Block 28-25, Changjiang Nanlu, WND, jiangsu, China Designed by ALPINE Japan Printed in China (Y) 68-08564Z21-A Experience music the way the artist Alpine introduces IMPRINT -- the world's first technology that thoroughly eliminates in-car acoustic problems that normally degrade sound quality. intended INTRODUCING IMPRINT These acoustical problems are so severe that no correction system has been able to overcome them. Until now, with the introduction of IMPRINT, Alpine provides a hardware/software combination that not only solves these problems, it actually improves the sound stage, tonal balance and definition -- and does it automatically, in a matter of minutes! VISION VS. REALITY All good music starts as an artist's vision. After countless hours of rehearsing, recording and mixing, that vision is ready for us to hear on discs, radio and other media. But do we hear it as the artist created it? Unfortunately, the reality is that we are almost never able to listen to it in the exact way the artist intended. Especially when we are listening in a car. CARS ARE TERRIBLE LISTENING SPACES Car interiors are full of materials that obstruct and degrade sound quality. For example, windows amplify and reflect high frequencies. Seat and dashboard coverings change certain frequencies. Carpets absorb and suppress mid frequencies. Graphic and parametric EQs are only partial remedies for these problems. In addition, the speakers are not located at equal distances from listeners, creating an unbalanced, uncentred sound stage. Time correction can help fix this, but only for one listening position. HOW IMPRINT IS DIFFERENT IMPRINT using MultEQ is superior to other equalisation systems in five ways. 1. It is the only system that measures the entire listening area, capturing time domain information from each listening location and applying a proprietary method for processing it to represent all seat locations. This gives the people in each seat the optimal listening experience. 2. It corrects both time and frequency problems, for an improved soundstage and smoother, more natural sound. 3. It uses dynamic frequency allocation to apply hundreds of points of correction to those areas where the sound problems are greatest. 4. It determines optimised blending points for low frequency crossovers. 5. It provides, in minutes, vehicle sound tuning that generally takes skilled professionals days to accomplish.

Failure to heed them can result in serious injury or death. 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. CAUTION This symbol means important instructions. Failure to heed them can result in injury or material property damage. 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 Centre for repairing. DO NOT MIX NEW BATTERIES WITH OLD BATTERIES. INSERT WITH THE CORRECT BATTERY POLARITY. When inserting the batteries, be sure to observe proper polarity (+ and ­) as instructed. Rupture or chemical leakage from the battery may cause fire or personal injury. KEEP THE VOLUME AT A LEVEL WHERE YOU CAN STILL HEAR OUTSIDE NOISES WHILE DRIVING. Excessive volume levels that obscure sounds such as emergency vehicle sirens or road warning signals (train crossings, etc.) can be dangerous and may result in an accident. LISTENING AT LOUD VOLUME LEVELS IN A CAR MAY ALSO CAUSE HEARING DAMAGE. PRECAUTIONS Product Cleaning Use a soft dry cloth for periodic cleaning of the product. For more severe stains, please dampen ...
