any special shaped discs.  
PRECAUTIONS  
Product Cleaning  
Use of special shaped discs may cause damage to the mechanism.  
Use a soft dry cloth for periodic cleaning of the product. For  
more severe stains, please dampen the cloth with water only.  
Anything else has the chance of dissolving the paint or damaging  
the plastic.  
Temperature  
Do not operate your unit in ambient temperature above +60°C  
(+140°F) or below -10°C (+14°F).  
Installation Location  
Make sure the DVA-5210 will not be installed in a location  
subjected to:  
Moisture Condensation  
You may notice the disc playback sound wavering due to  
condensation. If this happens, remove the disc from the player  
and wait about an hour for the moisture to evaporate.  
Direct sun and heat  
High humidity and water  
Excessive dust  
Excessive vibrations  
Damaged Disc  
Correct Handling  
Do not attempt to play cracked, warped, or damaged discs.  
Playing a bad disc could severely damage the playback  
mechanism.  
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.  
Maintenance  
CORRECT  
If you have problems, do not attempt to repair the unit yourself.  
Return it to your Alpine dealer or the nearest Alpine Service  
Station for servicing.  
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.  
INCORRECT  
CORRECT  
Disc Cleaning  
Inserting Discs  
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 center 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.  
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.  
Press c to eject any disc that is inserted incorrectly.  
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, press  
c to eject any disc with irregular surface 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  
center 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 ball-point pen or other such  
instrument, then insert the disc again.  
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  
operational problems. We recommend not using these accessories  
on discs played in Alpine DVD players.

Tips for making your own CDs  
The DVA-5210 plays DVD Video, Video CD, Audio CD and has  
(CD single) 20 Minutes  
a built in MP3/WMA decoder.  
The following information is designed to help you create your  
own music CDs (either Audio CD or MP3/WMA encoded CD-R/  
RW files).  
* Two-layer DVD disc compatible  
What is the difference between an Audio and MP3/WMA  
CD?  
An Audio CD is the same format as the commercial CDs you buy  
in the store (also known as CD-DA). MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer  
3)/WMA (Windows Media Audio) is a data file that uses a  
compression scheme to reduce the size of the music file.*  
Hybrid Audio CD and Data (MP3/WMA) CD-R/RW discs:  
The DVA-5210 can read either sector on the disc. Choose CD-DA  
to play the CD audio section or MP3/WMA to play the MP3/  
WMA section.*  
Continued  
5-EN  
Multisession CD-R/RW:  
Disc terminology  
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-5210 can only read  
multisession DATA Formatted discs (MP3/WMA files - Not  
Audio CD files).  
Title  
If titles are programmed for the DVD, these are the largest units  
of division of the information recorded on the disc.  
Chapter  
Each Title may also be divided into smaller divisions, called  
chapters. These can be specific scenes or musical selections.  
MP3 ID3 Tag/WMA Tag Information:  
The DVA-5210 read and displays MP3 ID3v1 tag or WMA tag  
information. MP3 files created with ID3v2 tag information can be  
played back but the tag info cannot be read or displayed.

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

What is MP3?  
(factory default)  
MP3 (MPEG-1 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.  
(OFF)  
Press M.I.X. again and select OFF to deactivate the M.I.X.  
play.  
MP3 files contain compressed audio data. MP3 encoding is  
capable of compressing audio data at extremely high ratios,  
reducing the size of music files to 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.  
Repeat Play  
During playback, press REPEAT.  
The repeat mode switches each time the button is pressed.  
What is WMA?  
WMA, or “Windows Media™ Audio,” is compressed audio  
data.  
WMA allows you to create music files and store them at higher  
ratios of compression than MP3 audio data (approx. half  
original size). This is achieved while still maintaining CD  
quality sound.  
The file is played repeatedly.  
RPT (FILE)  
RPT FOLDER

Method for creating MP3/WMA files  
Press REPEAT again and select OFF to deactivate the repeat  
play.  
Audio data is compressed by using MP3/WMA specified  
software. For details on creating MP3/WMA files, refer to the  
user's manual for that software.  
MP3/WMA files that can be played back by this device have  
the file extension “mp3”/“rmp”, “wma”. Files with no extension  
cannot be played back. (WMA ver. 7.1 and 8 are supported)

