Pioneer does not recommend that you install your navigation system yourself. We
recommend that only authorised Pioneer service personnel, who have special training
and experience in mobile electronics, set up and install this navigation system.
NEVER SERVICE THIS NAVIGATION SYSTEM YOURSELF. Installing or ser­vicing this navigation system and its connecting cables may expose you to the risk of
electric shock or other hazards, and can cause damage to the navigation system that
is not covered by warranty.

• If you decide to perform the installation yourself, and have special training
and experience in the mobile electronics installations, please carefully follow
all of the steps in the Installation Manual.

• Secure all wiring with cable clamps or electrical tape. Do not allow any bare
wiring to remain exposed.

• Do not directly connect the yellow lead of this navigation system to the vehi­cle battery. If the lead is directly connected to the battery, engine vibration
may eventually cause the insulation to fail at the point where the wire passes
from the passenger compartment into the engine compartment. If the yellow
lead’s insulation tears as a result of contact with metal parts, short-circuiting
can occur, resulting in considerable danger.

• It is extremely dangerous to allow the GPS aerial cable or microphone cable
to become wound around the steering column or gearstick. Be sure to install
this navigation system, its cables, and wiring away in such a way that they
will not obstruct or hinder driving.

• Make sure that the cables and wires are routed and secured so they will not
interfere with or become caught in any of the vehicle’s moving parts, espe­cially the steering wheel, gearstick, handbrake, sliding seat tracks, doors, or
any of the vehicle’s controls.

• Do not route wires where they will be exposed to high temperatures. If the
insulation heats up, wires may become damaged, resulting in a short circuit
or malfunction and permanent damage to the navigation system.

• Do not cut the GPS aerial cable to shorten it or use an extension to make it
longer. Altering the aerial cable could result in a short circuit or malfunc­tion.

• Do not shorten any leads. If you do, the protection circuit (fuse holder, fuse
resister or filter, etc.) may fail to work properly.

• Never feed power to other electronic products by cutting the insulation of the
power supply lead of the navigation system and tapping into the lead. The
current capacity of the lead will be exceeded, causing overheating.

• The black lead is earth. Please earth this lead separately from the earth of
high-current products such as power amps. Do not earth more than one
product together with the earth from another product. For example, you
must separately earth any amplifier unit away from the earth of this naviga­tion system. Connecting earths together can cause a fire and/or damage the
products if their earths became detached.

Before installing this navigation system

• This navigation system is for vehicles with a 12-volt battery and negative earthing.

Check the battery voltage of your vehicle before installation.

• To avoid shorts in the electrical sys­tem, be sure to disconnect the (–)
battery cable before beginning
installation.

5

Connecting the System

To prevent damage

• When disconnecting a connector, pull the connector itself. Do not pull the lead, as you
may pull it out of the connector.

• This navigation system cannot be installed in a vehicle that does not have an ACC
(accessory) position on the ignition switch.

• When replacing the fuse, be sure to only use a fuse of the rating prescribed on the fuse
holder.

• To avoid a short-circuit, cover the disconnected lead with insulating tape. Insulate the
unused speaker leads without fail. There is a possibility of a short-circuit if the leads are
not insulated.

• Attach the connectors of the same colour to the corresponding coloured port, i.e., blue
connector to the blue port, black to black, etc.

• Refer to the owner’s manual for details on connecting the power amp and other units,
then make connections accordingly.

• Since a unique BPTL circuit is employed, do not directly earth the ≠ side of the speaker
lead or connect the ≠ sides of the speaker leads together. Be sure to connect the ≠ side
of the speaker lead to the ≠ side of the speaker lead on this navigation system.

• If the RCA pin jack on this navigation system will not be used, do not remove the caps
attached to the end of the connector.

• Speakers connected to this navigation unit must be high-power with minimum rating of
50 W and impedance of 4 to 8 ohms. Connecting speakers with output and/or impedance
values other than those noted here may result in the speakers catching fire, emitting
smoke, or becoming damaged.

• When the ignition switch is turned on (ACC ON), a control signal is output through the
blue/white lead. Connect to an external power amp’s system remote control terminal
(max. 300 mA 12 V DC). The control signal is output through the blue/white lead, even
if the audio source is switched off.

• When an external power amp is being used with this system, be sure not to connect the
blue lead to the amp’s power terminal. Likewise, do not connect the blue lead to the
power terminal of the auto aerial. Such connection could cause excessive current drain
and malfunction as well as damage to the auto aerial of the vehicle.

• When the “Auto ANT” mode is set to “Radio”, the vehicle’s aerial can be stowed or

turned off by following the instructions below.

– Change the source from radio (AM or FM) to another source
– Turn the source off
– Turn off the ignition switch (ACC OFF)

• If the “Auto ANT” mode is set to “Power”, the vehicle’s aerial can be stowed or turned

off only when the ignition switch is turned off (ACC OFF).

When connecting the rear display

When using a rear display connected to rear video output

NEVER install the rear display in a location that enables the driver to watch the
video source while driving.

This navigation system’s rear video output is for connection of a display to enable passen­gers in the rear seats to watch the video source. You can switch the rear screen mode in

“AV Source Menu”. (For details, refer to the Operation Manual.)

Notes:

• The map screen navigation images output to the rear display differ from standard NTSC for­mat images. Therefore, their quality will be inferior to the images that appear on the front dis­play.

• The navigation system automatically switches the colour system (NTSC, PAL, SECAM) for
each video and outputs the video on the “Rear Display”. To correctly output each type of
video on the “Rear Display”, we recommend using a “Rear Display” with a function to auto-
matically switch the colour system (e.g. AVD-W1100V).

