Operating Instructions

PRECAUTIONS

IMPORTANT INFORMATION, PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT.

This product is intended to safely provide turn-by-turn instructions to get you to a desired destination. Please read the following precautions to ensure that you use this navigation system correctly.

• This product is not a substitute for your personal judgement. Any

route suggestions made by this navigation system should never supersede any local traffic regulations or your personal judgement and/or knowledge of safe driving practices. Do not follow route suggestions if the navigation system instructs you to perform an unsafe or illegal manoeuvre, places you in an unsafe situation, or routes you into an area which you consider unsafe.

• Glance at the screen only when necessary and safe to do so. If

prolonged viewing of the screen is necessary, stop in a safe and legal manner and location.

• Do not input destinations, change settings, or access any

functions requiring a prolonged view of the monitor while you are driving. Stop in a safe and legal manner and location before attempting to access the system.

• When using the navigation system to find/route to an emergency

service, please contact the facility to validate and verify availability, prior to driving to it. Not all locations of emergency service providers such as police and fire stations, hospitals, and clinics are contained in the database. Please use your own judgement and your ability to ask for directions in these situations.

• The map database contained within the media (SD memory card)

in which it is stored is the most recent map data available at the time of production. Because of changes in streets and neighborhoods, there may be situations where the navigation system may not be able to route you to your desired destination. In these cases, use your own personal judgement.

• The map database is designed to provide you with route

suggestions, it does not take account of the relative safety of a suggested route, or of factors which may affect the time required to reach your destination. The system does not reflect road closures or construction, road characteristics (i.e. type of road surface, slope or grade, weight or height restrictions, etc.), traffic congestion, weather conditions, or any other factors which may affect the safety or timing of your driving experience. Use your personal judgement if the navigation system is unable to provide you with an alternate route.

• There may be situations where the navigation system may

display the vehicle’s location erroneously. Use your own driving judgement in this situation, taking into account current driving conditions. Please be aware that in this situation, the navigation system should correct the vehicle’s position automatically; however, there may be times where you may have to correct the position yourself. If this is the case, stop in a safe and legal manner and location before attempting operation.

• Make certain that the volume level of the unit is set to a level

which still allows you to hear outside traffic and emergency vehicles. Driving while unable to hear outside sounds could cause an accident.

• Please make certain that any other person who intends on using

this navigation system reads these precautions and the following instructions carefully.

If there is anything in the manual about the operation of the navigation system which you are uncertain about, please contact your local Alpine authorised navigation dealer before using the navigation system.

WARNING

Points to Observe for Safe Usage

• Read this manual carefully before using this disc and the system

components. They contain instructions on how to use this product in a safe and effective manner. Alpine cannot be responsible for problems resulting from failure to observe the instructions in this manual.

• This manual uses various pictorial displays to show you how to

use this product safely and to alert you to potential dangers resulting from improper connections and operation. Following are the meanings of these pictorial displays. It is important to fully understand the meanings of these pictorial displays in order to use this manual and the system properly.

WARNING

• Operation of the system while driving is dangerous. Users should stop vehicle before operating the software.

• Road conditions and regulations take precedence over information contained on the map display: observe actual traffic restrictions and circumstances while driving.

• This software is designed for use exclusively in the INE-W970BT. It cannot and may not be used in conjunction with other hardware.

WARNING

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

ALPINE INE-W970BT 68-25285Z06-A (EN)

01GB00INE-W970BT.book Page 8 Sunday, February 10, 2013 4:43 PM

INSTALL THE PRODUCT CORRECTLY SO THAT THE DRIVER CANNOT WATCH TV/VIDEO UNLESS THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE IS APPLIED.

It is dangerous for the driver to watch TV/Video while driving a vehicle. Installing this product incorrectly enables the driver to watch TV/Video while driving. This may cause a distraction, preventing the driver from looking ahead, thus causing an accident. The driver or other people could be severely injured.

DO NOT WATCH VIDEO WHILE DRIVING.

Watching the video may distract the driver from looking ahead of the vehicle and cause an accident.

