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.   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.   CORRECT   INCORRECT   CORRECT   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   Disc Cleaning   As a protective measure to prevent the CD from jamming,   the CD 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.   Fingerprints, dust, or soil on the surface of the disc could   cause the CD 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.   Center   Hole   Center   Hole   New   Disc   Disc Accessories   Bumps   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 CD players.   Outside   (Bumps)   Irregular Shaped Discs   Be sure to use round shape discs only for this unit and   never use any special shape discs.   Use of special shape discs may cause damage to the   mechanism.   Transparent Sheet   Disc Stabilizer   3-EN   Basic Operation   POWER   RESET   MUTE   8 9 MODE/BBE/   Audio Control   CLK   ANGLE   Detaching the Front Panel   • Controllable with Remote Control (CDA-7873   only)   This unit can be controlled with an optional Alpine   remote control.

To ensure safety, always   contact the dealer where you purchased this product to   have the work done.   Warning   MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS.   Failure to make the proper connections may result in fire   or product damage.   USE SPECIFIED ACCESSORY PARTS AND INSTALL   USE ONLY IN CARS WITH A 12 VOLT NEGATIVE   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.   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   • Be sure to disconnect the cable from the (–) battery post before   installing your CDA-7977/CDA-7876/CDA-7875/CDA-7873.   This will reduce any chance of damage to the unit in case of a   short-circuit.   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 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 CDA-7977/CDA-7876/CDA-7875/   CDA-7873 to the fuse box, make sure the fuse for the intended   circuit of the CDA-7977/CDA-7876/CDA-7875/CDA-7873 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 CDA-7977/CDA-7876/CDA-7875/CDA-7873 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 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.   • Be sure to connect the speaker (–) leads to the speaker (–)   terminal. Never connect left and right channel speaker cables   to each other or to the vehicle body.   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.   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.   SERIAL NUMBER:   INSTALLATION DATE:   INSTALLATION TECHNICIAN:   PLACE OF PURCHASE:   28-EN   Connect each input lead coming from an amplifier or   equalizer to the corresponding output lead coming   from the left rear of the CDA-7977/CDA-7876/CDA-   7875/CDA-7873.
