Thank you for deciding to use a Blaupunkt product. We wish you a lot of fun with your new piece of equipment.

Before operating the TEV-501 (Travel Entertainment Video) unit for the first time, please read these operating instructions carefully and keep them in the TEV-501's case for future reference. Please observe the following safety instructions to ensure you operate the TEV-501 safely and in a manner that will not be of danger to anyone.

The TEV-501 must be connected to a switched power supply (e.g. the cigarette lighter) and must not be connected directly to the vehicle battery. To avoid the battery running flat, disconnect the TEV-501 from the power supply when not in use.

The TEV-501 must always be secured in its case using the Velcro straps. Fasten the unit to the eyelets at the side.

Ensure that the unit is attached and secured in accordance with these operating instructions.

The S-hooks and all the straps must be attached and fastened correctly to avoid the unit causing injury in the event of an accident.

To ensure that the TEV-501 is well ventilated, only operate the unit with the case opened.

Only use the supplied power supply unit. Always disconnect the power supply from the socket or cigarette lighter first, before disconnecting the cable from the TEV-501.
