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 the SE disc to be out of standard specifications and may create operational problems. We recommend not using these accessories on discs played in Alpine CD players.

Irregular Shaped Discs

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

To prevent external noise from entering the audio system. Locate the unit and route the leads at least 10 cm 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, dirt or grease if necessary) of the car chassis. If you add an optional noise suppressor, connect it as far away from the unit as possible. Your Alpine dealer carries various noise suppressors, contact them for further information. Your Alpine dealer knows best about noise prevention measures so consult your dealer for further information.

Footnotes:

Uses commercially available mini jack input (3.5mm) Are NOT Versatile-link Ready but include a mute mode feature--- YOU MUST check radio harness for a pink/black wire before making a purchase. These adapters take the place of the Alpine CD Changer. If you have a cd changer it must be disconnected and will no longer function. In order for the radio to recognize the adapter, you must enable "AUX" input option from within the menu.
Much of the above list includes older Alpine Radios, for newer models please email us with a model number, check the manual or contact Alpine USA for details.
