Traffic safety

As the driver of a motor vehicle, it is your responsibility to pay attention to the traffic situation at all times. Never use your car radio in a way that could distract you. Please keep in mind that you travel a distance of 15 yards per second at a speed of only 30 miles per hour. Should the traffic situation become particularly demanding, we advise you not to use the radio. Always make sure that you are still able to hear any warning signals coming from outside of the vehicle, such as police or fire engine sirens, so that you can react accordingly. Therefore, you should always select a moderate volume for playing your car radio while you are driving.

Telephone mute

If you have a mobile telephone installed in your vehicle, radio or CD playback can be muted automatically when using the phone (telephone mute). PHONE will then appear in the display.

Accessories

Use only the accessories and spare parts approved by Blaupunkt. You can use the following Blaupunkt products with this car stereo: Changer CDC A 05 or CDC A 071

Important notes

KeyCard theft protection system
Remote control With the infrared steering wheel remote control and its signal-receiving apparatus you can control all of the important functions of your car audio system from the steering wheel. The Blaupunkt KeyCard Security System provides an effective and convenient means of theft deterrence. Each unit operates only when its own card is inserted. No card, no use. Its that simple.

Switching the audio source
Radio operation with RDS (Radio Data System)
The Radio Data System offers you more convenience when listening to FM radio stations. More and more radio stations have begun to broadcast RDS information alongside their programmes. As soon as a programme has been identified, the station name including a regional identifier, if applicable, will appear in the display, for example, NDR1 NDS (regional programme in Lower Saxony, Germany). When RDS is activated, the preset buttons become programme buttons. You now know exactly which programme you have tuned into, making it easy to find the desired station quickly. But RDS offers you further advantages: If SEARCH appears in the display when switching on the radio or recalling one of the stored frequencies, the unit is automatically searching for an alternative frequency. SEARCH will disappear from the display when the alternative frequency has been found or after the frequency band has been run through completely. If the reception quality of the selected programme becomes too bad: Tune into another station. If you leave the service area of the regional programme tuned into, or if you would like to take advantage of the full RDS service, switch to REG OFF. Press the AF button for approximately two seconds until REG OFF appears. REG ON or REG OFF will be briefly displayed each time the radio is switched on.

REG - regional programme

Certain radio programmes are split up at times into regional programmes offering local information. The 1st programme broadcast by NDR, for example, offers programmes with different contents in the northern states of Germany SchleswigHolstein, Hamburg and Lower Saxony at certain times of the day. If you are listening to one programme and move to an area where another linked regional programme becomes stronger, the unit will switch to that programme. If you wish to continue listening to the first programme, press the AF button for approximately two seconds. REG ON appears in the display.

AF - Alternative frequency
The AF (Alternative Frequency) function makes sure that the strongest frequency of the currently selected programme is always tuned in automatically. This function is activated when AF appears in the display. In order to switch this function on or off, press the AF button briefly. While searching for the strongest reception signal, the radio may switch to mute briefly.
