Safety Precautions
- English
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 wires or
other wires with an area of 0.75mm2 (AWG18) or more 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
· 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 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 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.
If you experience problems during installation, consult your Kenwood dealer.

power source that can be turned on and off with the ignition key. If you connect the ignition
wire to a power source that receives a constant voltage supply, as with battery wires, the
battery may die.
· If the fuse blows, first make sure that the wires have not caused a short circuit, then replace
the old fuse with one with the same rating.
· Do not let unconnected wires or terminals touch metal on the car or anything else
