WARNING  
PRECAUTIONS  
Temperature  
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 CVA-1003.  
This has been done for the safety of the driver and  
passengers.  
The Title Input and SETUP screens cannot be made while  
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.  
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.  
Installation Location  
Make sure the CVA-1003 will not be installed in a  
location subjected to:  
Direct sun and heat  
High humidity and water  
Excessive dust  
This operation is the same as when selecting sources  
using the remote control (Optional). When the car is  
parked, the selection is made as described in the Owner's  
Manual.  
Excessive vibrations  
Handling the Detachable Front Panel  
Do not expose to rain or water.  
Do not drop or apply shock.  
Alpine products equipped with the Ai-NET bus,  
connected to the CVA-1003, can be operated from the  
CVA-1003. Depending on the products connected, the  
functions and displays will vary. For details, consult your  
Alpine dealer.

Basic Operation  
Turning Power On and Off  
Raising the Monitor  
1
Press the OPEN/CLOSE button.  
The unit beeps 3 times and raises the monitor  
automatically.  
Some of this unit's functions, cannot be performed  
while the vehicle is in motion. Be sure to stop your  
vehicle in a safe location and apply the parking  
brake, before attempting these operations.  
NOTES  
The CVA-1003 is a precision device. With gentle  
handling, its unique capabilities can be enjoyed for a  
long time.  
1
Press the PWR (Power) button to turn on the  
unit.  
If the monitor touches an obstacle while it is being  
raised, the unit will stop raising the monitor  
immediately. Should this occur, remove the obstacle  
and press the OPEN/CLOSE button again to raise the  
monitor.  
The opening screen appears automatically on  
the monitor display.  
NOTE  
The unit can be turned on by pressing any other button  
except the OPEN/CLOSE and ANGLE 7 8 button.  
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.  
Under 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 will return 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.  
The volume level gradually increases to the previous  
level you were listening to before the unit was turned  
off. Press and hold the PWR (Power) button for at  
least 2 seconds to turn off the unit.  
NOTES  
After turning the system off, a slight ghost of the image  
will remain temporarily. This is an effect peculiar to  
LCD technology and is normal.  
Under cold temperature conditions, the screen may  
lose contrast temporarily. After a short warm-up  
period, it will return to normal.  
The CVA-1003 draws minimal current even when its  
power switch is turned off. If the switched power  
(ignition) lead of the CVA-1003 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.  
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 CVA-1003. For connecting the  
SPST switch, refer to "Connections Diagram of SPST  
Switch" on page 47.  
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.

Installation and Connections  
Before installing or connecting the unit, please  
read the following and pages 3 and 4 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.  
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.  
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 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  
Be sure to disconnect the cable from the () battery post  
before installing your CVA-1003. 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.  
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.  
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 CVA-  
1003 to the fuse box, make sure the fuse for the intended  
circuit of the CVA-1003 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 CVA-1003 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.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
IMPORTANT  
Please record the serial number of your unit in the  
space provided below and keep it as a permanent  
record. The serial number plate is located on the  
bottom of the unit.  
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.
