To prevent injury and/or fire, take the
following precautions:
· Insert the unit all the way until it is fully
locked in place. Otherwise it may fly out of
place during collisions and other jolts.
· When extending the ignition, battery or
ground cables, make sure to use automotive-
grade cables or other cables with an area of
0.75mm2 (AWG18) or more to prevent cable
deterioration and damage to the cable
coating.
· To prevent short circuits, never put or leave
any metallic objects (e.g., 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.
· Do not touch the liquid crystal fluid if the LCD
is damaged or broken due to shock. The
liquid crystal fluid may be dangerous to your
health or even fatal.
If the liquid crystal fluid from the LCD
contacts your body or clothing, wash it off
with soap immediately.
2WARNING
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 set the removed faceplate or the
faceplate case in areas exposed to direct
sunlight, excessive heat or humidity. Also
avoid places with too much dust or the
possibility of water splashing.
· To prevent deterioration, do not touch the
terminals of the unit or faceplate with your
fingers.
· Do not subject the faceplate to excessive
shock, as it is a piece of precision equipment.
· 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 short circuits when replacing a
fuse, first disconnect the wiring harness.
· Do not place any object between the
faceplate and the unit.
· During installation, do not use any screws
except for the ones provided. The use of
improper screws might result in damage to
the main unit.

Safety precautions
Cleaning the CD Slot
As dust can accumulate in the CD slot, clean
it occasionally. Your CDs can get scratched if
you put them in a dusty CD slot.

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 whilst,
consult your Kenwood dealer.
Do Not Load 8-cm (3-in.) CDs in the
CD slot
If you try to load an 8-cm CD with its adapter
into the unit, the adapter might separate from

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
(i.e., the side opposite the label) when
holding it.
· Do not stick tape on either side of the CD.
Storing CDs
· Do not store CDs in areas exposed to direct
sunlight ­ such as a car seat or above the
fascia panel (dashboard) ­ or other hot
places.
· Remove CDs from the unit when not
listening to them for a whilst, and put them
back in their cases. Do not stack CDs that
have been removed from their cases or prop
them against something.
Cleaning CDs
If a CD has become dirty, wipe it off gently
using a commercially available cleaning cloth
or a soft cotton cloth, starting from the
centre 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.
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 whilst playing.
Remove burrs using a ballpoint pen or a
similar utensil.
Do Not Load CD Accessories in Slot
Do not use commercially available CD
accessories that can be loaded into the CD
slot, such as stabilisers, protective sheets, or
CD cleaning discs, since they can cause the
unit to malfunction.
Removing the CD
Only remove the CD from the machine in a
horizontal direction. You may damage the
surface of the CD if you try pulling it down as
it ejects.
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.
Do Not Use CDs with Sticker on the
Labelled 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.
