WARNING
A loud tone (noise) may be emitted from the
speakers when measuring the vehicles acous-
tics. Never perform the Auto EQ measurement
while driving.
CAUTION
! Thoroughly check the conditions before per-
forming Auto EQ, as the speakers may be da-
maged if this is performed under the following
conditions:
When the speakers are incorrectly con-
nected. (For example, when a rear speaker
is connected as a subwoofer output.)
When a speaker is connected to a power
amp delivering output higher than the
speakers maximum input power capabil-
ity.
! If the microphone for acoustical measure-
ment (sold separately) is not placed in an ap-
propriate location, the measurement tone may
become loud and measurement may take a
long time, resulting in battery drainage. Be
sure to place the microphone in the specified
location.
Before operating the Auto EQ function
! Perform Auto EQ in as quiet a place as pos-
sible, with the vehicle engine and air condi-
tioning switched off. Also, cut power to car
phones or cellular phones in the vehicle, or
remove them from the vehicle before per-
forming Auto EQ. Sounds other than the
measurement tone (surrounding sounds,
engine sound, telephones ringing, etc.)
may prevent correct measurement of the
vehicles acoustics.

Troubleshooting
If you have problems operating your navigation system, refer to this section. The most common
problems are listed below, along with likely causes and solutions. If a solution to your problem
cannot be found here, contact your dealer or the nearest authorized Pioneer service facility.
Problems with the navigation screen
Symptom Cause Action (Reference)
The power doesnt turn on. The
navigation system doesnt oper-
ate.
Leads and connectors are incor-
rectly connected.
Confirm once more that all connections are
correct.
The fuse is blown. Rectify the reason for the fuse blowing, then
replace the fuse. Be very sure to install a cor-
rect fuse with the same rating.
Noise and other factors are causing
the built-in microprocessor to oper-
ate incorrectly.
Park your vehicle in a safe place, and turn off
the engine. Turn the ignition key back to off
(ACC OFF). Then start the engine again, and
turn the power to the navigation system back
on.
You cannot position your vehicle
on the map without a significant
positioning error.
The GPS antenna is in an unsuitable
location.
The quality of signals from the GPS satellites
is poor, causing reduced positioning accu-
racy. Check the GPS signal reception and the
position of the GPS antenna if necessary.
Obstacles are blocking signals from
the satellites.
The quality of signals from the GPS satellites
is poor, causing reduced positioning accu-
racy. Check the GPS signal reception and the
position of the GPS antenna if necessary, or
continue driving until reception improves.
Keep the antenna clean.
The position of satellites relative to
your vehicle is inadequate.
The quality of signals from the GPS satellites
is poor, causing reduced positioning accu-
racy. Continue driving until reception im-
proves.
Signals from the GPS satellites have
been modified to reduce accuracy.
(GPS satellites are operated by the
US Department of Defense, and the
US government reserves the right to
distort positioning data for militar y
reasons. This may lead to greater
positioning errors.)
The quality of signals from the GPS satellites
is poor, causing reduced positioning accu-
racy. Wait until reception improves.
If a vehicle phone or cellular phone
is used near the GPS antenna, GPS
reception may be lost temporarily.
The quality of signals from the GPS satellites
is poor, causing reduced positioning accu-
racy. When using a cellular phone, keep the
antenna of the cellular phone away from the
GPS antenna.

hicle is misaligned after a U-turn or
reversing.
Check whether or not the reverse gear signal
input lead (violet) is connected properly. (The
navigation system works properly without the
lead connected, but positioning accuracy will
be adversely affected.)
Eco Graph is not available. The navigation system is unable to
obtain past average fuel mileage
data, so Eco Graph cannot be dis-
played.
Drive about 10 km on a road without obstruc-
tions. Then park your vehicle in a safe place,
turn off the navigation system and turn the
power to the navigation system back on.

