For DDX771/DDX491HD/DDX471HD/DDX371/ DDX310BT/DDX271: FCC WARNING

This equipment may generate or use radio frequency energy. Changes or modifications to this equipment may cause harmful interference unless the modifications are expressly approved in the instruction manual. The user could lose the authority to operate this equipment if an unauthorized change or modification is made.

FCC NOTE

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.

This equipment may cause harmful interference to radio communications, if it is not installed and used in accordance with the instructions. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

  • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
  • Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
  • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
  • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Cautions on the monitor:

  • The monitor built into this unit has been produced with high precision, but it may have some ineffective dots. This is inevitable and is not considered defective.
  • Do not expose the monitor to direct sunlight.
  • Do not operate the touch panel using a ball-point pen or similar tool with a sharp tip. Touch the buttons on the touch panel with your finger directly (if you are wearing a glove, take it off).
  • When the temperature is very cold or very hot...
  • Chemical changes occur inside, causing malfunction.
  • Pictures may not appear clearly or may move slowly. Pictures may not be synchronized with the sound or picture quality may decline in such environments.

For safety...

  • Do not raise the volume level too much, as this will make driving dangerous by blocking outside sounds, and may cause hearing loss.
  • Stop the car before performing any complicated operations.

Temperature inside the car...

If you have parked the car for a long time in hot or cold weather, wait until the temperature in the car becomes normal before operating the unit.

KENWOOD DDX491HD - Information for using Bluetooth® devices - 1

Bluetooth®

Bluetooth is a short-range wireless radio communication technology for mobile devices such as mobile phones, portable PCs, and other devices. Bluetooth devices can be connected without cables and communicate with each other.

Notes

  • While driving, do not perform complicated operations such as dialing numbers, using the phonebook, etc. When you perform these operations, stop your car in a safe place.
  • Some Bluetooth devices may not connect to this unit depending on the Bluetooth version of the device.
  • This unit may not work for some Bluetooth devices.
  • Connecting conditions may vary depending on your environment.
  • For some Bluetooth devices, the device is disconnected when the unit is turned off.

CONNECTION/INSTALLATION

Before installing the unit

WARNING

  • 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 turn may start a fire. Always connect those wires to the power source running through the fuse box.
  • Do not cut out the fuse from the ignition wire (red) and the battery wire (yellow). The power supply must be connected to the wires via the fuse.

Precautions on installation and connection

  • Mounting and wiring this product requires skills and experience. For best safety, leave the mounting and wiring work to professionals.
    Make sure to ground the unit to a negative 12 V DC power supply.
  • 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 use your own screws. Use only the screws provided. If you use the wrong screws, you could damage the unit.
  • If the power is not turned on ("Miswiring DC Offset Error", "Warning DC Offset Error" is displayed), the speaker wire may have a short circuit or have touched the chassis of the vehicle and the protection function may have been activated. Therefore, the speaker wire should be checked.

  • 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, such as with battery wires, the battery may be drained.
    Only for DDX771:

If the console has a lid, make sure to install the unit so that the monitor panel will not hit the lid when closing and opening.

  • If the fuse blows, first make sure the wires are not 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 both connectors either to the front output terminals or to 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.
    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.
  • Do not press hard on the panel surface when installing the unit to the vehicle. Otherwise scars, damage, or failure may result.

CAUTION

Install this unit in the console of your vehicle. Do not touch the metal part of this unit during and shortly after the use of the unit. Metal parts such as the heat sink and enclosure become hot.

The term "IC:" before the certification/ registration number only signifies that the Industry Canada technical specification were met.

CAUTION

This equipment complies with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65 and RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure

rules. This equipment has very low levels of RF energy that it deemed to comply without maximum permissive exposure evaluation (MPE). But it is desirable that it should be installed and operated keeping the radiator at least 20~cm or more away from person's body (excluding extremities: hands, wrists, feet and ankles).

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.
