ELECTRICAL CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS  
1. Disconnect the vehicle battery’s negative terminal before making connections.  
2. Connect the speakers and/or external amplifiers (if you have any) following the guidelines in  
the SPEAKER CONNECTION section below.  
3. Connect the yellow and green “POWER ANTENNA+” (trigger output) lead to an antenna  
motor trigger input terminal (if you have one). (Maximum amperage required must not  
exceed

Connect the brown “GROUND+” lead to a grounded metal part on the vehicle. We recommend  
grounding all audio system ground leads (receiver, external amplifier, etc.) to a common  
grounding point, preferably a non-painted surface under the instrument panel.

Connect the red lead designated “BATTERY  
to a source of constant battery power.  
Connect the red lead designated as “ACC  
“IGNITION” (turn-on power) only after the  
other leads are connected. Be sure to connect the red lead to a positive (+) 12 Volt power  
terminal that is energized only when the ignition key is set to the on position or accessory  
position.  
Cover the ends of any unused leads with electrical tape. This will prevent them from touching  
the vehicle or each other and causing a short-circuit and damage to the unit or vehicle.

SPEAKER CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS  
The unit’s Dual-Level Fader allows you to fade between the front and the rear channels using either  
the front and/or rear speaker leads and/or the rear preamp outputs, providing you tremendous  
flexibility in configuring your speaker arrangement:  
l
You can connect a speaker (regular, co-axial or tri-axial speakers or component speaker system,  
all hereafter referred to simply as “speaker”) to each of the units’ four pairs of speaker leads.  
With the purchase of Blaupunkt accessory wire harness 8 643 494 218, you can connect the  
4 RCA preamp outputs to multiple external amplifiers and power multiple speakers or speaker  
systems through the amplifiers. (See below)

Connecting the Speaker Leads  
To prevent short circuits or serious damage to the unit and/or speakers:  
l
Connect the speaker leads only as indicated in the wiring diagram. Disconnect the vehicle  
battery’s negative terminal before making connections.  
Only use speakers that have impedance ratings of 4 ohms or higher and have power-handling  
capabilities greater than the receiver’s stated power level.

The unit’s internal amplifier is designed to handle a 4-ohm load on each pair of speaker leads.  
DON’T connect two soeakers to a

DON’T connect the left and  
of speaker leads (“in parallel”) unless both speakers  
leads to each other or to the same speakers.

DON’T connect the front and  
speaker leads to each other or to the same speakers.  
DON’T connect the negative speaker leads to each other.  
DON’T connect the positive speaker leads to each other.  
DON’T connect any active speakers (with built-in amplifiers) to the speaker leads unless their  
owner’s manuals specifically state that this is O.K.  
l
Cover the ends of any unused leads with electrical tape. This will prevent them from touching the  
vehicle or each other and causing a short-circuit and damage to the receiver or vehicle.

switch-on lead (blue/white), and cellular telephone mute (dark  
CDC-A05 or CDC-A071 CD Changer, you don’t need this harness  
because all of these connections are included in changer’s wire harness.  
AUXILIARY INPUT  
If a changer IS not connected, you can connect portable  
equipment to your unit by purchasing  
Blaupunkt accessory harness 7 607 890 093. This harness fits in the top block on the rear of the unit.  
It includes a 2 meter aux-in cable with a 3.5 mm male plug for direct insert into your portable equipment,  
as well as 4-channel preamp out connections, amplifier switch-on lead (blue), and cellular telephone  
mute (purple).  
REMOTE CONTROLS  
This receiver’s most-frequently used features can be controlled by Blaupunkt’s unique Thummer II  
Steerina-Wheel Remote Control. Included with remote control are a receiving “eye” that can be placed  
on the dash, as well as a wiring harness, which can be used simultaneously with the  
harnesses for the preamp  
and for the changer or aux Input.  
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS  
A. This car radio is designed to be installed in the car radio compartment provided by the vehicle  
manufacturer. Open the car radio compartment (remove the shelf or panel by unclipping it) or  
adjust the size of the car radio compartment to measure 182 x 53 mm.  
B.  
The mounting bracket included with this car radio is designed for installation in vehicles with a  
standard DIN installation compartment measuring 182 x 53 mm, installation depth and  
an instrument panel thickness of approximately 1 to 20 mm in the area of the tab fasteners, see  
Fig. Reach behind the car radio compartment and check to see which tab fasteners can be  
bent on the mounting bracket. Place the mounting bracket in the compartment and bend over  
the tabs with the help of a screwdriver, see Fig.  
2. Be sure to bend all of the tabs possible.  
C. Your vehicle may also allow you to provide extra ability at the back of the unit. Look at the wall  
behind the radio cavity to see if there is a small hole the size of the enclosed plastic plugs. If so,  
screw one or both of the plugs onto the threaded bolt at the back of the unit before pushing the  
unit into the mounting sleeve.  
D
Place the car radio in the front of the mounting bracket and push it in until the side springs snap  
into position on the left and the right (you will hear an audible click).  
Removing the car radio  
Insert the handles into the holes in the panel on the left and right of the radio and push them in  
until you hear a distinct click (unlocks side springs).  
Pull the unit out using both handles, see Fig. 3.  
Note: Handles which have snapped into place can only be removed after you have pulled  
the radio out of the compartment.  
If you have any questions, please consult your Blaupunkt dealer or in the  
United States call l-800-266-2528.
