To prevent injury and/or fire, take the
following precautions:
• Insert the unit all the way until it is fully
locked in place. Otherwise it may fly out of
place during collisions and other jolts.
• When extending the ignition, battery or
ground cables, make sure to use automotivegrade cables or other cables with an area of
0.75mm
2
(AWG18) or more to prevent cable
deterioration and damage to the cable
coating.

• 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 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 short circuits when replacing a
fuse, first disconnect the wiring harness.
• Do not place any object between the
faceplate and the unit.
• During installation, do not use any screws
except for the ones provided. The use of
improper screws might result in damage to
the main unit.
• Do not apply excessive force to the moving
faceplate. Doing so will cause damage or
malfunction.
• Do not apply excessive force to the open
faceplate or place objects on it. Doing so will
cause damage or breakdown.

Cleaning the Faceplate Terminals
If the terminals on the unit or faceplate get
dirty, wipe them with a dry, soft cloth.
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 neutral detergent off.
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 erases characters.
Cleaning the Tape Head
After you have used the tape player many
times over a long period, magnetic powder
from the tapes and dust accumulates on the
tape head, causing noise and a deterioration
in sound quality. Clean the tape head using a
cleaning tape or cleaning kit designed for use
in car audio systems.
2CAUTION
Handling Cassette Tapes
• Do not play a cassette whose tape has gone
slack. In such a case, wind it tight using a
pencil or the like in one of the spools.
Playing slack cassette tapes can result in the
tape tangling around the capstan and/or
pinch rollers, causing trouble.
• Do not play a deformed cassette or one
whose label is starting to come off, as it can
cause the unit to malfunction.
• Do not leave tapes in hot places, such as
above the fascia panel (dashboard) and other
spots exposed to direct sunlight, or near
heater outlets. They can deform the
cassette.
• Avoid using extremely long cassette tapes,
such as 100-minute-long tapes. Such tapes
are very thin, and can tangle easily around
the pinch rollers or other parts inside the
unit, causing unit failure.
• Remove a cassette tape from the unit when
not listening to it for a whilst. If you leave a
tape in the unit too long, it may stick to the
tape head and cause unit malfunction.
Switching Modes:
Each time you press the SRC button, the mode switches as
follows:
Switching Modes
You can help prevent theft of the unit by reversing the
faceplate so that the control panel cannot be seen, hiding the
unit, and shutting off the audio.
Power ON/OFF:
When you turn your vehicle’s ignition on, the unit’s power will
also turn on, with the faceplate reversing to show the control
panel.
When you turn your vehicle's ignition off, the faceplate will
reverse to hide the control panel after a period of time which
you have set in the "Time setting for removing the faceplate" in
the menu. The unit's power will turn off.
Alternatively, you can remove the faceplate during that period.
For details, refer to the "Removing the faceplate" (page 10).
• After installation of your Mask unit, be sure to transmit the
Mask Key's signal to deactivate the demonstration mode.
If this procedure is not carried out, the control panel of the unit
will re-open in two seconds even with your vehicle's ignition
turned off.
• When the moving faceplate is hit by an object, it will stop and
return to its original state. Remove the object and repeat the
action.
Using the Unit in Vehicles with Covered Consoles
• Make sure the console is uncovered whilst the faceplate is
reversed.
• Do not exert any excess force on the movable parts of the unit,
including the faceplate, as it can cause failure in the unit’s
mechanism.
