(page 2) !WARNING • The unit can only be installed in a car with a 12 V DC power supply, negative ground. • If you connect the ignition wire (red) and the battery wire (yellow) to the car chassis (ground), you may cause a short circuit, that in turn may start a fire. Always connect those wires to the power source running through the fuse box. • Disconnect the battery's negative terminal and make all electrical connections before installing the unit. • Insulate unconnected wires with vinyl tape or other similar material. To prevent a short circuit, do not remove the caps on the ends of the unconnected wires or the terminals. • Be sure to ground this unit to the car's chassis again after mounting. • If the power is not turned ON ("PROTECT" is displayed), the speaker wire may have a short-circuit or touched the chassis of the vehicle and the protection function may have been activated. Therefore, the speaker wire should be checked. !CAUTION • If your car's ignition key switch does not have an ACC position, connect the ignition wires to a power source that can be turned on and off with the ignition key. If you connect the ignition wires to a constant-voltage power source, as with battery wires, the battery may die. • Do not use your own screws. Use only the screws provided. • Install this unit in the console of your vehicle. Make sure the faceplate will not hit the lid of the console (if any) when closing and opening. • After the installing the unit, check whether the brake lamps, blinkers, wipers, etc. on the car are working properly. • Mount the unit so that the mounting angle is 30° or less. • If the fuse blows, first make sure the wires are not touching other parts to cause a short circuit, and then replace the old fuse with one with new one with the same rating. • Connect the speaker wires correctly to the corresponding terminals. The unit may be damaged or fail to work if you share the ¤ wires or ground them to any metal part in the car. • When only two speakers are being connected to the system, connect the connectors either to both the front output terminals or to both the rear output terminals (do not mix front and rear). • Mounting and wiring this product requires skills and experience. For safety's sake, leave this work to professionals. If you experience problems during installation, consult your Kenwood dealer. • Reception may become poor if there are metal objects near the Bluetooth antenna. Bluetooth antenna unit For Good Reception To assure good reception, note the following: • Communicate with the cell-phone within the line-of-sight distance of 10 m (30 ft). The communication range becomes shorter depending on the surrounding environment. The communication range also becomes shorter when there is an obstacle between this unit and the cell-phone. The above maximum communication range (10 m) is not always assured. • A broadcast station or walkie-talkie located nearby can interfere with communication due to a too strong signal. ! CAUTION Install this unit in the console of your vehicle. Do not touch the metal part of this unit during and shortly after the use of the unit. Metal part such as the heat sink and enclosure become hot. English | 7
