Lens Fogging  
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

consult your Kenwood dealer.  
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.  
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.  
Cleaning the Faceplate Term inals  
If the terminals on the unit or faceplate get  
dirty, wipe them with a dry, soft cloth.

Handling Com pact discs  
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.  
Playing a CD that is dirty, scratched  
or w arped can cause the sound to  
skip and the unit to operate  
incorrectly, resulting in w orsened  
sound quality. Take the follow ing  
precautions to prevent your CDs from  
getting scratched or dam aged.  
Cleaning CDs  
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.  
Rem oving the CD

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.  
2CAUTION  
Do not stick tape on either side of the CD.  
Do Not Load 8-cm (3-in.) CDs in

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.  
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, also do not remove the caps on the ends of the  
unconnected 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
