Replacing Fuse
When replacing a fuse(s), use a fuse of the same amperage rating 3A, as shown on the fuse
holder. If the fuse continues to blow, carefully check all electrical connections for short circuits.
Itis also a good idea to check the car's voltage regulator. Do not attempt to repair or service the
unit yourself; return the unit to your nearest authorized Alpine Service Station for servicing.
Thermal Protection Circuit
When your car is parked for along period of time during the summer or winter, the temperature
inside the car fluctuates greatly. Be sure to allow the temperature inside the car to reach an ap-
propriate level before attempting to use the unit. When the temperature is over 140°F (+ 60°C),
the protection circuit functions to stop the CD player, and “— — — H" is displayed.
Locking Mechanism
Be sure to eject any compact disc from the player before removing the unit from the dash. Itis
necessary to remove the CD in order for the locking mechanism to be activated. Otherwise,
the compact disc or laser mechanism may be damaged during transportation.
Moisture Condensation
When the climate is very humid, moisture condensation may occur inside the player. This could
prevent the player from functioning properly. You may notice the playback sound wavering
when it occurs. When this happens, remove the disc from the player and allow about an hour
until the player is moisture free.
Handling of the unit when removed from Quick Release Bracket
Keep the following in mind when carrying out the unit.
1. Do not drop or apply shock to the unit. It might cause permanent damage.
2. Keep the unit away from:
a: Water and moisture
b: Direct sun and heat
c: Excessive dust
d: Strong magnetic field such as speaker, magnet or TV.
CAUTION: In the event of road vibration or rapid acceleration or vehicle collision, this unit may
become dislodged from its case unless the handle is fully down. This could result in personal in-
jury to occupants of the vehicle or physical damage to the unit. Please see the illustrations be-
low for further information on how to properly secure the handle.
