Operating Instructions
PRECAUTIONS
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
FCC COMPLIANCE STATEMENT
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of
the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide more
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation, and are more stringent than
“outdoor” requirements.
Operation is subjected to the following two conditions: (1)
This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, you are
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the
following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the
receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult an experienced radio/TV technician.

and operation. Following are the meanings of these
pictorial displays. It is important to fully understand the
meanings of these pictorial displays in order to use this
manual and the system properly.

Please follow all usage instructions and warnings when
using this product at all times. Do not use this product or
any software application in a manner which will hinder
safe operation of your vehicle.
WARNING
• Operation of the system while driving is dangerous.
Users should stop vehicle before operating the

• Road conditions and regulations take precedence
over information contained on the map display:
observe actual traffic restrictions and circumstances
while driving.
• This software is designed for use exclusively in the
unit. It cannot and may not be used in conjunction
with other hardware.
WARNING
This symbol means important instructions.
Failure to heed them can result in serious injury
or death.
INSTALL THE PRODUCT CORRECTLY SO THAT THE
DRIVER CANNOT WATCH TV/VIDEO UNLESS THE
VEHICLE IS STOPPED AND THE PARKING BRAKE IS
APPLIED.
It is dangerous for the driver to watch TV/Video while
driving a vehicle. Installing this product incorrectly enables
the driver to watch TV/Video while driving. This may cause a
distraction, preventing the driver from looking ahead, thus
causing an accident. The driver or other people could be
severely injured.
DO NOT WATCH VIDEO WHILE DRIVING.
Watching the video may distract the driver from looking
ahead of the vehicle and cause an accident.
DO NOT OPERATE ANY FUNCTION THAT TAKES YOUR
ATTENTION AWAY FROM SAFELY DRIVING YOUR
VEHICLE.
Any function that requires your prolonged attention should
only be performed after coming to a complete stop. Always
stop the vehicle in a safe location before performing these
functions. Failure to do so may result in an accident.
KEEP THE VOLUME AT A LEVEL WHERE YOU CAN STILL
HEAR OUTSIDE NOISES WHILE DRIVING.
Excessive volume levels that obscure sounds such as
emergency vehicle sirens or road warning signals (train
crossings, etc.) can be dangerous and may result in an
accident. LISTENING AT LOUD VOLUME LEVELS IN A CAR
MAY ALSO CAUSE HEARING DAMAGE.
8-EN
MINIMIZE DISPLAY VIEWING WHILE DRIVING.
Viewing the display may distract the driver from looking
ahead of the vehicle and cause an accident.
DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR ALTER.
Doing so may result in an accident, fire or electric shock.
USE ONLY IN CARS WITH A 12 VOLT NEGATIVE GROUND.
(Check with your dealer if you are not sure.) Failure to do so
may result in fire, etc.
KEEP SMALL OBJECTS SUCH AS SCREWS OUT OF THE
REACH OF CHILDREN.
Swallowing them may result in serious injury. If swallowed,
consult a physician immediately.
USE THE CORRECT AMPERE RATING WHEN REPLACING
FUSES.
Failure to do so may result in fire or electric shock.
DO NOT BLOCK VENTS OR RADIATOR PANELS.
Doing so may cause heat to build up inside and may result
in fire.
USE THIS PRODUCT FOR MOBILE 12V APPLICATIONS.
Use for other than its designed application may result in
fire, electric shock or other injury.
MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS.
Failure to make the proper connections may result in fire or
product damage.
BEFORE WIRING, DISCONNECT THE CABLE FROM THE
NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL.
Failure to do so may result in electric shock or injury due to
electrical shorts.
DO NOT ALLOW CABLES TO BECOME ENTANGLED IN
SURROUNDING OBJECTS.
Arrange wiring and cables in compliance with the manual
to prevent obstructions when driving. Cables or wiring that
obstruct or hang up on places such as the steering wheel,
gear lever, brake pedals, etc. can be extremely hazardous.
DO NOT SPLICE INTO ELECTRICAL CABLES.
Never cut away cable insulation to supply power to other
equipment. Doing so will exceed the current carrying
capacity of the wire and result in fire or electric shock.
DO NOT DAMAGE PIPE OR WIRING WHEN DRILLING
HOLES.
When drilling holes in the chassis for installation, take
precautions so as not to contact, damage or obstruct pipes,
fuel lines, tanks or electrical wiring. Failure to take such
precautions may result in fire.
DO NOT USE BOLTS OR NUTS IN THE BRAKE OR
STEERING SYSTEMS TO MAKE GROUND CONNECTIONS.
Bolts or nuts used for the brake or steering systems (or any
other safety-related system), or tanks should NEVER be used
for installations or ground connections. Using such parts
could disable control of the vehicle and cause fire etc.
DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WHICH MIGHT HINDER
VEHICLE OPERATION, SUCH AS THE STEERING WHEEL
OR GEARSHIFT.
Doing so may obstruct forward vision or hamper movement
etc. and results in serious accident.
CAUTION
This symbol means important instructions.
Failure to heed them can result in injury or
material property damage.
HALT USE IMMEDIATELY IF A PROBLEM APPEARS.
Failure to do so may cause personal injury or damage to the
product. Return it to your authorized Alpine dealer or the
nearest Alpine Service Center for repairing.
HAVE THE WIRING AND INSTALLATION DONE BY
EXPERTS.
The wiring and installation of this unit requires special
technical skill and experience. To ensure safety, always
contact the dealer where you purchased this product to
have the work done.
USE SPECIFIED ACCESSORY PARTS AND INSTALL THEM
SECURELY.
Be sure to use only the specified accessory parts. Use of
other than designated parts may damage this unit
internally or may not securely install the unit in place. This
may cause parts to become loose resulting in hazards or
product failure.
ARRANGE THE WIRING SO IT IS NOT CRIMPED OR
PINCHED BY A SHARP METAL EDGE.
Route the cables and wiring away from moving parts (like
the seat rails) or sharp or pointed edges. This will prevent
crimping and damage to the wiring. If wiring passes
through a hole in metal, use a rubber grommet to prevent
the wire’s insulation from being cut by the metal edge of
the hole.
DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WITH HIGH MOISTURE
OR DUST.
Avoid installing the unit in locations with high incidence of
moisture or dust. Moisture or dust that penetrates into this
unit may result in product failure.

