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

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 WATCH VIDEO WHILE DRIVING.  
Watching the video may distract the driver from looking ahead of

CAUTION  
This symbol means important instructions.  
Failure to heed them can result in injury or  
material property damage.  
DO NOT OPERATE ANY FUNCTION THAT TAKES YOUR  
ATTENTION AWAY FROM SAFELY DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE.

PRECAUTIONS  
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.  
Moisture Condensation  
You may notice the disc playback sound wavering due to  
condensation. If this happens, remove the disc from the player and  
wait about an hour for the moisture to evaporate.  
Maintenance  
If you have problems, do not attempt to repair the unit yourself.  
Return it to your Alpine dealer or the nearest Alpine Service  
Station for servicing.  
Installation Location  
Make sure the VPA-B222R will not be installed in a location  
subjected to:  
Direct sun and heat  
High humidity and water  
Excessive dust  
Excessive vibrations  
Alpine products equipped with the Ai-NET bus, connected to the  
VPA-B222R, can be operated from the VPA-B222R. Depending on  
the products connected, the functions and displays will vary. For  
details, consult your Alpine dealer.  
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 VPA-B222R.  
This has been done for the safety of the driver and passengers.  
Audio Processor Adjustments 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 “CAN’T OPERATE WHILE DRIVING,” will be  
displayed if any attempts are made to perform these operations  
while driving.

Interruption  
Setting the Interrupt Type of the Speaker  
Input Voice  
With an Alpine navigation system connected to the VPA-B222R, the

play. Also, the setting of interruption of the speaker input voice can be  
adjusted.  
The following explanation is how to set the voice interrupt type of the  
speaker input. When the navigation voice guidance is made to interrupt,  
set to DEMAND, and the telephone voice is made to interrupt, set to  
MUTE, these are recommended.

off.  
ON: The navigation/speaker input interruption mode is on.  
DEMAND: When speaker input interruption occurs, voice  
interruption may be too high or too low, adjust the  
source volume so voice interruption can be heard. If  
no speaker input interruption occurs for 5 seconds,  
source volume returns to the level you initially set.  
When speaker input interruption occurs again,  
source volume level automatically returns to the last  
one you set.  
Adjusting the Speaker Input's Interruption  
Detection Level  
You can set the level for voice interruption.  
Setting items: FACT SYS DET  
Setting level: 1 to 15  
When the setting level is low, the voice interrupts even if a low  
volume level is set on the system  
MUTE:  
To avoid voice interruption not being heard clearly,  
this setting mutes the current source sound  
whenever speaker input interruption occurs. In this  
setting, even when voice interruption cannot be  
heard clearly, you can still set the volume by the  
commander. When speaker input interruption occurs,  
the commander buttons blink. Press SOURCE/  
POWER to cancel voice interruption.  
The setting can be made when INT or BOTH is set in "Setting the  
Speaker Input Mode" (page 16).  
Warning beeps such as for seat belts may also output from the  
speakers, depending to the car. Make sure that voice interruption  
sounds correctly in such a car.  
We recommend initially setting the level to 8. Set the voice  
interruption level to more than 8 if interruption is too frequent, or set  
it to less than 8 if interruption is not frequent enough.  
The setting can be made when INT or BOTH is set in "Setting the  
Speaker Input Mode" (page 16).

When the speaker is set to the “OFF” mode, the TCR for that  
speaker cannot be set. Refer to “Setting the Speakers” (page 32).  
The adjustment value for FRONT2 (Speakers) which is adjusted in  
time correction, is also applied to the front speakers in “Setting Bass  
Focus” (page 36).  
Calculation:  
The adjustment (AUTO TCR) cannot be automatically set on this  
unit.  
L = 2.25 m (88-3/4") – 0.5 m (20")= 1.75 m (68-3/4")  
Compensation time = 1.75 ÷ 343 x 1000 = 5.1 (ms)  
In other words, setting the time correction value for the front left  
speaker to 5.1 (ms) sets a virtual distance matching the  
distance to the farthest speaker.

Graphic Equalizer Adjustments  
Parametric Equalizer Adjustments  
The graphic equalizer allows you to modify the sound using 31 bands  
each for the front (left and right), rear (left and right) and centre  
speakers. An additional 10 bands are available for the subwoofer. This  
allows you to customize the sound to suit your taste.  
The frequency bands of the graphic equalizer are fixed. This makes it  
very difficult to correct for undesired peaks and dips at specific  
frequencies. The parametric equalizer’s centre frequency can be tuned  
to these specific frequencies. Then, the bandwidth (Q) and level are  
fine-tuned, independently, to make the necessary corrections. The  
parametric equalizer function is an advanced tool for serious  
audiophiles.

