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.

· 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 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.

2CAUTION

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".

To connect a disc changer having no "O-N"

switch to this unit, the converter cord CA-

DS100 and/or switching adapter KCA-S210A

are required as options.

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.

· 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.

· Characters in the LCD may become difficult

to read in temperatures below 41 °F (5 °C).

· 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.

· The functions that can be used and the

information that can be displayed will differ

depending on the external disc players being

connected.

NOTE

Cleaning the Faceplate Terminals

If the terminals on the unit or faceplate get

dirty, wipe them with a dry, soft cloth.

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

faceplate with a hard cloth or using a volatile

liquid such as thinner or alcohol may scratch

the surface or erases characters.

2CAUTION

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.

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.