Installation

Pioneer does not recommend that you install or service your navigation system
yourself. Installing or servicing the navigation system may expose you to risk
of electric shock or other hazards. Refer all installation and servicing of your
navigation system to authorised Pioneer service personnel.

• Never install this navigation system in places where, or in a manner that:
* It could injure the driver or passengers if the vehicle stops suddenly.
* It may interfere with the driver’s operation of the vehicle, such as on the

floor in front of the driver’s seat, or close to the steering wheel or gear­stick.

• Make sure there is nothing behind the dashboard or panelling when drilling
holes in them. Be careful not to damage fuel lines, brake lines, electronic
components, communication wires or power cables.

• When using screws, do not allow them to come into contact with any electri­cal lead. Vibration may damage wires or insulation, leading to a short circuit
or other damage to the vehicle.

• To ensure proper installation, use the supplied parts in the manner specified.
If any parts other than the supplied ones are used, they may damage internal
parts of this navigation system or they may work loose and the navigation
system may become detached.

• It is extremely dangerous to allow the GPS aerial lead or microphone lead to
become wound around the steering column or gearstick. Be sure to install
this navigation system in such a way that it will not obstruct driving.

• Make sure that leads cannot get caught in a door or the sliding mechanism of
a seat, resulting in a short circuit.

• Please confirm the proper function of your vehicle’s other equipment follow­ing installation of the navigation system.

• Certain 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 install this navigation system 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 airbags, hazard lamp buttons or (iii) impair the
driver’s ability to safely operate the vehicle.

Installation

• Install this navigation system between the driver’s seat and front passenger
seat so that it will not be hit by the driver or passenger if the vehicle stops
quickly.

• Never install this navigation system in front of or next to the place in the
dash, door, or pillar from which one of your vehicle’s airbags would deploy.
Please refer to your vehicle’s Owner’s Manual for reference to the deploy­ment area of the frontal airbags.

• Do not install this navigation system in a place where it will impair the per­formance of any of the vehicle’s operating systems, including airbags and
headrests.

To guard against electromagnetic interference

• In order to prevent interference, set the following items as far as possible from this navi-

gation system, other cables or leads:

- TV aerial and aerial lead

- FM, MW/LW aerial and its lead

- GPS aerial and its lead
In addition you should lay or route each aerial lead as far as possible from other aerial
leads.
Do not bind them together, lay or route them together, or cross them.
Such electromagnetic noise will increase the potential for errors in the location display.

Before installing

• Consult with your nearest dealer if installation requires the drilling of holes or other mod-

ifications of the vehicle.

• Before making a final installation of this navigation system, temporarily connect the

wiring to confirm that the connections are correct and the system works properly.

• Do not install this navigation system in a position where the opening of the LCD panel is

obstructed by any obstacles, such as the shift lever. Before installing this navigation sys­tem, be sure to leave sufficient space so that the LCD panel does not obstruct the shift
lever when it is fully opened. This may cause interference with the shift lever, or a mal­function of the mechanism of this navigation system.

Installing this navigation system

Installation notes

• Do not install this navigation system in places where it may become subject to high tem­peratures or humidity, such as:
* Places close to a heater, vent or air conditioner.
* Places exposed to direct sunlight, such as on top of the dashboard.
* Places that may be splashed by rain, for example close to the door.

• Install this navigation system in an area strong enough to bear its weight. Choose a posi­tion where this navigation system can be firmly installed, and install it securely.
If this navigation system is not securely installed, the current location of the vehicle can­not be displayed correctly.

• Install the navigation system horizontally on a surface within 0 degrees to 30 degrees
tolerance. If the installation angles on the left and right sides exceed 5 degrees, the
allowable range can be increased to 10 degrees by making corrective adjustments.
(Refer to “Correcting the installation angle” in the Operation Manual.) If connection of
the pink lead (CAR SPEED SIGNAL INPUT) is omitted, the angles on the left and right
sides are allowable to within five degrees. Improper installation of the unit with the sur­face tilted more than these tolerances increases the potential for errors in the location
display, and might otherwise cause reduced display performance.

• The cords must not cover up the area shown in the figure below. This is necessary to
allow the amplifiers and navigation mechanism to dissipate heat.

• The semiconductor laser will be damaged if it overheats, so don’t install the navigation
unit anywhere hot — for instance, near a heater outlet.

If the angle exceeds five degrees,
please make corrective adjustments.

Position the navigation unit so that its
screw holes are aligned with the screw
holes of the bracket, and tighten the
screws at 3 or 4 locations on each side.
Use either the binding screws (5 × 6 mm)
or flush surface screws (5 × 6 mm),
depending on the shape of the bracket’s
screw holes.

Installing the GPS aerial

• Do not cut the GPS aerial lead to shorten it or use an extension to make it
longer. Altering the aerial cable could result in a short circuit or malfunction
and permanent damage to the navigation system.

Installation notes

• When installing the GPS aerial inside the vehicle, be sure to use the metal sheet provid-

ed 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 aeri-

al.

• 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.

• The GPS aerial is installed with a magnet. When installing the GPS aerial, be careful

not to scratch the vehicle body.

• When installing the GPS aerial on the outside of the vehicle, always put it in the vehicle

when going through an automatic vehicle wash. If it is left on the outside it may be
knocked off and scratch the vehicle body.

• Do not paint the GPS aerial, as this may affect its performance.

• The aerial should be installed on a

level surface where radio waves will
be blocked as little as possible. Radio
waves cannot be received by the aerial
if reception from the satellite is
blocked.
Installation on the vehicle roof or boot
lid is recommended to optimise recep­tion.