Installation and Connections  
Before installing or connecting the unit, please read the  
following and pages 4 to 5 of this manual thoroughly for  
proper use.  
Caution  
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.  
Warning  
MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS  
Failure to make the proper connections may result in fire or product  
damage.  
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.  
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  
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 wires insulation from being cut by  
the metal edge of the hole.  
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 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.  
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.  
Precautions  
DO NOT DAMAGE PIPE OR WIRING WHEN DRILLING  
Be sure to disconnect the cable from the (–) battery post before  
installing your VPA-B222R. This will reduce any chance of  
damage to the unit in case of a short-circuit.  
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.  
Be sure to connect the colour 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 VPA-B222R to the fuse box, make  
sure the fuse for the intended circuit of the VPA-B222R 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.  
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.  
The VPA-B222R 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.  
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.

If your vehicle has no ACC power supply, add an SPST (Single-Pole, Single-Throw) switch (sold separately) and fuse (sold separately).  
The diagram and the fuse amperage shown above are in the case when VPA-B222R is used individually.  
If the switched power (ignition) lead of the VPA-B222R is connected directly to the positive (+) post of the vehicles battery, the VPA-B222R draws  
some current (several hundred milliamperes) even when its switch is placed in the OFF position and the battery may be discharged.

Connect the supplied pinch connector.  
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.

dell’ingresso secondo l’impostazione del canale di rilevamento (F.SYS INT CH.). Consultare “Impostazione del canale di  
rilevamento dell’interruzione altoparlanti” (pagina 17).  
Il volume di interruzione dell’impianto di fabbrica della vettura è troppo basso.  
- 1) Se è collegato un processore audio esterno, impostare la guida vocale su 15. Consultare “Regolazione del volume della voce  
GUIDE” (pagina 12).  
- 2) Se la guida vocale del sistema di navigazione o l’audio del telefono dell’impianto di fabbrica della vettura sono attivi, impostare  
il livello di volume dell’ingresso altoparlanti (FACT SYS LV). L’audio dovrebbe essere udibile in modo chiaro, ma il livello non  
deve superare 15. Regolare il volume dell’impianto di fabbrica della vettura, se necessario. Consultare “Visualizzazione del  
livello di volume dell’ingresso altoparlanti” (pagina 16).  
Se il livello di volume dell’ingresso altoparlanti è inferiore al livello di rilevamento (FACT SYS DET), l’interruzione non sarà  
effettuata. Consultare “Regolazione del livello di rilevamento interruzioni nell’ingresso altoparlanti” (pagina 17).  
Linterruzione si verifica troppo spesso perché il livello di rilevamento è troppo basso.  
- Aumentare il livello di rilevamento interruzioni (FACT SYS DET). Consultare “Regolazione del livello di rilevamento interruzioni  
nell’ingresso altoparlanti” (pagina 17).  
Linterruzione non si verifica con la frequenza dovuta se il livello di rilevamento è troppo basso.  
- Ridurre il livello di rilevamento interruzioni (FACT SYS DET). Consultare “Regolazione del livello di rilevamento interruzioni  
nell’ingresso altoparlanti” (pagina 17).  
La sorgente è impostata su FACTORY SYS.  
- Passare a un’altra sorgente. Se la sorgente è impostata su FACTORY SYS durante l’ascolto dall’impianto audio di fabbrica, l’audio  
viene inviato su tutti gli altoparlanti senza interrompere l’altoparlante anteriore per la guida vocale del sistema di navigazione o le  
telefonate.  
IT  
Secondo il tipo di suoneria del telefono, l’interruzione potrebbe non essere riconosciuta.  
- Ridurre il livello di rilevamento interruzioni (FACT SYS DET) o cambiare la suoneria del telefono. Consultare “Regolazione del  
livello di rilevamento interruzioni nell’ingresso altoparlanti” (pagina 17).  
Secondo la vettura in uso, il volume del telefono viene abbassato automaticamente. In questo caso, l’interruzione non viene  
riconosciuta.  
- Ridurre il livello di rilevamento interruzioni (FACT SYS DET) in base al livello dell’impianto di fabbrica della vettura. Consultare  
“Regolazione del livello di rilevamento interruzioni nell’ingresso altoparlanti” (pagina 17).  
Il volume di interruzione del sistema di navigazione della vettura è troppo alto o troppo basso.  
Il volume non è regolato correttamente.  
- Impostare adeguatamente il volume dell’interruzione (FACT SYS MIX). Consultare “Regolazione del livello di interruzione  
nell’ingresso altoparlanti” (pagina 17).  
Il volume della sorgente è troppo alto o troppo basso durante l’interruzione per la navigazione dell’impianto della  
vettura.  
Il volume non è regolato correttamente.  
- Durante l’interruzione della voce di navigazione, regolare il volume della sorgente d’ascolto corrente utilizzando la manopola di  
comando. Alla successiva interruzione da parte della voce di navigazione, il volume corrisponderà a quello della sorgente regolata.  
Durante un’interruzione della voce di navigazione dell’impianto dell’audio, il volume della sorgente cambia.  
Il volume della sorgente è stato regolato durante un’interruzione della voce di navigazione.  
- Durante un’interruzione della voce di navigazione, regolare il volume desiderato utilizzando la manopola di comando.  
Se il volume della sorgente viene regolato durante un’interruzione della voce di navigazione, tale volume viene memorizzato e il  
volume della sorgente viene regolato alla successiva interruzione della voce di navigazione.  
Linterruzione della navigazione sull’impianto della vettura non viene annullata.  
Viene emessa la voce di navigazione.  
- Linterruzione della navigazione non può essere annullata sull’unità. 5 secondi dopo l’uso della navigazione e la conclusione della  
guida vocale, l’interruzione viene annullata e il volume della sorgente ritorna al livello precedentemente regolato.  
Il volume di interruzione del telefono della vettura è troppo alto o troppo basso.  
Il volume non è regolato correttamente.  
- Durante l’interruzione del telefono, regolare il volume in modo adeguato utilizzando la manopola di comando. Alla successiva  
interruzione del telefono, il volume verrà regolato automaticamente su tale livello (per quanto riguarda la visualizzazione del  
volume, viene visualizzato il volume della sorgente e non quello di interruzione del telefono).  
Linterruzione del telefono sull’impianto della vettura non viene annullata.  
Viene emessa la voce del telefono.  
- Se il volume del telefono è superiore al livello di rilevamento interruzioni (FACT SYS DET), la voce del telefono interrompe la  
riproduzione anche se l’interruzione è stata annullata. Premere SOURCE/POWER dopo aver riagganciato e annullare l’interruzione  
del telefono.  
Laudio non viene emesso nonostante sia visualizzata la schermata della sorgente.

