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
automotive-grade cables or other cables
with an area of 0.75mm2 (AWG18) or more
to prevent cable deterioration and damage
to the cable 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.
· 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.

NOTE
Safety precautions
Reset button
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 open
faceplate or place objects on it. Doing so
will cause damage or breakdown.
2CAUTION
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
About the disc changer to be
connected:
To connect a disc changer having the "O-N"
switch to this unit, set the "O-N" switch to
"N".
When you connect a model with no "O-N"
switch, the converter cord CA-DS100
available as an option may be required. For
details, consult your Kenwood dealer.
If a model with no "O-N" switch is
connected, some unavailable functions and
information that cannot be displayed are
generated, such as the DNPS, Magazine
random play, and CD Text display.
Note that none of the KDC-C100, KDC-C302,
C205, C705, and non-Kenwood CD changers
can be connected.
You can damage both your unit and
the CD changer if you connect them
incorrectly.
Do Not Load 8-cm (3-in.) CDs in the
CD slot
If you try to load an 8-cm CD with its adapter
into the unit, the adapter might separate
from the CD and damage the unit.

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.
· There is no image on the monitor at times
other than DVD mode.

Applying spray cleaner directly to the unit
may affect its mechanical parts. Wiping the
faceplate with a hard cloth or using a volatile

Cleaning the Disc Slot
As dust can accumulate in the Disc slot,
clean it occasionally. Your Discs can get

(Except for some areas)
The label is attached to the chassis/case and
says that the component uses laser beams
that have been classified as Class 1. It
means that the unit is utilizing laser beams
that are of a weaker class. There is no
danger of hazardous radiation outside the

Lens Fogging
Right after you turn on the car heater in cold
weather, dew or condensation may form on
the lens in the disc player of the unit. Called
lens fogging, discs may be impossible to
play. In such a situation, remove the disc and
wait for the condensation to evaporate. If the
unit still does not operate normally after a
whilst, consult your Kenwood dealer.
