Safety precautions

To prevent injury or fire, take the
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 extending the ignition, battery, or

ground wires, make sure to use automotive-
grade wires or other wires with a 0.75mm

2

(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.
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.

2WARNING

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 to
malfunction.

• To prevent a short circuit when replacing a

fuse, first disconnect the wiring harness.

• Do not place any object between the

faceplate and the unit.

• Do not use your own screws. Use only the

screws provided. If you use the wrong
screws, you could damage the unit.

• Do not apply excessive force to the open

faceplate or place objects on it. Doing so will
cause damage or breakdown.

2CAUTION

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
About the disc changer/CD player to
be connected:

To connect a disc changer having the "O-N"
switch to this unit, set the "O-N" switch to "N".
To connect a disc changer having no "O-N"

A disc changer doesn't work when it is
connected without using these options.
If a model with no "O-N" switch is connected,
some unavailable functions and information
that cannot be displayed are generated.
Note that none of the KDC-C100, KDC-C302,

You can damage both your unit and the CD
changer if you connect them incorrectly.

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.