Positioning technology
Positioning by GPS
The Global Positioning System (GPS) uses a
network of satellites orbiting the Earth. Each
of the satellites, which orbit at a height of
68 900 000 feet (21 000 km), continually broad-
casts radio signals giving time and position in-
formation. This ensures that signals from at
least three can be picked up from any open
area on the grounds surface.
The accuracy of the GPS information depends
on how good the reception is. When the sig-
nals are strong and reception is good, GPS
can determine latitude, longitude and altitude
for accurate positioning in three dimensions.
But if signal quality is poor, only two dimen-
sions, latitude and longitude, can be obtained
and positioning errors are somewhat greater.
Positioning by dead reckoning
The built-in sensor in the navigation system
also calculates your position. The current loca-
tion is measured by detecting driving distance
with the speed pulse, the turning direction
with the gyro sensor and inclination of the
road with the G sensor.
The built-in sensor can even calculate
changes of altitude, and correct the discrepan-
cies in the distance traveled caused by driving
along winding roads or up slopes.
If you use this navigation system with connect-
ing the speed pulse, the system will become
more accurate than no connection of speed
pulse. So you connect the speed pulse without
fail to get the accuracy of positioning.
p The position of the speed detection circuit
vary depending on the vehicle model. For
details, consult your authorized Pioneer
dealer or an installation professional.
p Some types of vehicles may not output a
speed signal while driving at just a few kilo-
meters per hour. In such a case, the current
location of your vehicle may not be dis-
played correctly while in traffic congestion
or in a parking lot.
How do GPS and dead
reckoning work together?
For maximum accuracy, your navigation sys-
tem continually compares GPS data with your
estimated position as calculated from the data
of built-in sensor. However, if only the data
from the built-in sensor is available for a long
period, positioning errors are gradually com-
pounded until the estimated position becomes
unreliable. For this reason, whenever GPS sig-
nals are available, they are matched with the
data of the built-in sensor and used to correct
it for improved accuracy.
p If you use chains on your wheels for winter
driving or put on the spare wheel, errors
may suddenly increase because of differ-
ence in wheel diameter. Initialize the sensor
status and it may recover the accuracy to
normal condition.
= For details, refer to Clearing status on
page 159.

Map matching
As mentioned, the positioning systems used
by this navigation system are susceptible to
certain errors. Their calculations may, on occa-
sion, place you in a location on the map where
no road exists. In this situation, the processing
system understands that vehicles travel only
on roads, and can correct your position by ad-
justing it to a nearby road. This is called map
matching.
With map matching
Without map matching
Handling large errors
Positioning errors are kept to a minimum by
combining GPS, dead reckoning and map
matching. However, in some situations, these
functions may not work properly, and the error
may become bigger.
When positioning by GPS is
impossible
! GPS positioning is disabled if signals can-
not be received from more than two GPS
satellites.
! In some driving conditions, signals from
GPS satellites may not reach your vehicle.
In this case, it is impossible for the system
to use GPS positioning.
In tunnels or en-
closed parking
garages
Under elevated
roads or similar
structures
When driving
among high build-
ings
When driving through
a dense forest or tall
trees
! If a car phone or cellular phone is used
near the GPS antenna, GPS reception may
be lost temporarily.
! Do not cover the GPS antenna with spray
paint or car wax, because this may block
the reception of GPS signals. Snow buildup
can also degrade the signals, so keep the
antenna clear.
p If a GPS signal has not been received for a
long time, your vehicles actual position
and the current position mark on the map
may diverge considerably or may not be up-
dated. In such case, once GPS reception is
restored, accuracy will be recovered.

Conditions likely to cause
noticeable positioning errors
For various reasons, such as the state of the

