Safety precautions
About CD players/disc changers connected
to this unit
Kenwood disc changers/CD players released in 1998
or later can be connected to this unit.
Refer to the catalog or consult your Kenwood dealer
for connectable models of disc changers/CD players.
Note that any Kenwood disc changers/CD players
released in 1997 or earlier and disc changers made by
other makers cannot be connected to this unit.
Connecting unsupported disc changers/CD players to
this unit may result in damage.
2WARNING
To prevent injury or fire, take the following
precautions:
• To prevent a short circuit, never put or leave any
metallic objects (such as coins or metal tools) inside
the unit.
• Mounting and wiring this product requires skills and
experience. For safety’s sake, leave the mounting
and wiring work to professionals.
Set the "O-N" Switch to the "N" position for the
applicable Kenwood disc changers/CD players.
The functions you can use and the information
that can be displayed may differ depending on the
models being connected.
Attach the panel while you are on the
vehicle
The panel lock arm appears when the panel is
removed. Therefore, the panel must be attached
while the electrical system of the car is operating.
•
You can damage both your unit and the CD changer if you
connect them incorrectly.
2CAUTION
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 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 place the faceplate (and 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.
Lens Fogging
When you turn on the car heater in cold weather,
dew or condensation may form on the lens in the
unit. Called lens fogging, this condensation on the
lens may not allow DISC 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 while, consult your Kenwood dealer.
• To prevent deterioration, do not touch the terminals
of the unit or faceplate with your fingers.
• Do not subject the faceplate to excessive shock, as
it is a piece of precision equipment.
• When replacing a fuse, only use a new fuse with
the prescribed rating. Using a fuse with the wrong
rating may cause your unit to malfunction.
• 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.

BMS
DISP
With this function, you can control the amplification
amount for the bass range of the optional power
amplifier with B.M.S functions that is connected by EXT.
CONT. cable.
When set at the "OFF" position, the display disappears
if the unit is not operated for a period of five seconds.
This prevents the display from being reflected in the
vehicle's windows.
Values to be changed and the operation of the
amplifier during the change may differ according to
the amplifiers. For details, refer to the operation manual
of the connected power amplifier.
However, if any of the modes have been set the display
will not disappear even after five seconds.
When the display is off, pressing any buttons will return
the display.
For the amplifier with B.M.S function, refer to the
catalog.
Please note that when the display disappears, the
only operations that can be performed are turning
the power ON and OFF, adjusting volume, selecting a
source and ejecting a disc.
