Precautions

#WARNING

Ñ To prevent injury or re, 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 U ser Interfa ce Setup (P.74) in the Instruction Manual.

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

• The unit may not func tion 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 Precautions on battery

• Put the remote control in a place where it will not move during braking or other operations. A dangerous situation could result, if the remote control falls down and gets wedged under the pedals while driving.

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

• Do not recharge, short, break up or heat the battery or place it in an open ﬁre. Such actions may cause the battery to leak ﬂuid. If spilled ﬂuid comes in contact with your eyes or on clothing, immediately rinse with water

Before use

and consult a physician.

• Place the battery out of reach of children. In the unlikely event that a child swallows the battery, immediately consult a physician.

Ñ 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.

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 t ype 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 sur face or discs that are dirty cannot be used.

• 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 soft ware, 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 thereaf ter.

Ñ About the front panel

DNX8 DNX7

When removing the produc t 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) (Fig. 2)

Ñ Cleaning the Unit

If the front panel of this unit is stained, wipe it with a dry sof t cloth such as a silicon cloth. If the front panel is stained badly, wipe the stain oﬀ with a cloth moistened with neutral cleaner, then wipe it again with a clean soft dry cloth.

! CAUTION

• Applying spray cleaner directly to the unit may aﬀect its mechanical parts. Wiping the front panel with a hard cloth or using a volatile liquid such as thinner or alcohol may scratch the sur face or erase screened print.

Before use

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 obser ve the instructions in this manual.

#WARNING

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

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 distrac ted 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 correc t position will be displayed. Be careful of the ambient temperature. Using the navigation system at ex treme 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.

#CAUTION

Failure to avoid the following potentially hazardous situations may result in injury or propert y 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 accurac y 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

Ñ 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.

Ñ Map Data Information

One of the goals of Garmin is to provide customers with the most complete and accurate cartography that is available to us at a reasonable cost. We use a combination of governmental and private data sources, which we identify in product literature and copyright messages displayed to the consumer. Virtually all data sources contain some inaccurate or incomplete data. In some countries, complete and accurate map information is either not available or is prohibitively expensive.
