Pink (CAR SPEED SIGNAL INPUT)

This product is connected here to detect the distance the vehicle travels. Always connect the vehicle’s speed detection circuit. Failure to make this connection will increase errors in the vehicle’s location display.

WARNING

IMPROPER CONNECTION MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS DAMAGE OR INJURY INCLUDING ELECTRICAL SHOCK, AND INTERFERENCE WITH THE OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE´S ANTILOCK BRAKING SYSTEM, AUTOMATIC GEARBOX AND SPEEDOMETER INDICATION.

CAUTION

It is strongly suggested that the speed pulse wire be connected for accuracy of navigation and better performance.

Note

The position of the speed detection circuit and the position of the handbrake switch vary depending on the vehicle model. For details, consult your authorised Pioneer dealer or an installation professional.

Violet/white (REVERSE-GEAR SIGNAL INPUT)

This is connected so that this product can detect whether the vehicle is moving forwards or backwards. Connect the violet/white lead to the lead whose voltage changes when the reverse gear is engaged. Unless connected, the sensor may not detect your vehicle travelling forward/backward properly, and thus the position of your vehicle detected by the sensor may be misaligned from the actual position.

Note

When you use a rear view camera, please make sure to connect this lead. Otherwise you cannot switch to the rear view camera picture.

03 Installation

!Before making a final installation of this product, temporarily connect the wiring to confirm that the connections are correct and the system works properly.

For AVIC-F77DAB and AVICF70DAB users

Do not install this product in a position where the opening of the LCD panel is obstructed by any obstacles, such as the gearstick. Before installing this product, be sure to leave sufficient space so that the LCD panel does not obstruct the gearstick when it is fully opened. This may cause interference with the gearstick, or a malfunction of the mechanism of this product.

!Install this product horizontally on a surface within 0 to 30 degrees tolerance (within 5 degrees to the left or right). Improper installation of the unit with the surface tilted more than these tolerances increases the potential for errors in the vehicle’s location display, and might otherwise cause reduced display performance.

!When installing the GPS aerial inside the vehicle, be sure to use the metal sheet provided with your system. If this is not used, the reception sensitivity will be poor.

!Do not cut the accessory metal sheet. This would reduce the sensitivity of the GPS aerial.

!Take care not to pull the aerial lead when removing the GPS aerial. The magnet attached to the aerial is very powerful, and the lead may become detached.

When installing the aerial inside the vehicle (on the dashboard or rear shelf)

WARNING

Do not install the GPS aerial over any sensors or vents on the dashboard of the vehicle, as doing so may interfere with the proper functioning of such sensors or vents and may compromise the ability of the metal sheet under the GPS aerial to properly and securely affix to the dashboard.

2 1

Make sure the surface is free of moisture, dust, grime, oil, etc., before affixing the metal sheet.

Note

The metal sheet contains a strong adhesive which may leave a mark on the surface if it is removed.

1GPS aerial

2Metal sheet

Peel off the protective sheet on the rear.

3Clamps

Use separately sold clamps to secure the lead where necessary inside the vehicle.

Affix the metal sheet on the surface as level as possible where the GPS aerial faces the window. Place the GPS aerial on the metal sheet. (The GPS aerial is fastened with its magnet.)

Notes

!When attaching the metal sheet, do not cut it into small pieces.

!Some models use window glass that does not allow signals from GPS satellites to pass through. On such models, install the GPS aerial on the outside of the vehicle.
