Removable control panel
Theft protection
As a way of protecting your car radio
against theft, the unit is equipped with
a removable control panel (flip-release
panel). Without this control panel, the
car radio is worthless to a thief.
Protect your equipment against theft by
taking the control panel with you every
time you leave your vehicle. Do not
leave the control panel in your vehicle -
not even in a hiding place.
The control panel has been designed
to be easy to use.
Note:
● Never drop the control panel.
● Never expose the control panel to
direct sunlight or other heat sourc-
es.
● Store the control panel in the sup-
plied case.
● Avoid making direct skin contact
with the control panel’s contacts. If
necessary, clean the contacts with
a lint-free cloth soaked in alcohol.

opens.
➮ First, pull the control panel straight
off the unit and then out towards
the left.

● All the current settings are saved.
● Any CD already inserted in the unit
remains there.
Attaching the control panel
➮ Slide the control panel from left to
right into the unit’s guide.
➮ Press the left-hand edge of the
control panel into the unit until it

Note:
Please note that the detachable control
panel must remain closed whilst driv-
ing (risk of injury in the event of an acci-
dent).
Note:
● When attaching the control panel,
make sure you do not press the
display.
If the device was still switched on when
you removed the control panel, it will
automatically switch on again with the
last settings activated (i.e. radio, CD,
MMC/SD, CD changer/Compact Drive
MP3 or AUX) when the panel is re-
placed.
