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 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. 2 warning 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 moving faceplate. doing so will cause damage or malfunction. do not apply excessive force to the open faceplate or place objects on it. doing so will cause damage or breakdown. 2 caution 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 / kdc- c601 / 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. you can damage both your unit and the cd changer if you connect them incorrectly. 2 caution safety precautions ?4 english if you experience problems during installation, consult your kenwood dealer. if the unit fails to operate properly, press the reset button. when the faceplate controls are not visible, press the left part at the upper side of the faceplate (as illustrated on p.8) for as many times as you have preset to make the faceplate controls appear. the unit returns to factory settings when the reset button is pressed. after you press the reset button, the mask key will be needed to restart the unit. if the unit still fails to operate properly after the reset button has been pressed, contact your local kenwood dealer for assistance. press the reset button if the cd auto changer is first controlled and operates incorrectly. the original operating condition will return. characters in the lcd may become difficult to read in temperatures below 41 ?f (5 ?c). note fm am src clk aud disp name.s ti vol adj mtl / m.rdm d.scn rep b.s / rdm scan att loud nf disc disc dab off eject menu prog / pty bcnr reset button the illustrations of the display and the panel appearing in this manual are 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. safety precautions mask key if you have transmitted the mask key's signal once to the unit in advance, you will have to transmit it once again if the unit has been removed from the battery. this function helps prevent theft. when using the unit for the first time: in order to deactivate the demonstration mode, be sure to press the transmit button to transmit the mask key's signal. if this procedure is not carried out, the control panel of the unit will re-open in two seconds even with your vehicle's ignition turned off. do not loose the "mask key". if power is disconnected from the unit, correct operation can only be restored by the "mask key's" signal. the "mask key" will also be required for service repair. if you send products in for repair that include a mask key, make sure to present the unit together with the mask key. note 2 caution dolby noise reduction manufactured under license from dolby laboratories licensing corporation. ?olby?and the double-d symbol are trademarks of dolby laboratories licensing corporation. ?5 cleaning the faceplate terminals if the terminals on the unit or faceplate get dirty, wipe them with a dry, soft cloth. 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. 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. 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. 2 caution 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. switching modes: switching modes you can help prevent theft of the unit by reversing the faceplate so that the control panel cannot be seen, hiding the unit, and shutting off the audio. power on/off: when you turn your vehicle? ignition on, the unit? power will also turn on, with the faceplate reversing to show the control panel. when you turn your vehicle's ignition off, the faceplate will reverse to hide the control panel after a period of time which you have set in the "time setting for removing the faceplate" in the menu. the unit's power will turn off. alternatively, you can remove the faceplate during that period. for details, refer to the "removing the faceplate" (page10). after installation of your mask unit, be sure to transmit the "mask key's" signal to deactivate the demonstration mode. if this procedure is not carried out, the control panel of the unit will re-open in two seconds even with your vehicle's ignition turned off. when the control panel of the faceplate is hidden, the unit will be locked by the sleeve, making it more difficult to remove the unit. when the moving faceplate is hit by an object, it will stop and return to its original state. remove the object and repeat the action. using the unit in vehicles with covered consoles make sure the console is uncovered whilst the faceplate is reversed. do not exert any excess force on the movable parts of the unit, including the faceplate, as it can cause failure in the unit? mechanism. 2 caution note power general features ?6 english u d fm am src clk aud disp name.s mtl / m.rdm d.scn rep b.s / rdm scan att loud nf disc disc dab off
