Before Use

Precautions

# WARNINGS

Ñ To prevent injury or fire, take

the following precautions:

• To prevent a short circuit, never put or leave any metallic objects (such as coins or metal tools) inside the unit.

• Do not watch or fix your eyes on the unit’s display when you are driving for any extended period.

• If you experience problems during installation, consult your KENWOOD dealer.

Ñ Precautions on using this unit

• When you purchase optional accessories, check with your KENWOOD dealer to make sure that they work with your model and in your area.

• You can select language to display menus, audio file tags, etc. See User Interface Setup (P. 74).

• The Radio Data System or Radio Broadcast Data System feature won’t work where the service is not supported by any broadcasting station.

• The unit may not function properly if the connectors between the unit and front panel are dirty. Detach the front panel and clean the connector with a cotton swab gently, being careful not to damage the connector.

Ñ Protecting the monitor

• To protect the monitor from damage, do not operate the monitor using a ball point pen or similar tool with the sharp tip.

Ñ 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 it again with a clean soft dry cloth.

NOTE

• 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 erase screened print.

Ñ Lens fogging

When you turn on the car heater in cold weather, dew or condensation may form on the lens in the disc player of the unit. Called lens fogging, this condensation on the lens may not allow discs to play. In such a situation, remove the disc and wait for the condensation to evaporate. If the unit still does not operate normally after a while, consult your KENWOOD dealer.

Ñ Precautions on handling discs

• Do not touch the recording surface of the disc.

• Do not stick tape etc. on the disc, or use a disc with tape stuck on it.

• Do not use disc type accessories.

• Clean from the center of the disc and move outward.

• When removing discs from this unit, pull them out horizontally.

• If the disc center hole or outside rim has burrs, use the disc only after removing the burrs with a ballpoint pen etc.

• Discs that are not round cannot be used.

• 8-cm (3 inch) discs cannot be used.

• Discs with coloring on the recording surface or discs that are dirty cannot be used.

Before Use

• This unit can only play the CDs with

• This unit may not correctly play discs which do not have the mark.

• You cannot play a disc that has not been finalized. (For the finalization process see your writing software, and your recorder instruction manual.)

Ñ Acquiring GPS signal

The first time you turn on this unit, you must wait while the system acquires satellite signals for the first time. This process could take up to several minutes. Make sure your vehicle is outdoors in an open area away from tall buildings and trees for fastest acquisition.

After the system acquires satellites for the first time, it will acquire satellites quickly each time thereafter.

Ñ Caution for Smartphone Users

Simultaneously running multiple applications on your smartphone while screen sharing places heavy demand on the microprocessor of the phone, potentially affecting communication and performance.

For best results while pairing with your Kenwood receiver, please be sure to close any unused applications by performing the following steps:

Android operating system example:

• Turn off WiFi in phone settings menu.

• Close all open applications before connecting for in-car use. Hold the <Home> key and select <Close all> to close all open applications.

• Clear RAM Memory of the Android phone before connecting for in-car use. Hold the <Home> key and select <Task Manager> then select <RAM> then select <Clear memory> to clear current memory processes.

How to read this manual

• The screens and panels shown in this manual are examples used to provide clear explanations of the operations. For this reason, they may be different from the actual screens or panels used, or some display patterns may be different.

• Indication language: English indications are used for the purpose of explanation. You can select the indication language from the [SETUP] menu. See User Interface Setup (P.74).
