Page 31: Installation Instructions
Don’t assume that a seemingly-matching wire harness in the vehicle matches the receiver’s wire harness wire-for-wire. Make sure before you connect anything! Your Blaupunkt dealer may be able to sell you adapter harnesses for your vehicle, which can make connections much easier. - Page 32 Connect the black (power ground) lead to a grounded metal part on the vehicle. We recommend grounding all audio system black ground leads (receiver, changer,-additional amplifiers, etc.) to a common grounding point, preferably a non-painted surface under the instrument panel. Fig.
- Page 33 “speaker”) to each of the receivers’ four pairs of speaker leads. With the Blaupunkt preamp output adapter 7 607 893 093 (available separately], you can provide 4-channel preamp output to additional external amplifiers and power multiple speakers or speaker systems through those amplifiers.
- Page 34 If a changer is not connected, you can connect portable audio equipment to your receiver by purchasing Blaupunkt accessory harness 7 607 897 093. It connects to the right top block on the rear of the receiver. It includes a 2-meter aux-in cable with a 3.5 mm male plug for direct insert into your portable equipment.
- Page 35 The illustration below shows a typical installation, however, you may need to adjust the installation, depending on the receiver. If you have questions or need additional installation hardware, consult your Blaupunkt dealer. Make sure the receiver anchored (preferably at both front and back) and does not vibrate.
