Safety Precautions
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, battery or ground cables, make sure to
use automotive-grade cables or other cables with an area of
0.75mm
2
(AWG18) or more to prevent cable deterioration and
damage to the cable 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.
• 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.
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.
• Do not subject the faceplate 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.
