Precautions

WARNING

This symbol means important instructions. Failure to heed them can result in serious injury or death.

DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR ALTER.

Doing so may result in an accident, fire or electric shock.

KEEP SMALL OBJECTS SUCH AS BATTERIES 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.

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.

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 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 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.

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 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 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 DAMAGE PIPES 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.

MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS.

Failure to make the proper connections may result in fire or product damage.

DO NOT PLACE HANDS, FINGERS OR FOREIGN OBJECTS IN INSERTION SLOTS OR GAPS.

Doing so may result in personal injury or damage to the product.

KEEP THE VOLUME AT A LEVEL WHERE YOU CAN STILL HEAR OUTSIDE NOISE WHILE DRIVING.

Failure to do so may result in an accident.

USE THIS PRODUCT FOR MOBILE 12V APPLICATIONS.

Use for other than its designed application may result in fire, electric shock or other injury.

2-EN

CAUTION

This symbol means important instructions. Failure to heed them can result in injury or material property damage.

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.

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.

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.

CAUTION

CAUTION-Laser radiation when open, DO NOT STARE INTO BEAM

(Rear side of player)

DO NOT MIX NEW BATTERIES WITH OLD BATTERIES. INSERT WITH THE CORRECT BATTERY POLARITY.

When inserting the batteries, be sure to observe proper polarity (+ and –) as instructed. Rupture or chemical leakage from the battery may cause fire or personal injury.

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.

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.

Precautions

PRECAUTIONS

Temperature

Be sure the temperature inside the vehicle is between +60°C (+140°F) and –10°C (+14°F) before turning your unit on.

Damaged Disc

Do not attempt to play cracked, warped, or otherwise damaged discs. Playing a bad disc could severely damage the playback mechanism.

Proper Handling

Handle your disc as shown. Do not drop the disc while handling. Hold the disc so you will not leave fingerprints on the surface. If the surface is scratched, it may cause the pickup to skip. Do not affix tape, paper, or gummed labels on the disc. Do not write on the disc.

Keep Your Discs Clean

Fingerprints, dust, or soil on the surface could cause the pickup 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

Various disc accessories for protecting the surface of the disc and improving sound quality are available on the market. However, many of them will increase the thickness and/or diameter of the disc. Using such accessories may place the disc beyond the specified size limitations and cause the changer to malfunction. Because of the high precision electronics of the DHA-S680 and the highly stable mechanism, these accessories are not necessary and therefore not recommended for use with discs placed in the DHA-S680.

Storage

When not in use, place your discs in their individual cases and store them in a cool place away from the sun, heat, and dust.

Irregular Shaped Discs

Make sure the discs you use in this unit do not have any irregularities. The outer and inner edges should be round and smooth. Use of irregularly shaped discs may cause damage to the mechanism.

Installation Location

Make sure the DHA-S680 will not be installed in a location subjected to:

• Direct sun and heat

• High humidity and water

• Excessive dust

• Excessive vibrations

Caution for new discs

When a newly purchased disc is inserted into the changer magazine, the disc may fail to play after initial loading. This is caused by small bumps around the center hole and outside of the disc, which prevent stable loading into the correct position. To remove the bumps, rub the inside edge of the hole and outside edge of the disc with a ballpoint pen or other such instrument, then insert the disc again.

NOTE

The mechanism automatically prevents this type of disc from playing as a protective measure. This is not an indication of faulty operation.

4-EN

Before Operation

About DVDs

Music CDs and DVDs have grooves (tracks) in which the digital data is recorded. The data is represented as microscopic pits recorded into the track – these pits are read by a laser beam to play the disc. On DVDs, the density of the tracks and pits is twice that of CDs, so DVDs can contain more data in less space.

CDs

Minimum pit length -

0.9 µm

DVDs

Minimum pit length -

0.9 µm

A 12 cm disc can contain one movie or about four hours of music. In addition, DVDs provide sharp picture quality with vivid colors thanks to a horizontal resolution of over 500 lines (compared to less than 300 for VHS tape). With the addition of an optional, digital audio processor (PXA-H900/PXA-H510), you can recreate the power and presence of a movie theater with Dolby Digital 5.1-channel Surround.

1.2 mm

0.6 mm

Track pitch -

1.6 µm

Track pitch -

0.74 µm

Moreover, DVDs offer a variety of functions.

• Multiple audio* (page 17)

Movies can be recorded in up to eight languages. The desired language can be selected from the remote control unit.

• Subtitles function* (page 18)

Movies can include subtitles in up to 32 languages. The desired subtitle language can be selected from the remote control unit.

• Multi angle function* (page 17)

When the DVD contains a movie shot from multiple angles, the desired angle can be selected from the remote control unit.

• Multi story function*

With this function, a single movie includes various story lines. You can select different story lines to view various versions of the same movie. Operation differs from disc to disc. Story line selection screens including instructions appear during the movie. Just follow the instructions.

NOTE

* The functions audio languages, subtitle languages,

angles, etc., differ from disc to disc. For details, refer to the disc’s instructions.