Route setting information
Route search specifications
Your navigation system sets a route to your
destination by applying certain built-in rules to
the map data. This section provides some use-
ful information about how a route is set.
CAUTION
When a route is calculated, the route and voice
guidance for the route are automatically set.
Also, for day or time traffic regulations, only infor-
mation about traffic regulations applicable at the
time when the route was calculated is consid-
ered. One-way streets and street closures may
not be taken into consideration. For example, if a
street is open during the morning only, but you
arrive later, it would be against the traffic regula-
tions so you cannot drive along the set route.
When driving, please follow the actual traffic
signs. Also, the system may not know some traf-
fic regulations.
! The calculated route is one example of the
route to your destination decided by the na-
vigation system while taking the type of
streets or traffic regulations into account. It
is not necessarily an optimum route. (In
some cases, you may not be able to set the
streets you want to take. If you need to take
a certain street, set a waypoint on that
street.)
! If the destination is too far, there may be in-
stances where the route cannot be set. (If
you want to set a long-distance route going
across several areas, set waypoints along
the way.)
! During voice guidance, turns and intersec-
tions from the freeway are announced.
However, if you pass intersections, turns,
and other guidance points in rapid succes-
sion, some may delay or not be announced.
! It is possible that guidance may direct you
off a freeway and then back on again.
! In some cases, the route may require you
to travel in the opposite direction to your
current heading. In such cases, you are in-
structed to turn around, so please turn
around safely by following the actual traffic
rules.
! In some cases, a route may begin on the
opposite side of a railway or river from your
actual current location. If this happens,
drive towards your destination for a while,
and try route calculation again.
! When there is a traffic congestion ahead, a
detour route may not be suggested if driv-
ing through the traffic congestion would
still be better than taking the detour.
! There may be instances when the starting
point, the waypoint and the destination
point are not on the highlighted route.
! The number of traffic circle exits displayed
on the screen may differ from the actual
number of roads.
Route highlighting
! Once set, the route is highlighted in bright
color on the map.
! The immediate vicinity of your starting
point and destination may not be high-
lighted, and neither will areas with particu-
larly complex road layouts. Consequently,
the route may appear to be cut off on the
display, but voice guidance will continue.
Auto reroute function
! If you deviate from the set route, the system
will re-calculate the route from that point
so that you remain on track to the destina-
tion.
! This function may not work under certain
conditions.
Handling and care of discs

Built-in drive and care
! Use only conventional, fully circular discs.
Do not use shaped discs.
! Do not use cracked, chipped, warped, or
otherwise damaged discs as they may da-
mage the built-in drive.
! When using discs that can be printed on
label surfaces, check the instructions and
the warnings of the discs. Depending on
the discs, inserting and ejecting may not
be possible. Using such discs may result in
damage to this equipment.
! Do not touch the recorded surface of the
discs.
! Store discs in their cases when not in use.
! Avoid leaving discs in excessively hot envir-
onments including under direct sunlight.
! Do not attach labels, write on or apply che-
micals to the surface of the discs.
! Do not attach commercially available labels
or other materials to the discs.
The discs may warp making the disc un-
playable.
The labels may come off during play-
back and prevent ejection of the discs,
which may result in damage to the
equipment.
! To clean a disc, wipe it with a soft cloth,
moving outward from the center.
! Condensation may temporarily impair the
built-in drives performance. Leave it to ad-
just to the warmer temperature for about
one hour. Also, wipe any damp discs with a
soft cloth.
! Playback of discs may not be possible be-
cause of disc characteristics, disc format,
recorded application, playback environ-
ment, storage conditions and so on.
! Road shocks may interrupt disc playback.
! Read the precautions for discs before
using them.
Ambient conditions for playing
a disc
! At extremely high temperatures, a tempera-
ture cutout protects this product by switch-
ing it off automatically.
! Despite our careful design of the product,
small scratches that do not affect actual
operation may appear on the disc surface
as a result of mechanical wear, ambient
conditions for use or handling of the disc.

