READ ME FIRST!
To Users Updating the Application Program from AVIC-9DVD, AVIC-8DVD
The application program of the AVIC-9DVD or AVIC-8DVD are updated by using the
CNDV-20 update disc. Please read the cautions on the next page before updating. There
is a slight chance that stored user-registered data will be lost upon completion of the
update. Please be aware that the manufacturer cannot take any responsibility for lost data
in the event data is lost.
Page 2
Cautions on Updating the Application Program of the Navigation System:
• Stop the vehicle at a safe location. While updating of the program is in progress,
ensure that the power supply of the Navigation System is not turned off.
• When program updating is completed, the Navigation System will be re-booted. After
the system has booted up, make sure not to turn off the power supply for the
Navigation System until the map of your surroundings appears.
• In the worst possible case, there is the risk of data in the Address Book being lost. It
is therefore recommended to use a PC Card (PCMCIA TYPE II <5 V>) to back up
Registered Location(*) data. (Items contained in the “Last Destination” or “Destination
History” cannot be stored on the PC Card. If you want to save these data, register them
as “Registered Location”, then store them on the PC Card.)
*“Registered Location” data includes “Return Home” and “Go to...” contents.
• Any exsisting calculated route would be cancelled.Each of the other settings returns
to their factory settings.
Application Program Updating Procedure:
Update the application program by referring to “Installing the Program” on this manual.
The screen shown in the example may differ from the actual screen.
The actual screen may be changed without notice for performance and function
improvements.

Features of Your DVD Navigation System
A “chip specifically for the positioning accuracy” and “3D Hybrid Sensor” are fitted.
High precision navigation can thus be achieved.
Fitting a chip specifically for positioning accuracy capable of determining the position of
your vehicle, has further enhanced its high precision features. In addition, 3D Hybrid Sensor
installed in the main unit calculates the distance covered by your vehicle precisely, taking into
consideration the contour of the road (hills).
Location precision is further improved by “map matching” function.
Location precision is further improved by the exploitation of information from several GPS
satellites and a map matching function.
Traffic information is reflected in route guidance in real time.
Traffic jam information can be confirmed on a map using RDS-TMC road traffic information.
In addition, should a traffic jam occur along the route being taken under guidance, a new
route guidance avoiding this traffic jam is possible.
Display of various guidance screens
Integration between navigation and audio has been implemented.
Pioneer’s audio equipment can be used with the navigation screen, by addition of the AVHP6400CD or AVH-P6400R display sold separately. Furthermore, not only is conventional
voice operation for navigation possible, but also voice operation of AV equipment became
possible.
Background image can be changed.
You can choose the image to display on the background of the screen during the navigation
operation or while playing audio. You can also select from preset images for the display while

About the route condition
When the calculation of only one route is set, you can search a route option by combining the following conditions (for the details of how to set the calculation conditions, see “Fastest/Shortest” on page 90 and “Avoid Motorway” on page 90).
For example, when “Shortest” and “Avoid Motorway” (“On”) are combined, the
route, which avoids motorway, and has the shortest travel time, will be calculated
and displayed on the screen.
Condition 1 :whether to put priority on the distance, or time
Shortest : Calculate a route with the shortest distance to your destination
as a priority.
Fastest : Calculate a route with the shortest travel time to your destina-
tion as a priority.
Condition 2 :whether to use motorway or not
Avoid Motorway : Calculate a route that avoids motorway. (A route using the
motorway may be set if your destination is far away.)
When two conditions is mixed as “Shortest” & “Avoid Motorway”, the shortest
route to your destination while avoiding a motorway is shown.
