MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS. 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 device to the fuse box, make sure the fuse for the intended circuit of the device has the appropriate amperage. Failure to do so may result in fire or damage to the unit and/or the vehicle. When in doubt, consult your Alpine dealer. USE THIS PRODUCT FOR MOBILE 12 VOLT APPLICATIONS. Use for other than its designed application may result in fire, electric shock or other injury. CHECK THAT THE CAMERA MOUNTINGS IS ATTACHED SECURELY, AND THAT THE SCREWS ARE TIGHT BEFORE DRIVING. Failure to do so may result in an accident. WHEN INSTALLING OR CHECKING A CAMERA, DO SO AFTER PARKING THE CAR IN A LEVEL, SAFE PLACE, TURNING OFF THE ENGINE, AND APPLYING THE HAND BRAKE. Failure to do so may result in an accident. WHEN USING A DRILL TO MAKE A HOLE, TAKE PRECAUTIONS SUCH AS WEARING GOGGLES SO FRAGMENTS DO NOT GET INTO THE EYES. Failure to do so may result in injury. ~CAUTION This symbol means important instructions. Failure to heed them can result in injury or material property damage. 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. 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. CONNECT LEADS PROPERLY Be sure to connect the color coded leads according to the diagram. Incorrect connections may cause the unit to malfunction or cause damage to the vehicle's electrical system. HALT USE IMMEDIATELY IF A PROBLEM APPEARS. Failure to do so may cause personal injury or damage to the product. Return it to your authorized Alpine dealer or the nearest Alpine Service Center for repairing. EXCEPT FOR THE CAMERA, DO NOT ATTACH ANY PARTS TO AREAS WHICH WILL GET WET, OR WHERE THERE IS A LOT OF HUMIDITY OR DUST. Failure to do so may result in fire or damage. DO NOT ATTACH THE CAMERA MOUNTING TO FLUOROCARBON RESIN FINISHED CAR BODIES OR GLASS. Doing so could cause the strength of the camera mounting to weaken, which could cause it to fall of and cause accidents, injury, or damage to the car body. DO NOT ATTACH THE CAMERA MOUNTING TO ANY SURFACE WHERE THE ENTIRE ADHESIVE SURFACE CANNOT BE APPLIED. Doing so could cause the strength of the camera mounting to weaken, which could cause it to fall of and cause accidents, injury, or damage to the car body. NOTICE • About Care of Device Do not assert any excess pressure to the camera or the mounting, as this could cause the camera direction to shift, or the camera mounting bracket to come off. • To prevent the camera lens, mounting and cords from changing color or shape, or from deteriorating, wipe with a chemical-free, damp cloth. • When washing the car, do not using an automatic car washer, or high-pressure washer. Doing so could cause the camera to come off, damage to the device cord, or may allow water to enter the camera or the inside of the car. • In some cases, to attach the device, a hole must be drilled in the car body, requiring use of touch-up paint (retail product) for rust-prevention, and should be prepared beforehand. • Be sure to disconnect the cable from the (-) battery post before installing your HCE-Cl57D. This will reduce any chance of damage to the unit in case of a short-circuit.
