Cleaning the disc slot  
Checking New discs for Burrs  
As dust can accumulate in the disc slot, clean it  
occasionally. Your discs can get scratched if you put them  
in a dusty disc slot.  
When playing a new disc for the first time, check that there  
are not any burrs stuck to the perimeter of the disc or in the  
central hole. discs with burrs stuck on them may not load  
properly or may skip whilst playing. Remove burrs using a  
ballpoint pen or a similar utensil.  
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.  
Burrs  
Burrs  
Playing a disc that is dirty, scratched or warped  
can cause the sound to skip and the unit to  
operate incorrectly, resulting in worsened sound  
quality. Take the following precautions to prevent  
your discs from getting scratched or damaged.  
Do Not Load CD Accessories in Slot  
Do not use commercially available CD accessories that can  
be loaded into the CD slot, such as stabilisers, protective  
sheets, or CD cleaning discs, since they can cause the unit  
to malfunction.  
Handling discs  
• Do not touch the recorded side of the disc (i.e., the side  
opposite the label) when holding it.  
Removing the disc  
Only remove the disc from the machine in a horizontal  
direction. You may damage the surface of the disc if you try  
pulling it down as it ejects.  
Do Not Use Special Shape Discs  
• Be sure to use round shape Discs only for this unit and  
do not use any special shape Discs. Use of special  
shape Discs may cause the unit to malfunction.  
• The reflective film on a CD-R or a CD-RW is more  
fragile than that on an ordinary music CD, and may peel  
off if scratched. Fingerprints on a CD-R or CD-RW are  
also more likely to cause skipping when the disc is  
played. For these reasons, handle the disc very  
carefully. Detailed handling instructions will appear on  
the CD-R or CD-RW package: read this information  
carefully before using the disc.  
• CD-Rs and CD-RWs which have not undergone  
finalization processing cannot be played. (For more  
information on finalization processing, refer to the  
manual for your CD-R/CD-RW writing software or CD-  
R/CD-RW recorder.) Additionally, depending on the  
recording status, it may prove impossible to play certain  
Discs recorded on CD-R or CD-RW.  
• Do not stick tape on either side of the disc.  
Tape  
Do Not Use discs with Sticker on the Labelled  
Side  
Do not use the disc with the label sticker stuck on it.  
Using such a disc may cause the disc to be deformed and  
the sticker to peel off, resulting in malfunction of the unit.  
Storing discs  
• Do not store discs in areas exposed to direct sunlight  
(such as a car seat or the dashboard) or other hot  
places. A CD-R or CD-RW is more susceptible than a  
music CD to damage from high temperatures and  
humidity, and in some cases, may become unusable if  
left in the car for long periods of time.  
• Remove discs from the unit when not listening to them  
for a while, and put them back in their cases. Do not  
pile up discs that are removed from their cases or prop  
them against something.  
Cleaning discs  
If a disc has become dirty, wipe it off gently using a  
commercially available cleaning cloth or a soft cotton cloth,  
starting from the centre of the disc and moving outward.  
Do not clean discs with conventional record cleaners, anti-  
static formulas, or chemicals such as paint thinner or  
benzene.

Glossary  
DVD: Digital Versatile Disc  
P.B.C.: Play-Back Control (VCD)  
A type of disc which contains recording of audio/video  
packaged media with high video and audio quality, such  
as a movie, featuring large recording capacity and digital  
signal processing capability.  
When a VIDEO CD carries “Play Back Control capable” or

