WARNING
To prevent injury and/or fire, take the following
precautions:
English
Tape player operations with the buttons
• 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 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.
• 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.
CAUTION
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.

component uses laser beams that have been classified as Class 1. It
means that the unit is utilizing laser beams that are of a weaker class.
There is no danger of hazardous radiation outside the unit.
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.

Handling Compact Discs
Cleaning CDs
Removing the CD
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.
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.
English
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.

CAUTION
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 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 the CD and damage the unit.
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.

• 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.
• If you will not be using the unit for a long
period of time remove the CDs from the unit
and put them back in their cases. Do not
stack CDs that have been removed from
their cases or prop them against something.
Burrs
Do Not Use Non-Standard CD’s

electronic noise to appear on the screen, or
otherwise prevent your equipment from
functioning properly.
• Be sure to use CDs with disc marks
only for this unit.

RDS Function
English
RDS (Radio Data System)
SYSTEM
RDS is a digital information system that lets you receive signals besides those
of regular radio programmes, such as network information being transmitted
from radio stations.
When listening to an RDS station (ie, a station with RDS capability), the
programme service name of the station is displayed along with the frequency,
advising you quickly which station is being received.
RDS (Radio Data System) stations also transmit frequency data for the same
station. When you are making long trips, this function automatically switches
to the particular frequency with the best reception for the particular network of
stations that you want to listen to. The data is automatically stored, allowing
you to switch quickly to another RDS stations, broadcasting the same
programme, that has better reception. These include stations stored in the
station preset memory that you often listen to.

Installation Procedure
English
External view
......... Number of items
The use of any accessories except for those provided might result in
damage to the unit. Make sure only to use the accessories shipped
with the unit, as shown above.
• If your car's ignition does not come with an ACC position,
connect the ignition cables to a power source that can be
turned on and off with the ignition key. If you connect the
ignition cable to a power source that receives a constant
voltage supply, as with battery cables, the battery may die.
• If the fuse blows, first make sure that the cables have not
caused a short circuit, then replace the old fuse with one with
the same rating.
• Do not let unconnected cables or terminals touch metal on the
car or anything else conducting electricity. To prevent short
circuits do not remove the caps from unused terminals or from
the ends of the unconnected cables.
• After the unit is installed, check whether the brake lamps,
blinkers, wipers, etc. on the car are working properly.
• Insulate unconnected wires with vinyl tape or other similar
material.
• Thoroughly wipe away oil and other dirt from the installation
surface.
Please avoid installation on uneven surfaces.
• Mount the unit so that the mounting angle is 30° or less.
