ALPINE DHA-S690 68-09359Z17-A (EN)
Installation
CAUTION
Be careful that the vehicle’s cords do not touch
the DHA-S690.
If the cords are in contact with the DHA-S690,
their sheaths may be damaged due to vibrations
generated while the vehicle is running, resulting
in short-circuits. Leave enough space when
routing wires to prevent contact between the
vehicle’s wires and the DHA-S690.
To prevent external noise from entering the audio system.
• Locate the unit and route the leads at least 10 cm away from the
car harness.
•Keep the battery power leads as far away from other leads as
possible.
• Connect the ground lead securely to a bare metal spot (remove any
paint, dirt or grease if necessary) of the car chassis.
• If you add an optional noise suppressor, connect it as far away
from the unit as possible. Your Alpine dealer carries various noise
suppressors. Contact them for further information.
•Your Alpine dealer knows best about noise prevention measures so
consult your dealer for further information.
Remove the shipping keys.
Three keys are mounted to the DHA-S690’s bottom panel
to protect the product during transportation. Be sure to
remove these keys before installing the DHA-S690. So as
not to lose the keys, store them in the special plastic
pouch provided with the DHA-S690 and cover the key
holes with the included dust-prevention seals.
•The eject operation cannot be performed if the keys are mounted
when the power is turned on. Turn the power off, then remove the
keys.

Change the position of the springs.
With this product, the positions of the built-in anti-vibration
springs must be changed according to the angle of
