Safety Precautions

WARNING
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 or ground wires, make sure to use
automotive-grade wire or other cables that are 18 gauge
(AWG18) or thicker to prevent wire deterioration and damage to
the wire coating.
• To prevent short circuits, never put or leave any metallic 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.
• 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.
• Do not install the console so that the screen can be seen by the
driver while operating the vehicle.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the LZH-70W, take the following
precautions:
• Make sure to ground the unit to a negative 12V DC power supply.
• Do not open the back cover 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 monitor unit 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 short circuits when replacing a fuse, first disconnect
the wiring harness.
• Do not use any screws except for the ones provided. The use of
improper screws might result in damage to the main unit.
RESETTING THE MICROPROCESSOR
If the unit does not seem to be working properly, turn the vehicle's
ignition off, then on again. If that does not solve the problem, con-
sult your Kenwood dealer.
If you experience problems during installation, consult your
Kenwood dealer.
