Safety precautions
• If you experience problems during
installation, consult your Kenwood dealer.
• If the unit fails to operate properly, press the
RESET button. When the faceplate is not
visible, slide the manual open switch (as
illustrated on p.6) for as many times as you
have preset to make the faceplate control
appear. The unit returns to factory settings
when the RESET button is pressed. If the
unit still fails to operate properly after the
RESET button has been pressed, contact
your local KENWOOD dealer for assistance.
• Press the reset button if the CD auto changer
is first controlled and operates incorrectly.
The original operating condition will return.
Cleaning the Unit
If the front panel gets dirty, turn off the
power and wipe the panel with a dry silicon
cloth or soft cloth.
Do not wipe the panel with a stiff cloth or a
cloth dampened by volatile solvents such as
paint thinner and alcohol. They can scratch
the surface of the panel and/or cause the
indicator letters to peel off.

Handling Mini discs
• The MD shutter is designed so that it cannot
be opened. If forced open, the cartridge will
be damaged and use of the MD will no
longer be possible. If the shutter has been
opened due to some cause, be careful not to
touch the recording portion with a finger.
Doing so will cause the sound to skip.
• Do not use an MD that has a peeling label.
Use of an MD that has a loose or peeling
label may cause problems, such as the label
coming off inside the player and the resultant
inability to eject the MD.
• Wipe away dirt or dust from the cartridge
surface with a dry cloth before use. Using an
oil-soiled cartridge in particular may result in
the disc not loading or being unable to eject
it. (At time of cleaning, be careful not to open
the shutter.)
• Do not leave the MD in the unit for a
prolonged period. The ejected MD should be
placed in an MD case for storage.
• Do not leave the MD in a place exposed to
direct sunlight (such as on a instrument
panel) or in other places that reach high
temperatures. The MD cartridge will become
misshapen and will no longer be usable.
• MDs designed for use with data cannot be
used. Please use MDs designed for music.
• Do not use lens cleaners. Doing so will lead
to breakdown.
Mask key
If you have transmitted the Mask Key's signal
once to the unit in advance, you will have to
transmit it once again if the unit has been
removed from the battery. This function
helps prevent theft.
When using the unit for the first time:
In order to deactivate the demonstration
mode, be sure to press the transmit button
to transmit the Mask Key's signal.
If this procedure is not carried out, the
control panel of the unit will re-open in two
seconds even with your vehicle's ignition
turned off.
Do not loose the "Mask Key".
If power is disconnected from the unit,
correct operation can only be restored by the
"Mask Key's" signal.
The "Mask Key" will also be required for
service repair.
If you send products in for repair that include
a mask key, make sure to present the unit
together with the mask key.
Lens Fogging
In cold climates, there may be a period after
you turn on your vehicle's heater when the
lens that guides the laser beam used in your
MD player fogs up. If this happens, you
cannot play mini discs. Take out discs and
the fogging will disappear. If it does not
return to normal after several hours, contact
your Kenwood dealer.
