Safety precautions  
2WARNING  
2CAUTION  
To prevent injury or fire, take the  
following precautions:  
• Insert the unit all the way in until it is fully locked  
in place. Otherwise it may fall out of place when  
jolted.  
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.  
• When extending the ignition, battery, or ground  
wires, make sure to use automotive-grade wires  
or other wires with a 0.75mm² (AWG18) or more  
to prevent wire deterioration and damage to the  
wire coating.  
• To prevent a short circuit, never put or leave any  
metallic objects (such as coins or metal tools)  
inside 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.  
• If the unit starts to emit smoke or strange smells,  
turn off the power immediately and consult your  
Kenwood dealer.  
• To prevent deterioration, do not touch the  
terminals of the unit or faceplate with your  
fingers.  
• Make sure not to get your fingers caught between  
the faceplate and the unit.  
• Do not subject the faceplate to excessive shock,  
as it is a piece of precision equipment.  
• 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.  
• 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 a short circuit when replacing a fuse,  
first disconnect the wiring harness.  
• Do not place any object between the faceplate  
and the unit.  
• Do not apply excessive force to the open  
faceplate or place objects on it. Doing so will  
cause damage or breakdown.  
• Do not use your own screws. Use only the screws  
provided. If you use the wrong screws, you could  
damage the unit.

Accessories/ Installation Procedure  
Accessories  
Installation Procedure  
1. To prevent a short circuit, remove the key from  
the ignition and disconnect the - battery.  
2. Make the proper input and output wire  
connections for each unit.  
3. Connect the speaker wires of the wiring harness.  
4. Connect the wiring harness wires in the  
following order: ground, battery, ignition.  
..........1  
5. Connect the wiring harness connector to the  
unit.  
6. Install the unit in your car.  
7. Reconnect the - battery.  
8. Press the reset button.  
..........2  
2WARNING  
If you connect the ignition wire (red) and the battery wire  
(yellow) to the car chassis (ground), you may cause a short  
circuit, that in turn may start a fire. Always connect those  
wires to the power source running through the fuse box.  
..........4  
If your car’s ignition does not have an ACC position,  
connect the ignition wires to a power source that can be  
turned on and off with the ignition key. If you connect  
the ignition wire to a power source with a constant  
voltage supply, as with battery wires, the battery may die.  
If the console has a lid, make sure to install the unit so  
that the faceplate will not hit the lid when closing and  
opening.  
..........4  
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.  
Insulate unconnected wires with vinyl tape or other  
similar material. To prevent a short circuit, do not remove  
the caps on the ends of the unconnected wires or the  
terminals.  
Connect the speaker wires correctly to the terminals to  
which they correspond. The unit may be damaged or fail  
to work if you share the - wires or ground them to any  
metal part in the car.  
When only two speakers are being connected to the  
system, connect the connectors either to both the front  
output terminals or to both the rear output terminals  
(do not mix front and rear). For example, if you connect  
the + connector of the left speaker to a front output  
terminal, do not connect the - connector to a rear  
output terminal.  
After the unit is installed, check whether the brake lamps,  
blinkers, wipers, etc. on the car are working properly.  
Mount the unit so that the mounting angle is 30° or less.