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 FOLLOW ROUTE SUGGESTIONS IF THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM INSTRUCTS YOU TO PERFORM AN UNSAFE OR ILLEGAL MANEUVER, OR PLACES YOU IN AN UNSAFE SITUATION OR AREA.

This product is not a substitute for your personal judgement. Any route suggestions by this system should never supersede any local traffic regulations or your personal judgement or knowledge of safe driving practice.

USE THIS PRODUCT FOR MOBILE 12V APPLICATIONS.

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

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.

CAUTION

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 Centre for repairing.

KEEP FINGERS AWAY WHILE THE MOTORIZED FRONT PANEL OR MOVING MONITOR IS IN MOTION.

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

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.

MINIMIZE DISPLAY VIEWING WHILE DRIVING.

Viewing the display may distract the driver from looking ahead of the vehicle and cause an accident.

DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR ALTER.

Doing so may result in an accident, 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.

KEEP SMALL OBJECTS SUCH AS SCREWS 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.

DO NOT BLOCK VENTS OR RADIATOR PANELS.

Doing so may cause heat to build up inside and may result in fire.

NOTICE

Product Cleaning

Use a soft dry cloth for periodic cleaning of the product. For more severe stains, please dampen the cloth with water only. Anything else has the chance of dissolving the paint or damaging the plastic.

Temperature

Be sure the temperature inside the vehicle is between +45°C (+113°F) and 0°C (+32°F) before turning your unit on.

Moisture Condensation

You may notice the disc 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.

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.

New Discs

To prevent the disc from jamming, “Disc error” is displayed if discs with irregular surfaces are inserted or if discs are inserted incorrectly. When a new disc is ejected immediately after initial loading, use your finger to 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 ballpoint pen or other such instrument, then insert the disc again.

Outside (Bumps)

Installation Location

Make sure the INE-W970BT will not be installed in a location subjected to:

• Direct sun and heat

• High humidity and water

• Excessive dust

• Excessive vibrations

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.

CORRECT

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. 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.

Irregular Shaped Discs

Be sure to use round shaped discs only for this unit and never use any special shaped discs. Use of special shaped discs may cause damage to the mechanism.

INCORRECT CORRECT

Disc Cleaning

Fingerprints, dust, or soil on the surface of the disc could cause the DVD player to skip. For routine cleaning, wipe the playing surface with a clean, soft cloth from the centre 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 operational problems. We recommend not using these accessories on discs played in Alpine DVD players.

Transparent Sheet Disc Stabiliser

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 INE-W970BT. This has been done for the safety of the driver and passengers. Setup operations cannot be made if 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. The warning “Unable to operate while driving.” will be displayed if any attempts are made to perform these operations while driving.

• The INE-W970BT draws minimal current even when its power switch

is turned off. If the switched power (ignition) lead of the INEW970BT is connected directly to the positive (+) post of the vehicle’s battery, the battery may be discharged. 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 INE-W970BT. For connecting the SPST switch, refer to the “Connection Diagram of SPST Switch (sold separately)” (page 85). If the power (ignition) lead is unswitched, it must be disconnected from the battery post should the vehicle be left unused for an extended period of time.

Using compact discs (CD/CD-R/CD-RW)

If you use unspecified compact discs, correct performance cannot be guaranteed. You can play CD-Rs (CD-Recordables)/CD-RWs (CDReWritables) which have been recorded only on audio devices. You can also play CD-Rs/CD-RWs containing MP3/WMA/AAC formatted audio files.

• Some of the following discs may not play on this unit: Flawed discs, discs with fingerprints, discs exposed to extreme temperatures or sunlight (e.g., left in the car or this unit), discs recorded under unstable conditions, discs on which a recording failed or a re-recording was attempted, copy-protected CDs which do not conform to the audio CD industry standard.

• Use discs with MP3/WMA/AAC files written in a format compliant with this unit. For details, see pages 23 and 24.

To customers using CD-R/CD-RW

• If a CD-R/CD-RW cannot be played back, make sure the last recording session was closed (finalised).

• Finalise the CD-R/CD-RW if necessary, and attempt playback again.