Using the LCD screen correctly
Handling the LCD screen
! When the LCD screen is subjected to direct
sunlight for a long period of time, it will be-
come very hot, resulting in possible da-
mage to the LCD screen. When not using
this navigation system, avoid exposing it to
direct sunlight as much as possible.
! The LCD screen should be used within the
temperature ranges shown in Specifica-
tions.
! Do not use the LCD screen at temperatures
higher or lower than the operating tem-
perature range, because the LCD screen
may not operate normally and could be da-
maged.
! The LCD screen is exposed in order to in-
crease its visibility within the vehicle.
Please do not press strongly on it as this
may damage it.
! Do not push the LCD screen with excessive
force as this may scratch it.
! Never touch the LCD screen with anything
besides your finger when operating the
touch panel functions. The LCD screen can
scratch easily.
Liquid crystal display (LCD) screen
! If the LCD screen is near the vent of an air
conditioner, make sure that air from the air
conditioner is not blowing on it. Heat from
the heater may break the LCD screen, and
cool air from the cooler may cause moist-
ure to form inside the navigation unit, re-
sulting in possible damage.
! Small black dots or white dots (bright dots)
may appear on the LCD screen. These are
due to the characteristics of the LCD
screen and do not indicate a malfunction.
! The LCD screen will be difficult to see if it is
exposed to direct sunlight.
! When using a cellular phone, keep the an-
tenna of the cellular phone away from the
LCD screen to prevent disruption of the
video in the form of disturbances such as
spots or colored stripes.
Maintaining the LCD screen
! When removing dust from the LCD screen
or cleaning it, first turn the system power
off, then wipe with a soft dry cloth.
! When wiping the LCD screen, take care not
to scratch the surface. Do not use harsh or
abrasive chemical cleaners.

LED (light-emitting diode)
backlight
A light emitting diode is used inside the dis-
play to illuminate the LCD screen.
! At low temperatures, using the LED back-
light may increase image lag and degrade
the image quality because of the character-
istics of the LCD screen. Image quality will
improve with an increase in temperature.
! The product lifetime of the LED backlight is
more than 10 000 hours. However, it may
decrease if used in high temperatures.
! If the LED backlight reaches the end of its
product lifetime, the screen will become
dimmer and the image will no longer be
visible. In that case, please consult your
dealer or the nearest authorized Pioneer
Ser vice Station.

Glossary
AAC
AAC is short for Advanced Audio Coding and
refers to an audio compression technology
standard used with MPEG-2 and MPEG-4.
Aspect ratio
This is the width-to-height ratio of a TV screen.
A regular display has an aspect ratio of 4:3.
Wide screen displays have an aspect ratio of
16:9, providing a bigger picture for exceptional
presence and atmosphere.
Bit rate
This expresses data volume per second, or bps
units (bits per second). The higher the rate,
the more information is available to reproduce
the sound. Using the same encoding method
(such as MP3), the higher the rate, the better
the sound.
Built-in sensor
The built-in sensor that enables the system to
estimate your vehicles position.
CD-DA
This stands for a general music CD (commer-
cial-release audio CD). In this manual, this
word is sometime used for a distinction be-
tween data CDs (which include compressed
audio files) and general music CDs.
Chapter
Titles of DVD-Video are in turn divided into
chapters which are numbered in the same
way as the chapters of a book. With discs fea-
turing chapters, you can quickly find a desired
scene with chapter search.
Current location
The present location of your vehicle; your cur-
rent location is shown on the map by a red tri-
angle mark.
Destination
A location you choose as the end point of your
journey.
DivX
DivX is a popular media technology created by
DivX, LLC, a subsidiary of Rovi Corporation.
DivX media files contain highly compressed
video with high visual quality that maintains a
relatively small file size. DivX files can also in-
clude advanced media features like menus,
subtitles, and alternate audio tracks. Many
DivX media files are available for download on-
line, and you can create your own using your
personal content and easy-to-use tools from
DivX.com.
DivX Certified
®
DivX Certified
®
products are officially tested by
the creators of DivX and guaranteed to play all
versions of DivX video, except for DivX 7.
Favorites
A frequently visited location (such as your
workplace or a relatives home) that you can
register to allow easy routing.
GPS
Global Positioning System. A network of satel-
lites that provides navigation signals for a vari-
ety of purposes.
Guidance point
These are important landmarks along your
route, generally intersections. The next gui-
dance point along your route is indicated on
the map by the yellow flag icon.
Home location
Your registered home location.
ID3 tag
This is a method of embedding track-related
information in an MP3 file. This embedded in-
formation can include the track title, the ar-
tists name, the album title, the music genre,
the year of production, comments and other
data. The contents can be freely edited using
software with ID3 tag editing functions.
Although the tags are restricted by the num-
ber of characters, the information can be
viewed when the track is played back.

