hand. Otherwise, an electric shock may result.
• In case a thunder begins to rumble, do not touch
the AC adapter or the power plug.
Otherwise, an electric shock may result.
• Clean the power plug and AC adapter plug
periodically. If dirt is attached on these plugs,
deterioration of insulation due to moisture may
result in a fire or electric shock. To clean the power
plug, unplug it from the power outlet and wipe
dirty with a dry cloth.
• In case of an abnormality with this unit, unplug
the AC adapter. In case of water or a foreign object
penetrates inside this unit or it produces smoke,
abnormal odour or noise, immediately switch
off this unit and unplug the AC adapter from the
power outlet.
Continuing the use of the equipment may result in
a fire or electric shock. After the smoke, abnormal
odour or noise disappears, consult your dealer or a
Kenwood service agent for servicing.
• If you drop the AC adapter or this unit, unplug the
AC adapter. If equipment is dropped or the cover
or case is damaged, switch off this unit, unplug
the AC adapter from the power outlet. Continuing
the use of the equipment may result in a fire or
electric shock.
• While using the AC adapter, it may become
hot. Do not cover or wrap the AC adapter with
cloth or leave it in the carry case while using it.
Doing so will result in fire due to excessive heat
accumulating in the adapter.
• Do not open the case of or modify the AC adapter
or this unit. These incorporate high voltage parts
inside and opening or modifying them may result
in a fire or electric shock.
Notes on using through headphones:
• Do not start listening with too high a volume.
Otherwise, sudden output of a highvolume sound
may cause hearing failure, etc.
• Do not listen to the audio with an extremely high
volume for long hours. Otherwise, your hearing
ability may be damaged.
• Read the instruction manual of your headphones
for details.
Handling
• Do not apply an excessive force to the display
part. Otherwise, it may be damaged.
• Avoid storing this unit in a bag together with a
hard object. Otherwise, this unit may be damaged
when the bag is pushed.
• Do not expose this unit to an insecticide or other
volatile substance or bring this unit in extended
contact with a rubber or vinyl material. Otherwise,
discoloration or peeling of the surface finish may
result.
• Do not put this unit in a pocket of trousers.
Otherwise, it may be damaged due to a strong
impact when you sit down, etc.
• Protect this unit against sweat and moisture.
Do not use this unit by putting it in a breast
pocket for long hours in the summer or during
exercise. Otherwise, penetration of moisture or
sweat may cause malfunction or failure.
Operating conditions
• Operational temperature range : -20°C – 70°C
(without condensation)
• Battery chargeable temperature range : 0°C – 45°C
Notes on navigation system
• The unit is designed to provide you with route
suggestions. It does not reflect road closures
or road conditions, traffic congestion, weather
conditions, or other factors that may affect safety
or timing while driving.
• Use the unit only as a navigational aid. Do not
attempt to use the unit for any purpose requiring
precise measurement of direction, distance,
location, or topography.
• GPS may not operated properly under some
circumstances such as moving through the tunnel,
moving between high-rise buildings, and high-rise
trees.
Notes on the built-in battery
• For the replacement of the built-in battery, contact
your dealer.
• The battery built into this unit discharges
spontaneously even when this unit is not used.
This means that the built-in battery may be
exhausted completely when this unit is left
unused for a long period. If this happens, recharge
the battery before using this unit.
• The battery recharging time is variable depending
on the condition of the battery and ambient
temperature.
• The available playback time reduces when this
unit is used under low temperatures.
• The built-in battery can be recharged for about
500 times. (This is a reference value and is not
guaranteed.)
• The built-in battery is a consumable part, and
the available playback time reduces gradually
after repeated use. If the available playback
time becomes very short even after the battery
has been recharged fully, the battery may be
degraded; replace it with new one.
• Kenwood will not assume any liabilities for the
alteration or loss of data caused due to complete
discharging of the built-in battery.
• The built-in battery is a lithium ion battery.
It is free from the memory effect of Ni-Cd and
nickel-hydrogen batteries, with which the capacity
decreases if the battery is charged or discharged
incompletely for several times.
The built-in battery therefore accepts additional
charging before it has exhausted completely.
• Do not put, store or leave your product in or near
a heat source, in a high temperature location, in
strong direct sunlight in a microwave oven or in
a pressurized container, and do not expose it to
temperatures over 60°C.
• Failure to follow these guidelines may cause the
Lithium-Ion battery to leak acid, become hot,
explode or ignite and cause injury and/or damage.
• Do not pierce, open or disassemble the battery.
• If the battery leaks and you come into contact
with the leaked fluids, rinse thoroughly with water
and seek medical attention immediately.
• Dispose of the battery according to the law of the
country to dispose of.
2 Caution on installation
• Make sure to ground the unit to a negative 12V
DC power supply.
• 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 use your own screws. Use only the screws
provided. If you use the wrong screws, you could
damage the unit.
• If the fuse blows, first make sure the wires aren’t
touching to cause a short circuit, then replace the
old fuse with one with the same rating.
• Do not press hard on the panel surface when
installing the unit to the vehicle. Otherwise scars,
damage, or failure may result.
• Reception may drop if there are metal objects near
the Bluetooth antenna.
• Comply with local regulations when installing
the unit. Installing an object or material on the
windshield or side or rear windows is prohibited
depending on countries and areas. Kenwood
bears no responsibility for any fines, penalties or
damage that may be incurred by disregarding this
notice.
