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

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

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.
