New Discs

PRECAUTIONS

As a protective measure to prevent the disc from jamming, the

DVD player will automatically eject discs with irregular surfaces

or inserted incorrectly. When a new disc is inserted into the

player and ejected after initial loading, using your finger, feel

around the inside of the center hole and outside edge of the disc.

If you feel any small bumps or irregularities, this could inhibit

proper loading of the disc. To remove the bumps, rub the inside

edge of the hole and outside edge of the disc with a ball-point pen

or other such instrument, then insert the disc again.

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.

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.

Excessive vibrations

Correct Handling

Never Attempt the Following

Do not drop the disc while handling. Hold the disc so you will

not leave fingerprints on the surface. Do not affix tape, paper, or

gummed labels to the disc. Do not write on the disc.

Do not grip or pull out the disc while it is being pulled back into

the player by the automatic reloading mechanism.

Do not attempt to insert a disc into the unit when the unit power

is off.

CORRECT

INCORRECT

CORRECT

Inserting Discs

Your player accepts only one disc at a time for playback. Do not

attempt to load more than one disc.

Make sure the label side is facing up when you insert the disc.

Your player will automatically eject any disc that is inserted

incorrectly. If the player continues to eject a correctly inserted

disc, push the RESET switch with a pointed object such as a

ballpoint pen.

Disc Cleaning

Fingerprints, dust, or soil on the surface of the disc could cause

the DVD player to skip. For routine cleaning, wipe the playing

surface with a clean, soft cloth from the center of the disc to the

outer edge. If the surface is heavily soiled, dampen a clean, soft

cloth in a solution of mild neutral detergent before cleaning the

disc.

Playing a disc while driving on a very bumpy road may result in

skips, but this will not scratch the disc or damage the player.

Irregular Shaped Discs

Be sure to use round shaped discs only for this unit and never use

any special shaped discs.

Use of special shaped discs may cause damage to the mechanism.

Playable Discs

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

operational problems. We recommend not using these accessories

on discs played in Alpine DVD players.

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

IVA-D300. This has been done for the safety of the driver and

passengers.

Title Input and 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.

Multisession CD-R/RW:

Discs that cannot be played

Once a recording has been stopped, this is considered one

session. If the disc is not closed (finalized), additional data may

be added. Once this additional data has been recorded, this

becomes a “multisession” CD. The IVA-D300 can only read

multisession DATA Formatted discs (MP3/WMA files - Not

Audio CD files).

DVD-ROMs, DVD-RAMs, DVD + Rs, DVD + RWs, CD-ROMs

(excluding MP3/WMA files), photo CDs, etc.

DVD region number (playable region number)

This DVD player will play back any disc whose region number is

1 (or All). DVDs with a region number other than those listed

below, cannot be played on this DVD player.

MP3 ID3 Tag/WMA Tag Information:

The IVA-D300 read and displays MP3 ID3v1 tag or WMA tag

information. MP3 files created with ID3v2 tag information can be

played back but the tag info cannot be read or displayed.

ALL

Properly formatted MP3/WMA Discs:

Use ISO9660 formatting to insure proper playback. You may use

standard ISO naming Level 1 (8.3 DOS standard), Level 2 (32

characters) or Joliet (Windows or Macintosh long filenames) file

naming conventions*.

Video CDs

This DVD head unit is compatible with playback control (PBC)

compatible video CDs (version 2.0).

“PBC” is a function by which you can use menu screens recorded

on the disc to find the scene you want to watch and view various

types of information in dialog style.

*Please consult the Owner’s manual for additional information.

On handling compact discs (CD/CD-R/CD-RW)

• Do not touch the surface.

• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight.

• Do not affix stickers or labels.

• Clean the disc when it is dusty.

• Make sure that the disc is smooth and flat.

• Do not use commercially available disc accessories.

Using compact discs (CD/CD-R/CD-RW)

If you use unspecified compact discs, correct performance cannot

be guaranteed.

You can play CD-Rs (CD-Recordable)/CD-RWs (CD-

ReWritable) which have been recorded only on audio devices.

