A Warning
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ ve just
purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now
it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excite-
ment your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the
Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics
Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by
playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through
loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion — and,
most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort
level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds
“normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level
BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
¢ Start your volume control at a low setting.
¢ Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably
and clearly, and without distortion.
Once
you
have
established
a
comfortable
sound
level:
* Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing
damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening
for a lifetime.
We Want You Listening For A Lifetime
Used
wisely,
your
new
sound
equipment
will
provide
a
lifetime
of
fun
and
enjoyment.
Since
hearing
damage
from
loud
noise
is
often
undetectable
until
it is
too
late,
this
manufacturer
and
the
Electronic
Industries
Association’s
Consumer
Electronics
Group
recommend
you
avoid
prolonged
exposure
to
excessive
noise.
This
list
of
sound
levels
is
included
for
your
protection.

Safety precautions
AWARNING
To prevent injury or fire, take the fol-
lowing precautions:
* Insert the unit all the way in until it is fully
locked in place. Otherwise it may fall out of
place when jolted.
¢ When extending the ignition, battery, or
ground wires, make sure to use automotive-
grade wires or other wires with a 0.75mm?
(AWG 18) or more to prevent wire deteriora-
tion and damage to the wire coating.
* To prevent a short circuit, never put or leave
any metallic objects (such as 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.
* Be careful not to drop the unit or subject it to
strong shock.
The unit may break or crack because it con-
tains glass parts.
* Do not touch the liquid crystal fluid if the LCD
is damaged or broken due to shock. The lia-
uid crystal fluid may be dangerous to your
health or even fatal.
If the liquid crystal fluid from the LCD con-
tacts your body or clothing, wash it off with
soap immediately.
ACAUTION
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.
* 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 mal-
function.
* To prevent a short circuit when replacing a
fuse, first disconnect the wiring harness.
* Do not use your own screws. Use only the
screws provided. If you use the wrong
screws, you could damage the unit.
For KDC-4009/S3009
* Do not set the removed faceplate or the
faceplate case in areas exposed to direct sun-
light, 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.
* To prevent deterioration, do not touch the
terminals of the unit or faceplate with your
fingers.

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.
ACAUTION
Do not wipe the panel with a hard 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.
Cleaning the Faceplate Terminals
(For KDC-4009/S3009)
If the terminals on the unit or faceplate get
dirty, wipe them with a dry, soft cloth.
Cleaning the CD Slot
As dust tends to accumulate in the CD slot,
clean it every once in a while. Your CDs can
get scratched if you put them in a dusty CD
slot.
Lens Fogging
Right after you turn on the car heater in cold
weather, dew or condensation may form on
the lens in the CD player of the unit. Called
lens fogging, CDs may be impossible 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.
