WARNING
PRECAUTIONS
Temperature
Be sure the temperature inside the vehicle is between +45C
(+113F) and 0C (+32F) before turning your unit on.
Fuse Replacement
When replacing the fuse(s), the replacement must be of the
same amperage as shown on the fuse holder. If the fuse(s)
blows more than once, carefully check all electrical connections
for shorted circuitry. Also have your vehicle’s voltage regulator
checked.
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.
Installation Location
Make sure the KCE-635UB will not be exposed to:
• Direct sun and heat
• High humidity
• Excessive dust
• Excessive vibrations
SAFETY
Video Output (front)
In order to ensure vehicle safety, the driver side screen must be
connected to the front video output connector.
This will ensure the driver won’t be able to watch video while
the vehicle is moving, if the yellow/blue handbrake wire is
properly connected. The driver will be able to watch video once
the handbrake is pulled. The rear passenger screens, connected
to the rear video output connectors, do not fall under this
restriction.

Installation and Connections
Before installing or connecting the unit, please
read the following and pages 4 and 5 of this
manual thoroughly for proper use.
Warning
MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS.
Failure to make the proper connections may result in fire or
product damage.
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 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.
KEEP SMALL OBJECTS SUCH AS BATTERY OUT
OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.
Swallowing them may result in serious injury. If swallowed,
consult a physician immediately.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
10-EN
Installation and Connections
Precautions
Be sure to disconnect the cable from the (–) battery post
before installing your KCE-635UB. This will reduce any
chance of damage to the unit in case of a shortcircuit.
• Be sure to connect the color coded leads according to the
diagram. Incorrect connections may cause the unit to
malfunction or damage the vehicle’s electrical system.
• When making connections to the car’s electrical system, be
aware of the factory installed components (e.g. on-board
computer). Do not tap into these leads to provide power for
this unit. When connecting the KCE-635UB to the fuse box,
make sure the fuse for the intended circuit of the KCE635UB has the appropriate amperage. Failure to do so may
result in damage to the unit and/or the vehicle. When in
doubt, consult your ALPINE dealer.
• The KCE-635UB uses female RCA-type jacks for
connection to other units (e.g. amplifier) having RCA
connectors. You may need an adaptor to connect other units.
If so, please contact your authorized ALPINE dealer for
assistance.
Installation
Installing USB Mediaplayer
This USB Mediaplayer can be placed inside the trunk,
on the kick panel of the front passenger’s seat or
underdash. However, to avoid unnecessary signal
wiring, it is better to mount the device as close as
possible to the Display.
DO NOT MOUNT THE UNIT IN LOCATIONS
THAT WILL BE IN THE VICINITY OF MOISTURE
OR EXTREME HEAT (such as the engine
compartment).