Examples of System Upgrades

Precautions when Making System Upgrades

• After connections are completed, it will be necessary to change the system settings of the DHA-S680. Before installing the product, please see page 48 and change the settings.

• Set to “ON” in the following cases: When the DHA-S680 is connected to an AiNET compatible head unit or an Ai-NET compatible A V head unit. In this case, if set to “OFF” the DHA-S680 cannot be controlled from the head unit, and the sound of external products (CD changer, etc.) cannot be heard. “ON” is set upon shipment from the factory.

• Set to “OFF” in the following cases: When using a head unit that is not Ai-NET compatible or another brand of head unit.

Press and hold the SET button for at least 2 seconds. The settings are stored in the memory and the setting mode is canceled.

Press and hold the V.OUT button on the remote control unit for at least 2 seconds to turn the power off. Disconnect the remote control sensor unit.

NOTE

When not connecting an Ai-NET compatible head unit, do not disconnect the Remote Control Sensor Unit.

Turn the vehicle’s ignition key off, then turn it back on.

Switch the head unit’s source to check that the DHA-S680’s power turns on. Insert a disc and check that the picture and sound are properly output. If the power does not turn on, start the setting procedure over from the beginning.

• When connecting the DHA-S680 to a head unit or AV head unit, do not connect the switched power lead (ignition).

• When connecting the optical digital output to an ALPINE digital audio processor (such as the PXA-H510 and PXA-H900), be sure to make connection to the CHANGER connectors of the digital audio processor optical digital input connectors. This arrangement allows you to enjoy Dolby Digital 5.1 Channel Surround and other effects even when connection is made to the CHANGER connectors.

• When using the Alpine Versatile Link Terminal (KCA-410C) and connecting the DHA-S680, connect the DHA-S680 Ai-NET cable to the CHANGER1 connector of the KCA-410C. Also note that when using the KCA-410C and making connections, system setting changes of the DHA-S680 will be required before connecting the KCA-410C. See page 48 and make the settings.

• When combining the DHA-S680 and the CD changer (CHA-S624), the optical digital output of the CHA-S624 cannot be used.

• When connecting the DHA-S680 to an Alpine TV monitor and AV head unit together, be sure to connect the mutual remote control input cable (white/brown). Failing to do so will result in a loss of remote control operation. When making connections to another brand of TV monitor, please use the supplied remote control sensor unit.

NOTES

• If using in a system with a head unit that is not fully Ai-NET compatible (no processor control) and a digital audio processor, do not connect the head unit’s Ai-NET cable. Only connect the DHA-S680 and digital audio processor using an optical fiber cable and its own Ai-NET cable. Use the head unit’s analog output (Front or rear) connected to the analog input of the processor. This will allow some of the processors functions to be controlled from the DHA-S680.

• When connecting only to a digital audio processor (with a non-Alpine head unit or Alpine head unit without Ai-NET), it is possible to use both an optical fiber cable and an Ai-NET output cable. In this case the digital audio processor can be controlled from the DHA-S680.

• When connecting another brand of TV monitor, there is no need to connect the remote control input cord (white/ brown). Use the remote control sensor unit included with the DHA-S680.

• Be sure to connect the switched Power Lead (Ignition).

• Also refer to the operating instructions of the other products in the system.

Terminology

Dolby Digital

Dolby Digital is a digital audio compression technology developed by Dolby Laboratories that allows large quantities of audio data to be efficiently recorded on discs. It is compatible with audio signals from mono (1 channel) all the way up to 5.1-channel surround sound. The signals for the different channels are completely independent, and since the sound is high quality digital there is no loss of sound quality. * The separately sold digital audio processor (PXA-

H510/PXA-H900) is required to enjoy full 5.1channel surround sound.

DTS

This is a home-use digital sound format of the DTS Sound System. This is a high quality sound system, developed by Digital Theater Systems Corp for use in movie theaters. DTS has six independent sound tracks. The theater presentation is fully realized in the home and other settings. DTS is the abbreviation for Digital Theater System. * To enjoy DTS surround sound you need the

separately sold DTS digital audio processor. The DVD video software must also have a DTS sound track.

The DHA-S680 performs Dolby Digital decoding when it outputs analog audio signals, it just happens to be 2-channel audio not 5.1-channel.

Rear speakers

Dolby Pro Logic

Dolby Pro Logic is the technology used to decode programs encoded in Dolby Surround. Pro logic decoding will provide you with four channels of sound (front left/right, center and monaural rear surround) from a 2-channel (stereo) source. * The separately sold digital audio processor (PXA-

H510/PXA-H900) is required to enjoy Dolby Pro Logic surround sound.

Linear PCM audio (LPCM)

LPCM is a signal recording format used for music CDs. Whereas music CDs are recorded at 44.1 kHz/ 16 bits, DVDs are recorded at 48 kHz/16 bits to 96 kHz/24 bits, thereby achieving higher sound quality than music CDs.

Rating levels (parental lock)

This is a function of the DVD for restricting the viewing age as stipulated by laws in different countries. The way in which viewing is restricted differs from DVD to DVD. Sometimes the DVD cannot be played at all, other times certain scenes are skipped, and other times certain scenes are replaced with other scenes.
