IMPORTANT INFORMATION

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THIS UNIT AND CONTROL UNIT. <KDC-C712/C622> � The disc name preset function can register names of up to 100 discs using up to 12 characters for each disc name. The availability of this function as well as the number of discs which can be registered using this function and the number of usable characters may be variable depending on the control unit in use.

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.
