To prevent injury or fire, take the following

precautions:

· Insert the unit all the way in until it is fully locked in

place. Otherwise it may fall out of place when

jolted.

· When extending the ignition, battery, or ground

wires, make sure to use automotive-grade wires or

other wires with a 0.75mm2 (AWG18) or more to

prevent wire deterioration and damage to the wire

coating.

· To prevent a short circuit, never put or leave any

metallic objects (such as coins or metal tools) inside

the unit.

· If the unit starts to emit smoke or strange smells,

turn off the power immediately and consult your

Kenwood dealer.

· Make sure not to get your fingers caught between

the faceplate and the unit.

· Be careful not to drop the unit or subject it to strong

shock.

The unit may break or crack because it contains

glass parts.

To prevent damage to the machine, take

the following precautions:

· Make sure to ground the unit to a negative 12V DC

power supply.

· Do not open the top or bottom covers of the unit.

· Do not install the unit in a spot exposed to direct

sunlight or excessive heat or humidity. Also avoid

places with too much dust or the possibility of

water splashing.

· Do not install the unit in a spot exposed to direct

sunlight or excessive heat or humidity. Also avoid

places with too much dust or the possibility of

water splashing.

· Do not subject the faceplate to excessive shock, as

it is a piece of precision equipment.

2CAUTION

2WARNING

· When replacing a fuse, only use a new one with the

prescribed rating. Using a fuse with the wrong

rating may cause your unit to malfunction.

· To prevent a short circuit when replacing a fuse,

first disconnect the wiring harness.

· Do not place any object between the faceplate and

the unit.

· Do not use your own screws. Use only the screws

provided. If you use the wrong screws, you could

damage the unit.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

About the disc changer to be connected:

To connect a disc changer having the "O-N" switch

to this unit, set the "O-N" switch to "N".

When you connect a model with no "O-N" switch,

the converter cord CA-DS100 available as an option

may be required. For details, consult your Kenwood

dealer.

If a model with no "O-N" switch is connected, some

unavailable functions and information that cannot be

displayed are generated, such as the DNPS, DNPP,

Magazine random play, and CD Text display.

Note that none of the KDC-C100, KDC-C302, C205,

C705, and non-Kenwood CD changers can be

connected.

You can damage both your unit and the CD

changer if you connect them incorrectly.

The illustrations of the display and the panel

appearing in this manual are examples used to

explain more clearly how the controls are used.

Therefore, what appears on the display in the

illustrations may differ from what appears on the

display on the actual equipment, and some of the

illustrations on the display may represent

something impossible in actual operation.

NOTE

2CAUTION

· CD-Rs and CD-RWs which have not undergone

finalization processing cannot be played. (For more

information on finalization processing, refer to the

manual for your CD-R/CD-RW writing software or

CD-R/CD-RW recorder.) Additionally, depending on

the recording status, it may prove impossible to

play certain CDs recorded on CD-R or CD-RW.

· If you experience problems during installation,

consult your Kenwood dealer.

· If the unit does not seem to be working right, try

pressing the reset button first. If that does not solve

the problem, consult your Kenwood dealer.

Cleaning the Unit

If the faceplate of this unit is stained, wipe it with a

dry soft cloth such as a silicon cloth.

If the faceplate is stained badly, wipe the stain off

with a cloth moistened with neutral cleaner, then

wipe neutral detergent off.

Applying spray cleaner directly to the unit may

affect its mechanical parts. Wiping the front panel

with a hard cloth or using a volatile liquid such as

thinner or alcohol may scratch the surface or

erases characters.

Handling Cassette Tapes

· Do not play a cassette whose tape has gone slack.

In such a case, wind it tight using a pencil or the like

in one of the spools. Playing slack cassette tapes

can result in the tape tangling around the capstan

and/or pinch rollers, causing trouble.

· Do not play a deformed cassette or one whose

label is starting to come off, as it can cause the unit

to malfunction.

