The control screens shown in this manual are for explanation purposes only. The actual screens and design differ.

To prevent injury and/or fire, take the following precautions:

•Ensure that the unit is securely installed. Otherwise it may fly out of place during collisions and other jolts.

•When extending the ignition or ground cables, make sure to use automotive-grade cables or other cables with an area of 0.75mm

(AWG18) or more to prevent wire

deterioration and damage to the wire coating.

•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

•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.

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 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 monitor unit 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 use any screws except for the ones provided. The use of improper screws might result in damage to the main unit.

•You cannot view video pictures whilst the vehicle is moving. To enjoy video pictures, find a safe place to park and engage the parking brake.

•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.