RW using CD-R writing software. A disc can hold a maximum  
of 255 files, and 255 folders.  
Media supported  
The media that this device can play back are CD-ROMs, CD-  
Rs, and CD-RWs.  
16-EN  
Corresponding File Systems  
Terminology  
This device supports discs formatted with ISO9660 Level 1 or  
Level 2.  
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.  
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).  
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 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.  
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, etc., and other  
standards that conform to ISO9660. However, sometimes the  
file names, folder names, etc., are not displayed correctly.  
Encoding  
Converting music CDs, WAVE (AIFF) files, and other sound files  
into the specified audio compression format.  
Formats supported  
This device supports CD-ROM XA, Mixed Mode CD,  
Enhanced CD (CD-Extra) and Multi-Session.  
This device cannot correctly play back discs recorded with  
Track At Once or packet writing.  
Tag  
Song information such as track title, artist name, album name, etc.,  
written into MP3/WMA files.  
MP3: ID3 tag  
Order of files  
WMA: WMA tag  
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. However, the folder and file playback order  
differs from the folder no. and file no. indicated on the display.

• Multiple audio* (page 12)  
Movies can be recorded in up to eight languages. The  
desired language can be selected from the remote control.  
Information  
About DVDs  
• Subtitles function* (page 12)  
Movies can include subtitles in up to 32 languages. The  
desired subtitle language can be selected from the remote  
control.  
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.  
• Multi angle function* (page 12)  
When the DVD contains a movie shot from multiple angles,  
the desired angle can be selected from the remote control.  
• 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.  
CDs  
Operation differs from disc to disc. Story line selection  
screens including instructions appear during the movie.  
Just follow the 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.  
23-EN  
Dolby Pro Logic  
Terminology  
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.  
* The separately sold digital audio processor (PXA-H510, PXA-  
H900) is required to enjoy Dolby Pro Logic surround sound.  
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.  
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 advanced, high sound quality matrix  
surround decoder which draws out the spatial properties of the  
original recording without adding any sounds to or changing  
the sound of the source.  
The DVA-5210 performs Dolby Digital decoding when it  
outputs analog audio signals; 2-channel audio, not 5.1-  
channel.  
* The separately sold digital audio processor (PXA-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/16 bits, DVDs  
are recorded at 48 kHz/16 bits to 96 kHz/24 bits, thereby  
achieving higher sound quality than music CDs.  
Center

Rating levels (parental lock)  
This is a DVD function for restricting the viewing age as  
stipulated by censorship 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.

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, etc. 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-5210 has a built-in DTS 2-channel audio decoder.  
Analog audio outputs are available.

Installation and Connections  
Before installing or connecting the unit, please read the  
following and pages 3 and 4 of this manual thoroughly  
for proper use.  
Caution  
HAVE THE WIRING AND INSTALLATION DONE BY  
EXPERTS.  
Warning  
MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS.  
Failure to make the proper connections may result in fire or  
product damage.  
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.  
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.  
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 ALLOW CABLES TO BECOME ENTANGLED IN  
SURROUNDING OBJECTS.  
Arrange wiring and cables in compliance with the manual to  
prevent obstructions when driving. Cables or wiring that obstruct  
or hang up on places such as the steering wheel, gear lever, brake  
pedals, etc., can be extremely hazardous.  
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.  
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.  
Precautions  
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.  
Be sure to disconnect the cable from the (–) battery post before  
installing your DVA-5210. 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-5210 to the fuse box,  
make sure the fuse for the intended circuit of the DVA-5210  
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.  
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.  
The DVA-5210 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.  
DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WHICH MIGHT HINDER  
VEHICLE OPERATION, SUCH AS THE STEERING WHEEL  
OR SHIFT LEVER.  
Doing so may obstruct forward vision or hamper movement, etc.,  
and result in a serious accident.  
IMPORTANT  
Please record the serial number of your unit in the space  
provided below and keep it as a permanent record. The serial  
number plate is located on the bottom of the unit.

If using in a system with a head unit that is not fully Ai-NET compatible (no processor control) and a digital audio processor, do not connect  
the head unit’s Ai-NET cable. Only connect the DVA-5210 and digital audio processor using an optical fiber cable and its own Ai-NET cable.  
Use the head unit’s analog output (Front or rear) connected to the analog input of the processor.  
When connecting only to a digital audio processor (with a non-Alpine head unit or Alpine head unit without Ai-NET), it is possible to use both  
an optical fiber cable and an Ai-NET output cable.  
When connecting another brand of TV monitor, there is no need to connect the remote control input cord (white/brown). Use the optional  
remote control sensor unit.  
Be sure to connect the switched (ignition) power lead.  
Also refer to the operating instructions of the other products in the system.  
Please observe the following when using Fiber Optic Cable.  
Do not coil the Fiber Optic Cable smaller than a 30 mm radius.  
Do not place anything on top of the Fiber Optic Cable.
