Safety precautions  
IMPORTANT INFORMATION  
2WARNING  
2CAUTION  
About CD players/disc changers  
To prevent injury or fire, take the  
following 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 0.75mm2  
(AWG18) or more to prevent wire  
deterioration 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.  
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.  
• Do not set the removed faceplate or the  
faceplate case in areas exposed to direct  
sunlight, excessive heat or humidity. Also  
avoid places with too much dust or the  
possibility of water splashing.  
To prevent deterioration, do not touch the  
terminals of the unit or faceplate with your  
fingers.  
connected to this unit  
KENWOOD disc changers/ CD players  
released in 1998 or later can be connected to  
this unit.  
Refer to the catalog or consult your Kenwood  
dealer for connectable models of disc  
changers/ CD players.  
Note that any KENWOOD disc changers/ CD  
players released in 1997 or earlier and disc  
changers made by other makers cannot be  
connected to this unit.  
Unsupported connection may result in  
damage.  
Setting the "O-N" Switch to the "N" position for  
the applicable KENWOOD disc changers/ CD  
players.  
• If the unit starts to emit smoke or strange  
smells, turn off the power immediately and  
consult your Kenwood dealer.  
• Make sure not to get your fingers caught  
between the faceplate and the unit.  
The functions that can be used and the  
information that can be displayed will differ  
depending on the models being connected.  
• Do not subject the faceplate to excessive  
shock, as it is a piece of precision  
equipment.  
You can damage both your unit and the CD  
changer if you connect them incorrectly.  
• Be careful not to drop the unit or subject it to  
strong shock.  
The unit may break or crack because it  
contains glass parts.  
• 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.  
• 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 a short circuit when replacing a  
fuse, first disconnect the wiring harness.  
• Do not place any object between the  
faceplate and the unit.  
• Do not use your own screws. Use only the  
screws provided. If you use the wrong  
screws, you could damage the unit.  
Do Not Load 3-in. CDs in the CD slot  
If you try to load a 3 in. CD with its adapter  
into the unit, the adapter might separate from  
the CD and damage the unit.

Cleaning the Faceplate Terminals  
If the terminals on the unit or faceplate get  
dirty, wipe them with a dry, soft cloth.  
Cleaning the CD Slot  
NOTE  
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.  
• If you experience problems during  
installation, consult your Kenwood dealer.  
• If the unit does not seem to be working  
right, try pressing the reset button first. If  
that does not solve the problem, consult  
your Kenwood dealer.  
• Press the reset button if the Disc auto  
changer fails to operate correctly. Normal  
operation should be restored.  
Cleaning the Unit  
If the faceplate of this unit is stained, wipe it  
with a dry soft cloth such as a silicon cloth.  
If the faceplate is stained badly, wipe the stain  
off with a cloth moistened with neutral  
cleaner, then wipe neutral detergent off.  
Applying spray cleaner directly to the unit may  
affect its mechanical parts. Wiping the  
faceplate with a hard cloth or using a volatile  
liquid such as thinner or alcohol may scratch  
the surface or erases characters.

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.

LASER PRODUCT  
• The illustrations of the display and the panel  
appearing in this manual are examples used  
to explain more clearly how the controls are  
used. Therefore, what appears on the display  
in the illustrations may differ from what  
appears on the display on the actual  
equipment, and some of the illustrations on  
the display may represent something  
impossible in actual operation.  
The label is attached to the chassis/case and  
says that the component uses laser beams  
that have been classified as Class 1. It  
means that the unit is utilizing laser beams  
that are of a weaker class. There is no  
danger of hazardous radiation outside the  
unit.

If you connect the ignition wire (red) and the battery wire (yellow)  
to the car chassis (ground), you may cause a short circuit, that in

2CAUTION  
• If your car's ignition does not have an ACC position, connect the  
ignition wires to a power source that can be turned on and off  
with the ignition key. If you connect the ignition wire to a power  
source with a constant voltage supply, as with battery wires, the  
battery may die.  
• If the console has a lid, make sure to install the unit so that the  
faceplate will not hit the lid when closing and opening.  
• If the fuse blows, first make sure the wires aren’t touching to  
cause a short circuit, then replace the old fuse with one with the  
same rating.  
• Insulate unconnected wires with vinyl tape or other similar  
material. To prevent a short circuit, do not remove the caps on  
the ends of the unconnected wires or the terminals.  
• Connect the speaker wires correctly to the terminals to which  
they correspond. The unit may be damaged or fail to work if you  
share the - wires or ground them to any metal part in the car.  
• When only two speakers are being connected to the system,  
connect the connectors either to both the front output terminals  
or to both the rear output terminals (do not mix front and rear).  
For example, if you connect the + connector of the left speaker  
to a front output terminal, do not connect the - connector to a  
rear output terminal

(KDC-3026/KDC-2026/KDC-226 only)  
The use of any accessories except for those provided might result in  
damage to the unit. Make sure only to use the accessories shipped with  
the unit, as shown above.  
Installation Procedure  
1. To prevent a short circuit, remove the key from the ignition and  
disconnect the - battery.  
2. Make the proper input and output wire connections for each unit.  
3. Connect the speaker wires of the wiring harness.  
• After the unit is installed, check whether the brake lamps,  
blinkers, wipers, etc. on the car are working properly.  
• Mount the unit so that the mounting angle is 30° or less.  
4. Connect the wiring harness wires in the following order: ground,  
battery, ignition.  
5. Connect the wiring harness connector to the unit.  
6. Install the unit in your car.  
7. Reconnect the - battery.
