Failure to heed them can result in serious injury or death.
CAUTION

Failure to heed them can result in injury or property damages.
WARNING
r 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.
r 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.
r DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR ALTER. Doing so may result in an accident, re or electric shock.
r USE THIS PRODUCT FOR MOBILE 12V APPLICATIONS. Use for other than its designed application may
result in re, electric shock or other injury.
r DO NOT BLOCK VENTS OR RADIATOR PANELS. Doing so may cause heat to build up inside and may result
in re.
r MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS. Failure to make the proper connections may result in re or product
damage.
r USE ONLY IN VEHICLES WITH A 12 VOLT NEGATIVE GROUND. (Check with your dealer if you are not sure.)
Failure to do so may result in re, etc.
r 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.
r 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.
r 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 re or electric shock.
r 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 re.
r 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 re etc.
r KEEP SMALL OBJECTS SUCH AS BOLTS OR SCREWS OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN. Swallowing
them may result in serious injury. If swallowed, consult a physician immediately.
CAUTION
r 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.
r 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.
r USE SPECIFIED ACCESSORY PARTS AND INSTALL THEM SECURELY. Be sure to use only the specied
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.
r 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.
r 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.
