Operating Instructions
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 (and illegal in many states) 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.
DO NOT PLACE HANDS, FINGERS OR FOREIGN OBJECTS IN
INSERTION SLOTS OR GAPS.
Doing so may result in personal injury or damage to the product.
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.
NOTICE
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
Be sure the temperature inside the vehicle is between +45°C
(+113°F) and 0°C (+32°F) before turning your unit on.

WARNING
WARNING
This symbol means important instructions.
Failure to heed them can result in serious injury
or death.
CAUTION
This symbol means important instructions.
Failure to heed them can result in injury or
material property damage.

6-EN
Operation of some of the functions of this unit is very complex.
Because of this, it was deemed necessary to place these functions
into a special screen. This will restrict operation of these functions
to times when the vehicle is parked. This ensures the focus of the
driver’s attention will be on the road and not on the iLX-107. This
has been done for the safety of the driver and passengers.
Some setup operations cannot be made if the car is moving. The car
must be parked and the parking brake must be engaged for the
procedure described in the Owner’s Manual to be valid. The
warning “Unable to operate while driving.” will be displayed if any
attempts are made to perform these operations while driving.
•The iLX-107 draws minimal current even when its power switch is
turned off. If the switched power (ignition) lead of the iLX-107 is
connected directly to the positive (+) post of the vehicle’s battery, the
battery may be discharged.
An SPST (Single-Pole, Single-Throw) switch (sold separately) can be
added to simplify this procedure. Then, you can simply place it in the
OFF position when you leave the vehicle. Turn the SPST switch back
ON before using the iLX-107. For connecting the SPST switch, refer
to the “Connection Diagram of SPST Switch (sold separately)”
(page 33). If the power (ignition) lead is unswitched, it must be
disconnected from the battery post should the vehicle be left unused
for an extended period of time.
Protecting the USB connector
• Only an iPhone 5 or later or Flash memory can be connected to
the USB connector on this unit. Correct performance using other
USB products cannot be guaranteed.
• If the USB connector is used, be sure to use only the supplied
connector cable with the unit. A USB hub is not supported.
• USB Flash memory is used for data file transfer or updates only.
• This unit does not support Flash memory’s Audio/Video
playback or photo browse.
•iPhone, iTunes and CarPlay are trademarks of Apple Inc.,

About the Rear Camera Guide
To display the guide, set “Guide Display On/Off Setting” (page 14) to
On. Also, to adjust the guide, refer to “Adjusting the Rear Camera
Guide” (page 23). You can also turn off the guide in the Rear camera
display screen.
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.
1Car 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 (at
the end of the bumper).
Camera Operation
(Optional)
You can adjust the quality of the camera image.
Setting items: Brightness / Color / Contrast
Refer to “Display Setup Operation” (page 19).

•The marks do not move in synchronization with the
steering wheel.
•Set the marks to suit the car’s width.
2Distance guidance marks
The marks represent the distance from the rear of the car
(from the 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.
<Screen>
<Positions of A, B and C>
In 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.
•In the following conditions, screen visibility may be impaired. This is
not a malfunction.
-When it is dark (during the night, etc.).
-Under very high or very low temperature conditions.
-When water drops adhere to the camera, or when the humidity
is high (such as rainy weather, etc.).
-When foreign bodies (such as mud, etc.) adhere to the camera
or its peripheral area.
-When sunlight or headlights directly strike the camera lens.
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)
<Screen>
<Situation of the car>
The 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.
