CAUTION
PRECAUTIONS
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.
Temperature
Be sure the temperature inside the vehicle is
between +60°C (+140°F) and –10°C (+14°F)
before turning your unit on.
Moisture Condensation
You may notice the CD playback sound
wavering due to condensation. If this happens,
remove the disc from the player and wait about
an hour for the moisture to evaporate.
Damaged Disc
Do not attempt to play cracked, warped, or
damaged discs. Playing a bad disc could
severely damage the playback mechanism.
Maintenance
If you have problems, do not attempt to repair
the unit yourself. Return it to your Alpine
dealer or the nearest Alpine Service Station for
servicing.
3-EN
Never Attempt the Following
Do not grip or pull out the disc while it is being
pulled back into the player by the automatic
reloading mechanism.
Do not attempt to insert a disc into the unit
when the unit power is off.
Inserting Discs
Your player accepts only one disc at a time for
playback.
Do not attempt to load more than one disc.
Make sure the label side is facing up when you
insert the disc. Your player will automatically
eject any disc that is inserted incorrectly. If the
player continues to eject a correctly inserted
disc, push the Reset switch with a pointed
object such as a ball-point pen.
Playing a disc while driving on a very bumpy
road may result in skips, but this will not
scratch the disc or damage the player.
New Discs
As a protective measure to prevent the CD
from jamming, the CD player will automatically eject discs with irregular surfaces or
inserted incorrectly. When a new disc is
inserted into the player and ejected after initial
loading, using your finger, feel around the
inside of the centre hole and outside edge of
the disc. If you feel any small bumps or
irregularities, this could inhibit proper loading
of the disc. To remove the bumps, rub the
inside edge of the hole and outside edge of the
disc with a ball-point pen or other such
instrument, then insert the disc again.

Irregular Shaped Discs
Be sure to use round shape discs only for this
unit and never use any special shape discs.
Use of special shape discs may cause damage
to the mechanism.
Installation Location
Make sure the CDA-7990 will not be installed
in a location subjected to:
• Direct sun and heat
• High humidity and water
• Excessive dust
• Excessive vibrations
Handling the Detachable Front Panel
• Do not expose to rain or water.
• Do not drop or apply shock.
Correct Handling
Do not drop the disc while handling. Hold the
disc so you will not leave fingerprints on the
surface. Do not affix tape, paper, or gummed
labels to the disc. Do not write on the disc.
Disc Cleaning
Fingerprints, dust, or soil on the surface of the
disc could cause the CD player to skip. For
routine cleaning, wipe the playing surface with
a clean, soft cloth from the center of the disc to
the outer edge. If the surface is heavily soiled,
dampen a clean, soft cloth in a solution of mild
neutral detergent before cleaning the disc.

Disc Accessories
There are various accessories available on the
market for protecting the disc surface and
improving sound quality.
However, most of them will influence the
thickness and/or diameter of the disc. Using
such accessories can cause the disc to be out of
standard specifications and may create
operational problems. We recommend not
using these accessories on discs played in
Alpine CD players.
