Installing the Antenna Units
Incar antennas have a lower reception sensitivity than antennas intended for outside mounting. The picture may not appear or may be disturbed if the signal in your area is weak.
Attach the antenna to the inner glass surface of the rear window using double-sided tape. Carefully check the installation location as the tape can only be stuck on once. If the surface temperature of the glass of the rear window is low, warm it by turning on the power of the rear defogger. A cold window glass surface will weaken the adhesive strength of the double-sided tape. Also, if installation inside the cabin is performed on a day with high humidity or when it is raining, the high humidity level will weaken the adhesive strength of the doublesided tape. Do not install the antenna in a location where it may obstruct the field of view during driving, such as on the windshield.
1 Check the location where the antenna is to be
attached.Clean off any grease or dirt from the installation location using the supplied glass cleaner (Accessory B), clean the area with water and allow to dry.

Antenna parts

Antenna unit
Clean the glass thoroughly as failure to clean the glass can not only weaken the adhesive strength of the double-sided tape, but may also cause it to come loose.
2 Remove the protective strips from the antenna
parts and the back of the antenna unit.
3 Attach the double-sided tape of the antenna
parts and the antenna unit to the rear windshield glass. Attach the double-sided tape by firmly pressing down from the top. Secure cables using the supplied clampers.
Bundle cables with the clamper bar

Rear window

4 After attaching the antenna with the doublesided tape, allow it to sit undisturbed for 24 hours. Take care not to apply force to the antenna or allow it to get wet during this time.
5 Wire the antenna cable to TV tuner unit.

Rear seat

Connection

Make sure to ground the unit to a negative 12V DC power supply. If your car's ignition does not come with 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 that receives a constant voltage supply, as with battery wires, the battery may die. If the fuse blows, first make sure that the wires have not caused a short circuit, then replace the old fuse with one with the same rating. After the unit is installed, check whether the brake lamps, blinkers, wipers, etc. on the car are working properly.

Installation

Accessories
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 short circuits, remove the key from the ignition and disconnect the - terminal of the battery. 2. Make the proper input and output cable connections for each unit. 3. Connect the speaker cables of the wiring harness. 4. Take Connector B on the wiring harness and connect it to the speaker connector in your vehicle. 5. Take Connector A on the wiring harness and connect it to the external power connector on your vehicle. 6. Install the unit in your car. 7. Reconnect the - terminal of the battery. 8. Press the reset button. If your car is not prepared for this special connection-system, consult your KENWOOD dealer. Only use antenna conversion adapters (ISO-JASO) when the antenna cord has an ISO plug. Make sure that all cable connections are securely made by inserting jacks until they lock completely. If your vehicle's ignition does not have an ACC position, or if the ignition cable is connected to a power source with constant voltage such as a battery cable, the power will not be linked with the ignition (i.e., it will not turn on and off along with the ignition). If you want to link the unit's power with the ignition, connect the ignition cable to a power source that can be turned on and off with the ignition key. If the fuse blows, first make sure that the cables have not caused a short circuit, then replace the old fuse with one with the same rating. Do not let unconnected cables or terminals touch metal on the car or anything else conducting electricity. To prevent short circuits do not remove the caps from unused terminals or from the ends of the unconnected cables. Connect the speaker cables correctly to the terminals to which they correspond. The unit may receive damage or fail to work if you share the cables and/or ground them to any metal part in the car. After the unit is installed, check whether the brake lamps, blinkers, wipers, etc. on the car are working properly. Insulate unconnected cables with vinyl tape or other similar material. During use, the surface temperature of this unit will become high, therefore it should not be mounted where anything sensitive to the heat, such as people or resins, would come into contact with it. Do not install the unit under the carpet. Otherwise heat build-up occurs and the unit may be damaged. Install this unit in a location which allows heat to easily dissipate. Once installed, do not place any object on top of the unit. Install the unit securely in a location that does not interfere with driving. Mount the monitor unit so that the mounting angle is 30 or less.

Page 39

Installation for Monitor Unit
When mounting the main unit after checking the operation, close the monitor first. Make sure that the unit is installed securely in place. If the unit is unstable, it may malfunction.
Firewall or metal support Metal mounting strap (commercially available)
Screw (M4X6) (commercially available) Self-tapping screw (commercially available)
Bend the tabs of the mounting sleeve with a screwdriver or similar utensil and attach it in place.
Move the fittings on both sides to suit the installation chassis and select the embedding position from among the 3 positions.( :Fixing screw) When the fittings are set closest to the front (i.e., the embedding position is farthest back), use the hard rubber frame (Accessory F).
