Important Safety Information
Before using your navigation system, be sure to
read and fully understand the following safety
information:
❒ Read the entire manual before operating this
navigation system.
❒ The navigation features of your navigation sys-
tem (and rear view camera option if purchased) are intended solely as an aid to you in
the operation of your vehicle. It is not a substitute for your attentiveness, judgement, and
care when driving.
❒ Do not operate this navigation system (or the
rear view camera option if purchased) if doing
so will divert your attention in any way from
the safe operation of your vehicle. Always
observe safe driving rules and follow all existing traffic regulations. If you experience difficulty in operating the system or reading the
display, park your vehicle in a safe location
and apply the handbrake before making the
necessary adjustments.
❒ Never allow others to use the system unless
they have read and understood the operating
instructions.
❒ Never use this navigation system to route to
hospitals, police stations, or similar facilities
in an emergency. Please call the appropriate
emergency number.
❒ Route and guidance information displayed by
this equipment is for reference purposes only.
It may not accurately reflect the latest permissible routes, road conditions, one way streets,
road closures, or traffic restrictions.
❒ Traffic restrictions and advisories currently in
force should always take precedence over
guidance given by the navigation system.
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 navigation system
providing improper routing and guidance
instructions.
❒ Never set the volume of your navigation sys-
tem so high that you cannot hear outside traffic and emergency vehicles.
❒ To promote safety, certain functions are disa-
bled unless the vehicle is stopped and/or the
handbrake is applied.
❒ The data encoded in the disc for the naviga-
tion system is the intellectual property of the
provider, and the provider is responsible for
such content.
❒ Keep this manual handy as a reference for
operating procedures and safety information.
❒ Pay close attention to all warnings in this
manual and follow the instructions carefully.
❒ Do not install the navigation unit where it may
(i) obstruct the driver’s vision, (ii) impair the
performance of any of the vehicle’s operating
systems or safety features, including air bags,
hazard lamp buttons or (iii) impair the driver’s
ability to safely operate the vehicle.
❒ Please remember to wear your seat belt at all
times while operating your vehicle. If you are
ever in an accident, your injuries can be considerably more severe if your seat belt is not
properly buckled.
❒ Using the most current map DVDs will allow
for most accurate destination mapping.
Upgrade DVDs are available for purchase
through your local Pioneer dealer.
❒ Never use headphones while driving.
❒ Do not attempt to install or service your navi-
gation system by yourself. Installation or servicing of the navigation system by persons
without training and experience in electronic
equipment and automotive accessories may
be dangerous and could expose you to the risk
of electric shock or other hazards.

Visit us at the following site:
• Register your product. We will keep the details
of your purchase on file to help you refer to this
information in the event of an insurance claim
such as loss or theft.
Precaution
• This navigation system does not work correctly
in areas other than Europe. The RDS (Radio
Data System) function operates only in areas
with FM stations broadcasting RDS signals.
The RDS-TMC service can also be used in the
area where there is a station that broadcasts
the RDS-TMC signal.
“CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT”
This product contains a laser diode of higher class
than 1. To ensure continued safety, do not remove
any covers or attempt to gain access to the inside of
the product.
Refer all servicin g to qualified personnel.
By doing so you will ensure that your disposed
product undergoes the necessary treatment,
recovery and recycling and thus prevent potential
negative effects on the environment and human
health.
• Do not allow this product to come into
contact with liquids. Electrical shock could
result. Also, damage to the product,
smoke, and overheating could result from
contact with liquids.
• The Pioneer CarStereo-Pass is for use only in
Germany.
• Protect this product from moisture.
• If the battery is disconnected or discharged,
the memory will be erased and must be reprogrammed.
Handbrake interlock
Certain functions (such as viewing of DVD-Video
and certain touch key operations) offered by this
navigation system could be dangerous and/or
unlawful if used while driving. To prevent such
functions from being used while the vehicle is in
motion, there is an interlock system that senses
when the handbrake is set and when the vehicle
is moving. If you attempt to use the functions
described above while driving, they will become
disabled until you stop the vehicle in a safe place,
and apply the handbrake. Please keep the brake
pedal pushed down before releasing the handbrake.
If you want to dispose this product,
do not mix it with general household
waste. There is a separate collection
system for used electronic products
in accordance with legislation that
requires proper treatment, recovery
and recycling.
Private households in the 25 member states of
the EU, in Switzerland and Norway may return
their used electronic products free of charge to
designated collection facilities or to a retailer (if
you purchase a similar new one).
For countries not mentioned above, please contact your local authorities for the correct method
of disposal.
• To avoid the risk of damage and injury and
the potential violation of applicable laws,
the navigation system is not for use with a
“Video image” that is visible to the driver.
• In some countries the viewing of “Video
image” on a display inside a vehicle even
by persons other than the driver may be
illegal. Where such regulations apply, they
must be obeyed.
11
MAN-AVIC-D3-EN.book Page 12 Monday, January 15, 2007 8:51 AM
• When applying the handbrake in order to
view “Video image” or to enable other
functions offered by the navigation system, park your vehicle in a safe place, and
keep the brake pedal pushed down before
releasing the handbrake if the vehicle is
parked on a hill or otherwise might move
when releasing the handbrake.
• Accuracy/performance of interlock may be
impacted by such factors as GPS signal
detection, speed pulse wire connectivity,
and driving habits or conditions of the
place where the vehicle is parked.
• It is strongly suggested that the speed
pulse wire be connected for accuracy of
navigation and better performance of
interlock.
• If the speed pulse wire is unavailable for
some reason, it is recommended that the
pulse generator ND-PG1 (sold separately)
be used.
When you attempt to watch “Video image” while
driving, the warning “VIDEO VIEWING IS NOT
AVAILABLE WHILE DRIVING” will appear on
the screen. To watch “Video image” on this display, stop the vehicle in a safe place and apply
the handbrake. Please keep the brake pedal
pushed down before releasing the handbrake.

When the navigation system begins running for the first time, the 3D Hybrid Sensor automatically
begins initial learning. Positioning is performed solely by GPS satellites until the 3D Hybrid Sensor
initial learning is complete, so the location of your vehicle may not be very accurate. This is not an
error. When the initial learning is complete, the location of your vehicle can be detected with high
accuracy.
