if used at extremely low, or freezing temperatures. The  
ideal ambient temperature is above +5°C (41°F).  
4
7. Heat – The appliance should be situated away from heat  
sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or  
other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.  
1. Power sources – The appliance should be connected to a  
power supply only of the type described in the instruction  
manual or as marked on the appliance. If you are not sure of  
the type of power supply to your home, consult your appliance  
dealer or local power company. For appliances intended to  
operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the  
instruction manual.  
8. Electric shock – Care should be taken so that objects do  
not fall and liquid is not spilled into the enclosure  
through openings. If a metal objects, such as a hair pin  
or a needle, comes into contact with the inside of this  
appliance, a dangerous electric shock may result. For  
families with children, never permit children to put  
anything, especially metal, inside this appliance.  
2. Power-cord protection – Power-supply cords should  
be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or  
pinched by items placed upon or against them, pay  
particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience  
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the  
appliance.  
Never pull or stretch  
the cord.  
9. Enclosure removal – Never remove the enclosure. If  
the internal parts are touched accidentally, a serious  
electric shock might occur.  
3. CAUTION – Polarization – This appliance may be  
equipped with a polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug  
havingonebladewiderthantheother).Thisplugwillfitintothe  
power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are  
unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the  
plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to  
replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose  
of the polarized plug.  
10.Magnetic fields – Keep the appliance away from sources  
of magnetic fields such as TV sets, speaker systems,  
radios, motorized toys or magnetized objects.  
4. Ventilation – Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided  
for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the appliance

KAF-3030R/1030 (En)  
13.Lightning – For added protection for this appliance during a  
lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for  
long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and  
disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent  
damage to the appliance due to lightning and power-line  
surges.  
18.Power lines – An outside antenna system should not be  
located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric  
lightorpowercircuits, orwhereitcanfallintosuchpowerlines  
orcircuits.Wheninstallinganoutsideantennasystem,extreme  
care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines  
or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.  
5
14.Abnormal smell – If an abnormal smell or smoke is  
detected, immediately turn the power OFF and unplug  
the appliance from the wall outlet. Contact your dealer or  
nearest service center.  
19.AC outlets – Do not connect other audio equipment  
with a power consumption larger than that specified to  
the AC outlet on the rear panel. Never connect other  
electrical appliances, such as an iron or toaster, to it to  
prevent fire or electric shock.  
15.Damage requiring service – The appliance should be  
serviced by qualified service personnel when:  
A. The power-supply cord or the plug has been  
damaged.  
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into

SYSTEM CONTROL CONNECTIONS  
Connecting system control cords after connecting a KENWOOD  
audio component system lets you take advantage of conve-  
nient system control operations.  
This unit is compatible only with the [SL16] mode. The sys-  
tem control operation is not available if the unit is connected  
in the [XS-8] connection mode.  
Note  
Adv. DA / CD inputs:  
For SYSTEM CONTROL connection of a CD player.  
MD / CD-R inputs:  
For SYSTEM CONTROL connection of an MD player.  
• Do this operation after completing all connections.  
(Ensure that the power plug is not connected.)  
1. [SL16] equipment cannot be combined with [XR], [XS], and [XS8] equipment for  
system operations. If your equipment consists of this kind of combination, please  
NNootteess  
do not connect any system control cords, Even without system control cords,  
normal operations can be carried out without affecting performance.  
2. If your amp or receiver does not have a system control terminal, do not connect  
any system control cords to the system control terminals on the other compo-  
nents.  
3. Do not connect system control cords to any components other than those speci-  
fied by KENWOOD. It may cause a malfunction and damage your equipment.  
4. Be sure the system control plugs are inserted all the way in to the system control  
terminals.  
The system control operations  
Remote Control  
The remote control supplied with this unit can also be used to control the other components in the system.  
Automatic Operation (except [XR] and [XS-8] equipment)  
When you start playback from a source component, the input selector on this unit switches to that component  
automatically.  
Synchronized Recording (except [XR] and [XS-8] equipment)  
Lets you synchronize recording with the start of playback when recording from CD or MD.

4 Secure.  
Never short-circuit the + and – speaker cords.  
If the left and right speakers are connected inversely or if the  
speaker cords are connected with reversed polarity, the sound  
becomes unnatural with ambiguous acoustic image positioning.  
Be sure to connect the speakers and speaker cords correctly.  
Speaker impedance  
When only one pair of speakers is connected to A or B speaker terminals, use the speakers having an impedance of 4 to  
16 .  
When two pairs of speakers are connected to both A and B terminals simultaneously, use the speakers having an  
impedance of 8 to 16 . In this case, connecting a speaker having an impedance of less than 8 may cause malfunction  
of the amplifier.  
1 Connect all cords firmly. If connections are loose, there could be loss of sound or noise produced.  
2. When plugging and unplugging connection cords, be sure to first remove the power cord from the AC outlet. Plugging/unplugging  
connection cords without removal of the power cord can cause malfunctions or damage to the unit.  
3 Do not connect up a power source which is larger than that indicated on the socket at the rear of the unit.

Operating range  
(approx.)  
1. The supplied batteries are intended for use in operation checks. Therefore, their lives may be shorter than ordinary batteries.  
2. When the remote-controllable distance gets shorter than before, replace both batteries with new ones.  
3. Malfunction may occur if direct sunlight or the light of a high-frequency lighting fluorescent lamp enters the remote control light  
sensor. In such a case, change the system installation position to prevent the malfunction.
