CAUTION

This symbol means important instructions.
Failure to heed them can result in injury or
material property 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.

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.

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.

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 MIX NEW BATTERIES WITH OLD BATTERIES.
INSERT WITH THE CORRECT BATTERY POLARITY.

When inserting the batteries, be sure to observe proper polarity (+
and –) as instructed. Rupture or chemical leakage from the
battery may cause fire or personal injury.

PRECAUTIONS

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
monitor. This has been done for the safety of the driver and
passengers.
Setup Operation and Search Function 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.

• Be sure to disconnect the cable from the (–) battery post before

installing your VPA-B211A. 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 VPA-B211A to the fuse box,
make sure the fuse for the intended circuit of the VPA-B211A
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 VPA-B211A 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.