About the Crossover
Crossover (X-Over):
This unit is equipped with an active crossover. The crossover
limits the frequencies delivered to the outputs. Each
channel is controlled independently. Thus, each speaker
pair can be driven by the frequencies for which they have
been optimally designed.
The crossover adjusts the HPF (high pass filter) or LPF (low
pass filter) of each band, and also the slope (how fast the
filter rolls off the highs or lows).
Adjustments should be made according to the
reproduction characteristics of the speakers. Depending on
the speakers, a passive network may not be necessary. If
you are unsure about this point, please consult your
authorized Alpine dealer.

• HPF (high pass filter): Cuts the lower frequencies and allows
the higher frequencies to pass.
• LPF (low pass filter): Cuts the higher frequencies and allows
the lower frequencies to pass.
• Slope: The level change (in dB) for a frequency change of one
octave.
• The higher the slope value, the steeper the slope becomes.
• Adjust the slope to FLAT to bypass the HP or LP filters.
• Do not use a tweeter without the HPF on or set to a low
frequency, as it may cause damage to the speaker due to the
low frequency content.
• Adjustment should be made according to the recommended
crossover frequency of the connected speakers. Determine the
recommended crossover frequency of the speakers. Adjusting
to a frequency range outside that recommended may cause
damage to the speakers.
For the recommended crossover frequencies of Alpine
speakers, refer to the respective Owner’s Manual.
We are not responsible for damage or malfunction of speakers
caused by using the crossover outside the recommended value.
About Time Correction
The distance between the listener and the speakers in a car
vary widely due to the complex speaker placement. This
difference in the distances from the speakers to the listener
creates a shift in the sounds image and frequency
characteristics. This is caused by the time delay between the
sound reaching the listener’s right versus the left ear.
To correct this, this unit is able to delay the audio signal to
the speakers closest to the listener. This effectively creates a
perception of increased distance for those speakers. The
listener can be placed at an equal distance between the left
and right speakers for optimum staging.
The adjustment will be made for each speaker in 0.02 ms
steps.
Example 1. Listening Position: Front
Left Seat
Adjust the time correction level of the front left speaker to a
high value and the rear right to zero or a low value.
The sound is not balanced because the distance between
the listening position and the various speakers is different.
The difference in distance between the front left speaker
and the rear right speaker is 1.75 m (68-7/8”).
Here we calculate the time correction value for the front left
speaker in the diagram on the above.
Conditions:
Farthest Speaker – listening position : 2.25 m (88-9/16”)
Front left speaker – listening position : 0.5 m (19-11/16”)
Calculation: L = 2.25 m – 0.5 m = 1.75 m (68-7/8”)
Time correction = 1.75 ÷ 343* × 1,000 = 5.10 (ms)
∗ Speed of sound: 343 m/s (765 mph) at 20°C
37-EN
In other words, giving the front left speaker a time
correction value of 5.1 ms makes it seem as if its distance
from the listener is the same as the distance to the farthest
speaker.
Time correction eliminates the differences in the time
required for the sound to reach the listening position.
The time of the front left speaker is corrected by 5.1 ms so
that its sound reaches the listening position at the same
time as the sound of other speakers.
Example 2. Listening Position: All
Seats
Adjust the time correction level of each speaker to almost
the same level.
1 Sit in the listening position (driver’s seat, etc.)
and measure the distance (in meters)
between your head and the various speakers.
2 Calculate the difference between the distance
correction value to the farthest speaker and
the other speakers.
L = (distance to farthest speaker) – (distance to other
speakers)
These values are the time correction values for the
different speakers. Setting these values to make each
sound reach the listening position at the same time as
the sound of other speakers.

