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 subject the faceplate to excessive  
shock, as it is a piece of precision  
equipment.  
• When replacing a fuse, only use a new one  
with the prescribed rating. Using a fuse  
with the wrong rating may cause your unit

• Do not apply excessive force to the moving  
faceplate. Doing so will cause damage or  
malfunction.  
• Do not apply excessive force to the open  
faceplate or place objects on it. Doing so  
will cause damage or breakdown.  
connected:  
To connect a disc changer having the "O-N"  
switch to this unit, set the "O-N" switch to  
"N".  
following precautions:  
• Insert the unit all the way in until it is fully  
locked in place. Otherwise it may fall out of  
place when jolted.  
When you connect a model with no "O-N"  
switch, the converter cord CA-DS100  
available as an option may be required. For  
details, consult your Kenwood dealer.  
If a model with no "O-N" switch is  
connected, some unavailable functions and  
information that cannot be displayed are  
generated, such as the DNPS, DNPP,  
Magazine random play, and CD Text display.  
Note that none of the KDC-C100, KDC-C302,  
C205, C705, and non-Kenwood CD changers  
can be connected.  
• When extending the ignition, battery, or  
ground wires, make sure to use  
automotive-grade wires or other wires with  
2
a 0.75mm (AWG18) or more to prevent  
wire deterioration and damage to the wire  
coating.  
• To prevent a short circuit, never put or  
leave any metallic objects (such as 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.  
• Make sure not to get your fingers caught  
between the faceplate and the unit.  
• Be careful not to drop the unit or subject it  
to strong shock.  
2CAUTION  
You can damage both your unit and  
the CD changer if you connect them  
incorrectly.  
The unit may break or crack because it  
contains glass parts.  
• Do not touch the liquid crystal fluid if the  
LCD is damaged or broken due to shock.  
The liquid crystal fluid may be dangerous to  
your health or even fatal.  
If the liquid crystal fluid from the LCD  
contacts your body or clothing, wash it off  
with soap immediately.  
Do Not Load 3-in. CDs in the CD slot  
If you try to load a 3 in. CD with its adapter  
into the unit, the adapter might separate  
from the CD and damage the unit.

• The illustrations of the display and the  
panel appearing in this manual are  
examples used to explain more clearly how  
the controls are used. Therefore, what  
appears on the display in the illustrations  
may differ from what appears on the  
display on the actual equipment, and some  
of the illustrations on the display may  
represent something impossible in actual  
operation.  
Cleaning the CD Slot  
NOTE  
As dust tends to accumulate in the CD slot,  
clean it every once in a while. Your CDs can  
get scratched if you put them in a dusty CD  
slot.  
• If you experience problems during  
installation, consult your Kenwood dealer.  
• Press the reset button if the disc auto  
changer is first controlled and operates  
incorrectly. The original operating condition  
will return.  
• The functions that can be used and the  
information that can be displayed will differ  
depending on the external disc players  
being connected.  
Reset button  
• We recommend the use of the Security  
Code function (see p. 28) to prevent theft.  
• Characters in the LCD may become difficult  
to read in temperatures below 41 ˚F (5 ˚C).  
Cleaning the Faceplate Terminals  
If the terminals on the unit or faceplate get  
dirty, wipe them with a dry, soft cloth.  
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 while,  
consult your Kenwood dealer.  
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.  
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.  
— 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  
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 while playing.  
Remove burrs using a ballpoint pen or a  
similar utensil.  
• Do not store CDs in areas exposed to  
direct sunlight (such as a car seat or the  
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.  
• Remove CDs from the unit when not  
listening to them for a while, and put them  
back in their cases. Do not pile up CDs  
that are removed from their cases or prop  
them against something.  
Handling CDs  
• Do not touch the recorded side of the CD  
(the side opposite the label) when holding  
it.  
Burrs  
Burrs  
Cleaning CDs  
If a CD has gotten dirty, wipe it off gently  
using a commercially available cleaning cloth  
or a soft cotton cloth, starting from the  
center 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  
Do not use commercially available CD  
accessories that can be loaded into the CD  
slot, such as stabilizers, protective sheets,  
or CD cleaning discs, since they can cause  
the unit to malfunction.  
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 Use CDs with Sticker on the  
Labeled 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.  
Removing the CD  
Only remove the CD from the machine in a  
horizontal direction, holding it flat. 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.
