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. 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. Max 1cm incursionMax 4cm incursionNo restriction Zone B Zone A Suggested position6 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.7