ISO 9660 format
This is the international standard for the for-
mat logic of DVD/CD-ROM folders and files.
For the ISO9660 format, there are regulations
for the following two levels:
! Level 1:
The file name is in 8.3 format (the name
consists of up to eight characters, half-byte
English capital letters, half-byte numerals
and the _ sign, with a file-extension of
three characters).
! Level 2:
The file name can have up to 31 characters
(including the separation mark . and a file
extension). Each folder contains less than
eight hierarchies.
! Extended formats
Joliet:
File names can have up to 64 characters.
Romeo:
File names can have up to 128 characters.
JPEG
This stands for Joint Photographic Experts
Group, and is an international still image com-
pression standard.
MP3
MP3 is short for MPEG Audio Layer 3. It is an
audio compression standard established by a
working group (MPEG) of the ISO (Interna-
tional Organization for Standardization). MP3
is able to compress audio data to about 1/10th
the size of a conventional disc.
MPEG
This stands for Moving Pictures Experts
Group, and is an international video image
compression standard.
Multi-angle
With regular TV programs, although multiple
cameras are used to simultaneously shoot
scenes, only images from one camera at a
time are transmitted to your TV. Some DVDs
feature scenes shot from multiple angles, let-
ting you choose your viewing angle as desired.
Multi-audio (Multilingual dialog)
Some videos feature dialog recorded in multi-
ple languages or audio recorded in multiple
tracks. For example, dialog in up to eight lan-
guages can be recorded on a single DVD-Vi-
deo, letting you choose the language as
desired.
Multi-session
Multi-session is a recording method that al-
lows additional data to be recorded later.
When recording data on a CD-ROM, CD-R or
CD-RW, etc., all data from beginning to end is
treated as a single unit or session. Multi-ses-
sion is a method of recording more than two
sessions in one disc.
Multi-subtitle
For example, subtitles in up to 32 languages
can be recorded on a single DVD-Video, letting
you choose as desired.
Packet write
This is a general term for a method of writing
individual files to a CD-R, etc. whenever re-
quired, just as is done with files on floppy or
hard disks.
Parental lock
Some DVD-Video discs with violent or adult-or-
iented scenes feature parental lock which pre-
vents children from viewing such scenes. With
this kind of disc, if you set the units parental
lock level, playback of scenes inappropriate for
children will be disabled, or these scenes will
be skipped.
Phone book
An address book on users phone is collec-
tively referr ed to as Phone book. Depending
on the cellular phone, the phone book may be
called a name such as Contacts, Business
card or something else.
Point Of Interest (POI)
Any of a range of locations stored in the data,
such as railway stations, shops, restaurants,
and amusement parks.

Region number
DVD players and DVD discs feature region
numbers indicating the area in which they
were purchased. Playback of a DVD is not pos-
sible unless it features the same region num-
ber as the DVD player.
Route setting
The process of determining the ideal route to a
specific location; route setting is done auto-
matically by the system when you specify a
destination.
Set route
The route marked out by the system to your
destination. It is highlighted in bright color on
the map.
Title
DVD-Video discs have a high data capacity, en-
abling recording of multiple videos on a single
disc. If, for example, one disc contains three
separate videos, they are divided into title 1,
title 2 and title 3. This lets you enjoy the conve-
nience of title search and other functions.
Track log
Your navigation system logs routes that you al-
ready passed through if the track logger is ac-
tivated. This recorded route is called a track
log. It is handy when you want to check a
route traveled or if returning along a complex
route.
VBR
VBR is short for variable bit rate. Generally
speaking, CBR (constant bit rate) is more
widely used. But by flexibly adjusting the bit
rate according to the needs of audio compres-
sion, it is possible to produce compression-
priority data.
Voice guidance
The giving of directions by navigation voice
while in guidance.
Waypoint
A location that you choose to visit before your
destination; a journey can be built up from
multiple waypoints and the destination.
WMA
WMA is short for Windows Media
Audio and
refers to an audio compression technology
that is developed by Microsof t Corporation.
WMA data can be encoded by using Windows
Media Player version 7 or later.
