- This software is designed for use exclusively in the unit. 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.
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.
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.
USE THIS PRODUCT FOR MOBILE 12V APPLICATIONS.
Use for other than its designed application may result in fire, electric shock or other injury.
MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS.
Failure to make the proper connections may result in fire or product damage.
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 ALLOW CABLES TO BECOME ENTANGLED IN SURROUNDING OBJECTS.
Arrange wiring and cables in compliance with the manual to prevent obstructions when driving. Cables or wiring that obstruct or hang up on places such as the steering wheel, gear lever, brake pedals, etc. can be extremely hazardous.
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 DAMAGE PIPE OR WIRING WHEN DRILLING HOLES.
When drilling holes in the chassis for installation, take precautions so as not to contact, damage or obstruct pipes, fuel lines, tanks or electrical wiring. Failure to take such precautions may result in fire.
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.
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.

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 Center for repairing.
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.
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.

About the Crossover
Crossover (X-Over):
This unit is equipped with an active crossover. The crossover limits the frequencies delivered to the outputs. Each channel is controlled independently. Thus, each speaker pair can be driven by the frequencies for which they have been optimally designed.
The crossover adjusts the HPF (high pass filter) or LPF (low pass filter) of each band, and also the slope (how fast the filter rolls off the highs or lows).
Adjustments should be made according to the reproduction characteristics of the speakers. Depending on the speakers, a passive network may not be necessary. If you are unsure about this point, please consult your authorized Alpine dealer.
| Cut-off frequency (1/3 octave steps) | Slope | Level | |||
| HPF LPF | HPF LPF | ||||
| Subwoofer (LPF) | ---- | 20 Hz - 200 Hz | ---- | 0, 6, 12, 18, 24 dB/oct. | 0 to -12 dB |
| Rear speaker (HPF) | 20 Hz - 200 Hz | ---- | 0, 6, 12, 18, 24 dB/oct. | ---- | 0 to -12 dB |
| Front speaker (HPF) | 20 Hz - 200 Hz | ---- | 0, 6, 12, 18, 24 dB/oct. | ---- | 0 to -12 dB |

- LPF (low pass filter): Cuts the higher frequencies and allows the lower frequencies to pass.
- Slope: The level change (in dB) for a frequency change of one octave.
• The higher the slope value, the steeper the slope becomes. - Adjust the slope to FLAT to bypass the HP or LP filters.
- Do not use a tweeter without the HPF on or set to a low frequency, as it may cause damage to the speaker due to the low frequency content.
- Adjustment should be made according to the recommended crossover frequency of the connected speakers. Determine the recommended crossover frequency of the speakers. Adjusting to a frequency range outside that recommended may cause damage to the speakers. For the recommended crossover frequencies of Alpine speakers, refer to the respective Owner's Manual.
We are not responsible for damage or malfunction of speakers caused by using the crossover outside the recommended value.
About Time Correction
The distance between the listener and the speakers in a car vary widely due to the complex speaker placement. This difference in the distances from the speakers to the listener creates a shift in the sounds image and frequency characteristics. This is caused by the time delay between the sound reaching the listener's right versus the left ear.
To correct this, this unit is able to delay the audio signal to the speakers closest to the listener. This effectively creates a perception of increased distance for those speakers. The listener can be placed at an equal distance between the left and right speakers for optimum staging.
The adjustment will be made for each speaker in 3.4 cm steps.
Example 1. Listening Position: Front Left Seat
Adjust the time correction level of the front left speaker to a high value and the rear right to zero or a low value.

text_image
0.5m 2.25m 5.1msThe sound is not balanced because the distance between the listening position and the various speakers is different.
The difference in distance between the front left speaker and the rear right speaker is 1.75 m (68-7/8").
Here we calculate the time correction value for the front left speaker in the diagram on the above.
Conditions:
Farthest Speaker – listening position : 2.25 m (88-9/16")
Front left speaker – listening position : 0.5 m (19-11/16")
Calculation: L = 2.25 m - 0.5 m = 1.75 m (68-7/8")
Time correction = 1.75 ÷ 343* × 1,000 = 5.1 (ms)
* Speed of sound: 343 m/s (765 mph) at 20°C
In other words, giving the front left speaker a time correction value of 5.1 ms makes it seem as if its distance from the listener is the same as the distance to the farthest speaker.
Time correction eliminates the differences in the time required for the sound to reach the listening position.
The time of the front left speaker is corrected by 5.1 ms so that its sound reaches the listening position at the same time as the sound of other speakers.
Example 2. Listening Position: All Seats
Adjust the time correction level of each speaker to almost the same level.
1 Sit in the listening position (driver's seat, etc.) and measure the distance (in meters) between your head and the various speakers.
2 Calculate the difference between the distance correction value to the farthest speaker and the other speakers.
L = (distance to farthest speaker) - (distance to other speakers)
These values are the time correction values for the different speakers. Setting these values to make each sound reach the listening position at the same time as the sound of other speakers.

