● Avoid touching the contacts of the
flip/release panel. Please clean it
when necessary with some white
spirit on a lint-free cloth.
Removing the flip/release panel

You can also use this car radio for play-

MP3 music files.
CD texts are displayed with a maximum

Removing a CD
MP3 is a process developed by the
Fraunhofer Institute for compressing CD
audio data. Compression allows data to
be reduced to around 10% of their orig-
inal size without a noticeable loss in
quality (at a bit rate of 128 Kbit/s). If a
lower bit rate is used to convert CD au-
dio data to MP3, you can create small-
er files but there will be a loss in quality.

button 9.
● Carefully remove the CD and close
the flip/release panel.
Preparing the MP3-CD
The various combinations of CD burn-
ers, CD burning software and CD blanks
may lead to problems arising with the
ability to play certain CDs. If problems
occur with your own burned CDs, you
should try another brand of CD blank or
choose another blank colour. Best re-
sults are achieved with CD blanks that
provide 74 minutes of playing time.
The format of the CD must be ISO 9660
Level 1 / Level 2 or Joliet. Other formats
cannot be played reliably.
Avoid multi-sessions. If you write more
than one session to the CD, only the
first session will be detected.
You can create a maximum of 255 di-
rectories on a CD. Each of these direc-
tories can be accessed using this de-
vice.
Each directory can in turn contain up to
255 tracks and subdirectories that can
also be accessed. A maximum of 8 lev-
els of directories are allowed.

position whilst calibration is taking place.
Equalizer for Acapulco MP52
This unit is equipped with an automatic
digital sound calibration feature. It pro-
vides you with three self-calibrating 5-
band equalizers.
The microphone position for situation 1
(e.g. for the driver alone) is at the height
of the driver’s head.
For situation 2, the microphone is be-
tween the driver and passenger.
The USER1 - USER3 equalizers can
be calibrated automatically with the help
of a special calibration microphone. You
can obtain this microphone from your
Blaupunkt dealer.
For Situation 3, it is in the middle of the
vehicle interior (left/right, front/back).
Really quiet surroundings are required
for the calibration.Any extraneous noise
will distort the measured values.
The automatically ascertained values
can also be adjusted manually. If you
want to adjust the equalizer manually,
please read the section entitled “Adjust-
ing the digital equalizer”.
Note:
The sound radiating from the loud-
speakers must not be obstructed by any
objects. All the loudspeakers must be
connected. The microphone must be
connected to the unit.
In addition, the unit is equipped with
sound presets.

also connect up a different external au-
dio source with a line output. Such

tems for route planning. Your car radio

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.
