Cleaning the Faceplate Terminals
If the terminals on the unit or faceplate get
dirty, wipe them with a dry, soft cloth.
The marking of products using lasers
(Except for some areas)
CLASS 1
LASER PRODUCT
Cleaning the Unit
If the faceplate of this unit is stained, wipe it
with a dry soft cloth such as a silicon cloth.
If the faceplate is stained badly, wipe the
stain off with a cloth moistened with neutral
cleaner, then wipe neutral detergent off.
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
Applying spray cleaner directly to the unit
may affect its mechanical parts. Wiping the
faceplate with a hard cloth or using a volatile
liquid such as thinner or alcohol may scratch
the surface or erases characters.
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
for the condensation to evaporate. If the unit
still does not operate normally after a whilst,
consult your Kenwood dealer.
Cleaning the CD Slot
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.
— 5 —
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.
Storing CDs
Checking New CDs for Burrs
• Do not store CDs in areas exposed to direct
sunlight – such as a car seat or above the
fascia panel (dashboard) – or other hot
places.
A CD-R or CD-RW is more susceptible than
a music CD to damage from high
temperatures and humidity, and in some
cases, may become unusable if left in the
car for long periods of time.
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.
Egnlish
Handling CDs
• 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.
• Do not touch the recorded side of the CD
(i.e., the side opposite the label) when
holding it.
Burrs
Burrs
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.
• The reflective film on a CD-R or a CD-RW is
more fragile than that on an ordinary music CD,
and may peel off if scratched. Fingerprints on a
CD-R or CD-RW are also more likely to cause
skipping when the disc is played. For these
reasons, handle the disc very carefully. Detailed
handling instructions will appear on the CD-R or
CD-RW package: read this information carefully
before using the disc.
• Do not stick tape on either side of the CD.
Tape
— 6 —
Do Not Load CD Accessories in Slot
Do Not Use Special Shape CDs
Do Not Use CDs with Sticker on the
Labelled Side
Do not use the CD with the label sticker
stuck on it.
Using such a CD may cause the CD to be
deformed and the sticker to peel off,
resulting in malfunction of the unit.
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.
• 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.
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.
• Be sure to use CDs with disc mark
only for this unit.
•CD-Rs and CD-RWs which have not
undergone finalization processing cannot be
played. (For more information on finalization
processing, refer to the manual for your CD-
R/CD-RW writing software or CD-R/CD-RW
recorder.) Additionally, depending on the
recording status, it may prove impossible to
play certain CDs recorded on CD-R or CD-
RW.

RDS (Radio Data System)
Traffic Information Function
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.
You can listen to traffic information. If you are listening to
tapes or discs, they will continue playing until a traffic bulletin
is broadcast.

indicator will turn on.
When a traffic bulletin begins to be broadcast, "Traffic Info" 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.
