Safety precautions
To prevent injury and/or fire, take the
following precautions:
• When extending the battery, or ground wires,
make sure to use automotive-grade wires or
other wires with a 0.75mm2 (AWG18) or more
to prevent wire deterioration and damage to
the wire coating.
• 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.
• To prevent short circuits, never put or leave any
metallic objects (e.g., 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.
• Be careful not to drop the unit or subject it to
strong shock.
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.
• 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.
• 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.
• When drilling a hole in the car to fix the
brackets, make sure not to damage the fuel
tank, brake tube, wiring harnesses, etc. on the
other side.
• 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 on the control unit
first. If that does not solve the problem, consult
your Kenwood dealer.