images. It compresses image information by about 1/120  
and audio information by about 1/6 and accommodates up  
to 74 minutes of recording in a disc with the same  
diameter as ordinary music CD of 12 cm.  
Some VCDs do not have the P.B.C. compatibility and are  
capable of playback only, while some are P.B.C.-  
compatible and are capable of various special playback  
control operations. This player can play both of these  
VCDs.  
MPEG: Moving Picture Expert Group (DVD, VCD)  
This is an international standard for digital video and audio  
compression and decompression in media.  
Dolby Digital  
This is a digital audio compression technology developed  
by Dolby Laboratories. It is compatible with 5.1-channel  
surround audio as well as normal stereo (2-channel) audio  
and can accommodate a large amount of audio data  
efficiently in a disc.  
DTS  
Name of a digital surround system developed by Digital  
Theater Systems, Inc.  
Top menu/menu (DVD)  
Some DVDs display more than one title in a screen. This  
screen is referred to as the title menu.  
The DVD menu is the item display (menu screen) for use  
in setting operations. The DVD menu can be recalled any  
time during playback to perform settings according to the  
current software, including the audio switching between  
Dolby Digital and PCM, switching of language used in the  
subtitles and spoken voice.  
Title number (DVD)  
The title is the largest unit of video and audio recorded in  
a DVD. It usually corresponds to a single movie of video  
software or an album (sometimes a piece of music) of  
music software. The numbers assigned to individual titles  
are referred to as the title numbers.  
Chapter number (DVD)  
The chapter is a section of video and audio recorded in a  
DVD. A title is composed of several chapters. The  
numbers assigned to individual chapters are referred to as  
the chapter numbers.  
Subtitles (DVD)  
Some DVD discs contains the recording of more than one  
subtitle language. This player allow you to select one of  
the recorded subtitle languages during playback. If the  
subtitle language is set to “Automatic” in the initial setup,  
subtitles are displayed only when the spoken voice is in  
other language than the initial set language.

Track number (CD, VCD)  
A track is also a section of video and audio recorded in a  
disc. The numbers assigned to individual tracks are  
referred to as the track numbers.  
With most of music Discs, a track is assigned to a piece  
of music. However, with a VCD, the sections of the  
contents do not always correspond to the assigned  
tracks.  
As (special) playback functions such as skipping and  
programming of ordinary Discs are based on track number  
data, such playback functions are sometimes impossible  
with some VCDs.

each unit.  
3. Connect the speaker cables of the wiring harness.  
• Insulate unconnected cables with vinyl tape or other  
similar material.  
4. Take Connector B on the wiring harness and connect it  
to the speaker connector in your vehicle.  
• During use, the surface temperature of this unit will  
become high, therefore it should not be mounted  
where anything sensitive to the heat, such as people  
or resins, would come into contact with it.  
• Do not install the unit under the carpet. Otherwise  
heat build-up occurs and the unit may be damaged.  
• Install this unit in a location which allows heat to easily  
dissipate.

when the antenna cord has an ISO plug.  
• Make sure that all cable connections are securely  
made by inserting jacks until they lock completely.  
• If your vehicle's ignition does not have an ACC  
position, or if the ignition cable is connected to a  
power source with constant voltage such as a battery  
cable, the power will not be linked with the ignition  
(i.e., it will not turn on and off along with the ignition).  
If you want to link the unit's power with the ignition,  
connect the ignition cable to a power source that can  
be turned on and off with the ignition key.  
Once installed, do not place any object on top of the  
unit.  
• Install the unit securely in a location that does not  
interfere with driving.  
• Mount the monitor unit so that the mounting angle is  
30° or less.  
• If the fuse blows, first make sure that the cables have  
not caused a short circuit, then replace the old fuse  
with one with the same rating.  
• Do not let unconnected cables or terminals touch  
metal on the car or anything else conducting  
electricity. To prevent short circuits do not remove the  
caps from unused terminals or from the ends of the  
unconnected cables.

Installing the Antenna Units  
• Attach the antenna to the inner glass surface of the rear window using double-sided tape. Carefully check the installation  
location as the tape can only be stuck on once.  
• If the surface temperature of the glass of the rear window is low, warm it by turning on the power of the rear defogger.  
A cold window glass surface will weaken the adhesive strength of the double-sided tape.  
Also, if installation inside the cabin is performed on a day with high humidity or when it is raining, the high humidity level will  
weaken the adhesive strength of the double-sided tape.  
• Do not install the antenna in a location where it may obstruct the field of view during driving, such as on the windshield.  
1
Check the location where the antenna is to be attached.Clean off  
any grease or dirt from the installation location using the supplied  
glass cleaner (Accessory P), clean the area with water and allow  
to dry.  
Antenna parts  
2 CAUTION  
Clean the glass thoroughly as failure to clean the glass can not  
only weaken the adhesive strength of the double-sided tape, but  
may also cause it to come loose.
