Alpine X701D-F
Freestyle 7-inch Navigation System for custom installation - X701D-F
The Alpine Freestyle systems have been created to cover the growing demand for a custom installation system. Freestyle can be used especially for vehicles where no regular radio or navigation fits and no solutions are available. It is then up to the skill of the installer to use the Freestyle system to create a great solution for the vehicle.
- Brand: Alpine
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 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.
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 Freestyle systems allow 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 or iPhone to enjoy your video content on the high-resolution 9 or 7-inch display. For driving safety the video playback feature is only available if the vehicle is not in motion.
DAB+ Digital Radio
The built-in DAB/DAB+/DMB tuner uses the most advanced digital technology to deliver radio reception in outstanding, noise-free sound quality. DAB+ also offers many other advantages over traditional FM radio: select from a much wider range of radio stations and after an initial station scan you can easily select your desired channels from an alphabetic and genre list of available stations. Please note that a DAB antenna needs to be purchased separately.
Connect your iPod / iPhone
Both Freestyle systems are fully “works with iPod / iPhone” compatible. If you connect your Apple device via the Lightning or 34-pin Apple connector you will be able to enjoy songs, audio books and podcasts through your Alpine system. You can search content by songs, artists, albums, genre, composer and more. Best of all this happens in real time without any delay, so you will get the same smooth and fast operation experience on your Alpine screen that you are used to of your Apple device. All Apple iPods and iPhones with a 34-pin or Lighting connector are supported, including the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. Your Apple device also charges while it is connected.
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 it very easy to operate and also includes a speed dial function for the most frequently called numbers. Bluetooth® also enables audio streaming from the phone: audio content or even internet radio can be wirelessly transferred to the Alpine unit.
Yelp (by Alpine Connect)
If you own a smartphone with Android operating system, you can download the free of charge Alpine Connect App from Google play. This allows you to use Yelp on your Alpine touch screen and search for millions of POIs online with 5-star user ratings. Yelp is also linked to the navigation and phone app – allowing you to start navigating to your Yelp selection with a single push of a button.
Spotify (by Alpine Connect)
Another useful app included in Alpine Connect. Spotify let’s you enjoy millions of songs through your Alpine system. This service requires a Spotify premium account.
One Look Display
Our innovative “One Look” split-screen technology allows the driver to view the navigation map and audio playback information at one glance. This eliminates the need to switch between different applications. You can switch from full screen to One Look view with just a swipe on the display. This function is especially useful on long highway trips.
Extensive sound tuning options
The X701D-F and X901D-F put 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 4-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 and also mutes the audio so you can hear the parking sensor signals. 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.
Points of Interest
You can easily search for POIs by category, name, distance and other criteria. This is very helpful when looking for a specific restaurant franchise or a specific gas 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.
3D Maps
View maps in 3D with detailed buildings and landmarks. This feature helps you to better orientate yourself in big cities. Speed restriction display and speed camera warnings (not available in France) give you further driving assistance.
Lane Guidance / TMC Route Guidance
Lane Guidance lets the driver know which is the best lane to be in, while Dynamic TMC Route Guidance provides live traffic information for avoiding traffic jams and recalculates the route if necessary.
Plan Your Route
Thanks to TMC you are able to get live traffic updates – this is even very convenient before you start driving. Zoom out to see the full route you are about to drive and check the road conditions. Accidents, traffic jams and any kind of traffic problems are displayed with warning icons on the map, and roads with slow or stopped traffic are displayed in different colours. This allows you to better plan your route.
