NOTES AND ACCESSORIES
Thank you for choosing a Blaupunkt
product. We hope you will enjoy your
new equipment.
Fitting
If you want to fit your car radio yourself,
read the fitting and connecting notes at
the end of the guide.
Please read these instructions before
using for the first time. Blaupunkt’s edi-
tors are constantly working to write clear,
generally understandable instructions
for use. If you still have questions about
how to use your equipment, please re-
fer to your dealer or to the telephone
hotline in your country.You will find the
telephone numbers on the back of this
booklet.
Accessories
Only use accessories approved by Blau-
punkt.
Remote control
The optional RC 08 and RC 10 remote
control units allow you to control your
car radio’s basic functions safely and
conveniently from the steering wheel.
Road Safety
Amplifiers
Road safety has the first priority.
Only make adjustments to your car
radio when the traffic conditions al-
low. Familiarise yourself with the de-
vice before you start driving.
You must be able to hear audible
alarms from police vehicles, fire en-
gines or ambulances promptly inside
the vehicle.
Any Blaupunkt amplifier can be used
(Not for Dakota CD31).
CD Changer
The following Blaupunkt CD changers
can be connected:
CDC A 06, CDC A 08, CDC A 072 or
IDC A 09.
The use of an adapter cable (Blaupunkt
no.7 607 889 093) also allows the CDC
A 05 or CDC A 071 CD changers to be
connected.
You should therefore listen at an ap-
propriate volume when travelling.
