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
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.
Antenna installation
The vehicle-specific rod or window antenna is used for AM/FM reception.
Depending on the installation place of this antenna, the attached pas
sive ADA window antenna is either mounted to the windscreen or the back
light, following the enclosed installation instructions.
If the vehicle-specific antenna is mounted in the rear section of the
roof, on the mudguard or in the backlight, the ADA antenna has to be
mounted in the windscreen.
If the vehicle-specific antenna is mounted in the front section of the
roof, on the mudguard or in the windscreen, the ADA antenna has to be
mounted in the backlight.
For backlight installation, mount the ADA antenna above or under the
defroster.
Make sure that the reception elements of the ADA antenna do not
cross the heating wires of the backlight defroster!
Antenna connection
Connect the vehicle-specific antenna to antenna jack 1 (lower socket)
and the ADA antenna to antenna jack 2 (upper socket), see figure 8.
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. Audi A4/A6/A8: 7 608 0214 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.

Use the connection cable attached to the remote control. If necessary, also
use cables 7 607 647 093 and 7 607 648 000.
When using the IR remote control, QuickOut operation is not possible.
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.
Notes on connection, fig. 4
Ground cable
br
Do not connect the ground cable to the negative pole of the battery.
Route the ground cable to a suitable ground point (car body screw, car body
metal sheet) and shorten it accordingly.
Remove the insulation from the ground cable and attach the forked cable
lug (if necessary, solder it).
Scratch off the paint from the contact area of the ground point and lubricate
it with graphite grease (important for good ground contact).
Screw on the ground cable.
Positive cable (ACC + 12 V) (ignition) rt
If the plus cable is connected to pin 15 of the fuse holder (plus connected
via ignition lock) downstream of the fuse, the in-car radio can be switched
on and off with the ignition key.In addition, the set automatically switches
off after one our in order to avoid that the battery goes flat.
The hour logic will not be activated whrn connecting the permanent +12 V
line (terminal 30).
Permanent plus connection (Battery +12 V) rt
Do not use the positive cable installed in the car.
Route the positive cable (thick red cable of 2.5 mm
route the cable near the cable harnesses). Connect the fuse holder to
protect the positive cable and connect it to the positive pole of the battery
(if necessary, drill a hole into the fire wall and use cable ducts).
Control cable (Power Antenna +) ge/gn
The control cable represents the switched positive output for external
components, e.g. motor antennas.
Do not connect the control cable to pin 15 (switched +) or pin 30 (perma-
nent +12 V).
Control cable (Amplifier) bl
The control cable represents the switched positive output for external
components, e.g. amplifiers, equalizers.
Do not connect the control cable to pin 15 (switched +) or pin 30 (perma-
nent +12 V).
Lighting connection (Illumination) or
Lighting connection for vehicles with adjustable dashboard lighting (plus-
controlled).
Telephone mute (Low) gr
If you have connected a car telephone, your car radio will be mutet during
telephone calls.