You can also play CD-Rs/CD-RWs containing MP3/WMA

formatted audio files.

Do not leave the disc in the car or the unit for a long time.

Never expose the disc to direct sunlight.

Heat and humidity may damage the disc and you may not be

able to play it again.

• Some of the following discs may not play on this unit:

Flawed discs, discs with fingerprints, discs exposed to extreme

temperatures or sunlight (e.g., left in the car or this unit), discs

recorded under unstable conditions, discs on which a recording

failed or a re-recording was attempted, copy-protected CDs

which do not conform to the audio CD industry standard.

• Use discs with MP3/WMA files written in a format compliant

with this unit. For details, see pages 15 and 16.

Using DVD-Rs/DVD-RWs

This unit is compatible only with discs recorded in the DVD-

Video mode.

•

Discs recorded in the DVD-VR mode cannot be played back.

Note that discs not finalized (processed to enable to play on

playback-only DVD players) cannot be played on this DVD

player.

Some discs may not play back, depending on the recording

device. (This unit has a copy protection function. Discs copied

illegally will not be played back. Some files recorded by a

software using an improper recording system may be

recognized as illegally copied.)

To customers using CD-R/CD-RW

• If a CD-R/CD-RW cannot be played back, make sure the last

recording session was closed (finalized).

• Finalize the CD-R/CD-RW if necessary, and attempt playback

again.

Tips for making your own CDs

The IVA-D300 plays DVD Video, Video CD, Audio CD and has a

built in MP3/WMA decoder.

•

In the following cases, the disc may not play on this unit:

discs recorded by certain DVD recorders, certain irregular

discs, flawed discs, dirty discs, when the pickup lens of this

DVD player is dirty, or when moisture condensation has

occurred inside the unit.

Be sure to follow all cautions included with your DVD-Rs/

DVD-RWs discs.

Do not put stickers, seals, or tape on the label side of DVD-Rs/

DVD-RWs.

The following information is designed to help you create your

own music CDs (either Audio CD or MP3/WMA encoded CD-R/

RW files).

What is the difference between an Audio and MP3/WMA

CD?

An Audio CD is the same format as the commercial CDs you buy

in the store (also known as CD-DA). MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer

3)/WMA (Windows Media Audio) is a data file that uses a

compression scheme to reduce the size of the music file.*

•

Compared to the regular discs, DVD-Rs/DVD-RWs are more

affected by heat, moisture, and direct sunlight. If left in a car,

etc., damage may occur and it might not play on this unit.

Hybrid Audio CD and Data (MP3/WMA) CD-R/RW discs:

The IVA-D300 can read either sector on the disc. Choose CD-DA

to play the CD audio section or MP3/WMA to play the MP3/

WMA section.*

The IVA-D300 draws minimal current even when its power switch

is turned off. If the switched power (ignition) lead of the IVA-D300

is connected directly to the positive (+) post of the vehicle's

battery, the battery may be discharged. If this lead is unswitched, it

must be disconnected from the battery post should the vehicle be

left unused for an extended period of time.

Adjusting the Volume

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 IVA-D300. For connecting the

SPST switch, refer to the “Connection Diagram of SPST switch”

(page 69).

Some operation of the unit cannot be performed while the vehicle is

in motion. In this case, be sure to first stop your vehicle and apply

the parking brake, then perform the operation.

Adjust the volume by turning the Rotary encoder.

The unit beeps 3 times and closes the monitor

automatically.

Touch button operation

The display unit is equipped with tactile feedback

(PULSETOUCH^TM).

•

Opening/closing the monitor should never be performed manually.

It may cause a malfunction.

What is the tactile feedback (PULSETOUCH^TM) ?

When you touch a button graphic in the display, you will

feel a mild vibration and click on the display panel surface.

This feedback enables you to easily identify action areas in

the display.

The monitor's angle is set to 90 degrees at the factory. Depending

on the car, the monitor may hit the dashboard when opened. The

monitor's angle can be adjusted and stored in memory so that the

monitor will not hit the dashboard when opening. For adjusting the

monitor, refer to "Adjusting the monitor Angle" on page 26.

