Before Use
Safety Precautions
To prevent injury and/or fire, take the following
precautions:
· Ensure that the unit is securely installed. Otherwise it
may fly out of place during collisions and other jolts.
· When extending the ignition, battery or ground wires,
make sure to use automotive-grade wires or other cables
with an area of 0.75mm2 (AWG18) or more to prevent
wire deterioration and damage to the wire 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.
· 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.
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 use any screws except for the ones provided. The
use of improper screws might result in damage to the
main unit.
· You cannot view video pictures whilst the vehicle is
moving. To enjoy TV/video pictures, find a safe place to
park and engage the parking brake.
· 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

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.
Screen brightness during low temperatures
When the temperature of the unit falls such as during
winter, the liquid crystal panel's screen will become
darker than usual. Normal brightness will return after
