PRECAUTIONS

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

Do not operate your unit in ambient temperature above +70°C
(+158°F) or below -20°C (-4°F).

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. Do not attempt to load more than one disc at a time.

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.

Characteristics of LCD Panel

• 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 LCD panel is manufactured using an extremely high
precision manufacturing technology. Its effective pixel ratio
is over 99.99%. This means that 0.01% of the pixels could be

either always ON or OFF.

Using Wireless Headphones

If ACC or the monitor's power source is turned off, a loud noise is
produced through the headphones. Be sure to remove the wireless
headphones from your ears before you turn the monitor off.

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
