Safety precautions

— 3 —

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

(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.

• 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.

2WARNING

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 set the removed faceplate or the face-

plate case in areas exposed to direct sunlight,

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.

• To prevent deterioration, do not touch the

terminals of the unit or faceplate with your

fingers.

• 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 mal-

function.

• To prevent short circuits when replacing a

fuse, first disconnect the wiring harness.

• 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.

2CAUTION

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 convert-

er cable.

• C705i / C705si

Use the extension cable attached to the CD

changer, and the optional CA-K300 converter

cable.

• KDC-C100 / KDC-C302 / C205 / C705 /

Reset button

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 Faceplate Terminals

If the terminals on the unit or faceplate get

dirty, wipe them with a dry, soft cloth.

2CAUTION

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.

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.

RDS features (See page 6)

English

— 12 —

RDS (Radio Data System)

RDS is a digital information system that lets you receive sig-

nals besides those of regular radio programmes, such as net-

work information being transmitted from radio stations.

When listening to an RDS station (ie, a station with RDS capa-

bility), the programme service name of the station is displayed

along with the frequency, advising you quickly which station

is being received.

RDS (Radio Data System) stations also transmit frequency

data for the same station. When you are making long trips,

this function automatically switches to the particular frequen-

cy with the best reception for the particular network of sta-

tions that you want to listen to. The data is automatically

stored, allowing you to switch quickly to another RDS sta-

tions, broadcasting the same programme, that has better

reception. These include stations stored in the station preset

memory that you often listen to.

Alarm

When an emergency transmission (announcing disasters, etc.)

is sent, all current functions are interrupted to allow the warn-

ing to be received.

EON (Enhanced Other Network)

Stations that offer EON also transmit information about other

RDS stations that have traffic information. When you are

tuned to a station that is not transmitting traffic information,

but another RDS station starts transmitting a traffic bulletin,

the tuner automatically switches to the other station for the

duration of the bulletin.

The EON indicator lights up when the RDS station currently

being listened to starts to broadcast EON frequency data.

AF (Alternative Frequency) Function

When poor reception is experienced, automatically switch to

another frequency broadcasting the same programme in the

same RDS network with better reception.

The AF indicator lights up when the AF function is turned on.

Turning AF Function On/Off:

Hold down the MENU button for one second or more.

"MENU" is displayed and the menu mode is turned on.

Press the ¢ button repeatedly until the AF function appears

in the display.

Press the 4 button to search in the other direction.

The function setting is indicated by "AF ON" or "AF OFF" in the

display, indicating that the AF function is on or off, respective-

ly.

Switching settings

Press either the AM button or FM button.

The display and setting will change.

Press the MENU button to end the menu mode.

Displaying Frequencies:

Hold down the CLK button for one second or more.

The frequency for the RDS station will be displayed for five

seconds instead of the station name.

When no other stations with stronger reception are available for

the same programme in the RDS network, you may hear the

incoming broadcast in bits and snatches. Turn off the AF function

in such a case.

NOTE

Restricting RDS Region (Region Restrict Function)

You can choose whether or not to restrict the RDS channels,

received with the AF function for a particular network, to a

specific region. When the Region Restrict Function is on, the

tor will blink on and off.

When a traffic bulletin begins to be broadcast, the TA indicator

will turn on, and reception will begin at the preset volume.

If you are listening to a tape or disc when a traffic bulletin

begins, they will automatically be turned off. When the bul-

letin ends or poor reception is experienced, the tape or disc

will begin playing again.

Pressing the TI button whilst in the MW/LW band automatically

switches reception to the FM band. However, the MW/LW band

is not returned to when the TI button is pressed again.

Switching to a Different Traffic Information Station:

Use the 4 / ¢ buttons to make an auto seek of the TI sta-

tions in a certain band.

NOTE

Auto TP Seek Function

When the TI function is on and poor reception conditions are

experienced when listening to a traffic information station,

another traffic information station with better reception will

be searched for automatically. This function is on, when unit

is first powered on.

another TI station.

• When the auto TP seek function is turned on and reception

starts to weaken, the tuner automatically seeks stations with

better reception.

• If you are tuned to a station that is not a traffic information sta-

tion itself but which provides EON services, you can still have

traffic information received. The EON indicator lights up when

EON signals are being received.

connect the ignition cable to a power source that can be turned

on and off with the ignition key.

• 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 cir-

cuits, also do not remove the caps on the ends of the uncon-

nected cables or the terminals.

• Connect the speaker cables correctly to the terminals to which

they correspond. The unit may receive damage or fail to work if

you share the - cables and/or ground them to any metal part in

the car.

• After the unit is installed, check whether the brake lamps, indi-

cators, wipers, etc. on the car are working properly.

• Some disc changers need conversion cables for connection.