Tips for making your own discs

The INE-W970BT plays DVD Video, DivX®, Audio CD and has a built in MP3/WMA/AAC decoder.

The following information is designed to help you create your own music CDs (either Audio CD or MP3/WMA/AAC encoded CD-R/ RW files).

What is the difference between an Audio and MP3/WMA/AAC CD?

An Audio CD is the same format as the commercial CDs you buy in the store (also known as CD-DA). MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3)/ WMA (Windows Media Audio)/AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) is a data file that uses a compression scheme to reduce the size of the music file*.

Multisession CD-R/RW:

Once a recording has been stopped, this is considered one session. If the disc is not closed (finalised), additional data may be added. Once this additional data has been recorded, this becomes a “multisession” CD. * If the first session on a disc containing both CD-DA data and

MP3/WMA/AAC data is a CD-DA file, only CD-DA files will be played.

Properly formatted MP3/WMA/AAC Discs:

Use ISO9660 formatting to insure proper playback. You may use standard ISO naming Level 1 (8.3 DOS standard), Level 2 (32 characters) or Joliet (Windows or Macintosh long filenames) file naming conventions*.

* Please consult the Owner’s manual for additional information.

On handling compact discs (CD/CD-R/CD-RW)

• Do not touch the surface.

• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight.

• Do not affix stickers or labels.

• Clean the disc when it is dusty.

• Make sure that the disc is smooth and flat.

• Do not use commercially available disc accessories.

Do not leave the disc in the car or the unit for a long time. Never expose the disc to direct sunlight.

Heat and humidity may damage the disc and you may not be able to play it again.

About MP3/WMA/AAC

CAUTION

Except for private use, duplicating audio data (including MP3/ WMA/AAC data) or distributing, transferring, or copying it, whether for free or for a fee, without permission of the copyright holder is strictly prohibited by the Copyright Act and by international treaty.

What is MP3?

MP3, whose official name is “MPEG Audio Layer 3,” is a compression standard prescribed by the ISO, the International Standardisation Organisation and MPEG which is a joint activity institution of the IEC.

MP3 files contain compressed audio data. MP3 encoding is capable of compressing audio data at extremely high ratios, reducing the size of music files to as much as one-tenth their original size. This is achieved while still maintaining near CD quality. The MP3 format realises such high compression ratios by eliminating the sounds that are either inaudible to the human ear or masked by other sounds.

What is AAC?

AAC is the abbreviation for “Advanced Audio Coding,” and is a basic format of audio compression used by MPEG2 or MPEG4.

What is WMA?

WMA, or “Windows Media™ Audio,” is compressed audio data. WMA is similar to MP3 audio data.

Method for creating MP3/WMA/AAC files

Audio data is compressed using software with MP3/WMA/AAC codecs. For details on creating MP3/WMA/AAC files, refer to the user’s manual for that software. MP3/WMA/AAC files that are playable on this device have the file extensions. MP3: “mp3” WMA: “wma” (ver. 7.x, 8.x, 9.x are supported) AAC: “m4a” WMA is not supported for the following files, Windows Media Audio Professional, Windows Media Audio 9 Voice or Windows Media Audio 9 Pro Lossless.

There are many different versions of the AAC format. Confirm that the software being used conforms to the acceptable formats listed above. It’s possible that the format may be unplayable even though the extension is valid. Playback of AAC files encoded by iTunes is supported.

Terminology

Bit rate

This is the “sound” compression rate specified for encoding. The higher the bit rate, the higher the sound quality, but also the larger the files.

Sampling rate

This value shows how many times per second the data is sampled (recorded). For example, music CDs use a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz, so the sound is sampled (recorded) 44,100 times per second. The higher the sampling rate, the higher the sound quality, but also the larger the volume of data.

Encoding

Converting music CDs, WAVE (AIFF) files, and other sound files into the specified audio compression format.

Tag

Song information such as track titles, artist names, album names, etc., written into MP3/WMA/AAC files.

Root folder

The root folder (or root directory) is found at the top of the file system. The root folder contains all folders and files. It is created automatically for all burned discs.
