02 Introduction

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 information about traffic regulations applicable at the time when the route was calculated is considered. 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 regulations so you cannot drive along the set route. When driving, please follow the actual traffic signs. Also, the system may not know some traffic regulations.

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.

!This navigation system may in certain circumstances display inaccurate position of your vehicle, the distance of objects shown on the screen, and compass directions. In addition, the system has certain limitations, including the inability to identify oneway streets, temporary traffic restrictions and potentially unsafe driving areas. Please exercise your own judgement in the light of actual driving conditions.

!The navigation features of your navigation system (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.

!Certain country and government laws may prohibit or restrict the placement and use of this system in your vehicle. Please comply with all applicable laws and regulations regarding the use, installation and operation of your navigation system.

!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 fol-

low 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. Stop using any functions relating to the hands-free phoning and 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 set 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 system so high that you cannot hear outside traffic and emergency vehicles.

!The data encoded in the built-in memory 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.

!Please remember to wear your seat belt at all times while operating your vehicle. If you are in an accident, your injuries can be considerably more severe if your seat belt is not properly fastened.

Fuel cost management

These calculations are based only on the information that you provide and not on any data from the vehicle. The fuel mileage displayed is only a reference value, and does not guarantee the fuel mileage displayed can be obtained.

Traffic information

!Pioneer does not bear responsibility for the accuracy of the information transmitted.

!Pioneer does not bear responsibility for changes to information services provided by broadcasting stations or by related companies, such as cancellation of services or changing to pay-services. Also, we do not accept return of the product for this reason.

Speed limit indication

The speed limit is based on the map database. The speed limit in the database may not match the actual speed limit of the current road. This is not a definite value. Be sure to drive according to the actual speed limit.

Lorry navigation

pThis function is only available on AVICF160.

!Based on the dimensions and other entered parameters of your vehicle, this system warns you when you are approaching a restricted road segment or such roads must be used in your route.

!Warnings are both visual and audible. There are different kinds of warnings:

!When approaching a restricted road segment without a route, you are warned that there is a restricted area ahead.

!Restricted road segments are excluded from your routes but in some cases some restricted roads need to be used

to reach the given destination. In this case you receive a warning and you must accept that you have restricted roads in your route or you can stop the navigation and continue without an active route.

pPlease note that lorry navigation is only as accurate and comprehensive as the restrictions received with the map. Restrictions may not cover lower priority roads and in most cases the coverage changes as you move around your map region. You are ob-

liged to always obey the restrictions displayed on the road.

Additional safety information

To avoid battery exhaustion

Be sure to run the vehicle engine while using this product. Using this product without running the engine can drain the battery.
