To best protect your car audio system from theft, this unit has been equipped with a de- tachable control panel.

Detaching the release panel

Press the REL button on the top left of the radio to release the control panel. Then re- move the panel. You can remove the panel regardless of whether the unit is switched off or on.

Attaching the release panel

Slide the panel into the guide points on the right of the radio unit and then press the left side into the locking position gently until it snaps into place. Make sure that you do not press directly on the display.

The audio system will switch on in the ope- rating mode last used before the panel was removed.

Care of the control panel

After you have removed the release panel, protect it from any form of rough handling. Make sure it does not come into contact with any type of fluids. Store it away from direct sunlight and other sources of heat. The con- nection contact strip which is visible on the rear side of the panel must be in perfect condition to ensure that the system is able to function properly.

It is highly advisable to store the control panel in the protective case provided.

Fixing the release panel

To prevent unauthorised persons from re- moving the release panel, e. g. from a car audio systems showroom, you can fix the release panel to the chassis permanently to lock it into place. Screw the enclosed bolt into the hole on the left hand side of the unit when the release panel is in place, see ar- row.