Indication mark meaning
When the car is put into reverse gear, the monitor switches
to the rear view camera image. Guides appear to help
visualize the car’s width and distance from the rear bumper.
Car width extension lines (red, yellow and
green in order of distance)
If properly calibrated, the marks indicate the car’s width.
This helps guide the car’s path when backing up in a
straight line.
The marks represent the distance from the rear of the
car (from the rear end of the bumper).
• The marks do not move in synchronization with the
steering wheel.
• Set the marks to suit the car’s width.
Distance guidance lines
The marks represent the distance from the rear of the
car (from the rear end of the bumper).
• The marks do not move in synchronization with the
steering wheel.
• We recommend that you measure the actual distance
to the marks when parked on a level surface.
• Depending on the condition of the car or road surface, the
range of vision may vary.
• The camera has a limited range of vision. Objects at extreme
angles to the camera (e.g. under the bumper or at opposite
ends of the bumper) may not be in the its field-of-vision.
• The rear camera image may have a tint which is different
from the actual surroundings.
• Depending on the car, the guidance may deviate to the right
or left. This is not a malfunction.
64-EN
■
Distance guidance mark
The distance guides represent the ground level distance
from the rear bumper. It is difficult to accurately estimate
the distance to objects above ground level.
In the following example, the distance to A is 0.5 m and the
distance to B is 1 m.
<Screen>
C
B
A
(about
0.5 m)
<Positions of A, B and C>
about 1 m
In the screen, according to the distance guidance marks,
the truck seems to be parked about 1 m away (at the
position B). In actual fact, however, if you reversed to
position A, you would collide with the truck.
In the screen, positions A, B and C seem to be located in
order of proximity. However, in actual fact, the position
A and C are the same distance, and B is farther away
than positions A and C.
• The car width extension mark represents the distance to the
road surface. The distance to an object on the road is not
accurately represented by the guides.
Error between the screen and the actual road
surface
In the following conditions, errors are produced between
the screen guidance and the actual road surface. (The
illustrations represent a case when the camera is installed in
the standard position.)
■
When there is a steep upward slope behind
the car (example)
<Screen>
Distance guidance marks
<Situation of the car>
Actual distances
Error Error
The distance guidance mark represents the distance to a
flat road surface. Therefore in the case of an upward
slope behind the car, the distance guides are displayed
closer to the rear bumper than the actual distance. For
example, if there is an obstacle on the upward slope, it
may appear farther away than its actual position.
Also, an error may occur between the guidance and the
actual path of the car on the road surface.
65-EN
■
When there is a steep downward slope behind
the car (example)
<Screen>
<Situation of the car>
Error Error
In the case of a downward slope behind the car, the
distance guides are displayed farther from the rear
bumper than the actual distance.
If there is an obstacle on the downward slope, it seems
closer than its actual position.
Also, an error may occur between the guidance and the
actual path of the car on the road surface.

