Safety precautions

2WARNING
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 (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.
2
2CAUTION
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 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.
• 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.
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.
• KDC-C100 / KDC-C302 / C205 / C705 / non-Kenwood CD changers
Cannot be used with this model.
2CAUTION
You can damage both your unit and the CD changer if you connect them incorrectly.
FCC WARNING
This equipment may generate or use radio frequency energy. Changes or modifications to this equipment may cause harmful interference unless the modifications are expressly approved in the instruction manual. The user could lose the authority to operate this equipment if an unauthorized change or modification is made.

Safety precautions
NOTE
• If you experience problems during installation, consult your Kenwood dealer.
English
• If the unit fails to operate properly, press the RESET button. When the faceplate controls are not visible, press the left part at the upper side of the faceplate (as illustrated on p.11) for as many times as you have preset to make the faceplate controls appear. The unit returns to factory settings when the RESET button is pressed. If the unit still fails to operate properly after the RESET button has been pressed, contact your local KENWOOD dealer for assistance.
• Press the reset button if the disc auto changer is first controlled and operates incorrectly. The original operating condition will return.

• 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.
Cleaning the Tape Head
After you have listened to many cassettes over a long period of time, 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.
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

Cleaning the Unit
OFF
• Do not leave tapes in hot places, such as on dashboards 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 while. If you leave a tape in the unit too long, it may stick to the tape head and cause unit malfunction.

Removing the Faceplate

The faceplate can be detached from the unit, helping to deter theft.
English
Removing the faceplate:
1
Choose the way from among the following and open the faceplate. Turn the ignition off, press the SRC button for at least one second, or press the left part at the upper side of the faceplate (as illustrated on p.11) for as many times as you have preset in the "Manual Open Button Setting" (OPEN SW #) in the menu when the control panel has been hidden.
2
Set the faceplate's angle adjustment switch to "0" to set the faceplate angle to the vertical. For details, refer to "Faceplate Angle Adjustment" (page 13).
NOTE
If the faceplate's angle adjustment switch is not set to "0" when mounting the faceplate on the faceplate bracket, it may be difficult to mount the faceplate or the faceplate may not be securely attached and could fall off. Set the angle adjustment switch to "0" before removing the faceplate.
3
Slide the faceplate lock switch to the left during the period which you have set in the "Time setting for removing the faceplate" in the menu.
When removing the faceplate, pull it out only when it is fully open. The detachment of the faceplate while it is moving might result in damage to the unit.
Do not apply excessive force to the faceplate bracket without attaching the faceplate. Doing so will cause the faceplate bracket to be deformed.
Do not touch the connector on the faceplate bracket after removing the faceplate. Touching the connector may cause damage to the unit.
Do not touch two metal parts on both sides of the faceplate bracket. Touching those parts may injure you.
NOTE
Sliding the faceplate lock switch cause the units power to turn off. If you want to operate the unit again, remove the faceplate from the faceplate bracket completely and then reattach it.
The faceplate is a precision piece of equipment and can be damaged by shocks or jolts. For that reason, keep the faceplate in its special storage case while detached.
Do not expose the faceplate or its storage case to direct sunlight or excessive heat or humidity. Also avoid places with too much dust or the possibility of water splashing.
Reattaching the Faceplate:
1
Hold the faceplate so that the control panel faces the front toward you and set the left side of the faceplate in the faceplate bracket.
2CAUTION
Do not set the right side of the faceplate in the faceplate bracket first, when reattaching the faceplate. Doing so may cause the connector on the faceplate bracket to malfunction.
2
Press the right side of the faceplate until it locks.
4
Holding the center part of the faceplate, pull it out. The faceplate bracket will automatically close.
2CAUTION
NOTE
If the faceplate bracket's angle was not set to the vertical when