■ Indication mark meaning
When the car is put into reverse gear, the monitor switches to the rear view camera image. Guides appear to help visualize the car's width and distance from the rear bumper.

text_image
Diagram illustrating light reflection and refraction with labeled components and directional arrows① Car width extension marks (red, yellow and green in order of distance)
If properly calibrated, the marks indicate the car's width. This helps guide the car's path when backing up in a straight line.
The marks represent the distance from the rear of the car (from the rear end of the bumper).
- The marks do not move in synchronization with the steering wheel.
- Set the marks to suit the car's width.
② Distance guidance marks
The marks represent the distance from the rear of the car (from the rear end of the bumper).
-
The marks do not move in synchronization with the steering wheel.
• We recommend that you measure the actual distance to the marks when parked on a level surface. -
Depending on the condition of the car or road surface, the range of vision may vary.
- The camera has a limited range of vision. Objects at extreme angles to the camera (e.g. under the bumper or at opposite ends of the bumper) may not be in the its field-of-vision.
- The rear camera image may have a tint which is different from the actual surroundings.
- Depending on the car, the guidance may deviate to the right or left. This is not a malfunction.
Distance guidance mark
The distance guides represent the ground level distance from the rear bumper. It is difficult to accurately estimate the distance to objects above ground level.
In the following example, the distance to A is 0.5 m and the distance to B is 1 m.

text_image
C B A (about 0.5 m)
text_image
about 1 m A B CIn the screen, according to the distance guidance marks, the truck seems to be parked about 1 m away (at the position B). In actual fact, however, if you reversed to position A, you would collide with the truck.
In the screen, positions A, B and C seem to be located in order of proximity. However, in actual fact, the position A and C are the same distance, and B is farther away than positions A and C.
- The car width extension mark represents the distance to the road surface. The distance to an object on the road is not accurately represented by the guides.
Error between the screen and the actual road surface
In the following conditions, errors are produced between the screen guidance and the actual road surface. (The illustrations represent a case when the camera is installed in the standard position.)
When there is a steep upward slope behind the car (example)

text_image
- B - A +Distance guidance marks

text_image
Actual distances A B Error ErrorThe distance guidance mark represents the distance to a flat road surface. Therefore in the case of an upward slope behind the car, the distance guides are displayed closer to the rear bumper than the actual distance. For example, if there is an obstacle on the upward slope, it may appear farther away than its actual position.
Also, an error may occur between the guidance and the actual path of the car on the road surface.
■ When there is a steep downward slope behind the car (example)

text_image
- B + A
text_image
A B Error ErrorIn the case of a downward slope behind the car, the distance guides are displayed farther from the rear bumper than the actual distance.
If there is an obstacle on the downward slope, it seems closer than its actual position.
Also, an error may occur between the guidance and the actual path of the car on the road surface.

About the Supported Formats
About MP3/WMA/AAC/FLAC/WAV

CAUTION
Except for private use, duplicating audio data (including MP3/WMA/AAC/FLAC/WAV 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 realizes such high compression ratios by eliminating the sounds that are either inaudible to the human ear or masked by other sounds.
What is WMA?
WMA, or "Windows Media™ Audio," is compressed audio data. WMA is similar to MP3 audio data.
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 FLAC?
FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) is an audio file codec for lossless compression, developed and offered as open source software.
Codecs with lossy compression forms, such as MP3 and AAC, reduce part of the data to improve compression efficiency.
However, FLAC can reconstruct compressed data to be an identical copy of the original data by performing lossless compression. The compression ratio of FLAC is about 50%.
Method for creating MP3/WMA/AAC/FLAC/WAV (USB Flash drive) files
Audio data is compressed using software with MP3/WMA/AAC/FLAC/WAV (USB Flash drive) codecs. For details on creating MP3/WMA/AAC/FLAC/WAV (USB Flash drive) files, refer to the user's manual for that software.
MP3/WMA/AAC/FLAC/WAV (USB Flash drive) files that are playable on this device have the file extensions.
MP3: "mp3"
WMA: "wma"
AAC: "m4a"
FLAC: "flac"/"fla"
WAV: "wav"
WMA is not supported for the following files, Windows Media Audio Professional, Windows Media Audio 10 std or Windows Media Audio 10 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/FLAC/WAV (USB flash drive) 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.

