Before Use
Precautions
# WARNINGS

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.73).
• 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.

NOTE
• Applying spray cleaner directly to the unit may
affect its mechanical parts. Wiping the faceplate
with a hard cloth or using a volatile liquid such
as thinner or alcohol may scratch the surface or
erase screened print.

Ñ Lens fogging
When you turn on the car heater in cold
weather, dew or condensation may form on
the lens in the disc player of the unit. Called
lens fogging, this condensation on the lens
may not allow discs to play. In such a situation,
remove the disc and wait for the condensation
to evaporate. If the unit still does not operate
normally after a while, consult your KENWOOD
dealer.

Ñ Precautions on handling discs
• Do not touch the recording surface of the disc.
• Do not stick tape etc. on the disc, or use a disc
with tape stuck on it.
• Do not use disc type accessories.
• Clean from the center of the disc and move
outward.
• When removing discs from this unit, pull them
out horizontally.
• If the disc center hole or outside rim has burrs,
use the disc only after removing the burrs with
a ballpoint pen etc.
• Discs that are not round cannot be used.

Ñ Protecting the monitor
• To protect the monitor from damage, do not
operate the monitor using a ball point pen or
similar tool with the sharp tip.

Ñ Cleaning the unit
• If the faceplate of this unit is stained, wipe it
with a dry soft cloth such as a silicon cloth. If
the faceplate is stained badly, wipe the stain
off with a cloth moistened with neutral cleaner,
then wipe it again with a clean soft dry cloth.

4

• 8-cm (3 inch) discs cannot be used.
• Discs with coloring on the recording surface or
discs that are dirty cannot be used.
• This unit can only play the CDs with
.
• This unit may not correctly play discs which do
not have the mark.
• You cannot play a disc that has not been
finalized. (For the finalization process see your

Before Use
writing software, and your recorder instruction
manual.)

Ñ Acquiring GPS signal
The first time you turn on this unit, you must
wait while the system acquires satellite signals
for the first time. This process could take up
to several minutes. Make sure your vehicle
is outdoors in an open area away from tall
buildings and trees for fastest acquisition.
After the system acquires satellites for the first
time, it will acquire satellites quickly each time
thereafter.

Ñ About the front panel
When removing the product from the box or
installing it, the front panel may be positioned
at the angle shown in (Fig. 1). This is due to the
characteristics of mechanism the product is
equipped with.
When the product is first powered on works
properly, the front panel will automatically move
into the position (initial setting angle) shown in
(Fig. 2).

(Fig. 1)

(Fig. 2)

Ñ Caution for Smartphone Users
Simultaneously running multiple applications
on your smartphone while screen sharing places
heavy demand on the microprocessor of the
phone, potentially affecting communication and
performance.
For best results while pairing with your Kenwood
receiver, please be sure to close any unused
applications by performing the following steps:
Android operating system example:
• Turn off WiFi in phone settings menu.
• Close all open applications before connecting
for in-car use. Hold the  key and select
 to close all open applications.
• Clear RAM Memory of the Android phone
before connecting for in-car use. Hold the
 key and select  then
select  then select  to
clear current memory processes.

 Key

Safety Precautions and
Important Information
Read this information carefully before starting to
operate the KENWOOD Car Navigation System
and follow the instructions in this manual.
Neither KENWOOD nor Garmin shall be liable for
problems or accidents resulting from failure to
observe the instructions in this manual.

# WARNING
Failure to avoid the following potentially
hazardous situations could result in an
accident or collision resulting in death or
serious injury.
When navigating, carefully compare information
displayed on the navigation system to all
available navigation sources, including
information from street signs, visual sightings,
and maps. For safety, always resolve any
discrepancies or questions before continuing
navigation.
Always operate the vehicle in a safe manner.
Do not become distracted by the navigation
system while driving, and always be fully aware
of all driving conditions. Minimize the amount of
time spent viewing the screen of the navigation
system while driving, and use voice prompts
when possible.
Do not enter destinations, change settings, or
access any functions requiring prolonged use
of the navigation system controls while driving.
Stop your vehicle in a safe and legal manner
before attempting such operations.
Keep the system volume at a low enough level
to be able to hear outside noises while driving.
If you can no longer hear outside noises, you
may be unable to react adequately to the traffic
situation. This may cause accidents.
The navigation system will not display the
correct current position of the vehicle the first
time it is used after purchase, or if the vehicle
battery is disconnected. GPS satellite signals
will soon be received, however, and the correct
English

5

Before Use
position will be displayed.
Be careful of the ambient temperature. Using the
navigation system at extreme temperatures can
lead to malfunction or damage. Also note that
the unit can be damaged by strong vibration,
by metal objects, or by water getting inside the
unit.

