Introduction

Package contents

Receiver

This is intended to be mounted to the windscreen.

Batteries

Two AAA batteries.

Magnetic grounding tail This attaches to the receiver (see page 7).

DAB ﬁlm antenna This attaches to the receiver. Note: The DAB ﬁlm antenna is delicate, so be careful not to bend it.

Wireless controller

The wireless controller connects to the receiver using Bluetooth and is used to control all of EZi-DAB-BT’s functions.

Wireless controller bracket Bracket for positioning the wireless controller on your dashboard. Includes sticky pad.

Installing EZi-DAB-BT in your vehicle

Important safety notice

For your safety, do not run cables so that they interfere with operation of the vehicle, or through a location that would interfere with the function of the airbags or other safety equipment, for example seat belts. Do not install any of EZi-DAB-BT’s components in a location that obstructs the view of the driver or in a location where digital radio interference may be caused from the metal bodywork or other components.

Suggested position

No restriction

Zone B Zone A

Max 4cm incursion

Max 1cm incursion

Receiver positioning overview

The receiver is designed to be installed on a window using the self-adhesive pads provided.

Make sure that you install the receiver in a safe position where the primary viewing area is not obstructed. Your windscreen can be divided into separate zones to help you determine where the receiver can be safely placed:

Zone A is a vertical area 290mm wide, centred on the steering wheel and contained within the swept area of the windscreen (this area is 350mm wide on vehicles over 3.5 tonnes) which must not be incurred upon by more than 1cm.

Note: Fitting EZi-DAB-BT in this area is not recommended.

Zone B is the remainder of the swept area of the windscreen which must not be incurred upon by more than 4cm.

The above information is a guide only, for full information you should consult the relevant country department of transport guidelines.

Considerations before installing EZi-DAB-BT

Minimum vehicle requirements

• Fitted audio system with either aux-in (3.5 mm) or FM receiver.

• Standard 12V negative earth power system - not suitable for 24V systems.

Check for the latest EZi-DAB-BT software updates

Visit www.alpine-europe.com to see if any software updates are available for your EZi-DAB-BT.

Test intended positions of receiver and wireless controller before fixing into place

• Check the cable length to ensure connectors can reach the audio and accessory power outlet positions.

• Temporarily place the receiver and wireless controller in their intended positions and check that EZi-DAB-BT is working as expected. Check the digital radio quality and signal strength (see ‘Info’ on page 23 for more information).

Receiver positioning

• Ensure you can easily access the ‘Reset’ button on the receiver before ﬁtting.

• For best performance we recommend positioning the receiver away from heated screen elements and not on glass panels that contain metallic UV ﬁlters.

Wireless controller positioning

Consider usability and visibility from driving seat and possible mounting points/brackets.

Connecting to your existing audio system

There are two options for installing EZi-DAB-BT. You can connect EZi-DAB-BT to your audio system’s auxiliary connection or you can transmit to your audio system wirelessly using an available FM frequency.

• If you want to use an auxiliary cable (recommended for best performance), check for auxiliary inputs on the existing audio system (this may be on the back on some audio systems). For more information, see your existing audio system’s user guide.

• If you want to use an available FM frequency, select this option during initial EZi-DAB-BT setup (see page 14 for more information). Note: To comply with legal requirements the FM transmitter function of EZi-DAB-BT will switch o if no audio is transmitted for a period lasting over a minute - this includes DAB radio or audio streamed from your phone or tablet. If FM transmission is switched o you need to re-tune to an active DAB station or stream audio from your phone or tablet.

Used to reset EZi-DAB-BT or to start pairing between the receiver and the wireless controller, see ’Troubleshooting’ on page 25 for more information.

Microphone connection

Optional detachable magnetic grounding tail

We recommend ﬁtting the magnetic grounding tail if you can stick it to a metal part of your vehicle’s bodywork. It can improve DAB reception in areas with poor signal strength. See the next page for installation guidance.

Installing the receiver

We recommend installing EZi-DAB-BT’s receiver on your vehicle’s windscreen as described below (see page 5 for more information).

1. If you decided to ﬁt the magnetic grounding tail, gently pull down the front of the roof liner so that there is enough room to push the detachable magnetic grounding tail through the gap. Note: Ensure that the magnet on the end of the magnetic grounding tail makes contact with the roof above your vehicle’s headliner or the vehicle’s metal bodywork surface.

2. Use the supplied cleaning wipe to clean the area of the windscreen that you want to install the receiver and ﬁlm antenna on and wait for the surface to dry. Important: Ensure the surface is completely clean and dry before adhesion.

Note: The receiver and antenna should be installed at least 40mm from

your vehicle’s metal bodywork.

3. Remove the backing from the receiver (A) and attach to your windscreen. Note: Make sure that you install EZi-DAB-BT in a safe position where the

primary viewing area is not obstructed (see page 5).

4. Gently unpeel the backing of the ﬁlm antenna (B) and attach to your

windscreen, taking care not to bend it. Apply gentle pressure until the ﬁlm antenna is held ﬁrmly in position.

Note: Take care not to unclip the ﬁlm antenna from the receiver when

attaching to your windscreen.

Cable routing overview

Installing the main cable

Installing the microphone

1. Connect the microphone to your receiver and run the cable (G) along the top of your windscreen near the driver’s position.

2. Fit the microphone (H) near the driver’s position using the supplied pads or microphone clip. Note: For best results, position the microphone as close as possible to the driver’s position.

3. Secure the microphone cable using the self-adhesive clip.

1. Identify the location of the vehicle power outlet and the auxiliary audio input (if required).

2. Uncoil the cable (A) from the receiver (B) and place in its intended position. Check there is adequate length for the cable to run to the 12V accessory socket and the auxiliary connection.

WARNING: Do not route the main cable in a way that could interfere with operation of the vehicle, or through a location that could interfere with the function of the airbags or other safety equipment. See page 5 for more information.

3. Route the cable so it is near your 12V accessory socket (C). Try to secure the cable by tucking the cable behind the trim on the side of your windscreen.

4. If you are connecting EZi-DAB-BT to your audio system using the auxiliary connection, separate the auxiliary cable (D) from the USB power cable by gently pulling the cables apart to the right length and connect to the auxiliary connection (E) on your audio system. If you are using FM transmission, coil the auxiliary connection cable and stow away in a safe position.

Secure the cables using the self-adhesive clips (F) (if required).

Ensure

all surfaces are completely clean and dry before adhesion.

Connecting the receiver to the power supply

Plug the EZi-DAB-BT power adapter into the 12V accessory socket and then plug the USB power cable from the receiver into one of the adapter’s USB ports.

Note: Cigarette lighter and power sockets can vary between car makes and models. Ensure the power adapter is completely inserted and is ﬁrmly held in position.

Note: Other electronic devices can interfere with EZi-DAB-BT’s DAB performance, for best results only use the supplied EZi-DAB-BT power adapter to power the receiver.

Installing the wireless controller

1. Slide the back cover from the wireless controller and ﬁt the supplied batteries with the correct polarity.

WARNING: See the ‘Safety instructions’ on page 2 for more information on ﬁtting and using the batteries.

2. Choose an area on your dashboard (A) where you want to install the wireless controller and wipe down with the supplied cleaning wipe. Ensure the surface is completely clean and dry before adhesion.

WARNING: See page 6 for positioning guidance.

3. Attach the bracket (B) to your dashboard.

4. Slide the wireless controller (C) on to the bracket until you hear it click

into position.
