20 Most Recent Kenwood KNA-G510 GPS Receiver Questions & Answers

I'm quite sure you need to purchase the 2009 City Navigator SD card to update the maps. That what I did last year to get the 2008 City Navigator maps. You will need to leave the SD card in the unit to use the new maps though..

I haven't been able to determine whether it's possible to update the actual install map on the device. I'm guessing it's possible but would require a computer and an map update to write directly to the device. If I find steps to update the installed maps, I will post them here.

1. Delete your phone from the Bluetooth memory of the receiver. (Page 40-41 of the manual)
2. If possible, unpair/delete the receiver from your phone's memory.
3. Reset the receiver. (The reset button is to the left of the CD Eject button. It's triangle shaped)
4. Reboot your phone.

Once you've done that, re-pair the phone and test it out.

After contacting Kenwood tech support several times, a tech finally came out and said if the unit is under warranty send it back to them and they will swap it since they do not repair it. If the Unit is out of warranty, then contact Garmin. When I contacted Garmin, the tech stated that Kenwood is pulling a fast one instead of standing behind their product. So who actually owns this product Kenwood or Garmin? Both names are on the product, but no one wants to repair it. Anyway to make a long story short there is a new update for this product 3.60 as of Feb 2008, downloaded and the unit works fine. Should resolve this issue.

I have the same problem, did anyone get to fix it?

If you were to buy and use this system in the US there would be no problem, but you encounter difficulties when trying to use in europe or Australia. The unit would have to be modified in order to use navigation, dvd playback and radio functions. Only specialized audio outlets would be able to carry out this modification at a cost to you. Usually the cost would be around $40 for the service but as I am from the UK I am not sure who would be able to do this for you, possibly the supplier if it is not direct from Kenwood.

I hope this helps

post your question and we will help you the best we can thank!

try updating your software to the latest version:

there are several components connections and setting that would need to be tested your best bet at this point is to go into a car audio/accessory installation store tell them your qualm and how you believe you may have been taken advantage of most of the time they will offer to help at a minimal cost in the hopes any fursther purchases will be done through them


Hope I helped

You get an iPod FM transmitter & connect it to your iPod and set to a free channel, press play on iPod. Then tune it in on your car stereo.
