I've just bought my first Porsche - a 1999 Carrera 4. So far the dealer hasn't been able to supply a manual for the stereo, CDR-32, and I can't work out how to set up the presets etc. I've also drawn a blank trying to find a manual online to download. Can anyone please point me to an online location where I can find this manual, or suggest where else I might find one? Many thanks Ed

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Not a problem, mind you looking at the manual again today I'm still not sure what all of the features are!!!!

Welcome Ed! We have some of the Becker manuals hosted in the Menbers Only FAQ section of the 996 forum, but you can download one from here: [link=http://www.beckerautosound.com/Porsche/Porsche%20Menu.html]http://www.beckerautosound.com/Porsche/Porsche%20Menu.html[/link]. You might not be able to get a CR-32 manual, but the CR220 or CR22 will be similar, I think.
Hi Ed, Snap, I've got a similar age C4 with the same stereo. Where are you based as I have the elusive handbook and whilst I want to hang on to it I can always photocopy the relevant pages or even try and summarise the bits you need. Mark
Maybe not as mine is a CDR32. Mark
The CR23 was fitted to later 996s with the optical MOST ring.
I've never seen one, but they were an option on the pre-MOST cars. I have a feeling it might have been something to do with the DSP package. Any chance of one of you chaps posting a picture?
Here we go a couple of pictures to assist. Mark
One more.
Thanks Mark. It looks like it has exactly the same buttons as a CDR22, so I would imagine the manual will be virtually the same.
Many thanks for all of these responses. Mark - I'm based in Cheltenham, but before you go to any trouble with photocopying or whatever, let me try the CDR-22 download. I tried the CDR-23, but found it quite different. I've actually managed to work out the preset tuning now - sat in Tesco's car park and fiddled while partner shopped! - but it would be useful to understand all the other bells and whistles. I'll post again when I've tried the CDR-22 Thanks again Ed
Not a problem, mind you looking at the manual again today I'm still not sure what all of the features are!!!!
Hi there, I too have just bought a 996 with a CDR32 stereo and no manual, a manual would be great, but in the meantime if you have figured out how to turn the TP off that would help save my sanity, most of my drives involve the M25 and its permanent traffic announcements. Cheers Bruce
I never use mine, I just drop the window.
