components. They contain instructions on how to use this product
in a safe and effective manner. Alpine cannot be responsible for
problems resulting from failure to observe the instructions in this
manual.
• This manual uses various pictorial displays to show you how to use
this product safely and to alert you to potential dangers resulting
from improper connections 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.
• This product may be used with software applications. 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.
• This product may be used in conjunction with the Alpine KAC-001
External Accessory Control module, which works with various
accessory products manufactured by third parties. Please review
and follow all manufacturer's instructions and warnings for all
accessory products.
INSTALL THE PRODUCT CORRECTLY SO THAT THE DRIVER CANNOT WATCH
TV/VIDEO UNLESS THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED AND THE EMERGENCY
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.
DO NOT FOLLOW ROUTE SUGGESTIONS IF THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM
INSTRUCTS YOU TO PERFORM AN UNSAFE OR ILLEGAL MANEUVER, OR
PLACES YOU IN AN UNSAFE SITUATION OR AREA.
This product is not a substitute for your personal judgement. Any
route suggestions by this system should never supersede any local
traffic regulations or your personal judgement or knowledge of safe
driving practice.
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.
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
WARNING
•Operation of the system while driving is dangerous. Users
should stop vehicle before operating the software.
•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.
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.
9-EN
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 3.4 cm steps.
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 = 5.1 (ms)
*Speed of sound: 343 m/s (765 mph) at 20°C
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.
Adjust the time correction level of each speaker to almost the same level.
1Sit in the listening position (driver’s seat, etc.) and
measure the distance (in meters) between your head and
the various speakers.
2Calculate 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.

Distance guidance marks
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.
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>
<Positions of A, B and C>
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>
<Situation of the car>
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.
When there is a steep downward slope behind the car
(example)
<Screen>
<Situation of the car>
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
What is MP3?
MP3, whose official name is “MPEG Audio Layer 3,” is a compression
standard prescribed by the ISO, the International Standardisation
Organisation 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.
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%.
Method for creating MP3/WMA/AAC/FLAC (USB Flash drive) files
Audio data is compressed using software with MP3/WMA/AAC/FLAC
(USB Flash drive) codecs. For details on creating MP3/WMA/AAC/
FLAC (USB Flash drive) files, refer to the user’s manual for that
software.
MP3/WMA/AAC/FLAC (USB Flash drive) files that are playable on this
device have the file extensions.
MP3: “mp3”
WMA: “wma”
AAC: “m4a”
FLAC: ”flac”/”fla”
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.
Supported playback sampling rates and bit rates
MP3 (USB Flash drive/Disc)
WMA (USB Flash drive/Disc)

Corresponding File Systems
This device supports FAT 16/32.
Order of files
Files are played back in the order that the writing software writes
them to the disc. Therefore, the playback order may not be what’s
expected. Verity the writing order in the software’s documentation.
The playback order of the folders and files is as follows. (The
following numbers may differ from actually displayed numbers.)
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 (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 burned discs.
The maximum nested folder depth is 8 (including the root
directory). File names are limited to 256 characters (including the
extension).
Valid characters for folder/file names are letters A-Z (all caps),
numbers 0-9, and ‘_’ (underscore).
