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 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.

2CAUTION

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

You cannot connect the unit directly to the

following CD automatic changers. For users

who want to use older changers with the

unit, follow the directions below according to

the type of changer you own:

· KDC-C200 / KDC-C300 / KDC-C400

Use the extension cable and the control box

attached to the CD changer, and the optional

CA-DS100 converter cable.

· KDC-C301 / KDC-C600 / KDC-C800 / KDC-

C601 / KDC-C401

Use the extension cable attached to the CD

changer, and the optional CA-DS100

converter cable.

· KDC-C100 / KDC-C302 / C205 / C705 /

non-Kenwood CD changers

Cannot be used with this model.

You can damage both your unit and

the CD changer if you connect them

incorrectly.

2CAUTION

Safety precautions

-- 4 --

English

· If you experience problems during

installation, consult your Kenwood dealer.

· If the unit fails to operate properly, press the

RESET button. When the faceplate is not

visible, slide the manual open switch (as

illustrated on p.6) for as many times as you

have preset to make the faceplate control

appear. The unit returns to factory settings

when the RESET button is pressed. If the

unit still fails to operate properly after the

RESET button has been pressed, contact

your local KENWOOD dealer for assistance.

· Press the reset button if the CD auto changer

is first controlled and operates incorrectly.

The original operating condition will return.

· Characters in the LCD may become difficult

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

NOTE

Mask key

If you have transmitted the Mask Key's signal

once to the unit in advance, you will have to

transmit it once again if the unit has been

removed from the battery. This function

helps prevent theft.

When using the unit for the first time:

In order to deactivate the demonstration

mode, be sure to press the transmit button

to transmit the Mask Key's signal.

If this procedure is not carried out, the

control panel of the unit will re-open in two

seconds even with your vehicle's ignition

turned off.

Do not loose the "Mask Key".

If power is disconnected from the unit,

correct operation can only be restored by the

"Mask Key's" signal.

The "Mask Key" will also be required for

service repair.

If you send products in for repair that include

a mask key, make sure to present the unit

together with the mask key.

Cleaning the Unit

If the front panel gets dirty, turn off the

power and wipe the panel with a dry silicon

cloth or soft cloth.

Do not wipe the panel with a stiff cloth or a

cloth dampened by volatile solvents such as

paint thinner and alcohol. They can scratch

the surface of the panel and/or cause the

indicator letters to peel off.

2CAUTION

NOTE

2CAUTION

Safety precautions

Cleaning the Tape Head

After you have used the tape player many

times over a long period, 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

above the fascia panel (dashboard) 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 whilst. If you leave a

tape in the unit too long, it may stick to the

tape head and cause unit malfunction.
