If you have an amplifier connected to the radio, make sure the amp remote wire is connected to the blue/white wire and not the blue wire of the radio. The blue wire is for power antenna and is energized only when tuner is playing, not when cd or ext media is played, and therefore will shut your amp off when playing those sources.

They're the wires marked "AUX IN" coming out of the back of the unit. See the wiring diagram on page 55 of the manual.

Try putting the unit in standby via the "SRC" button FIRST..., then press the menu button and cycle through to the "AUX 1" option and activate this....then press menu button again. When the unit is next switched on, you should have an "AUX" option accessible via the "SRC" button which will cycle through all of the availale modes ....standby-tuner-cd-aux etc etc.

Follow the instructions on page 42 of the manual.

Here is the instruction manual,

You will need to visit an Authorized Dealer or service center for that product to get the unlock code reset. You can find a dealer listing on their website, or call them.

contact kenwood with model no, and id no. off head unit casing they can give you the code to unlock.or if you have instruction manual that came with the head unit it might be in there.if not best buy will handle this problem,for a price.dont be shocked if kenwood does the same.after all its all about the money.ps if you feel that this head unit was stolen sometime in the past,and it was reported to kenwood,they will know .just to let you know.good luck.

try cleaning the face of the disc before you insert it,if it continues to do this,you have to check it with an engineer because this might require replacement of some internal mechanisms

On the link below on page 42 will tell you how to set the clock. As for the loud function I could not find it.
