WARNING

PRECAUTIONS

Never Attempt the Following

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.

Handling the Detachable Front Panel

• Do not expose to rain or water.

• Do not drop or apply shock.

Correct Handling

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.

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.

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.

New Discs

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 centre 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 ballpoint pen or other such instrument, then insert the disc again.

Centre Hole Centre Hole New

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 centre 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.

Disc Accessories

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 the disc to be out of standard specifications and may create operational problems. We recommend not using these accessories on discs played in Alpine DVD players.

Tips for making your own CDs

The DVA-7996R plays DVD Video, Video CD, Audio CD and has a built in MP3 decoder.

The following information is designed to help you create your own music CDs (either Audio CD or MP3 encoded CD-R/RW files).

What is the difference between an Audio and MP3 CD? An

Audio CD is the same format as the commercial CDs you buy in the store (also known as CD-DA). MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3) is a data file that uses a compression scheme to reduce the size of the music file.*

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

7996R can read either sector on the disc. Choose MixDisc CD to play the CD audio section or MixDisc MP3 to play the MP3 section.*

Multisession CD-R/RW: 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 DVA-7996R can only read multisession DATA Formatted discs (MP3 files -

Not Audio CD files).

MP3 ID3 Tag Information: The DVA-7996R read and displays MP3

ID3v1 tag information. MP3 files created with ID3v2 tag information can be played back but the tag info cannot be read or displayed.

Properly formatted MP3 Discs: Use ISO-9660 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.*

*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 and do not write on the surface.

•

Clean the disc when it is dusty.

•

Make sure that there are no bumps around the disc.

•

Do not use commercially available disc accessories.

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.

• Discs that cannot be played

DVD-ROMs, DVD-R/DVD-RAMs, DVD-RWs,

DVD+RWs, CD-ROMs (excluding MP3 files), photo

CDs, etc.

• DVD region number (playable region number)

This DVD head unit will play back any disc whose region number is 2 (or All). DVDs with a region number other than those listed below, cannot be played on this DVD player.

ALL

• 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.

About the Time Correction

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 the left ear.

To correct this, the DVA-7996R 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.

Here we calculate the time correction value for the front left speaker in the diagram at the left.

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

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.

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").

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.

Example 2. Listening Position: All Seats

Adjust the time correction level of each speaker to almost the same level.

1

Sit in the listening position (driver’s seat, etc.) and measure the distance (in meters) between your head and the various speakers.

2

Calculate the difference between the distance to the farthest speaker and the other speakers.

L = (distance to farthest speaker) – (distance to other speakers)

3

Divide the distances calculated for the speakers by the speed of sound (343 m/s (765 mph) at 20˚C).

These values are the time correction values for the different speakers.

5.1ms

0.5m

2.25m

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.

For details, refer to the “Tips” on page 11.

Tips

* Subwoofer speaker.

Delay (turn the rotary encoder) the audio signal to the front

(left and right) speakers to make the apparent position of the subwoofer to be at the front. In doing this, the apparent position between the front (left and right) speakers and subwoofer will appear equal to the driver. After performing above, you can change the positions of left and right speakers by delaying the time.

About MP3

CAUTION

Except for personal enjoyment, duplicating audio data

(including MP3 data) or distributing, transferring, or copying it, whether for free or for a fee, without the permission of the copyright holder is strictly prohibited by the Copyright Act and by international treaty.

•

What is MP3?

MP3, whose official name is “MPEG Audio Layer 3”, is a compression standard prescribed by the ISO, the

International Standardization Organization and MPEG which is a joint activity institution of the IEC.

MP3 files contain compressed audio data. MP3 encoding is capable of compressing the audio data at extremely high ratios shrinking music files by 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.

•

Method for creating MP3 files

The software used to create MP3 files is widely sold or free from various sources. For details on creating MP3 files, refer to the user's manual for that software.

The MP3 files that can be played back by this device have the file extension “mp3”. Files with no extension can not be played back.