L Lägg till följande inställningar och funktioner under ”Felsökning” i användarhandledning (sidan 46) för  
FABRIKSSYSTEM (högtalaringång).  
Högtalaringångens ljud är förvrängt.  
Fabrikssystemet har redan justerats.  
- Om inställningar av bilens fabrikssystem, BASS, TREBLE, LOUDNESS etc., utförs i högtalaringångens läge, är det lätt att  
fabrikssystemets ljud förvrängs. Återställ därför ovan nämnda inställningar.  
Volymen justeras inte korrekt.  
- Ställ in högtalaringångens volym (FACT SYS LV) på lägre än 15. Sänk därefter bilens fabrikssystems volym så att ljudet inte  
förvrängs. Se ”Visa högtalaringångens volymnivå” (sidan 16).  
Funktionsstörning.  
En funktionsstörning orsakad av bruset i högtalaringångens kabel uppstår.  
- Linda upp och dra högtalaringångens e och d -kablar. Det kan orsaka brus om högtalaringångens kablar dras separat.  
Volymen i bilens ljudsystem är för hög/låg.  
Volymen justeras inte korrekt.  
- Välj FACTORY SYS på skärmen för val av källa och justera volymen med hjälp av fjärrkontrollen.  
Avbrott fungerar inte som det ska.  
Högtalaringången är inte korrekt inställd för att upptäcka fabrikssystemet.  
- Kontrollera att högtalarkabeln för bilens fabrikssystem är ordentligt ansluten. Bekräfta att ingången valts korrekt i enlighet med  
detekteringskanalens inställning (F.SYS INT CH.). Se “Ställ in kanal för högtalaravbrott” (sidan 17).  
Avbrottsvolym för bilens fabrikssystem är för låg.  
- 1) När en extern ljudprocessor är ansluten ska GUIDE-rösten ställas in på 15. Se “Justering av volym för GUIDE-röst” (sidan 12).  
- 2) Ställ in högtalaringångens volym (FACT SYS LV) när navigationens röstvägledning eller telefonens ljud i bilens fabrikssystem är  
ON. Ljudet ska höras tydligt men nivån bör inte överstiga 15. Justera volymen för bilens fabrikssystem vid behov. Se ”Visa  
högtalaringångens volymnivå” (sidan 16).  
Om nivån på högtalaringångens volym är lägre än detekteringsnivån (FACT SYS DET) sker inget avbrott. Se ”Justering av  
högtalaringångens avbrottsnivå” (sidan 17).  
Avbrott sker för ofta eftersom detekteringsnivån är för lågt inställd.  
- Höj detekteringsnivån för avbrott (FACT SYS DET). Se ”Justering av högtalaringångens avbrottsnivå” (sidan 17).  
Avbrott sker inte ofta nog om detekteringsnivån är för högt inställd.  
- Sänk detekteringsnivån för avbrott (FACT SYS DET). Se ”Justering av högtalaringångens avbrottsnivå” (sidan 17).  
Källan ställs in på FACTORY SYS.  
- Byt till annan källa. Om källan är inställd på FACTORY SYS medan man lyssnar på fabriksljudsystemet, matas ljudet ut till alla  
högtalarna utan att avbryta främre högtalaren för navigationens röstvägledning eller telefonröst.  
Beroende på vilken typ av ringsignal telefonen har kan det hända att avbrottet inte godkänns.  
- Sänk detekteringsnivån för avbrott (FACT SYS DET) eller byt telefonens ringsignal. Se ”Justering av högtalaringångens  
