NOTES AND ACCESSORIES

Thank you for choosing a Blaupunkt product. We hope you enjoy using this new piece of equipment. Please read these operating instructions before using the equipment for the first time. The Blaupunkt editors are constantly working on making the operating instructions clearer and easier to understand. However, if you still have any questions on how to operate the device, please contact your dealer or the telephone hotline for your country. You will find the telephone number printed at the back of this booklet. We provide a manufacturer guarantee for our products bought within the European Union. You can view the guarantee conditions at www.blaupunkt.de or ask for them directly at: Blaupunkt GmbH, Hotline CM/PSS, Robert Bosch Str. 200, D-31139 Hildesheim Germany

Installation

If you want to install your car sound system yourself, please read the installation and connection instructions that follow these operating instructions.

Accessories

Only use accessories approved by Blaupunkt. Remote control The optional RC08 or RC10 remote control allows you to access the most important functions of your car sound system safely and conveniently from your steering wheel. Amplifiers You can use all Blaupunkt and Velocity amplifiers. CD changers You can connect the following Blaupunkt CD changers: CDC A 08, IDC A 09 and CDC A 03. Compact Drive MP3 You can connect the Compact Drive MP3 instead of a CD-changer in order to play MP3 music tracks. If you decide to connect a Compact Drive MP3, you will first need to use a computer to store the MP3 music tracks on the Microdrive hard disk that is inside the Compact Drive MP3. Then, when the Compact Drive MP3 is connected to the car sound system, you can play the tracks like normal CD music tracks. You can operate the Compact Drive MP3 in the same way as a CD changer. Most of the CD-changer functions can also be used with the Compact Drive MP3.

Road safety

Road safety has absolute priority. Only operate your car sound system if the road and traffic conditions allow you to do so. Familiarise yourself with the device before setting off on your journey. You should always be able to hear police, fire and ambulance sirens from afar. For this reason, listen to your car sound system at a reasonable volume level during your journey.
