Important notes  
Optical indication of theft protection  
Blaupunkt also offers designer KeyCards for  
an additional fee.  
What you must know!  
When the car is stationary, you can let the  
KeyCard tongue flash in order to show that  
the set is theft-protected. DSC allows you to  
adjust two different settings: LED ON or LED  
OFF.  
Beforestartingtouseyournewcarradio, you  
should carefully read through the following  
information.  
You can find the service providers listed in  
the car radio service register ( ). In case of  
doubt, please contact the central service  
centre in your country for more information  
on the next KeyCard service facility in your  
vicinity.  
The following functions can be individually  
stored with the KeyCard (1 and 2): bass,  
treble, balance and fader settings, preset  
stations, loudness, TA (volume of traffic an-  
nouncements), SPEECH (tone control for  
speech programs), BEEP volume, SCANTI-  
ME, VOLFIX.  
Moreover, theparametersadjustedlastsuch  
as the waveband, station, TA priority, loud-  
ness, AF, CPS, Dolby B, RM, REG ON/OFF  
or seek tuning sensitivity remain stored.  
With this, you will always find your basic  
settings adjusted again after you have inser-  
ted your KeyCard.  
Traffic safety  
For more information, please read through  
chapter “DSC programming - LED ON/OFF”.  
As the driver of a motor vehicle, it is your  
responsibility to pay attention to the traffic  
situationatalltimes.Neveruseyourcarradio  
in a way that could distract you.  
Please keep in mind that you travel a di-  
stance of 14 m per second at a speed of only  
50 km/h.  
Should the traffic situation become particu-  
larly demanding, we would advise you not to  
use the radio.  
When adjusting the volume, make sure that  
you are still able to hear all sounds coming  
from outside of the vehicle, so that you are  
always able to react to warning signals, for  
example from the police or the fire brigade.  
KeyCard  
This car radio cannot be operated unless the  
corresponding KeyCard is inserted. The  
KeyCard code is stored in the set.  
Turn on the set and introduce the KeyCard  
completely. The car radio is now ready for  
operation. When inserting a wrong KeyCard,  
the display will show “----”.  
After approximately 10 seconds the display  
shows CARD ERR.  
In this case do not go on operating the set  
until you have the corresponding KeyCard  
available.  
Never try to pull out the KeyCard by force.  
First, slightly push in the card, which will then  
be released (the display shows LEARNING),  
and then remove it.  
Should you have lost your KeyCard, or if it  
hasbecomedamaged, pleasecontactoneof  
our authorised service partners to get a new  
card.  
Installation/connection  
If you like to install your new car radio by  
yourself or add other audio components to  
the existing ones, then please read carefully  
the enclosed instructions on installation and  
connection.

Radio operation with RDS (Radio Data System)  
Replacing a KeyCard  
The Radio Data System offers you more cally searching for an alternative frequency.  
convenience for listening to FM.  
An ever increasing number of FM radio sta- has found an alternative frequency or after

allel with their normal program.

“NDR1 NDS” (local radio program in Lower  
Saxony, Germany).  
With RDS, the preset buttons turn into pro-  
gram buttons. Now you know exactly to  
which program your set is tuned in, making it  
absolutely easy to find the desired station  
quickly.

REG - Regional  
Take out KeyCard 1 and insert the new  
KeyCard 2 while the display is still  
showing LEARNING.  
At some times of the day, larger radio stati-  
ons split up their main program into regional  
program versions offering local information.  
If you want the radio to lock onto a regional  
program,  
You can use the new KeyCard 2 to operate  
the set.  
But RDS even offers you more advantages:  
To turn it on, you can only employ one Key-  
Card 1 or 2.  
hold down the AF button for about 2  
seconds.  
AF - alternative frequency  
The display will show “REG ON”.  
If you leave the service area of the regional  
station tuned in, or if you wish to use the  
normal RDS service again, switch to “REG  
OFF”.  
The AF function makes sure that the stron-  
gest frequency of the selected program is  
always tuned in automatically.  
This function is activated if “AF” lights up in  
the display.  
Hold down the AF button for about 2  
To switch AF on/off:  
seconds until “REG OFF” is displayed.  
Press AF briefly.  
The display will show “REG ON” or “REG  
OFF” each time the radio is switched on.  
During seek tuning for the frequency offering  
the best reception of the selected program,  
the radio is muted for a moment.  
If “SEARCH” appears in the display when  
turning on the set or when calling up one of  
the stored frequencies, the set is automati-

