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
0.75mm
2
(AWG18) or more to prevent cable
deterioration and damage to the cable coat-
ing.
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 con-
tains glass parts.
Do not touch the liquid crystal fluid if the LCD
is damaged or broken due to shock. The liq-
uid crystal fluid may be dangerous to your
health or even fatal.
If the liquid crystal fluid from the LCD con-
tacts your body or clothing, wash it off with
soap immediately.

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

Do not set the removed faceplate or the face-
plate case in areas exposed to direct sunlight,
excessive heat or humidity. Also avoid places
