’Before Installation
Perform the installation at a location that is level. Make sure the parking
brake is on and the ignition is OFF.
Refer to the Connections and Operation sections before you proceed
with installation.

Install the Shuttle properly using the “L” type brackets supplied. Improp-
er installation can degrade performance (causing the player to skip,
mis-track, etc.).

Install the Shuttle in the trunk of the car or another suitable location. In
the passenger compartment of some cars, the glove box, under the dash
or center console may be able to accommodate the VPA-S001. Make sure
that the installation will not interfere with the safe operation of the vehi-
cle or with passenger leg room.

The VPA-S001 should be mounted to a stable surface. If no stable surface
is available, you must build a mounting board for the Shuttle. Choose a
location which allows easy access to insert and remove the CD magazi-
ne. Determine the mounting location and position. Then have the
necessary parts ready before you begin installation.

NOTE:
For the vertical installation be sure to install the Shuttle with the CD
magazine slot facing upward.

Installation of Shuttle
With the VPA-S001, CDs are automatically removed from and reinserted
into the CD magazine, DO NOT mount the unit upside down, as this could
cause the mechanism to become misaligned.

 Doing so may lead to accident, fire or electric shock.

 If swallowed, consult a physician imme-

diately.

 Failure

to do so may result in electric shock or injury due to electrical shorts.

Failure to do so may cause fire or accident to occur.

 Doing so may

exceed the current carrying capacity of the wire and result in fire or electric shock.

Doing so may obstruct forward vision or hamper movement.

Failure to take such precautions may result in fire or cause an accident or injuries.

Never use safety-related parts such as bolts or nuts in the steering or brake

systems or tanks to make wiring installations or ground connections. Using such parts could disable
control of the vehicle and cause brake failure, other accident or injury.

Route the cables and wiring so as

not to be crimped by moving parts or make contact with sharp or pointed spots which might damage
the wiring. Failure to do so may cause failure of unit or vehicle.

The wiring and installation of this unit

requires special technical skill and experience. To ensure safety, always contact the dealer where
you purchased this unit to have the work done.

When problems occur such as a lack of sound

or video, foreign objects inside the unit, smoke coming out, or noxious odors, stop use immediately
and contact the dealer where you bought the equipment. Failure to do so may result in an accident
or injury.

Operating the equipment may distract the driver from looking ahead of the vehicle and cause
accident. Always stop the vehicle in a safe location before operating this equipment.

Failure to

do so may result in electric shock or injury.

Do not insert hands, fingers

or foreign objects in the disc or cassette insertion slots, or in gaps during monitor startup/storage.
Doing so may result in personal injury or damage to the equipment.

Use of other than designated

parts may damage this unit internally or may not securely install the unit in place as parts that come
loose may create hazards.

A high incidence of moisture or

dust that penetrates into this unit may cause smoke or fire.

CAUTION:
Do not install the Shuttle near the vehicle’s fuel tank. This will prevent the
mounting screws from damaging the tank.

Never install the Shuttle on the rear deck  or front dashboard of the car.
The temperatures caused by direct sunlight at these locations can reach
extremes that could cause permanent damage to the Shuttle. The Alpine
Warranty will be voided in cases where this caution has been ignored
and results in damage to the Shuttle.

Shipping Screws
Three screws have been attached to the bottom of the Shuttle for protec-
tion during shipment. Remove these screws  before using. Keep the
removed screws in the  plastic bag attached to the connector of Shuttle.

Mounting in the Trunk
Make sure the mounting angle of the Shuttle installation will fall within the
five preset positions (22.5˚ to 45˚ from the horizontal or vertical position). The
Shuttle is preset at the factory for horizontal mounting. If you wish to install
it at any other angle, change the spring configuration as shown.
1. Remove the covers provided at both left and right sides of the unit by

pressing claws of the covers in the direction shown by the arrow.

2. Change the position of the spring with your finger.

Use the figure to determine which spring position would be best suited for
your chosen mounting location. If the spring configuration is incorrect or
the spring positions on the left and right sides are not the same, the shock
absorbing mechanism will not function properly. This will prevent the CD
Shuttle from operating at its best.

3. Mount the covers at the left and right sides as they were attached originally.