Even when the vehicle's battery power is removed, the adjusted

monitor angle remains stored in memory.

The IVA-D300 is a precision device. With gentle handling, its

unique capabilities can be enjoyed for a long time.

If the monitor touches anything while it is being opened (or

closed), the monitor will stop opening (or closing) immediately.

Should this occur, remove the obstacle and press and hold OPEN

for at least 2 seconds again to lower the monitor.

•

Be sure to touch the button lightly with the pad of your finger on

the display to protect the display.

If you touch a button and there is no reaction, remove your finger

from the display once, and try again.

When the movable monitor is opened, do not place any object on

the monitor and be careful not to bump or apply any pressure to the

monitor while it is open. This can cause damage to the mechanism.

In low ambient temperature conditions, the display may be dark for

a short period of time immediately after the power is turned on.

Once the LCD has warmed up, the display returns to normal.

For your safety, some operation of the unit cannot be performed

while the vehicle is in motion. In this case, first stop the vehicle and

engage the parking brake, then perform the operation.

What is MP3?

MP3, whose official name is “MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3,” is a

*³Display may vary depending on the connected devices.

MP3 files contain compressed audio data. MP3 encoding is

capable of compressing audio data at extremely high ratios,

reducing the size of music files to as much as one-tenth their

original size. This is achieved while still maintaining near CD

quality. The MP3 format realizes such high compression ratios

by eliminating the sounds that are either inaudible to the

human ear or masked by other sounds.

M.I.X. (Random Play)

What is WMA?

WMA, or “Windows Media™ Audio,” is compressed audio data.

WMA allows you to create music files and store them at higher

ratios of compression than MP3 audio data (approx. half

original size). This is achieved while still maintaining CD

quality sound.

Touch [

software. For details on creating MP3/WMA files, refer to the

user's manual for that software.

MP3/WMA files that can be played back by this device have

the file extension “mp3” / “wma”. Files with no extension

cannot be played back. (WMA ver. 7.1 and 8 are supported)

The tag information may not be correctly displayed,

depending on the contents.

Producing MP3/WMA discs

MP3/WMA files are prepared, then written to a CD-R or CD-

RW using CD-R writing software. A disc can hold up to 255

files/255 folders (including Root Folders).

Depending on the structure of the folders or files, it may take

time to read a disc. In this case, it is recommended to

decrease the number of folders or files.

Media supported

The media that this device can play back are CD-ROMs, CD-

Rs and CD-RWs.

Corresponding File Systems

Terminology

This device supports discs formatted with ISO9660 Level 1 or

Level 2.

Bit rate

This is the “sound” compression rate specified for encoding. The

higher the bit rate, the higher the sound quality, but also the larger

the files.

Under the ISO9660 standard, there are some restrictions to

remember.

The maximum nested folder depth is 8 (including the root

directory). File/folder names are limited to 31 characters

(including the extension).

Sampling rate

This value shows how many times per second the data is sampled

(recorded). For example, music CDs use a sampling rate of 44.1

kHz, so the sound is sampled (recorded) 44,100 times per second.

The higher the sampling rate, the higher the sound quality, but also

the larger the volume of data.

Valid characters for folder/file names are letters A-Z (all

caps), numbers 0-9, and ‘_’ (underscore).

This device also can play back discs in Joliet, Romeo, etc.,

and other standards that conform to ISO9660. However,

sometimes the file names, folder names, etc., are not

displayed correctly.

Encoding

Converting music CDs, WAVE (AIFF) files, and other sound files

The unit plays the files in the order that the writing software

writes them. Therefore, the playing order may not be the same

as the order you input. The playback order of the folders and

frequencies. The parametric equalizer’s center 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.

Tips

* Subwoofer speaker

You cannot change the time correction value for the

subwoofer, but you can set the subwoofer's apparent position

to the front by adjusting the time correction value of the front

and rear speakers.

Storing Adjusted Contents

The following operation is performed after Step 5 above.

For details, refer to the “Tips” on page 39.

