Safety precautions
AWARNING
To prevent injury or fire, take the fol-
lowing 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?
(AWG 18) or more to prevent wire deteriora-
tion 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.
* Be careful not to drop the unit or subject it to
strong shock.
The unit may break or crack because it con-
tains glass parts.
* Do not touch the liquid crystal fluid if the LCD
is damaged or broken due to shock. The lia-
uid crystal fluid may be dangerous to your
health or even fatal.
If the liquid crystal fluid from the LCD con-
tacts your body or clothing, wash it off with
soap immediately.
ACAUTION
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.
* 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 mal-
function.
* To prevent a short circuit when replacing a
fuse, first disconnect the wiring harness.
* Do not use your own screws. Use only the
screws provided. If you use the wrong
screws, you could damage the unit.
For KDC-4009/S3009
* Do not set the removed faceplate or the
faceplate case in areas exposed to direct sun-
light, 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.
* To prevent deterioration, do not touch the
terminals of the unit or faceplate with your
fingers.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
For KDC-4009
You cannot connect the unit directly to the fol-
lowing CD automatic changers. If you want to
use older changers with the unit, follow the
directions below according to the type of
changer you own:
* KDC-C200 / KDC-C300 / KDC-C400
Use the extension cable and the control box
attached to the CD changer, and the optional
CA-DS100 converter cord.