avbrottsnivå” (sidan 17).  
Telefonens volym sänks beroende på vilken typ av bil du har. Därför godkänns inte avbrottet.  
- Sänk detekteringsnivån för avbrott (FACT SYS DET) baserat på nivån för bilens fabrikssystem. Se ”Justering av högtalaringångens  
avbrottsnivå” (sidan 17).  
Avbrottsvolymen för bilens navigationssystem är för hög/låg.  
Volymen är inte korrekt justerad.  
- Ställ in avbrottsvolymen (FACT SYS MIX) ungefärligt. Se ”Justering av högtalaringångens nivå för röstavbrott” (sidan 17).  
SE  
Källans volym är för hög/låg under bilsystemets navigationsavbrott.  
Volymen är inte korrekt justerad.  
- Vid avbrott av navigationsrösten justeras volymen för aktuell ljudkälla med hjälp av fjärrkontrollen. Nästa gång navigationsrösten  
avbryts motsvarar volymen den justerade källans.  
När bilsystemets navigationsröst avbryter ändras källans volym.  
Källans volym justerades under navigationsröstens avbrott.  
- Vid ett avbrott av navigationsrösten justeras den önskade volymen med hjälp av fjärrkontrollen.  
Om källans volym justeras under ett avbrott av navigationsrösten lagras dess volym och källans volym justeras nästa gång  
navigationsrösten avbryts.  
Bilsystemets navigationsavbrott avbryts inte.  
Navigationsrösten matas ut.  
- Navigationsavbrott kan inte avbrytas på enheten. Fem sekunder efter att du använt navigationen och avslutat vägledningen avslutas  
avbrottet och källans volym återgår till föregående nivå.  
Volymen för bilsystemets telefonavbrott är för hög/låg.  
Volymen är inte korrekt justerad.  
- ustera volymen med fjärrkontrollen under telefonavbrottet. Vid nästa telefonavbrott kommer volymen automatiskt att justeras till den  
nivån (när det gäller visningen av volymen så visas inte telefonavbrottets volym, trots att källans volym visas).  
Bilsystemets telefonavbrott avbryts inte.  
Telefonrösten matas ut.  
- Om telefonens volym är högre än avbrottets detekteringsnivå (FACT SYS DET), avbryter telefonrösten igen även då avbrottet  
avslutats. Tryck på SOURCE/POWER efter att du lagt på och avsluta telefonens avbrott.  
Även om skärmbilden för källan visas matas inget ljud ut.  
Telefonen avbryter.  
- 1) Se till att fjärrkontrollen blinkar snabbt och lägg på luren.  
- 2) Tryck på SOURCE/POWER och avsluta telefonens avbrott.  
Funktionen kan inte utföras på enheten.  
Telefonen avbryter.  
- När högtalaringångens läge (FACT SYS SET) är inställt på INT eller BOTH, eller om typen av röstavbrott (F.SYS MIX TYP) är  
inställd på MUTE, kommer telefonen att avbryta om bilsystemets ljud sätts på i en annan källa än FACTORY SYS.  
Tryck på SOURCE/POWER efter att bilsystemets ljud stängts av, och avsluta telefonens avbrott. Se “Inställning av högtalaringång”  
(sidan 16) och “Inställning av avbrottstyp för högtalarens inmatningsröst” (sidan 17).
