NOTES AND ACCESSORIES  
Thank you for choosing a Blaupunkt  
product. We hope you enjoy using this  
new piece of equipment.  
Installation  
If you want to install your car sound sys-  
tem yourself, please read the installa-  
tion and connection instructions that  
follow these operating instructions.  
Please read these operating instruc-  
tions before using the equipment for  
the first time.  
Accessories  
Only use accessories approved by Blau-  
punkt.  
The Blaupunkt editors are constantly  
working on making the operating in-  
structions clearer and easier to under-  
stand. However, if you still have any Remote control  
questions on how to operate the device,  
please contact your dealer or the tele-  
phone hotline for your country. You will  
find the telephone number printed at the  
back of this booklet.  
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.  
We provide a manufacturer guarantee  
for our products bought within the Eu-  
ropean Union. You can view the guar-  
or ask for them directly at:  
You cannot switch the device on/off us-  
ing the remote control.  
Amplifiers  
You can use all Blaupunkt and Velocity  
amplifiers.  
Blaupunkt GmbH, Hotline CM/PSS,  
Robert Bosch Str. 200,  
D-31139 Hildesheim  
Germany  
CD changers  
You can connect the following Blaupunkt  
CD changers:  
CDC A 08, IDC A 09 and CDC A 03.  
Road safety  
Compact Drive MP3  
Road safety has absolute prior-  
ity. Only operate your car sound sys-  
tem if the road and traffic conditions  
allow you to do so. Familiarise your-  
self 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 reason-  
able volume level during your jour-  
ney.  
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 oper-  
ate the Compact Drive MP3 in the same way  
as a CD changer. Most of the CD-changer  
functions can also be used with the Com-  
pact Drive MP3.

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 will be able to cre-  
ate smaller files but this will be accom-  
panied by a loss in audio quality.

Preparing an MP3-CD  
The various combinations of CD burn-  
ers, CD burning software and CD blanks  
may lead to problems arising with the  
device’s ability to play certain CDs. If  
problems occur with your own burned  
CDs, you should try another brand of  
CD blank or choose another colour of  
CD blank.  
Press the eject button A next to  
the CD compartment.  
The CD is ejected.  
Remove the CD and close the con-  
trol panel.  
Note:  
If a CD is ejected, the drive will au-  
tomatically draw it back in again  
after 10 seconds.  
The format of the CD must be ISO 9660  
Level 1 / Level 2 or Joliet. Other formats  
cannot be played reliably.  
You can also eject CDs whilst the  
device is switched off or whilst an-  
other audio source is activated.  
You can create a maximum of 253 di-  
rectories on a CD. You can use this de-  
vice to access each of these directo-  
ries.  
Regardless of the number of directories  
on the CD, the device can handle up to  
65,535 MP3 files on a single CD - even  
if they are all stored in one directory.

sorting the files manually. To do so, you  
should place a number (e.g. “001”,  
“002”, etc.) at the beginning of each file

sound system has a TMC output, which  
you can use for connecting Blaupunkt  
navigation systems. You can find out  
from your Blaupunkt dealer which nav-  
igation systems can be used with your  
car sound system.  
The AUX input must be activated in the  
menu.  
If you want to connect an external au-  
dio source, you will need an adapter  
cable. You can obtain this cable (Blau-  
punkt no.: 7 607 897 093) from your
