Use the device only for the intended purpose.

The device should be installed in such a way that existing ventilation holes are not covered.

Never open the housing of the device. Incorrect repairs can constitute a considerable risk for the user. If the device is damaged it should not be used, but repaired by a specialist.

The symbol with an exclamation mark should advise the user of important operation or maintenance instructions in the accompanying documentation.

Devices bearing this symbol work with a „class 1 laser“ for tracing the CD. The built-in safety switches should prevent the user being exposed to dangerous laser light, which is invisible to the human eye, when the CD compartment is opened.

Under no circumstances should these safety switches be bypassed or manipulated, as this could result in a danger of exposure to the laser light.

Road Safety

• Road safety is of paramount importance. You should therefore use your car radio at all times in such a way that you are able to cope with the current traffic situation.
• Please remember that at a speed of 30 mph (50 kph) you travel 15 yards (14 metres) in one second.
  We advise you not to operate the radio in critical situations.
  It must be possible to hear the sirens of police and fire brigade vehicles etc. from inside the vehicle in good time.
• When driving you should therefore not turn the radio volume up excessively.

When installing and connecting the radio please note the following safety information.

• First disconnect the minus pole and then the plus pole of the battery. (connection in the reverse order.)

Please note: Once the battery has been disconnected the information is lost from all volatile memory. Please note the safety information provided by the vehicle manufacturer.

GB

• The main fuse must be installed as closely as possible (not more than 30~cm away) to the plus pole of the battery so that the car is protected from any cable fire caused, for example, by an accident. If the above is not complied with the insurance protection no longer applies.
• The cross-section of the plus and minus cable must not exceed 1.5mm^2
• When drilling holes please ensure that none of the vehicle components are damaged.

Installation Tips:

• Cable protection sleeves protect cables against fraying on sharp body parts.
• The insulation of the cables must not be damaged during installation.
  It is essential to use the correct tools when installing car hi-fi.

Depending on the model, your vehicle may deviate from the above description. We do not accept any liability for damage caused by installation or connection errors or for consequential damage.

Installation

Please install the car radio as shown below

a Nut
b Spring washer
c Plain washer
d Screw
e Mounting bracket
f Slide-in housing
g Threaded bolt

Note:

h Retaining screws during transport (please remove before installation)
I Extraction tool (spanner for dismantling)
j Frame

First place the operating panel in position on the right-hand side and then lock it into place on the left.

GB

Connection

Connect the device as shown in the diagram.

Note:

• Do not attach the removable control panel until after connection of the cables.
  Please use loudspeakers with an impedance of 4 ohm.

Important Information for installing your carradio!

1. The screws (h) of the transport locking device should be removed before installation, as otherwise the CD cannot be inserted.
2. The device is designed for the minus pole of the battery, which must be connected to the body of the vehicle. Please check this before installation.
3. When installing/connecting your device please note that not every vehicle is equipped with an "ISO connection". In this case we recommend the use of an ISO adapter specifically designed for your vehicle.

GB

Adapters are available from car accessory shops and/or from your vehicle workshop.

1. Depending on the specific car type, different wiring connection of the "Duration +" wire (Constant current connection) are available. (However, this is necessary for storing the radio stations).

In order to guarantee all functions, installation in line with these instructions is essential. In cases of doubt please contact an authorised car workshop.

1. The angle of inclination when a car radio is installed must not exceed 20^ , as in the case of greater angles of inclination the function of the car radio (CD Player) can no longer be guaranteed.
2. Depending on the specific car type, interferences can be possibly arise during radio/CD operation. These interferences can avoided easily with an additional Interferences filter. Your car radio is originally prepared with an Interference Filter already.

In these case, please contact your authorized car dealer.

1. When installing your radio please ensure that there is enough space at the rear of the radio to ensure sufficient cooling.
2. For the antenna connection there are two different norms. The first of these is the old (50 ohm) version with a long protruding round contact on the vehicle and a round socket on the radio end. The second is the ISO-standardised antenna plug (150 ohm). Adapters for both formats are available from accessory manufacturers and/or your car workshop.

Important information for VW/Audi vehicles: The active antenna requires voltage on the shielding of the antenna coaxial cable, without which reception is unsatisfactory. An antenna adapter with phantom power supply will solve this problem.

Operating Instructions

1. If the front control panel is removed while the radio or CD is on, the device is automatically switched off.
2. Error. After the front panel has been reinserted an error message (ERROR) appears in the display. Use a piece of wire or similar item to press the RESET button (28) in order to return the electronics to its original state. With the control panel removed this button is located in the lower right-hand corner.
3. If the interior of the vehicle becomes very hot, for example after standing in direct sunlight for a prolonged period, do not switch on the player until the inside of the vehicle has cooled down a little after you have been driving for a few minutes.
4. In order to keep the removable control panel in a safe place you should always use the protective case provided.
5. Playback of CDs produced by the user cannot be guaranteed due to the large variety of software and CD media available.

