WARNING

Operation of some of the functions of this unit is very complex. Because of this, it was deemed necessary to place these functions into a special screen. This will restrict operation of these functions to times when the vehicle is parked. This ensures the focus of the driver's attention will be on the road and not on the CVA-1004R. This has been done for the safety of the driver and passengers. The Title Input and SETUP screens cannot be made while the car is moving. The car must be parked and the parking brake must be engaged for the procedure described in the Owner's Manual to be valid. These operations are not possible while you are driving. Also if you attempt to drive during operation, the display will show the warning “CAN’T OPERATE WHILE DRIVING” for 5 seconds. This operation is the same as when selecting sources using the remote control (Optional). When the car is parked, the selection is made as described in the Owner's Manual.

Alpine products equipped with the Ai-NET bus, connected to the CVA-1004R, can be operated from the CVA-1004R. Depending on the products connected, the functions and displays will vary. For details, consult your Alpine dealer.

Detaching the Front Panel

1 Press and hold SOURCE/PWR (Power) for more

than 2 seconds to turn off the power.

2 Press (Release) at lower left side until the

front panel pops out.

3 Grasp the left side of the front panel and pull it

out.

1 First, insert the right side of the front panel into

the main unit. Align the groove on the front panel with the projections on the main unit.

2 Push the left side of the front panel until it locks

firmly into the main unit.

NOTE

Before attaching the front panel, make sure that there is no dirt or dust on the connector terminals and no foreign object between the front panel and the main unit.

[ Compatibility with Factory Steering Wheel

Radio Controls

If your vehicle has steering wheel controls for the radio, an optional steering wheel control interface may be available to connect your Alpine radio. For details, contact your Alpine dealer.

[ Controllable with Remote Control

This unit can be controlled with an optional Alpine remote control. For details, consult your Alpine dealer. Point the optional remote control transmitter at the remote control sensor.

Initial System Start-Up

Immediately after installing or applying power to the unit, it should be initialized. To do this, first, remove the detachable front panel. Behind the front panel, to the right of the connector, there is a small hole. Using a pencil or other pointed object, press the Reset switch mounted behind this hole to complete the initialization procedure.

Basic Operation

Turning Power On and Off

Some of this unit's functions, cannot be performed while the vehicle is in motion. Be sure to stop your vehicle in a safe location and apply the parking brake, before attempting these operations.

1 Press SOURCE/PWR (Power) to turn on the

unit. The opening screen appears automatically on the monitor.

NOTE

The unit can be turned on by pressing any other buttons except OPEN/CLOSE, TITLE

The volume level gradually increases to the previous level you were listening to before the unit was turned off. Press and hold SOURCE/ PWR (Power) for at least 2 seconds to turn off the unit.

NOTES

• After turning the system off, a slight ghost of the image will remain temporarily. This is an effect peculiar to LCD technology and is normal.

• Under cold temperature conditions, the screen may lose contrast temporarily. After a short warm-up period, it will return to normal.

• The CVA-1004R draws minimal current even when its power switch is turned off. If the switched power (ignition) lead of the CVA-1004R is connected directly to the positive (+) post of the vehicle's battery, the battery may be discharged. If this lead is unswitched, it must be disconnected from the battery post should the vehicle be left unused for an extended period of time. An SPST (Single-Pole, Single-Throw) switch (sold separately) can be added to simplify this procedure. Then, you can simply place it in the OFF position when you leave the vehicle. Turn the SPST switch back ON before using the CVA-1004R. For connecting the SPST switch, refer to "Connection Diagram of SPST Switch" on page 53.

• Some operation of the unit cannot be performed while the vehicle is in motion. In this case, be sure to first stop your vehicle and apply the parking brake, then perform the operation.

• When the movable monitor is opened, do not place any object on the monitor and be careful not to bump or apply any pressure to the monitor while it is open. This can cause damage to the mechanism.

• Under low ambient temperature conditions, the display may be dark for a short period of time immediately after the power is turned on. Once the LCD has warmed up, the display will return to normal.

• For your safety, some operation of the unit cannot be performed while the vehicle is in motion. In this case, first stop the vehicle and engage the parking brake, then perform the operation.

• If you select AUX or NAVI as the current source without connecting to the CVA-1004R, a noise may occur when you open the monitor. This is not a malfunction.

Lowering the Monitor

1 Press OPEN/CLOSE, or press and hold MUTE

on the optional Remote Control. The unit will beep 3 times and lower the monitor automatically.

NOTES
