Notes on Safety
Instructions for installation and connection
Disconnect the battery ground wire during installation and connection.
When drilling a hole, be sure not to damage any vehicle part (battery,
cable, fuse, etc.).
The positive cable must have a cross-section of at least 2,5 mm
2
. The unit
is protected by a quick-acting fuse of 10 A. Do not use the positive cable
installed ex factory.
The side panel of the car radio heats up considerably during
operation.
Attention: Pay attention that the cables do not contact with the
housing.
Connection with in-vehicle system plugs
Do not use the positive/negative system
connectors provided in the vehicle!
For connecting all positive and negative wiring, use connection
cable 7 607 884 093, fig. 4, 5.
Some Mercedes vehicles are equipped with a 10-pin connector located
in the installation compartment.
This connector must not be hooked up to car radio, since otherwise the
positive supply line feeding the antenna or amplifier would be short-
circuited to ground! As a result, one of the conductive tracks in the radio
would start burning.
Note:
By means of the support included in the delivery you can mount the set
in cars with a DIN car radio cut-outout of 182 x 53 mm, an installation
depth of 165 mm and an instrument panel thickness around the fixing
clips of 1 - 20 mm, see fig. 1.
For cars with other cut-out dimensions Blaupunkt delivers car-specific
installation kits for common car types for 50/52 mm sets.
Please check the dimensions and, if necessary, use a car-specific
installation kit, e. g. VW Golf II / Jetta II/: 7 608 3824 73.
When using installation sets for units of 52 mm four distance plates, order
number 8 601 055 056, must be used, fig. 1a.
Preparation of car radio installation
Install the car radio into the DIN cut-out provided in your car’s dashboard
ex factory.
Prepare the car radio DIN cut-out (unlock shelf or dummy cover) or cut
out the car radio compartment to 182 x 53 mm.
Grasp behind the car radio cut-out and check how many of the fixing
strips of the car radio support can be bent.
Note: Try to bend as many fixing strips as possible.
Insert the support into the cut-out and bend the appropriate fixing strips
with a screwdriver, see fig. 1, 2.

Connection with QuickOut installed ex factory
If your car is fitted with a QuickOut ex factory (at present Opel), the
QuickOut ex factory has to be removed.
Car radio installation
Insert the car radio from the front into the support and push in until the
stop springs on the sides engage right and left (distinct click to be heard).
Removal of the car radio
Insert the brackets right and left into the provided trimplate holes and
push in until you hear a distinct click (lateral springs are unlocked).
Using both brackets (see fig. 3), pull the unit out.
Note
Locked brackets can only be removed after taking out the unit.

DSA
Digital Signal Adaptation
With DSA, you can recall and tune in equalizer functions and activate the
dynamic driving noise covering function.
Overview of equalizer functions
The HiFi reproduction in a car is affected, for example, by the interior
fittings (upholstery, windows), loudspeaker positioning, etc.
With the integrated equalizer, you can tune in nine frequency bands per
channel: 60 Hz, 125 Hz, 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1 kHz, 2 kHz, 4 kHz, 8 kHz,
16 kHz.
You can store and recall different settings in five memory banks each
(preset buttons 1 to 5):
With preset button 6, the corresponding equalizer is deactivated.
For optimal acoustic control, the following alternatives are available:
Self-calibrating equalizer
(HiFi calibration)
The set is equipped with a self-calibrating, adaptive 9-band equalizer for
four channels.
This function allows you to adjust precise sound settings for each
individual speaker (front left, front right, rear left, rear right) by electronic
calibration and to store them on the preset buttons.
Manual equalizer
It is also possible to manually adjust different equalizer curves for the
front and rear speakers and to store them on the preset buttons.
Preset equalizer
(Default allocation of equalizer)
Preset equalizer settings can be recalled with buttons 1 to 6, or with
/
/ << >>.
1 ROCK, 2 DISCO, 3 JAZZ, 4 CLASSIC, 5 VOCAL, 6 P - EQ OFF
HiFi calibration
You can perform and store electronic calibration for five different situations.
These calibrations are stored and recalled with the buttons 1 to 5. You
can select the following situations, for example:
1
For the driver only
2
For driver and front passenger
3
Front passenger
4
Passengers front and rear
5
Rear passengers only
You deactivate the equalizer with button 6 (“EQ OFF” in the display.)
To calibrate, you have to fix the microphone lead (microphone opening
pointing down) to the roof lining with adhesive tape.
The position of the microphone for situation 1 (driver alone) is directly on
a level with the driver’s head. For situation 2, the microphone is between
the driver and the front passenger, for situation 3 on a level with the front
passenger’s head, etc.
Starting the HiFi calibration
The situation has to be really quiet for calibration, extraneous noises give
a false reading.
There should be no-one in the car, objects must not impair the reflection
of the loudspeakers. The system must be switched on.
•
Position the microphone for the situation to be programmed.
Incorrect calibrations result when the microphone is wrongly positioned.
Depending on the vehicle and on the installtion position of the speakers,
calibration may be linear or with a bass boost. Try out which setting you
like more.