· Do not leave tapes in hot places, such as on

dashboards and other spots exposed to direct

sunlight, or near heater outlets. They can deform

the cassette.

· Avoid using extremely long cassette tapes, such as

100-minute-long tapes. Such tapes are very thin,

and can tangle easily around the pinch rollers or

other parts inside the unit, causing unit failure.

· Remove a cassette tape from the unit when not

listening to it for a while. If you leave a tape in the

unit too long, it may stick to the tape head and

cause unit malfunction.

Cleaning the Tape Head

After you have listened to many cassettes over a

long period of time, magnetic powder from the

tapes and dust accumulates on the tape head,

causing noise and a deterioration in sound quality.

Clean the tape head using a cleaning tape or

cleaning kit designed for use in car audio systems.

Cleaning the CD Slot

As dust tends to accumulate in the CD slot, clean it

every once in a while. Your CDs can get scratched if

you put them in a dusty CD slot.

Lens Fogging

Right after you turn on the car heater in cold

weather, dew or condensation may form on the

lens in the CD player of the unit. Called lens

fogging, CDs may be impossible to play. In such a

situation, remove the disc and wait for the

condensation to evaporate. If the unit still does not

operate normally after a while, consult your

Kenwood dealer.

Use of controls or adjustments or performance

of procedures other than those specified herein

may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

In compliance with Federal Regulations,

following are reproductions of labels on, or

inside the product relating to laser product

safety.

Handling Compact discs

Playing a CD that is dirty, scratched

or warped can cause the sound to

skip and the unit to operate

incorrectly, resulting in worsened

sound quality. Take the following

precautions to prevent your CDs from

getting scratched or damaged.

Handling CDs

· Do not touch the recorded side of the CD (the

side opposite the label) when holding it.

· The reflective film on a CD-R or a CD-RW is

more fragile than that on an ordinary music CD,

and may peel off if scratched. Fingerprints on a

CD-R or CD-RW are also more likely to cause

skipping when the disc is played. For these

reasons, handle the disc very carefully. Detailed

handling instructions will appear on the CD-R or

CD-RW package: read this information carefully

before using the disc.

· Do not stick tape on either side of the CD.

Do Not Load CD Accessories

Do not use commercially available CD

accessories that can be loaded into the CD slot,

such as stabilizers, protective sheets, or CD

cleaning discs, since they can cause the unit to

malfunction.

Storing CDs

· Do not store CDs in areas exposed to direct

sunlight (such as a car seat or the dashboard)

or other hot places.

A CD-R or CD-RW is more susceptible than a

music CD to damage from high temperatures

and humidity, and in some cases, may

become unusable if left in the car for long

periods of time.

· Remove CDs from the unit when not listening

to them for a while, and put them back in their

cases. Do not pile up CDs that are removed

from their cases or prop them against

something.

Cleaning CDs

If a CD has gotten dirty, wipe it off gently using

a commercially available cleaning cloth or a soft

cotton cloth, starting from the center of the disc

and moving outward. Do not clean CDs with

conventional record cleaners, anti-static

formulas, or chemicals such as paint thinner or

benzene.

Do Not Use Special Shape CDs

· Be sure to use round shape CDs only for this

unit and do not use any special shape CDs.

Use of special shape CDs may cause the unit

to malfunction.

· Be sure to use CDs with disc mark

only for this unit.

Checking New CDs for Burrs

When playing a new CD for the first time, check

that there are not any burrs stuck to the

perimeter of the disc or in the central hole. CDs

with burrs stuck on them may not load properly

or may skip while playing. Remove burrs using

a ballpoint pen or a similar utensil.

Removing the CD

Only remove the CD from the machine in a

horizontal direction, holding it flat. You may

damage the surface of the CD if you try pulling

it down as it ejects.

Do Not Use CDs with Sticker on the

Labeled Side

Do not use the CD with the label sticker stuck

on it.

Using such a CD may cause the CD to be

deformed and the sticker to peel off, resulting

in malfunction of the unit.
