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.

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 Language setup (P.68) in the Instruction Manual.

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

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.

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.

Precautions on battery

• Keep battery out of reach of children and in original package until ready to use. Dispose of used batteries promptly. If swallowed contact physician immediately.

• Do not leave the battery near fire or under direct sunlight. A fire, explosion or excessive heat generation may result.

• Do not set the remote control in hot places such as on the dashboard.

• Danger of explosion if Lithium battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type.

Protecting the monitor

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

• 8-cm (3 inch) discs cannot be used.

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

Quick Start Guide

Acquiring GPS signals

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.

About the front panel

When removing the product from the box or installing it, the front panel may be positioned at the angle shown in (Fig. 1). This is due to the characteristics of mechanism the product is equipped with.

When the product is first powered on works properly, the front panel will automatically move into the position (initial setting angle) shown in (Fig. 2).

(Fig. 1)

How To Reset Your Unit

If the unit or the connected unit fails to operate properly, reset the unit.

Press the <Reset> button.

The unit returns to factory settings.

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.

• 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.

Safety Precautions and Important Information

Read this information carefully before starting to operate the Kenwood Car Navigation System and follow the instructions in this manual. Neither Kenwood nor Garmin shall be liable for problems or accidents resulting from failure to observe the instructions in this manual.

2WARNINGS

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.

• Mounting and wiring this product requires skills and experience. The mounting and wiring should be done by professionals.

Failure to avoid the following potentially hazardous situations could result in an accident or collision resulting in death or serious injury.

When navigating, carefully compare information displayed on the navigation system to all available navigation sources, including information from street signs, visual sightings, and maps. For safety, always resolve any discrepancies or questions before continuing navigation.

Always operate the vehicle in a safe manner. Do not become distracted by the navigation

system while driving, and always be fully aware of all driving conditions. Minimize the amount of time spent viewing the screen of the navigation system while driving, and use voice prompts when possible.

Do not enter destinations, change settings, or access any functions requiring prolonged use of the navigation system controls while driving. Stop your vehicle in a safe and legal manner before attempting such operations.

Keep the system volume at a low enough level to be able to hear outside noises while driving. If you can no longer hear outside noises, you may be unable to react adequately to the traffic situation. This may cause accidents.

The navigation system will not display the correct current position of the vehicle the first time it is used after purchase, or if the vehicle battery is disconnected. GPS satellite signals will soon be received, however, and the correct position will be displayed.

Be careful of the ambient temperature. Using the navigation system at extreme temperatures can lead to malfunction or damage. Also note that the unit can be damaged by strong vibration, by metal objects, or by water getting inside the unit.

2CAUTIONS

Failure to avoid the following potentially hazardous situations may result in injury or property damage.

The navigation system is designed to provide you with route suggestions. It does not reflect road closures or road conditions, weather conditions, or other factors that may affect safety or timing while driving.

Use the navigation system only as a navigational aid. Do not attempt to use the navigation system for any purpose requiring precise measurement of direction, distance, location, or topography.

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the United States government, which is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The government system is subject to changes that could affect the accuracy and performance of all GPS equipment, including the navigation system. Although the navigation system is a precision navigation device, any navigation device can be misused or misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Vehicle Battery Preservation

This navigation system can be used when the ignition key is turned to ON or ACC. To preserve the battery, however, it should be used with the engine running whenever possible. Using the navigation system for a long time with the engine switched off can cause the battery to run down.
