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 automotivegrade 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. · 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. 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 set the removed faceplate or the faceplate case in areas exposed to direct sunlight, excessive heat or humidity. Also avoid places with too much dust or the possibility of water splashing. · To prevent deterioration, do not touch the terminals of the unit or faceplate with your fingers. · 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. IMPORTANT INFORMATION You cannot connect the unit directly to the following CD automatic changers. For users who 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 cable. · KDC-C301 / KDC-C600 / KDC-C800 / KDCC601 / KDC-C401 Use the extension cable attached to the CD changer, and the optional CA-DS100 converter cable. · 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. --3-- Safety precautions English NOTE · 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. EJECT MENU Cleaning the Faceplate Terminals If the terminals on the unit or faceplate get dirty, wipe them with a dry, soft cloth. Cleaning the Tape Head After you have used the tape player many times over a long period, 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. Cleaning the Unit If the front panel gets dirty, turn off the power and wipe the panel with a dry silicon cloth or soft cloth. SRC PWR OFF / PTY DISC 2CAUTION Do not wipe the panel with a stiff cloth or a cloth dampened by volatile solvents such as paint thinner and alcohol. They can scratch the surface of the panel and/or cause the indicator letters to peel off. 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 pinch rollers, causing trouble. · Do not play a deformed cassette or one whose label is starting to come off, as it can cause the unit to malfunction. · Do not leave tapes in hot places, such as above the fascia panel (dashboard) 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 whilst. If you leave a tape in the unit too long, it may stick to the tape head and cause unit malfunction.
