(Except for some areas)

CLASS 1

LASER PRODUCT

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.

The label is attached to the chassis/case and

says that the component uses laser beams

that have been classified as Class 1. It

means that the unit is utilizing laser beams

that are of a weaker class. There is no

danger of hazardous radiation outside the

unit.

2CAUTION

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.

Lens Fogging

Cleaning the CD Slot

Right after you turn on the car heater in cold

weather, dew or condensation may form on

the lens in the CD player of the unit. Called

lens fogging, CDs 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.

As dust can accumulate in the CD slot, clean

it occasionally. Your CDs can get scratched if

you put them in a dusty CD slot.

Handling Compact discs

Playing a CD 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 CDs from

getting scratched or damaged.

Cleaning CDs

Do Not Load CD Accessories in Slot

If a CD 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 CDs with conventional record

cleaners, anti- static formulas, or chemicals

such as paint thinner or benzene.

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.

Egnlish

Removing the CD

Only remove the CD from the machine in a

horizontal direction. You may damage the

surface of the CD if you try pulling it down

as it ejects.

Handling CDs

• Do not touch the recorded side of the CD

(i.e., the side opposite the label) when

holding it.

Checking New CDs for Burrs

When playing a new CD for the first time,

check that there are not any burrs stuck to

the perimeter of the disc or in the central

hole. CDs with burrs stuck on them may not

load properly or may skip whilst playing.

Remove burrs using a ballpoint pen or a

similar utensil.

Do Not Use Special Shape CDs

• Be sure to use round shape CDs only for

this unit and do not use any special shape

CDs. Use of special shape CDs may cause

the unit to malfunction.

• Do not stick tape on either side of the CD.

sunlight – such as a car seat or above the

fascia panel (dashboard) – or other hot

places.

• Remove CDs from the unit when not

listening to them for a whilst, and put them

back in their cases. Do not stack CDs that

have been removed from their cases or prop

them against something.

DIGITAL AUDIO

• Be sure to use CDs with disc mark

Burrs

only for this unit.

RDS (Radio Data System)

Traffic Information Function

You can listen to traffic information. If you are listening to

tapes or discs, they will continue playing until a traffic bulletin

is broadcast.

RDS is a digital information system that lets you receive

signals besides those of regular radio programmes, such as

network information being transmitted from radio stations.

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

capability), 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 frequency

with the best reception for the particular network of stations

that you want to listen to. The data is automatically stored,

allowing you to switch quickly to another RDS stations,

broadcasting the same programme, that has better reception.

These include stations stored in the station preset memory that

you often listen to.

Egnlish

Turning TI function On/Off:

Press the TI button to turn the function on and off.

When the function is on, the TI indicator is turned on.

When none is being received, the TI indicator will blink on and

off. When a traffic information station is being received, the TI

indicator will turn on.

When a traffic bulletin begins to be broadcast, "TRAFFIC" will

be displayed, 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 bulletin

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

begin playing again.

NOTE

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.

Enhanced Other Network

Stations that offer <Enhanced Other Network> 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.

Switching to a Different Traffic Information Station:

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

stations in a certain band.

NOTE

• When you are listening to a tape or disc, you cannot change to

another TI station.

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

starts to weaken, the tuner automatically seeks traffic

information stations with better reception.

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

station itself but which provides <Enhanced Other Network>

services, you can still have traffic information received.

• Holding the TI button down for one second or more when the

TI function is on in the disc control mode results in a change to

the frequency display of the traffic information station for five

seconds.

Alarm

When an emergency transmission (announcing disasters, etc.)

is sent, all current functions are interrupted to allow the

warning to be received.
