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.
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 wires
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
TMI-M990. 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 TMI-M990 to
the fuse box, make sure the fuse for the
intended circuit of the TMI-M990 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 TMI-M990 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.
• The Display must be completely
retracted in the casing when installing. If
it is not, problems may occur.
• When installing in automobiles,
make sure the Display can open/close
without coming in contact with the gear
shift.