Storing the strongest stations  
automatically with Travelstore  
You can use the Travelstore memory bank to  
automatically store the six strongest FM sta-  
tions sorted on the preset buttons according  
to their signal strength. This feature is espe-  
cially useful when travelling, because it will

With this function you can briefly sample all  
preset stations of a waveband. Choose the  
desired SCANTIME in the DSC menu.  
If no station is selected during the search  
operation, the scan function will be automa-  
tically switched off after the entire frequency  
band has been passed through. The radio  
will then return to the initial station that was  
being played when the scan function was  
activated.  
Briefly press PS/SCA.  
The radio will briefly play all the stored  
stations of the tuned in waveband one

Reception of traffic announcements with RDS-EON (Enhanced Other Networks)  
Many FM broadcasters provide their service  
area with traffic messages at regular inter-  
vals.  
Warning beep  
Automatic seek tuning start  
Whenever you leave the reception area of  
the traffic program station you have tuned  
into,youwillhearawarningbeepafterappro-  
ximately 30 seconds.  
Thiswarningbeepwillalsobereleasedwhen  
pressing a preset without a traffic program.  
Prerequisite:  
Priority for traffic announcements is activa-  
ted.  
All traffic program stations transmit a special  
telegram signal in addition to the radio pro-  
gram, which is recognised and decoded by  
the car radio. As soon as such a signal is  
received, the display shows “TP” (Traffic  
Program).  
Other radio stations do not air traffic an-  
nouncements by themselves, but offer the  
possibility to receive the traffic announce-  
ments of another station within the same  
radio network. In this case, “TP” will light up  
in the display as soon as the priority for traffic  
announcements is activated. The display  
must then show “TA”.  
If you leave the reception area of your traffic  
program while listening to a tape or disc or  
when having turned down the volume com-  
pletely, the car radio will automatically tune  
into another traffic program station.  
If no such traffic program station is found  
within approximately 30 seconds, tape or  
disc reproduction will be interrupted and the  
system will send out a warning beep. To  
switch off the warning beep, proceed as  
described above.  
Switching the warning beep off  
a) Tune to another traffic program station:  
Press the rocker switch, or  
press a preset button with a station  
offering traffic information.  
Alternative:  
b) Switch off the priority for traffic an-  
nouncements:  
Adjusting the traffic message  
volume  
If a traffic announcement comes in, your  
radio will automatically switch to the traffic  
program for the duration of the message and  
return to the previous station after the end of  
the message.  
Press TA.  
In the display, the “TA” indication  
goes out.  
The volume of the warning beep and of the  
currently played traffic message has been  
pre-adjusted at the factory. However, you  
can change this default setting using the  
DSC function (see “DSC programing - TA  
LEVEL”).  
You can reduce the beep tone volume to  
the pre-selected mute volume.

We recommend that you use only C-60/C-90  
cassette tapes in your car radio. Protect your  
cassettes from dirt, dust and temperatures  
exceeding 50 °C. During cold weather, allow  
cold cassettes to warm up somewhat before  
playing them in order to avoid uneven tape  
transport. Operating problems and sound  
distortions may occur after approximately  
100 hours of playing time and are caused by  
dust particles which adhere to the rubber  
roller and the audio head.

DSC programming  
This car radio offers direct software control  
(DSC), which allows you to adapt a number
