To Users Updating the Application Program

You need an AV Head Unit or Display with touch panel capabil­ity to use this software.
Make sure to use a display suitable for this system.

This software can be used with the following models:
AVIC-9DVD, AVIC-90DVD, AVIC-80DVD, AVIC-88DVD

Please read the cautions on the next page before using the CNDV-40MT disc as
there is a possible risk that the stored user-registered data may lost upon comple­tion of the update. Please be aware that the manufacturer cannot take any responsibility

for lost data in the event the data is lost.
Upgrading to the newer version ➞ page 55

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.

Cautions on Updating the Application Program of the Navigation System:

• Stop the vehicle in a safe location. While the program update is in progress, ensure
that the power supply of the Navigation System is not turned off.

• When the update procedure is complete, the Navigation System will be restarted.After
the system has started up again, make sure not to turn off the power supply for the
Navigation System until the map of your surroundings appears.

• During the update process, there is the possible risk of the “Address Book”(*) data and
the “Destination History” data being lost. It is highly recommended to use a PC Card
(PCMCIA TYPE II <5 V>) to back up Address Book data. (Since the “Destination
History” cannot be stored on a PC Card directly, to keep the “Destination History” data,
first store it in the Address Book, then onto the PC Card.)
*“Address Book” data includes “Return Home” and “Go to” contents.

•Any existing calculated routes will be canceled.

•Personalized settings will return to their factory settings.

Application Program Update Procedure

Refer to the update procedure in the “Installing the Program” section (P.55) of this man­ual.

Always obey current traffic restrictions, even if
the navigation system provides contrary
advice.

❒ Failure to input correct information about the

local time may result in the product providing
improper routing and guidance instructions.

❒ Never set the volume of your Navigation Sys-

Precaution

Parking brake interlock

Certain functions offered by this Navigation Sys­tem could be dangerous if used while driving. To
prevent them being used while in motion, there is
an interlock with your vehicle’s parking brake. If
you attempt to use these functions during driv­ing, their onscreen touch keys may be indicated
in gray and inoperable. If so, stop in a safe place,
apply the parking brake, then operate.

To ensure safe driving

• To avoid the risk of accident and the
potential violation of applicable laws, the
navigation system is not for use with a
video screen (DVD video, TV, etc.) that is
visible to the driver.

• In some countries or states the viewing of
images on a display inside a vehicle even
by persons other than the driver may be
illegal. Where such regulations apply, they
must be obeyed.

The navigation system detects whether your vehi­cle’s parking brake is engaged or not, and pre­vents you from watching a DVD or TV on this
display while driving. When you attempt to watch
a DVD or TV, the warning VIDEO VIEWING IS
NOT AVAILABLE WHILE DRIVING will
appear on the screen.

11

To watch a DVD or TV on this display, park your
vehicle in a safe place and apply the parking
brake.
