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

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)

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.
2WARNINGS
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 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.
2CAUTIONS
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.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Ñ 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.
Ñ 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
incomplete data. In some countries, complete and
accurate map information is either not available or is
prohibitively expensive.
