I just bought a 2001 Boxster and a previous owner had installed this in place of the factory stereo system. However, I still have the Porsche CDC-3 CD changer in the frunk (front trunk). can I hook the changer to this unit?
Can you please tell me how to regain the sound on my gps on my Kenwood dnx694s? The gps still works but the lady stopped talking and giving instructions. Thanks.
the 893 has a camera button on the front of unit so you can go right to the front camera. I didn't see one on the 693 does it have a button that takes you right to the camera?

I know you said don't ask (about disabling at least), but am I correct in that every aftermarket headunit with GPS will have one of those health and safety warnings that you need to acknowledge at startup? I think I've read elsewhere that if you were to shift into reverse prior to closing the message it will hide the message and show your camera image so you can reverse, then pop the message back up when you shift back out of reverse - is that the case on the DNX693s? Thanks!

js290 yes the 7" issue is something Android is firm about. They are both 800 by 480, but the smaller resistive screens have fewer points of touch compared to the 7"( I know it's only a 1/2 inch, sad) At first Android was only going to let capacitive touch screens have AA but changed because there are so few. Rumors is they are working on a version for the smaller screens, we can only wait and see.
With NAV on and music playing. How do I get the NAV to lower/mute the music when giving turn by turn directions? Currently, the system doesn't auto low/mute even with the NAV mute option on.
Not to sound stupid,but that message that pops up everytime would drive me nuts.Since this video is about 8 months do you know if kenwood makes one like this now that you do not have to turn the message off everyitime yet.
I didn't get one of this years because of that message that pops up and you have to puch to turn off everytime you start the car.Next years will not have this problem so im waiting.
there is no counter right? I got this model.. and I have absolutely no idea where in a song I am. this is the only car sterio ive ever seen where I cant see.a timer to scan 5 mins into a song.. or.podcast.. thats kind of important to me.. unless I missed the counter somehow???
R0tten get a radio with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. The built in gps is great for long drives. Highways very rarely change, so the built in maps rarely needs updates. Use your phone for local drivers.
Five Star Car Stereo how do you set up pandora with this radio I tried plugging my phone in to the USB port but it says disconnected when I click on the pandora app within the radio
Please show us how to change the boot up logo on the DNX693S. Thanks in advance.

Matt Turner the reverse thing is correct, it will go away and come back. The Pioneer NEX radios "ok" screen auto goes away after 7 seconds.

6:35 Android Auto requires larger screen? Models with 7" screen has same 800x480 resolution.
js290 yes the 7" issue is something Android is firm about.

Gary-Alex Gomez try going into the Nav menu and restoring the navigation to factory default.
@FiveStar Car Stero
The factory restore didn't fix the problem. Do you know if this a fault of the system?
Gary-Alex Gomez look on page 12 bottom of the page
manual.kenwood.com/en_contents/attachDownload/85265
did you mean pg.21?
Gary-Alex Gomez there was an audio setting on page 12

Does the GPS work without the extra antenna thing?
Francisco Gonzalez no you need the antenna, in most cars you can mount it under the dash plastic.

Is the GPS free?
R0tten there is no monthly fee for gps. Garmin does charge for updates.
Five Star Car Stereo thank you! Do you have a suggestion for a receiver that has free lifetime map updates?
R0tten get a radio with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. The built in gps is great for long drives. Highways very rarely change, so the built in maps rarely needs updates. Use your phone for local drivers.
