• 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.

• If you experience problems during

installation, consult your Kenwood dealer.

• If the unit does not seem to be working right,

try pressing the reset button first. If that does
not solve the problem, 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.

Do not wipe the panel with a hard 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.

Handling Cassette Tapes

• Do not play a cassette whose tape has gone

slack. In such a case, wind it tight using a
pencil or the like in one of the spools. Playing
slack cassette tapes can result in the tape
tangling around the capstan and/or pinch
rollers, causing trouble.

• Do not play a deformed cassette or one

whose label is starting to come off, as it can
cause the unit to malfunction.

• Do not leave tapes in hot places, such as on

dashboards and other spots exposed to
direct sunlight, or near heater outlets. They
can deform the cassette.

• Avoid using extremely long cassette tapes,

such as 100-minute-long tapes. Such tapes
are very thin, and can tangle easily around
the pinch rollers or other parts inside the unit,
causing unit failure.

• Remove a cassette tape from the unit when

not listening to it for a while. If you leave a
tape in the unit too long, it may stick to the
tape head and cause unit malfunction.

2CAUTION

Safety precautions

Cleaning the Tape Head

After you have listened to many cassettes
over a long period of time, magnetic powder
from the tapes and dust accumulates on the
tape head, causing noise and a deterioration
in sound quality. Clean the tape head using a
cleaning tape or cleaning kit designed for use
in car audio systems.

Cleaning the CD Slot

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.

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.