6 Touch [MEMORY].

7 Within 5 seconds, touch any one of preset buttons

[P.SET 1] through [P.SET 6] on the BASS ENGINE

screen.

Here we calculate the time correction value for the front left

speaker in the diagram above.

The adjusted contents are stored on the P.SET number

you touch.

Conditions:

Farthest Speaker – listening position:

2.25 m (88-9/16")

Front left speaker – listening position: 0.5 m (19-11/16")

Calculation: L = 2.25 m – 0.5 m = 1.75 m (68-7/8")

Time correction = 1.75 ÷ 343^**× 1000 = 5.1 (ms)

^**Speed of sound: 343 m/s (765 mph) at 20˚C

•

The stored contents on the P.SET number remain undeleted despite

a following reset operation or disconnection of the battery power

cord.

Adjusted/set contents of each setting item in Bass Engine can be

stored in the preset buttons (1 through 6).

The sound is not balanced because the distance between the

listening position and the various speakers is different.

The difference in distance between the front left speaker and

the rear right speaker is 1.75 m (68-7/8").

Recalling the Adjusted and Stored Contents

Following operation is performed after Step 5 above.

Time correction eliminates the differences in the time required

for the sound to reach the listening position.

The time of the front left speaker is corrected by 5.1 ms so that

its sound reaches the listening position at the same time as the

sound of other speakers.

6 Touch any one of [P.SET 1] to [P.SET 6] on the BASS

ENGINE screen.

Recall the adjusted and stored contents.

•

The frequencies of adjacent bands cannot be adjusted within 4

steps.

This function is inoperable when Defeat is set to ON.

In other words, giving the front left speaker a time correction

value of 5.1 ms makes it seem as if the distance to the front left

speaker is the same as the distance to the farthest speaker.

About the Time Correction

Continued

The distance between the listener and the speakers in a car vary

widely due to the special conditions of the mobile environment. This

difference in the distances from the speakers to the listener creates a

shift in the sounds image and frequency characteristics. This is caused

by the time delay between the sound reaching the listener’s right

versus left ear.

To correct this, the IVA-D300 is able to delay the audio signal to the

speakers closest to the listener. This effectively creates a perception of

increased distance for those speakers. The listener can be placed at an

equal distance between the left and right speakers for optimum

staging.

The adjustment will be made for each speaker in a step of 0.1 ms.

Example 1. Listening Position: Front Left Seat

Adjust the time correction level of the front left speaker to a

high value and the rear right to zero or a low value.

Screen example for category search list

Connect a separately sold junction box and a portable telephone

(available from Nokia) to control the incoming and outgoing calls of

the portable telephone.

CAUTION

• Even with hands-free operation, a driver can be distracted

during telephone operation or receiving a call. For the

sake of safety, drivers are requested to refrain from

operating the telephone while driving.

• For the sake of safety, operations other than incoming

calls and Speed-Dial outgoing calls cannot be used.

•

If a portable telephone is connected, its address book, incoming

and outgoing history, short message history and standardized

sentences are downloaded to the junction box.

Please refer to the instruction manual of the junction box.

When a portable telephone is not connected, “NO PHONE” is

displayed for at least 5 seconds, then the mode returns to the

original source mode.

When the portable telephone is taken off the junction box during an

incoming or outgoing call, or during a hands-free call, the call will

be treated as an ordinary one by the portable telephone.

When there is an incoming call while the power of the IVA-D300 is

OFF, the power of the IVA-D300 turns ON automatically, hands-

free call is cut, and the portable telephone call is enabled.

Even if the power of the portable telephone is OFF, when IVA-

D300 is set to the telephone mode, the power of the portable

telephone will be turned ON.

If the ACC power of the vehicle is turned OFF (the engine is

stopped) during a hands-free call, the hands-free call cuts, and the

portable telephone call is enabled.

If there is an incoming call during operation (except an outgoing

call or talking), operation mode will end and switch to the

incoming or talking mode.

An outgoing call from a portable telephone is also possible.

However, you cannot perform different operations at the same time

from a portable telephone and IVA-D300 as malfunction can result.

