to direct sunlight, high heat or humidity,

only for this unit.
Do Not Use CDs with Sticker on the

· Do not use the CD with the label sticker stuck
on it.
Using such a CD may cause the CD to be
deformed and the sticker to peel off, resulting

Cleaning the unit
· If the front panel is dirty, wipe it clean with a
silicon cloth or soft dry cloth with the power

Do not use hard cloths or paint thinner,
alcohol, or other volatile solvents. These may
damage external surfaces or remove indicator

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
CD player fogs up. If this happens, you
cannot play compact discs. Take out discs
and the fogging will disappear. If it does not
return to normal after several hours, contact
your Kenwood dealer.
Heat protection
· In warm climates, when vehicles are left
standing in direct sunlight with the windows
closed, the temperature inside can rise above
60°C. The unit's protection circuits will then
display the message "HOLD" and prevent the
player from operating. Just open the
windows or turn on the air conditioning. As
soon as the "HOLD" message disappears, the
player will operate normally.
