Factory fitted moulded mains plug

1.The mains plug contains a fuse. For replacement, use only a 13-Amp ASTA-approved (BS1362) fuse.

2.The fuse cover must be refitted when replacing the fuse in the moulded plug.

3.Do not cut off the mains plug from this equipment. If the plug fitted is not suitable for the power points in your home or the cable is too short to reach a power point, then obtain an appropriate safety approved extension lead or adapter, or consult your dealer.

If nonetheless the mains plug is cut off, remove the fuse and dispose of the plug immediately, to avoid a possible shock hazard by inadvertent connection to the mains supply.

IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Blue: Neutral

Brown: Live

Do not connect those leads to the earth terminal of a three-pin plug.

4 Special features

True home theater sound

Dolby Digital (AC-3)

The DOLBY DIGITAL (AC-3) mode lets you enjoy full digital surround from software processed in the Dolby Digital (AC-3) format. Dolby Digital (AC-3) provides up to 5.1 channels of independent digital audio for better sound quality and more powerful presence than conventional Dolby Surround.

Dolby Pro Logic & Dolby 3 Stereo

This surround system reproduces theater-like surround sound from video software marked .

The PRO LOGIC mode uses the built-in adaptive matrix circuit to steer the Left, Center, Right and Surround channel audio signals. The 3 STEREO mode will redirect the surround signal to the front left and right speakers when only the front and center speakers are used.

New DSP surround modes

The DSP (Digital Signal Processor) used for this AV CONTROL CENTER incorporates a variety of high quality adjustable sound fields, like "ARENA", "JAZZ CLUB", "STADIUM", "CATHEDRAL" and "THEATER", to add the “presence” associated with an arena, jazz club or stadium (etc.) to the original signal. It is compatible with almost any kind of program source.

Graphical Remote Control unit ”GRC”

The GRC unit incorporates a large-screen LCD which displays key icons and parameters. The LCD also shows information on the operating modes of the main unit.

To improve the operability, frequently used icons are located in the higher hierarchy in the LCD display and icons which are associated between each other are shown on the same screen.

The GRC unit is a multi-function remote control unit which can be programmed to control AV components from other manufacturers than KENWOOD.

RDS (Radio Data System) tuner

This AV CONTROL CENTER is equipped with a RDS tuner that provides several convenient tuning functions: AUTO MEMORY, to automatically preset up to 40 RDS stations broadcasting different programs; station name display, to show you the name of the current broadcast station; and PTY search to let you tune stations by program type.

ONE TOUCH OPERATION

Simply pressing the play key of the CD player or cassettedeck turns the system on and starts playback.

How to use this manual
