Freestyle solution for custom installs
As our Alpine Style infotainment systems get more popular and the demand for
more vehicle solutions increases, we also want to offer a Freestyle solution
that can be custom installed in any vehicle. This is especially interesting for
vehicles that are incompatible with 1DIN or 2DIN solutions, and for which there
are no car specific solutions available. The new Freestyle systems are available
in 7” and 9” monitor configurations and feature iGo primo NextGen navigation, as
well as built-in DAB+ and other important media options.
All parts included
Both Freestyle products include a high-resolution
touch-screen, fully customizable key panels, a media
receiver, GPS / Glonass antenna, wiring kit, USB cable
and a Golf 6 frame. This gives the installer all parts
needed for a good custom installation.
Interchangeable keys
The 2 key panels
can be installed horizontally or vertically, depending
on the installation position. The key positions can also
be assigned individually due to the interchangeable
buttons. This has the advantage that key layout can be
adjusted to personal preferences, as well as for left-hand
or right-hand steering wheel configuration. We recommend
for example, that the volume buttons are always
installed on the same side than the steering wheel to be
easily reachable.
Key caps
The key caps can be
easily removed to change their position. The can also be
rotated to allow vertical or horizontal installation.
Adjustable illumination
You can easily
adjust the illumination colour of the control buttons to
6 different colours (white, red, yellow, amber, blue and
green) to match the Freestyle system to your dashboard
illumination. You can also adjust the brightness
intensity in 2 levels. You can also adjust the display
background accordingly.
1 DIN navigation / media receiver
The media receiver
unit is very compact and has exact 1DIN measurements.
This makes it quite easy to find a suitable space behind
the dashboard or the centre console to install the unit.
Your Personal Media Expert
Works with Apple CarPlay
The innovative
X903D-F with Apple CarPlay compatibility brings you a
smarter way to use your iPhone on the road. Apple
CarPlay gives iPhone users an incredibly intuitive way
to make calls, use maps, listen to music and access
messages with just a word or a touch. You can even enjoy
Spotify, internet radio or podcasts while on the road
for a truly connected experience. Simply connect your
CarPlay enabled iPhone to the USB port of your Alpine
and you are ready to go.
Works with Android Auto
Android Auto was
designed with safety in mind. With a simple and
intuitive interface, integrated steering wheel controls,
and powerful new voice actions, it's designed to
minimize distraction so you can stay focused on the road.
Android Auto automatically brings you useful information,
and organizes it into simple cards that appear just when
they're needed. Both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto can
access the navigation antenna of the X903D-F for
improved accuracy when using the navi apps.
User Interface
We redesigned the
user interface to allow fast switching of applications
with a single swipe of a finger. If you for example view
and iPod playlist on your screen, all you have to do is
swipe your finger from right to left to view the
navigation map and iPod screen in a convenient split
screen arrangement. Another swipe will show you the
navigation map in full screen. This operation
methodology works in all four directions to quickly and
easily reach the most often used functions. You will
especially like this functionality while driving since
it eliminates to look for specific buttons.
Big Screen Entertainment
The Alpine system
allows you to enjoy movies, music videos or TV shows
from many different sources, such as DVDs from the
optional optical drive, USB sticks, the latest
smartphones with HDMI output or portable video devices (optional
cables or adapters are required). You can also connect
your iPod touch or iPhone via HDMI to enjoy your video
content on the high-resolution 9-inch display. Alpine
even offers an all-new DVB-T2 tuner (TUE-T220DV) if you
like to watch TV programs while you are waiting in
traffic jams. For driving safety, the video playback
feature is only available if the vehicle is not in
motion.
DAB/DAB+ Digital Radio
The built-in
DAB/DAB+ tuner uses the most advanced digital technology
to deliver radio reception with outstanding, noise-free
sound quality. DAB also offers many other advantages
over traditional FM radio: choose from a much wider
range of radio stations and after the initial station
scan easily select your desired channels from an
alphabetic or genre list of available stations. Please
note that a DAB antenna needs to be purchased
separately.
Connect Your Smartphone
If you do not want
to use Apple CarPlay or you own an iPhone 4 / 4S for
example, you can still connect it and use the Alpine
audio player to enjoy all your music in your car and
charge your phone.
Built-in Bluetooth® Technology
The built-in
Bluetooth® module allows wireless connection of a mobile
phone for hands-free communication, while frequent
software updates ensure full compatibility with the
latest phones. A very intuitive user interface makes
operation extremely easy. Bluetooth® also enables audio
streaming from the phone: audio content or even internet
radio can be wirelessly enjoyed on the Alpine system.
Hi-Res Audio Playback
This Alpine unit
can playback audio files in FLAC format – including
24/96 and 24/192 Hi-Res Audio compatibility.
Extensive sound tuning options
The X903D-F puts
the power of advanced sound processing in your car with
BASS ENGINE SQ to maximise bass sound and overall tone
balance, plus lots of custom tuning functions like
Digital Time Correction and Dual HD EQ. Best of all, you
can control them easily from your smartphone with the
Alpine TuneIt App. 24-Bit DAC and 2-volt PreOuts, too!
Parking assistance technology
The optional rear-view
camera system provides parking safety with cutting-edge
camera technology. The rear-view camera automatically
activates when reversing. You not only have a clear view
to the rear, you can also see useful distance guides for
easier parking. You can even activate a trailer hitch
ball guide to make hooking up your trailer much easier.

The iGo Primo NextGen
navigation is currently one of the best navigation software

equal higher navigation accuracy and a faster

GPS satellite signals and can also receive positioning
data from Glonass satellites. This brings big advantages
especially in an urban environment with many tall
buildings and when driving next to high mountains. When
using navigation with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto you
can also benefit from this new improved compatibility.

you can simply drag the navi map to be shown in the left

specific restaurant franchise or a specific petrol
station brand nearby. Restaurant information includes
the phone number next to the address and food type –
with a quick tap on the screen you can call ahead and
reserve a table.
Online Navigation with Apple CarPlay
When you’re driving,
Maps helps you find the way to your destination with
turn-by-turn spoken directions and new, easier-to-read

and arrows guide you in the right direction and let you
know how long it’s going to take to get there. Looking
for a gas station, restaurant, or coffee shop along your
route? New buttons on the navigation screen help you
quickly find the closest places and estimate how much
time the detour will add to your trip. If you push the
navigation hard-key on your Alpine unit twice, you

many menu points.

interface, and easy-to-use voice actions, it's designed
to minimize distraction so you can stay focused on the
