IMPORTANT INFORMATION
About the disc changer to be connected:

To connect a disc changer having the "O-N" switch
to this unit, set the "O-N" switch to "N".
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.

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

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.

NOTE

2CAUTION

• 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.
