to at a reasonable level.
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.
Safety information
The car radio and the device's
control panel (flip-release panel) heat
up during use. Therefore, when re-
moving the flip-release panel, only
hold it by its non-metallic surfaces.
Allow the car radio to cool down first
if you want to uninstall the whole unit.
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:
Blaupunkt GmbH
Hotline
Robert Bosch Str. 200
Installation
If you want to install your car radio your-
self, please read the installation and
connection instructions that follow these
operating instructions.
D-31139 Hildesheim
Accessories
Only use accessories approved by Blau-
punkt.
Remote control
The RC 08, RC 10 or RC 10H remote
controls (available as optional accesso-
ries) allow you to safely and conven-
iently access the main functions of your
car radio.
The radio cannot be switched on/off
using the remote control.

NOTES AND ACCESSORIES
THEFT PROTECTION
Removable control panel
Amplifier
All Blaupunkt amplifiers can be used.
Theft protection
As a way of protecting your car radio
Calibration microphone
You can use the calibration microphone against theft, the unit is equipped with
(available as an accessory) for the a removable control panel (flip-release
equalizer’s automatic sound calibration panel). Without this control panel, the

car radio is worthless to a thief.
Protect your equipment against theft by
taking the control panel with you every
time you leave your vehicle. Do not
leave the control panel in your vehicle -
not even in a hiding place.
CD changer
The following CD changers can be ob-
tained from accessory retailers for con-
nection with this device: CDCA02, CDC
A 08, CDC A 072 und IDC A 09.
You can also connect the CDC A 071
CD-changer by using an adapter cable
(Blaupunkt no.: 7 607 889 093).
The control panel has been designed
to be easy to use.
Note:
● Never drop the control panel.
Compact Drive MP3
● Never expose the control panel to
direct sunlight or other heat sourc-
es.
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(tm) 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.
● Store the control panel in the sup-
plied case.
● Avoid making direct skin contact
with the control panel’s contacts. If
necessary, clean the contacts with
a lint-free cloth soaked in alcohol.

switched from a station that does not
provide traffic information to a station
within the broadcasting network that
does.

TRAFFIC INFORMATION
CD MODE
Note:
CD mode
You can use this unit to play standard
CDs with a diameter of 12 cm.
You will hear a warning sound:
● if you leave the reception area of a
traffic information station that you
are currently listening to.
CD-Rs (CDs that you have “burned”
yourself) and CD-RWs can generally
also be played. Due to the varying qual-
ity of CDs, Blaupunkt cannot guaran-
tee that this will work properly.
● if, while listening to a CD, cassette
or Multi-Media Card (depending on
the car radio’s equipment), you
leave the reception area of a traffic
information station that you are
tuned into and the subsequent au-
tomatic search cannot find a new
traffic information station.
● if you retune the radio from a traffic
information station to a station that
does not broadcast traffic informa-
tion.
To ensure the system functions proper-
ly, only use CDs labelled with the com-
pact disc logo. Problems might be ex-
perienced when trying to play copy-pro-
tected CDs. Blaupunkt cannot guaran-
tee the proper functioning of copy-pro-
tected CDs!
Risk of severe damage to the
CD drive!
If you hear the warning sound, you can
either switch off traffic information pri-
ority or tune into a station that broad-
casts traffic information.
CD singles with a diameter of 8 cm
and non-circular contoured CDs
(shape CDs) must not be used.