• Supported playback sampling rates and bit rates

Sampling rates: 32 kHz - 48 kHz, bit rates: 32 - 320 kbps

Note that for sampling rates such as 22.05 kHz, this device’s frame display (Page 13) may not display correctly.

• ID3 tags

This device supports ID3 tag v1.

If ID3 tag data is in an MP3 file, this device can display the title (track title), artist name, and album name ID3 tag data.

32

-EN

This device can only display single-byte alphanumeric characters and the underscore. For non-supported characters, “NO SUPPORT” is displayed.

• Producing MP3 discs

MP3 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/folders (including Root Folders).

• Media supported

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

CD-Rs, and CD-RWs.

• Corresponding File Systems

This device supports discs formatted with ISO9660 Level

1 or Level 2.

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).

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, and other standards that conform to ISO9660. However, sometimes the file names, folder names, etc. are not displayed correctly.

• Formats supported

This device supports CD-ROM XA, Mixed Mode CD,

Enhanced CD (CD-Extra) and Multi-Session.

This device can not correctly play back discs recorded with Track At Once or packet writing.

• Order of tracks

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 files is as follows.

Terminology

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.

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 level 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.

Encoding

Converting music CDs, WAVE (AIFF) files, and other sound files into the specified audio compression format.

ID3 tag

Song information such as track titles, artist names, album names, etc., written into MP3 files.

Information

About DVDs

Music CDs and DVDs have grooves (tracks) in which the digital data is recorded. The data is represented as microscopic pits recorded into the track – these pits are read by a laser beam to play the disc. On DVDs, the density of the tracks and pits is twice that of CDs, so DVDs can contain more data in less space.

Moreover, DVDs offer a variety of functions.

• Multiple audio* (page 38)

Movies can be recorded in up to eight languages. The desired language can be selected from the remote control unit.

• Subtitles function* (page 38)

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 38)

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.

NOTE

* The functions audio languages, subtitle languages, angles, etc., differ from disc to disc. For details, refer to the disc’s instructions.

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), you can recreate the power and presence of a movie theater with Dolby Digital 5.1-channel Surround.

Terminology

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) is required to enjoy full 5.1-channel surround sound.

The DVA-7996R performs Dolby Digital decoding when it outputs analog audio signals, it just happens to be 2-channel audio not 5.1-channel.

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). The DVD video software must also have a DTS sound track.

The DVA-7996R has a built-in DTS 2-channel audio decoder. Analog audio outputs are available.

FR

Dolby Pro Logic

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.

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

DE any sounds to or changing the sound of the source.


H700) 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/ IT

16 bits, DVDs are recorded at 48 kHz/16 bits to 96 kHz/24 bits, thereby achieving higher sound quality than music CDs.

Rating levels (parental lock)

This is a function of the DVD for restricting the viewing age as stipulated by laws in different countries. The way in which viewing is restricted differs from DVD to DVD. Sometimes the DVD cannot be played at all, other times certain scenes are skipped, and other times certain scenes are replaced with other scenes.

Before installing or connecting the unit, please read the following and pages 3 and 4 of this manual thoroughly for proper use.

Caution

Warning

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 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 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 BATTERIES OUT OF THE

REACH OF CHILDREN.

Swallowing them may result in serious injury.

If swallowed, consult a physician immediately.

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.

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.

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.

Precautions

• Be sure to disconnect the cable from the (–) battery post before installing your DVA-7996R. 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 DVA-7996R to the fuse box, make sure the fuse for the intended circuit of the DVA-7996R 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.

Caution

When you install this unit in your car, do not remove the

Detachable Front Panel.

If the Detachable Front Panel is removed during installation, you might press too hard and warp the metal plate that holds it in place.

Slide the DVA-7996R into the dashboard. When the unit is in place, make sure the locking pins are fully seated in the down position. This can be done by pressing firmly in on the unit while pushing the locking pin down with a small screwdriver. This ensures that the unit is properly locked and will not accidentally come out from the dashboard. Install the Detachable

Front Panel.
