WARNING  
WARNING  
CAUTION  
The exclamation point within an equilateral  
triangle and "WARNING" are intended to alert the  
user to the presence of important operating  
instructions.  
The exclamation point within an equilateral  
triangle and "CAUTION" are intended to alert the  
user to the presence of important operating  
instructions.  
Failure to heed the instructions will result in  
severe injury or death.  
Failure to heed the instructions can result in injury  
or material damage.  
DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR ALTER.  
Doing so may lead to accident, fire or electric shock.  
DO NOT BLOCK VENTS OR RADIATOR PANELS.  
Blocking them may cause heat to build up inside and may  
result in fire.  
KEEP SMALL ARTICLES OUT OF THE REACH OF  
CHILDREN.  
STOP THE VEHICLE IF UNIT OPERATION MIGHT  
INTERFERE WITH DRIVING.  
If swallowed, consult a physician immediately.  
USE THE CORRECT AMPERE RATING WHEN  
PRECAUTIONS  
Temperature  
REPLACING FUSES.  
Failure to do so may result in fire or electric shock.  
Be sure the temperature inside the vehicle is between  
+60°C (+140°F) and –10°C (+14°F) before turning your  
unit on.  
HALT USE IMMEDIATELY IF A PROBLEM APPEARS.  
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.  
Tape Slack  
Check and make sure any slack in the tape is taken up  
before inserting the tape into the unit. A loose tape can get  
caught in the mechanism and cause damage to the unit  
and the tape itself. Tighten the tape by inserting a pencil  
or a similar instrument into the spindle hole and turn until  
all the slack has been taken up.  
DO NOT OPERATE THE EQUIPMENT OR LOOK AT  
THE SCREEN WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE.  
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.  
DO NOT RAISE THE VOLUME EXCESSIVELY.  
Keep the volume at a level where you can still hear  
outside noises while driving. Driving while unable to hear  
outside noises could be the cause of accident.  
Excessively Thin Tape  
DO NOT USE THIS EQUIPMENT FOR PURPOSES  
C-120 type cassette tapes are not recommended for use in  
automobile tape players.  
OTHER THAN STATED FOR THE VEHICLE.  
Failure to do so may result in electric shock or injury.  
Precision Tape Mechanism  
Prevent any foreign objects from entering the cassette  
opening as the precision mechanism and tape head may be  
damaged.  
Never play dirty or dusty tapes – they can damage the tape  
head.  
DO NOT PLACE FOREIGN OBJECTS IN INSERTION  
SLOTS OR GAPS.  
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.  
2-EN  
Tape Head Cleaning  
Periodic cleaning (approximately every 20 hours of use)  
of the tape head with a wet type head-cleaning cassette  
tape (available at audio stores) is necessary for best  
performance.  
Fuse Replacement  
When replacing the fuse(s), the replacement must be of  
the same amperage as shown on the fuse holder. If the  
fuse blows more than once, carefully check all electrical  
connections for shorted circuitry. Also have your vehicle's  
voltage regulator checked.  
Maintenance  
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.  
Installation Location  
Make sure the TDM-7574 will not be installed in a  
location subjected to:  
Direct sun and heat  
High humidity and water  
Excessive dust  
Excessive vibrations  
Handling the Detachable Front Panel  
Do not expose to rain or water.

Insta lla tion a nd Conne c tions  
Before installing or connecting the unit, please  
read the following and pages 2 and 3 of this  
Caution  
manual thoroughly for proper use.  
USE SPECIFIED ACCESSORY PARTS AND INSTALL  
THEM SECURELY.  
Warning  
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.  
USE ONLY VEHICLES WITH A 12 VOLT NEGATIVE (–)  
GROUND.  
DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WITH HIGH  
Check with your dealer if you are not sure. Failure to do  
so may result in fire or electric shock.  
MOISTURE OR DUST.  
A high incidence of moisture or dust that penetrates into  
this unit may cause smoke or fire.  
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.  
Precautions  
DO NOT CUT AWAY THE WIRE SHEATH AND USE  
Be sure to disconnect the cable from the (–) battery post  
before installing your TDM-7574. 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.  
POWER FOR OTHER EQUIPMENT.  
Doing so may exceed the current carrying capacity of the  
wire and result in fire or electric shock.  
DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WHICH MIGHT  
HINDER VEHICLE OPERATION OR CREATE  
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  
TDM-7574 to the fuse box, make sure the fuse for the  
intended circuit of the TDM-7574 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 TDM-7574 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.  
HAZARDS FOR VEHICLE OCCUPANTS.  
Doing so may obstruct forward vision or hamper  
movement.  
DO NOT CONTACT, DAMAGE OR OBSTRUCT PIPES,  
FLUID LINES OR WIRING WHEN DRILLING HOLES.  
Failure to take such precautions may result in fire or cause  
an accident or injuries.  
DO NOT USE NUTS OR BOLTS IN THE BRAKE  
SYSTEM WHEN MAKING INSTALLATION OR  
GROUND CONNECTIONS.  
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.  
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.  
MAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONS.  
IMPORTANT  
Failure to do so may cause fire or accident to occur.  
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.  
ARRANGE THE WIRING SO IT IS NOT CRIMPED OR  
PINCHED.  
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.
