To prevent injury or fire, take the following precautions:
• Insert the unit all the way in until it is fully locked in place. Otherwise it may fall out of place when jolted.
• When extending the ignition, battery, or ground wires, make sure to use automotive­grade wires or other wires with a 0.75mm
2
(AWG18) or more to prevent wire deterioration and damage to the wire coating.
• To prevent a short circuit, never put or leave any metallic objects (such as 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.
• Make sure not to get your fingers caught between the faceplate and the unit.
• Be careful not to drop the unit or subject it to strong shock.
The unit may break or crack because it contains glass parts.
• 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.
2WARNING
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 set the removed faceplate or the faceplate case in areas exposed to direct sunlight, excessive heat, or humidity. Also avoid places with too much dust or the possibility of water splashing.
• To prevent deterioration, do not touch the terminals of the unit or faceplate with your fingers.
• 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 a short circuit when replacing a fuse, first disconnect the wiring harness.
• Do not place any object between the faceplate and the unit.
• Do not use your own screws. Use only the screws provided. If you use the wrong screws, you could damage the unit.
2CAUTION
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
You cannot connect the unit directly to the following CD automatic changers. If you want to use older changers with the unit, follow the directions below according to the type of changer you own:
• KDC-C200 / KDC-C300 / KDC-C400
Use the extension cable and the control box attached to the CD changer, and the optional CA-DS100 converter cord.
• KDC-C301 / KDC-C600 / KDC-C800 / KDC­C601 / KDC-C401
Use the extension cable attached to the CD changer, and the optional CA-DS100 converter cord.

English
Lens Fogging
In cold climates, there may be a period after you turn on your vehicle's heater when the lens that guides the laser beam used in your CD/MD player fogs up. If this happens, you cannot play mini discs. Take out discs and the fogging will disappear. If it does not return to normal after several hours, contact your Kenwood dealer.
Cleaning the Unit
If the front panel gets dirty, turn off the power and wipe the panel with a dry silicon cloth or soft cloth.
Do not wipe the panel with a hard cloth or a cloth dampened by volatile solvents such as paint thinner and alcohol. They can scratch the surface of the panel and/or cause the indicator letters to peel off.
2CAUTION
• If you experience problems during installation, consult your Kenwood dealer.
• If the unit does not seem to be working right, try pressing the reset button first. If that does not solve the problem, consult your Kenwood dealer.
• Characters in the LCD may become difficult to read in temperatures below 41 ˚F (5 ˚C).
• The illustrations of the display and the panel appearing in this manual are examples used to explain more clearly how the controls are used. Therefore, what appears on the display in the illustrations may differ from what appears on the display on the actual equipment, and some of the illustrations on the display may represent something impossible in actual operation.
• The functions that can be used and the information that can be displayed will differ depending on the external disc players being connected.

Handling Mini discs
• The MD shutter is designed so that it cannot be opened. If forced open, the cartridge will be damaged and use of the MD will no longer be possible. If the shutter has been opened due to some cause, be careful not to touch the recording portion with a finger. Doing so will cause the sound to skip.
• Do not use an MD that has a peeling label. Use of an MD that has a loose or peeling label may cause problems, such as the label coming off inside the player and the resultant inability to eject the MD.
• Wipe away dirt or dust from the cartridge surface with a dry cloth before use. Using an oil-soiled cartridge in particular may result in the disc not loading or being unable to eject it. (At time of cleaning, be careful not to open the shutter.)
• Do not leave the MD in the unit for a prolonged period. The ejected MD should be placed in an MD case for storage.
• Do not leave the MD in a place exposed to direct sunlight (such as on a dashboard) or in other places that attain high temperatures. The MD cartridge will become misshapen and will no longer be usable.
• MDs designed for use with data cannot be used. Please use MDs designed for music.
• Do not use lens cleaners. Doing so will lead to breakdown.

Handling Compact discs

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 (the side opposite the label) when holding it.
• Do not stick tape on either side of the CD.
• The reflective film on a CD-R or a CD-RW is more fragile than that on an ordinary music CD, and may peel off if scratched. Fingerprints on a CD-R or CD-RW are also more likely to cause skipping when the disc is played. For these reasons, handle the disc very carefully.
Detailed handling instructions will appear on the CD-R or CD-RW package: read this information carefully before using the disc.
Storing CDs
• Do not store CDs in areas exposed to direct sunlight (such as a car seat or the dashboard) or other hot places. A CD-R or CD-RW is more susceptible than a music CD to damage from high temperatures and humidity, and in some cases, may become unusable if left in the car for long periods of time.
• Remove CDs from the unit when not listening to them for a while, and put them
back in their cases. Do not pile up CDs that are removed from their cases or prop them against something.
Cleaning CDs
If a CD has gotten dirty, wipe it off gently using a commercially available cleaning cloth or a soft cotton cloth, starting from the center 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.
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 while playing. Remove burrs using a ballpoint pen or a similar utensil.
Do Not Load CD Accessories
Do not use commercially available CD accessories that can be loaded into the CD slot, such as stabilizers, protective sheets, or CD cleaning discs, since they can cause the unit to malfunction.
Removing the CD
Only remove the CD from the machine in a horizontal direction, holding it flat. You may damage the surface of the CD if you try pulling it down as it ejects.
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 use any CD which does not bear one of the following marks:
• CD-Rs and CD-RWs which have not undergone finalization processing cannot be played. (For more information on finalization processing, refer to the manual for your CD­R/CD-RW writing software or CD-R/CD-RW recorder.) Additionally, depending on the recording status, it may prove impossible to play certain CDs recorded on CD-R or CD­RW.
Do Not Use CDs with Sticker on the Labeled Side
Do not use the CD with the label sticker stuck on it. Using such a CD may cause the CD to be deformed and the sticker to peel off, resulting in malfunction of the unit.
