Alpine PXA-H701 owner manual Precautions, 31-EN

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.

Precautions

•Be sure to disconnect the cable from the (–) battery post before installing your PXA-H701. This will reduce any chance of damage to the unit in case of a short-circuit.

•Be sure to connect the color coded leads according to the diagram. Incorrect connections may cause the unit to malfunction or damage to the vehicle’s electrical system.

•When making connections to the vehicle’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 PXA-H701 to the fuse box, make sure the fuse for the intended circuit of the PXA-H701 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 PXA-H701 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.

Wiring Connections

Improper wiring connections could cause serious damage to your audio system. Be sure you:

1.DO NOT connect (–) wires from left and right speakers together.

2.DO NOT ground any speaker wires.

3.DO NOT run wires where they may be pinched or cut.

4.DO NOT leave bare speaker terminals exposed. They may contact the vehicle chassis and cause a short.

Fuse

When replacing the fuse(s), the replacement fuse 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. Do not attempt to repair the unit yourself; return it to your Alpine dealer or nearest Alpine Service Station for servicing.

Temperature

In order to ensure proper performance, be sure the temperature in your vehicle is above 14°F (–10°C) and below 140°F (60°C) before turning your unit on. Good air circulation is essential to prevent internal heat build-up in the unit.