With a junction box connected outgoing, incoming, and sending

history will also be recorded in the portable telephone.

While telephoning, Time Correction is set to normal (0.0ms) and

DEFEAT is also set to ON. When the call has finished, the unit

returns to the setting which you previously set.

A 12 cm disc can contain one movie or about four hours of

music.

In addition, DVDs provide sharp picture quality with vivid colors

thanks to a horizontal resolution of over 500 lines (compared to less

than 300 for VHS tape). With the addition of an optional, digital audio

processor (PXA-H900/PXA-H510/PXA-H700, etc.), you can recreate

the power and presence of a movie theater with Dolby Digital 5.1-

channel Surround.

In addition, DVDs offer a variety of functions.

• Multiple audio (page 21)

Movies can be recorded in up to eight languages. The

desired language can be selected from the remote control

unit.

• Subtitles function (page 21)

Movies can include subtitles in up to 32 languages. The

desired subtitle language can be selected from the remote

control unit.

• Multi angle function (page 21)

When the DVD contains a movie shot from multiple angles,

the desired angle can be selected from the remote control

unit.

• Multi story function

With this function, a single movie includes various story

lines. You can select different story lines to view various

versions of the same movie.

Operation differs from disc to disc. Story line selection

screens including instructions appear during the movie.

Just follow the instructions.

Dolby Pro Logic

Terminology

Dolby Pro Logic is the technology used to decode programs

encoded in Dolby Surround. Pro logic decoding will provide

you with four channels of sound (front left/right, center and

monaural rear surround) from a 2-channel (stereo) source.

* The separately sold digital audio processor (PXA-H510/PXA-

H900) is required to enjoy Dolby Pro Logic surround sound.

Dolby Digital

Dolby Digital is a digital audio compression technology

developed by Dolby Laboratories that allows large quantities

of audio data to be efficiently recorded on discs. It is

compatible with audio signals from mono (1 channel) all the

way up to 5.1-channel surround sound. The signals for the

different channels are completely independent, and since the

sound is high quality digital there is no loss of sound quality.

* The separately sold digital audio processor (PXA-H510/PXA-

H900/PXA-H700, etc.) is required to enjoy full 5.1-channel

surround sound.

Dolby Pro Logic II

Dolby Pro Logic II plays 2-channel sources in 5 channels over

the entire frequency range.

This is done with an advance, high sound quality matrix

surround decoder which draws out the spatial properties of the

original recording without adding any sounds to or changing

the sound of the source.

The IVA-D300 performs Dolby Digital decoding when it outputs

analog audio signals, it just happens to be 2-channel audio not

5.1-channel.

* The separately sold digital audio processor (PXA-H700, etc.) is

required to enjoy Dolby Pro Logic II surround sound.

Linear PCM audio (LPCM)

LPCM is a signal recording format used for music CDs.

Whereas music CDs are recorded at 44.1 kHz/16 bits, DVDs

are recorded at 48 kHz/16 bits to 96 kHz/24 bits, thereby

achieving higher sound quality than music CDs.

DTS

This is a home-use digital sound format of the DTS Sound

System. This is a high quality sound system, developed by

Digital Theater Systems Corp for use in movie theaters.

DTS has six independent sound tracks. The theater

presentation is fully realized in the home and other settings.

DTS is the abbreviation for Digital Theater System.

* To enjoy DTS surround sound you need the separately sold DTS

digital audio processor (PXA-H900/PXA-H700, etc.). The DVD

video software must also have a DTS sound track.

The IVA-D300 has a built-in DTS 2-channel audio decoder.

Analog audio outputs are available.

Installation and Connections

Before installing or connecting the unit, please read the

following and pages 4 to 6 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

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 disconnect the cable from the (–) battery post before

installing your IVA-D300. 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 IVA-D300 to the fuse box, make

sure the fuse for the intended circuit of the IVA-D300 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 IVA-D300 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.

• The Display must be completely retracted in the casing when

installing. If it is not, problems may occur.

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.

• When installing in automobiles, make sure the Display can

open/close without coming in contact with the gear shift .
