DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR ALTER.
Doing so may result in an accident, fire or electric shock.
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.
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.
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 ORSTEERING 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.
DO NOT INSTALL THE MONITOR NEAR THE PASSENGER SEAT AIR BAG.
If the unit is not installed correctly the air bag may not function
correctly and when triggered the air bag may cause the monitor to
spring upwards causing an accident and injuries.
HAVE THE WIRING ANDINSTALLATION 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.
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.

Precautions
• Be sure to disconnect the cable from the (–) battery post before
installing your unit. 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 unit to the fuse box, make sure the
fuse for the intended circuit of the unit has the appropriate
amperage. When in doubt, consult your Alpine dealer.
• The unit 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.
• Be sure to connect the speaker (–) leads to the speaker (–)
terminal. Never connect left and right channel speaker cables to
each other or to the vehicle body.

Installation
Angle of installation
Install at an angle between horizontal and 30°. Note that installing at
an angle outside of this range will result in a loss of performance and
possibly damage.
1Clean the mounting location.
2Put on the GPS Antenna mounting plate.
3Mount the GPS Antenna.
• Do not mount the GPS Antenna inside the center console.
- Mount the GPS Antenna on a flat plane of the dash board or rear
tray.
- Make sure the GPS Antenna is not covered (obstructed) by any
metallic surface or object.
• If the GPS Antenna is mounted near the unit, the reception becomes
poor, and the location of your vehicle may not be displayed correctly.
- Mount the GPS Antenna far away enough from the unit.
- Bundle the GPS Antenna cable away from the rear of the unit.
• Some thermal reflection type or thermal absorption type glass may
interrupt high frequency waves. If reception is poor with the antenna
installed inside the car, try to mount the antenna outside the car.
For safe use, make sure of the following:
•Location is stable and firm.
•Driver’s view and operations are not obstructed.
•Microphone is located where the driver’s voice can be easily
picked up (for example, on the sun visor).
When you speak into the microphone, you should not have to change
your driving posture. This may cause a distraction, taking your
attention away from safely driving your vehicle. Carefully consider
direction and distance while mounting the microphone. Confirm that
the driver’s voice can be easily picked up at the selected location.
X208U user
To install the X208U, refer to the manual in the separately
purchased installation kit for each car type.
Caution
Do not block the unit’s fan, thus preventing air circulation. If
blocked, heat will accumulate inside the unit and may cause
a fire.
