WARNING
Failure to heed them can result in serious injury or death.
This symbol means important instructions.
CAUTION
Failure to heed them can result in injury or property damages.
• DO NOT OPERATE ANY FUNCTION THAT TAKES YOUR ATTENTION AWAY FROM SAFELY DRIVING YOUR
VEHICLE. Any function that requires your prolonged attention should only be performed after coming to a
complete stop. Always stop the vehicle in a safe location before performing these functions. Failure to do so may
result in an accident.
• KEEP THE VOLUME AT A LEVEL WHERE YOU CAN STILL HEAR OUTSIDE NOISE WHILE DRIVING.
Failure to do so may result in an accident.
• DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR ALTER. Doing so may result in an accident, fire or electric shock.
• USE THIS PRODUCT FOR MOBILE 12V APPLICATIONS. Use for other than its designed application may
result in fire, electric shock or other injury.
• USE THE CORRECT AMPERE RATING WHEN REPLACING FUSES. Failure to do so may result in fire or
electric shock.
• DO NOT BLOCK VENTS OR RADIATOR PANELS. Doing so may cause heat to build up inside and may result
in fire.
• MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS. Failure to make the proper connections may result in fire or product

cables in compliance with the manual to prevent obstructions when driving. Cables or wiring that obstruct or
Phone 02-725-13 15
hang up on places such as the steering wheel, gear lever, brake pedals, etc. can be extremely hazardous.
• 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 CONNEC-
TIONS. 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
68-05946Z01-A
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.
• 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.
• 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
1 Top Cap/
cables and wiring away from moving parts (like the seat rails) or sharp or pointed edges. This will prevent
Capuchon crimping and damage to the wiring. If wiring passes through a hole in metal, use a rubber grommet to prevent
supérieur/ 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
superior
high incidence of moisture or dust. Moisture or dust that penetrates into this unit may result in product failure.

Preparation for installation
1. Using the amplifier as a template, mark the four screw locations.
2. Make sure there are no objects behind the surface that may become damaged during drilling.
Fig. 3
3. Drill the screw holes.
4. Position the PDX-1.1000 over the screw holes, and secure with four self-tapping screws.
NOTE:
To securely connect the ground lead, use an already installed screw on the metal part of the vehicle
(marked ★). Be sure this is a good ground by checking continuity to the battery (–) terminal. As
much as possible connect all equipment to the same ground point. These procedures will help
eliminate noise.
