Cleaning the Faceplate Terminals
If the terminals on the unit or faceplate get dirty, wipe them with a dry, soft cloth.
Cleaning the CD Slot
As dust can accumulate in the CD slot, clean it occasionally. Your CDs can get scratched if you put them in a dusty CD slot.
Lens Fogging
Right after you turn on the car heater in cold weather, dew or condensation may form on the lens in the CD player of the unit. Called lens fogging, CDs may be impossible 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 whilst, consult your Kenwood dealer.
The marking of products using lasers (Except for some areas)
The label is attached to the chassis/case and says that the component uses laser beams that have been classified as Class 1. It means that the unit is utilizing laser beams that are of a weaker class. There is no danger of hazardous radiation outside the unit.
CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT

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 (i.e., the side opposite the label) when holding it.
Do not stick tape on either side of the CD.
Storing CDs
Do not store CDs in areas exposed to direct sunlight – such as a car seat or above the fascia panel (dashboard) – or other hot places.
Remove CDs from the unit when not listening to them for a whilst, and put them back in their cases. Do not stack CDs that have been removed from their cases or prop them against something.
Cleaning CDs
If a CD has become dirty, wipe it off gently using a commercially available cleaning cloth or a soft cotton cloth, starting from the centre 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 whilst playing. Remove burrs using a ballpoint pen or a similar utensil.
Do Not Load CD Accessories in Slot
Do not use commercially available CD accessories that can be loaded into the CD
slot, such as stabilisers, 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. You may damage the surface of the CD if you try pulling it down as it ejects.
Do Not Load 8-cm (3-in.) CDs in the CD slot
If you try to load an 8-cm CD with its adapter into the unit, the adapter might separate from the CD and damage the unit.
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.
Be sure to use CDs with disc mark only for this unit.

RDS features (See page 7)

RDS (Radio Data System)

RDS is a digital information system that lets you receive signals besides those of regular radio programmes, such as network information being transmitted from radio stations. When listening to an RDS station (ie, a station with RDS capability), the programme service name of the station is displayed along with the frequency, advising you quickly which station is being received. RDS (Radio Data System) stations also transmit frequency data for the same station. When you are making long trips, this function automatically switches to the particular frequency with the best reception for the particular network of stations that you want to listen to. The data is automatically stored, allowing you to switch quickly to another RDS stations, broadcasting the same programme, that has better reception. These include stations stored in the station preset memory that you often listen to.

EON (Enhanced Other Network)

Stations that offer EON also transmit information about other RDS stations that have traffic information. When you are tuned to a station that is not transmitting traffic information, but another RDS station starts transmitting a traffic bulletin, the tuner automatically switches to the other station for the duration of the bulletin.

Alarm

When an emergency transmission (announcing disasters, etc.) is sent, all current functions are interrupted to allow the warning to be received.

AF (Alternative Frequency) Function

When poor reception is experienced, automatically switch to another frequency broadcasting the same programme in the same RDS network with better reception. The indicator lights up when the AF function is turned on.
Turning AF Function On/Off:
Hold down the MENU button for one second or more. "MENU" is displayed and the menu mode is turned on.
Press the ¢ button repeatedly until the AF function appears in the display. Press the 4 button to search in the other direction. The function setting is indicated by "AF ON" or "AF OFF" in the display, indicating that the AF function is on or off, respectively.
Switching settings
Press either the AM button or FM button. The display and setting will change.
Press the MENU button to end the menu mode.
Displaying Frequencies:
When the Switching Clock display function (P.32) is OFF:
Press the DISP button.
When the Switching Clock display function (P.32) is ON: Hold down the DISP button for one second or more.
The frequency for the RDS station will be displayed for five seconds instead of the station name.
When no other stations with stronger reception are available for the same programme in the RDS network, you may hear the incoming broadcast in bits and snatches. Turn off the AF function in such a case.

Installation Procedure

1. To prevent short circuits, remove the key from the ignition and disconnect the - terminal of the battery.
2. Make the proper input and output cable connections for each unit.
3. Connect the cable on the wiring harness.
4. Take Connector B on the wiring harness and connect it to the speaker connector in your vehicle.
5. Take Connector A on the wiring harness and connect it to the external power connector on your vehicle.
6. Connect the wiring harness connector to the unit.
7. Install the unit in your car.
8. Reconnect the - terminal of the battery.
9. Press the reset button.
If your car is not prepared for this special connection-system, consult your KENWOOD dealer.
Only use antenna conversion adapters (ISO-JASO) when the antenna cord has an ISO plug.
Make sure that all cable connections are securely made by inserting jacks until they lock completely.
If your vehicle's ignition does not have an ACC position, or if the ignition cable is connected to a power source with constant voltage such as a battery cable, the power will not be linked with the ignition (i.e., it will not turn on and off along with the ignition). If you want to link the unit's power with the ignition, connect the ignition cable to a power source that can be turned on and off with the ignition key.
If the fuse blows, first make sure that the cables have not caused a short circuit, then replace the old fuse with one with the same rating.
Do not let unconnected cables or terminals touch metal on the car or anything else conducting electricity. To prevent short circuits, also do not remove the caps on the ends of the unconnected cables or the terminals.
Connect the speaker cables correctly to the terminals to which they correspond. The unit may receive damage or fail to work if you share the - cables and/or ground them to any metal part in the car.
After the unit is installed, check whether the brake lamps, indicators, wipers, etc. on the car are working properly.
Insulate unconnected cables with vinyl tape or other similar material.
Some disc changers need conversion cables for connection. See the section on "Safety Precautions" for details.
If the console has a lid, make sure to install the unit so that the faceplate does not hit the lid when closing and opening.
Mount the unit so that the mounting angle is 30° or less.