About the Supported Formats
About MP3/WMA/AAC/FLAC/WAV/APE
CAUTION
Except for private use, duplicating audio data
(including MP3/WMA/AAC/FLAC/WAV/APE data) or
distributing, transferring, or copying it, whether for
free or for a fee, without permission of the copyright
holder is strictly prohibited by the Copyright Act
and by international treaty.
What is MP3?
MP3, whose official name is “MPEG Audio Layer 3,” is a
compression standard prescribed by the ISO, the
International Standardization Organization and MPEG
which is a joint activity institution of the IEC.
MP3 files contain compressed audio data. MP3 encoding
is capable of compressing audio data at extremely high
ratios, reducing the size of music files to as much as
one-tenth their original size. This is achieved while still
maintaining near CD quality. The MP3 format realizes
such high compression ratios by eliminating the sounds
that are either inaudible to the human ear or masked by
other sounds.
What is WMA?
WMA, or “Windows Media™ Audio,” is compressed audio
data.
WMA is similar to MP3 audio data.
70-EN
What is AAC?
AAC is the abbreviation for “Advanced Audio Coding,”
and is a basic format of audio compression used by
MPEG2 or MPEG4.
What is FLAC?
FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) is an audio file codec
for lossless compression, developed and offered as open
source software.
Codecs with lossy compression forms, such as MP3 and
AAC, reduce part of the data to improve compression
efficiency.
However, FLAC can reconstruct compressed data to be
an identical copy of the original data by performing
lossless compression. The compression ratio of FLAC is
about 50%.
What is WAV?
WAV is a standard audio format for Windows. It is the
original format before compression. You can enjoy music
with almost the same sound quality as a CD. WAV is also
known as WAVE.
What is APE?
APE is a format called lossless compression. It can be
restored to its original quality by decoding. Mainly, it is
used in “Monkey’s Audio.”
Method for creating MP3/WMA/AAC/FLAC/WAV/APE
(USB Flash drive) files
Audio data is compressed using software with MP3/
WMA/AAC/FLAC/WAV/APE (USB Flash drive) codecs. For
details on creating MP3/WMA/AAC/FLAC/WAV/APE (USB
Flash drive) files, refer to the user’s manual for that
software.
MP3/WMA/AAC/FLAC/WAV/APE (USB Flash drive) files
that are playable on this device have the file extensions.
MP3: “mp3”

WAV: “wav ”
APE: “ape”
WMA is not supported for the following files, Windows
Media Audio Professional, Windows Media Audio 10 std
or Windows Media Audio 10 Pro Lossless.
There are many different versions of the AAC format.
Confirm that the software being used conforms to the
acceptable formats listed above. It’s possible that the
format may be unplayable even though the extension is
valid.
Playback of AAC files encoded by iTunes is supported.

Terminology
Bit rate
This is the “sound” compression rate specified for
encoding. The higher the bit rate, the higher the sound
quality, but also the larger the files.
Sampling rate
This value shows how many times per second the data is
sampled (recorded). For example, music CDs use a
sampling rate of 44.1 kHz, so the sound is sampled
(recorded) 44,100 times per second. The higher the
sampling rate, the higher the sound quality, but also the
larger the volume of data.
Encoding
Converting music CDs, WAVE (AIFF) files, and other
sound files into the specified audio compression format.
Tag
Song information such as track titles, artist names,
album names, etc., written into MP3/WMA/AAC/FLAC/
WAV/APE (USB flash drive) files.
Root folder
The root folder (or root directory) is found at the top of
the file system. The root folder contains all folders and
files. It is created automatically for all USB flash drives.

• If the switched power (ignition) lead of the unit is connected directly to the positive (+) post of the vehicle’s battery, the unit draws
some current (several hundred milliamperes) even when its switch is placed in the OFF position, and the battery may be discharged.
To prevent external noise from entering the audio system.
• Locate the unit and route the leads at least 10 cm (4”) away from the car harness.
• Keep the battery power leads as far away from other leads as possible.
• Connect the ground lead securely to a bare metal spot (remove any paint, dirt or grease if necessary) of the car chassis.
• If you add an optional noise suppressor, connect it as far away from the unit as possible. Your Alpine dealer carries
various noise suppressors, contact them for further information.
• Your Alpine dealer knows best about noise prevention measures so consult your dealer for further information.
