WARNING
Ñ To prevent injury or fire, take the following
precautions:
• To prevent a short circuit, never put or leave any metallic
objects (such as coins or metal tools) inside the unit.
• Do not watch or fix your eyes on the unit's display when
you are driving for any extended period.
• If you experience problems during installation, consult
your KENWOOD dealer.
Ñ Precautions on using this unit
• When you purchase optional accessories, check with
your KENWOOD dealer to make sure that they work with
your model and in your area.
• You can select language to display menus, audio file
tags, etc. See User Interface Setup (P.80) in the
Instruction Manual.
• The Radio Data System or Radio Broadcast Data System
feature won't work where the service is not supported
by any broadcasting station.
• The unit may not function properly if the connectors
between the unit and front panel are dirty. Detach the
front panel and clean the connector with a cotton swab
gently, being careful not to damage the connector.
Ñ Precautions on battery
• Put the remote control in a place where it will not
move during braking or other operations. A dangerous
situation could result, if the remote control falls down
and gets wedged under the pedals while driving.
• Do not leave the battery near fire or under direct
sunlight. A fire, explosion or excessive heat generation
may result.
• Do not recharge, short, break up or heat the battery
or place it in an open fire. Such actions may cause the
battery to leak fluid. If spilled fluid comes in contact with
your eyes or on clothing, immediately rinse with water