- LOUD ON/LOUD OFF

Switching the LOUDNESS function on and off.

When the volume is low the LOUDNESS function (LOUD) expands the sound characteristics by increasing the treble and bass sounds.

STEREO/MONO switching (only possible during radio operation).

• LOCAL/DX (EON) (only available during radio operation)

Your radio can receive RDS EON data. The term „EON“ signifies the transmission of additional station information within a station chain, e.g. WDR. If a traffic announcement (TA) is made within a station chain, the radio switches from a station which does not transmit traffic announcements to one that does within the same station chain. Reception of this station data is shown in the display by the EON symbol. You can choose between the EONTA LOCAL and EONTA DISTANCE mode for local or long-distance traffic news. The purpose of this function is to prevent the radio switching unnecessarily to an EON-TA traffic news item. If an EON station is a long distance away, it may be that in some cases EON TA information can still be received from the station. The radio then switches to this EON station and tries to receive the traffic announcements. The signal is too weak, however, and reception is poor as this EON station is too far away. Therefore the radio switches back to the station that was set previously.

During the type of operation described above the listener hears the wrong programme for a short time or nothing at all.

EONTA LOCAL:

This function prevents switching to an EON station whose signal is too weak. The radio does not switch to this station and the listener does not hear any interference.

EONTA-

DISTANCE Mode:

In this mode the EONTA circuitry tries to receive the EONTA information from any available transmitter and thus improve reception quality.

VOL LAST/VOL ADJ

VOL LAST: The radio switches on at the actual volume it had when it was last switched off

20. AF (Alternative Frequencies) REG Function

a) AF is a function that works with the help of RDS (Radio Data System) and can only be used with FM stations. The radio searches in the background for the best frequency reception of the station that has been tuned into. If the AF function has been switched on, the radio continuously tests the signal strength of the AF frequency. The test interval for each AF frequency depends on the signal strength of the current station and varies from a few minutes in the case of a strong signal to a few seconds in the case of weak signals. Whenever the new AF frequency is stronger than the station that is currently tuned in, the radio switches to this frequency for a short time and the message „NEW FREQUENCY“ is displayed for one to two seconds. As the mute time during the frequency change and the test time is very short, this is almost inaudible during the normal programme.

The AF function is activated by briefly pressing the A.F button and the status of the AF function is shown in the display by an AF symbol.

• If the AF symbol appears in the display, the AF function is switched on and RDS transmission data is being received.
• If the AF symbol flashes in the display, the AF function is selected but no RDS signal can be received at the moment.
• Press the A.F button again to switch off this function. The AF symbol in the display goes off.

b) REG Function

At certain times some stations divide up their programmes into regional programmes with varying content.

REG ON: If the A.F button is pressed for a longer time the regional mode is switched on. The message „REG ON“ appears in the display for a few seconds.

GB

Note: The display capacity is limited. It is possible that in the double display mode some segments of the display are deleted.

The function REG ON prevents the radio from switching to alternative frequencies which have a different regional programme content.

REG OFF: Pressing the A.F button again for a longer time switches off the regional mode. The message „REG OFF“ appears in the display for a few seconds.

The programme identification (PI) of the regional programme is ignored during the search for an alternative frequency (AF) or a programme identification (PI).

Handling a CD

Cleaning the CD

Before playing a CD, wipe it off with a clean, dust-free cleaning cloth. Pull out the CD in the direction of the arrow.

Note: Do not use any solvents such as petrol or thinning agents. Commercially available cleaning substances or antistatic sprays will damage the device.

Inserting the CD

If the CD is inserted with the printed side facing downwards, the device may be damaged.

Always insert the CD with the label facing upwards.

Note: If there is already a CD in the CD slit, do not try to insert a second CD. This may damage the device.

Touching the CD

Always hold CDs by the edge. In order to keep the CD clean do not touch the surface.

• Do not attach any stickers or adhesive tape to the CD.

• Do not expose the CD to direct sunlight or sources of heat such as heating pipes. Do not leave CDs in the car if it is parked in direct sunlight as this will lead to a considerable rise in the temperature inside the car.

• Check all CDs for cracks, scratches and warping before you play them. It is possible that CDs that are damaged in this way cannot be played back correctly. Such CDs should not be used.

• Use only standard commercially available circular CDs with a 12cm diameter! CDs with an 8cm diameter or CDs with contours, e.g. of a butterfly or heart, are not suitable. It is possible that such CDs may not only be destroyed themselves, but may also destroy the drive of the CD player. We cannot accept liability for damage caused by the use of unsuitable CDs.
