Safety precautions

· Do not apply excessive force to the open

faceplate or place objects on it. Doing so will

cause damage or breakdown.

· Do not use your own screws. Use only the screws

provided. If you use the wrong screws, you could

damage the unit.

Attach the panel while you are on the

vehicle

The panel lock arm appears when the panel is

removed. Therefore, the panel must be attached

while the electrical system of the car is operating.

Do Not Load 3-in. CDs in the CD slot

If you try to load a 3 in. CD with its adapter into the

unit, the adapter might separate from the CD and

connected to this unit

Kenwood disc changers/ CD players released in

1998 or later can be connected to this unit.

Lens Fogging

When 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, this

condesnation on the lens may not allow CDs to