WARNING

WARNING
This symbol means important instructions. Failure to heed them can result in serious injury or death.
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.
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.
USE THIS PRODUCT FOR MOBILE 12V APPLICATIONS.
Use for other than its designed application may result in fire, electric shock or other injury.
MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS.
Failure to make the proper connections may result in fire or product damage.
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 ALLOW CABLES TO BECOME ENTANGLED IN SURROUNDING OBJECTS.
Arrange wiring and cables in compliance with the manual to prevent obstructions when driving. Cables or wiring that obstruct or hang up on places such as the steering wheel, gear lever, brake pedals, etc. can be extremely hazardous.
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 DAMAGE PIPE OR WIRING WHEN DRILLING HOLES.
When drilling holes in the chassis for installation, take precautions so as not to contact, damage or obstruct pipes, fuel lines, tanks or electrical wiring. Failure to take such precautions may result in fire.
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.
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.

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 Center for repairing.
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 | This symbol means important instructions.Failure to heed them can result in injury or properly damages. |

WARNING
• 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.
- 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
• DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR ALTER. Doing so may result in an accident, fire or electric shock.
- 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 BLOCK VENTS OR RADIATOR PANELS. Doing so may cause heat to build up inside and may result in fire.
- MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS. Failure to make the proper connections may result in fire or product damage
- USE ONLY IN VEHICLES 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 ALLOW CABLESTO BECOME ENTANGLED IN SURROUNDING OBJECTS. Arrange wiring and cables in compliance with the manual to prevent obstructions when driving. Cables or wiring that obstruct or hang up on places such as the steering wheel, gear lever, brake pedals, etc. can be extremely hazardous.
- 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 DAMAGE PIPE OR WIRING WHEN DRILLING HOLES. When drilling holes in the chassis for installation, take precautions so as not to contact, damage or obstruct pipes, fuel lines, tanks or electrical wiring. Failure to take such precautions may result in fire.
- 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 BOLTS OR SCREWS OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN. Swallowing them may result in serious injury. If swallowed, consult a physician immediately.

CAUTION
- 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 Center for repairing.
- 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.

Introduction
Before making connections, be sure to turn the power off to all audio components. Connect the yellow battery lead from the amp directly to the positive (+) terminal of the vehicle's battery. Do not connect this lead to the fuse block.

