INTRODUCTION
Proper system planning is vital in order to max-imize the device’s performance and road safety. Plan your installation carefully to avoid compro-mising performance reliability of the system. Consult an authorized Blaupunkt dealer for instal-lation or reparation. Read the manual carefully before operating the device for the first time.
Safety Notes
Ensure to follow below safety notes during instal-lation and wiring connection
: –
Disconnect the negative terminal of the
- battery. Refer to the safety notes of vehicle manufacturer.
- Ensure positions of the holes are nowhere near the vehicle component to avoid any damage during drilling.
- Ensure cross section of the cable is no less than 2.5mm2 if the positive and negative cables are too long.
- Incorrect installation may result in malfunc-tion of the device or the car sound system.
Installation and Connection Instructions
- Select a dry and well-ventilated location to install the device.
- The device must not be installed on the rear shelf, rear seats or exposed locations.
- The installation location must be suitable for screw holes and have stable ground support.
Intergrated Fuse
The integrated fuse in the device protects the output voltage and the entire electrical system in case of malfunction. Do not replace damaged fuse with higher current.
Switching On/Off
This device will automatically turn on if audio signal is detected. The device
will also auto-matically turn off if audio signal is received.
Voltage Supply
Use the supplied power extension cable to connect to the positive battery
terminal. Firmly and carefully connect the ground lead to a bare metal point
on the vehicle chassis. The control of the device should be a
two-channel control, either via the preampli-fier output of the car sound
system.
A control solely via the right or left channel is also possible since the low-
frequency portion of the music is generally identical on both channels.
Remote Control
Turn the knob to adjust the volume to the desired level.

Examine if remote input has at least 5V DC.
Examine if battery power is connected correctly to the + terminal.
Ensure supplied voltage is minimum 12V.
Examine if fuse is broken and replace if necessary.
Restart the device if protection LED light is on.
Protection LED lights on when turn on| Examine speaker wire had short-circuit.
Turn volume down from head unit to prevent overdriving the device.
Device might need service or repair, if protection LED light is still on after
resetting the device.
No sound output| Examine fuses and replace if necessary.
Examine ground connection is intact.
Examine if remote input has at least 5V DC.
Examine if RCA audio cables are connected to the right inputs.
Examine if speaker wiring is intact.
Low sound output| Reset Level Control
Examine the Crossover Control setting.
Buzzing noise| Observe if the device is still producing noise after turning on
and off the amplifier. If yes, examine if the cables are correctly connected
and if the cables and radio are in good condition. Repair or replace if the
cables or the
radio are not in good condition.
Squealing noise
interference
| Ensure RCA connections are properly connected.
Distorted sound output| Ensure input level of the device matches the signal
level of the head unit.
Always set the input level to the lowest.
Examine if crossover frequency is set correctly.
Examine if speaker wire had short-circuit.
Amplifier temperature increased| Examine the minimum speaker impedance for the
amp models is correct.
Ensure good air ventilation around the device. Add external cooling fan if
necessary.
Engine noise (static
sound)interference
| Usually caused by poor RCA cable quality, which release noise. Use only the
best quality cables, and route them away from power cables.
Engine noise (alterna-
tor whine) interference