# CAUTION
Failure to avoid the following potentially
hazardous situations may result in injury or
property damage.
The navigation system is designed to provide
you with route suggestions. It does not reflect
road closures or road conditions, weather
conditions, or other factors that may affect safety
or timing while driving.
Use the navigation system only as a navigational
aid. Do not attempt to use the navigation system
for any purpose requiring precise measurement
of direction, distance, location, or topography.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated
by the United States government, which is solely
responsible for its accuracy and maintenance.
The government system is subject to changes
that could affect the accuracy and performance
of all GPS equipment, including the navigation
system. Although the navigation system is a
precision navigation device, any navigation
device can be misused or misinterpreted and,
therefore, become unsafe.

Ñ IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Vehicle Battery Preservation
This navigation system can be used when the
ignition key is turned to ON or ACC. To preserve
the battery, however, it should be used with
the engine running whenever possible. Using
the navigation system for a long time with the
engine switched off can cause the battery to run
down.

Map Data Information
One of the goals of Garmin is to provide
customers with the most complete and
accurate cartography that is available to us at
a reasonable cost. We use a combination of
governmental and private data sources, which
we identify in product literature and copyright
messages displayed to the consumer. Virtually
all data sources contain some inaccurate or

6

incomplete data. In some countries, complete
and accurate map information is either not
available or is prohibitively expensive.

Connection/Installation

Connection/Installation
Before Installation
Before installation of this unit, please note the
following precautions.

# WARNINGS
• 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.
• Do not cut out the fuse from the ignition wire
(red) and the battery wire (yellow). The power
supply must be connected to the wires via
the fuse.

# 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.

NOTE
• Mounting and wiring this product requires
skills and experience. For best safety, leave the
mounting and wiring work to professionals.
• Make sure to ground the unit to a negative 12V
DC power supply.
• 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 use your own screws. Use only the
screws provided. If you use the wrong screws,
you could damage the unit.
• If the power is not turned ON (“There is an
error in the speaker wiring. Please check the
connections.” 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.
• If your car’s ignition does not have an ACC
position, connect the ignition wires to a power
source that can be turned on and off with the

88

ignition key. If you connect the ignition wire to
a power source with a constant voltage supply,
such as with battery wires, the battery may be
drained.
• If the console has a lid, make sure to install the
unit so that the front panel will not hit the lid
when closing and opening.
• If the fuse blows, first make sure the wires
aren’t touching to cause a short circuit, then
replace the old fuse with one with the same
rating.
• 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.
• Connect the speaker wires correctly to the
terminals to which they correspond. 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). For example, if you connect the ¢
connector of the left speaker to a front output
terminal, do not connect the ¤ connector to
a rear output terminal.
• After the unit is installed, 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.
• This unit has the cooling fan to decrease the
internal temperature. Do not mount the unit
in a place where the cooling fan of the unit is
blocked. Blocking these openings will inhibit
the cooling of the internal temperature and
result in malfunction.

Cooling fan

Connection/Installation
• Do not press hard on the panel surface when
installing the unit to the vehicle. Otherwise
scars, damage, or failure may result.
• Reception may drop if there are metal objects
near the Bluetooth antenna.

■ FCC WARNING

■ IC (Industry Canada) Notice

This equipment may generate or use radio
frequency energy. Changes or modifications to this
equipment may cause harmful interference unless
the modifications are expressly approved in the
instruction manual. The user could lose the authority to
operate this equipment if an unauthorized change or
modification is made.

This device complies with Industry Canada licenceexempt RSS standard(s).
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference, including
interference that may cause undesired operation of
the device.
The term “IC: ” before the certification/ registration
number only signifies that the Industry Canada
technical specification were met.

NOTE
• This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential
installation.
• This equipment may cause harmful interference
to radio communications, if it is not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions.
However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference
to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following
measures:
– Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
– Increase the separation between the
equipment and receiver.
– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a
circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected.
– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.

# CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of
procedures other than those specified herein may result
in hazardous radiation exposure.

# CAUTION
This equipment complies with FCC/IC radiation
exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF)
Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65 and
RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules.
This equipment has very low levels of RF energy that
it deemed to comply without maximum permissive
exposure evaluation (MPE). But it is desirable that it
should be installed and operated keeping the radiator
at least 20cm or more away from person’s body
(excluding extremities: hands, wrists, feet and ankles).
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio
transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a
type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the
transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential
radio interference to other users, the antenna type
and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent
isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than
that necessary for successful communication.