CAUTION
◆ Caution on connection terminals/parts
- Keep electrically conductive objects away from the unit's terminals/parts (power terminals, fuses, speaker output terminals, RCA connectors, etc.). Doing so prevents a possible short circuit and damage to the unit.
- Use appropriate electrical source. The person installing this will choose the appropriate electrical source.
To prevent external noise from entering the audio system.
- Locate the unit and route the leads at least 10 cm (3-15/16") away from the car harness.
- Keep the battery power leads as far away from other leads as possible.
- Connect the ground lead securely to a bare metal spot
(remove any paint or grease if necessary) of the car chassis. - Your Alpine dealer knows best about noise prevention measures so consult your dealer for further information.
① Input/Output/Power Connector
② Input/Output/Power Wire Harness
③ Speaker Output Leads
Be sure to observe correct speaker output connections in the system. Connect the positive output (+) to the positive speaker terminal and the negative output (-) to the negative speaker terminal.
Note:
• Do not connect speaker leads together or to chassis ground.
④ Input Signal Leads
There are two options:
a) RCA Input Jacks
Connect these jacks to the line out leads on your head unit, you may or may not require extension cable.
b) Speaker Level Inputs
Cut off the RCA jacks, then connect the correct corresponding speaker outputs from the head unit directly to these twisted pair wires.
Note:
- For the "Speaker Level Input System" setting, connecting the Remote Turn-On Lead is not required due to the "REMOTE SENSING" function of this product. However, the "REMOTE SENSING" function may not work depending on the signal source connected. In such a case, connect the Remote Turn-On Lead to an incoming power supply wire (accessory power) in the ACC position.
⑤ Ground Lead (Black)
Connect this lead securely to a clean, bare metal spot on the vehicle's chassis. Verify this point to be a true ground by checking for continuity between that point and the negative (-) terminal of the vehicle's battery. Ground all your audio components to the same point on the chassis to prevent ground loops.
⑤ Battery Lead (Yellow)
Connect battery lead directly to BATT +
Be sure to add a 20A fuse (sold separately) as close as possible to the battery's (+) terminal.
⑦ Remote Turn-On Lead (Blue/White)
Connect this lead to the remote turn-on or power antenna (positive trigger, (+) 12V only) lead of your head unit.
CONNEXIONS (Fig. 1)
a) Slide switch 6 down for RCA
b) Slide switch 6 up for speaker
c) Refer to figure 2
⑨ Input Configuration Switch
a) Slide switch 5 up for 4 Ch. Mode
b) Slide switch 5 down for 2 Ch. bridged mode
Note:
- Input Configuration Switch should be in the left position for 2CH bridged output system.
⑩ High Pass Filter Selector Switches
Set the KTA-450 input gain to the minimum position. Using a dynamic CD as a source, increase the head unit volume until the output distorts. Then, reduce the volume 1 step (or until the output is no longer distorted).
Now, increase the amplifier gain until the sound from the speakers become distorted. Reduce the gain slightly so the sound is no longer distorted to achieve the optimum gain setting.
① Filter Selector Switches
Switch number 1 and 2 are for front channel filter settings. As shown the front filter is off.
| Switch section | Switch number | Function |
| A | 5 and 6 | Input configuration |
| B | 1 & 2, 3 & 4 | Filter configuration |
| C | N/A | Front/rear gain control |
A
| RCA Signal level | Switch 6 down | All Channels are affected |
| Speaker signal level | Switch 6 up | |
| 4 channel mode - normal | Switch 5 is up | 4 semi-independent Outputs. All are ground referenced |
| 2 channel mode - bridged | Switch 5 is down | BTL output |
ALTER Configuration B :

Filter off positions: front is switch 2 and 1 down. Rear is switch 4 and 3 down.

Filter is set for 60Hz high pass; switch 2 down and 1 is up. Rear is switch 4 is down and 3 is up.

Filter is set for 80Hz high pass; switch 2 up and 1 is down. Rear is switch 4 is up and 3 is down.

Filter is set for 80Hz high pass; switch 2 up and 1 is up. Rear is switch 4 is up and 3 is up.
| Function | Switch number & position | Function | Switch number & position |
| Front HPF off | 2 down & 1 down | Rear HPF off | 4 down & 3 down |
| Front HPF 60 Hz | 2 up & 1 down | Rear HPF 60 Hz | 4 up & 3 down |
| Front HPF 80 Hz | 2 down & 1 up | Rear HPF 80 Hz | 4 down & 3 up |
| Front HPF 120 Hz | 2 up & 1 up | Rear HPF 120 Hz | 4 up & 3 up |

Gain control C
The control is grouped as front 2 channels and rear 2 channels.
1. Full rated output is obtained with the appropriate settings.
2. Distortion can be had when the gain is set high in combination of high level input.
a. Example having the speaker level connection with the gain control set for RCA.
If your head unit does not have a traditional amplifier turn-on lead, refer to the options below for connection.
Please check your head unit for the conditions listed below: (Fig. 3)
a. The head unit does not have a remote turn-on or power antenna lead.
b. The head unit's power antenna lead is activated only when the radio is on (turns off in Bluetooth or CD mode).
c. The head unit's power antenna lead is logic level output (+) 5V, negative trigger (grounding type), or cannot sustain (+) 12V when connected to other equipment in addition to the vehicle's power antenna. If any of the above conditions exist, the remote turn-on lead of your KTA-450 must be connected to a switched power source (ignition) in the vehicle. Be sure to use a 3A fuse as close as possible to this ignition tap. Using this connection method, the KTA-450 will turn on and stay on as long as the ignition switch is on.
If this is objectionable, a SPST (Single Pole, Single Throw) switch, in addition to the 3A fuse mentioned above, may be installed in-line on the KTA-450 turn-on lead. This switch will then be used to turn on (and off) the KTA-450. Therefore, the switch should be mounted so that is accessible by the driver. Make sure the switch is turned off when the vehicle is not running. Otherwise, the amplifier will remain on and drain the battery.
