2 WARNING
To prevent injury or fire, take the following
precautions:
· When extending the ignition, battery, or ground
wires, make sure to use automotive-grade wires
or other wires with a 5 mm² (AWG 10) 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.
· Do not touch the unit during use because the
surface of the unit becomes hot and may cause
burns if touched.

following precautions:
· Be sure the unit is connected to a 12V DC power
supply with a negative ground connection.
