2WARNING

To prevent injury and/or fire, take the following
precautions:

• Ensure that the unit is securely installed. Otherwise it may fly

out of place during collisions and other jolts.

• When extending the ignition, battery or ground wires,

make sure to use automotive-grade wires or other wires
with an area of 0.75mm (AWG18) or more to prevent cable
deterioration and damage to the cable coating.

objects (e.g., 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.

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
