02 IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

PLEASE READ ALL OF THESE INSTRUCTIONS REGARDING YOUR NAVIGATION SYSTEM AND RETAIN THEM FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

1Read this manual fully and carefully before installing your navigation system.

2Keep this manual handy for future reference.

3Pay close attention to all warnings in this manual and follow the instructions carefully.

4This navigation system may in certain circumstances display erroneous information regarding the 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 one-way streets, temporary traffic restrictions and potentially unsafe driving areas. Please exercise your own judgment in the light of actual driving conditions.

5As with any accessory in your vehicle’s interior, the navigation system should not divert your attention from the safe operation of your vehicle. If you experience difficulty in operating the system or reading the display, please make adjustments while safely parked.

6Please 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.

WARNING

Do not attempt to install or service your navigation 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.

Connecting the System

Precautions before connecting the system

WARNING

Pioneer does not recommend that you install your navigation system yourself. We recommend that only authorized Pioneer service personnel, who have special training and experience in mobile electronics, set up and install this product. NEVER SERVICE THIS PRODUCT YOURSELF. Installing or servicing this product 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.

CAUTION

!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 product 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-cir- cuiting can occur, resulting in considerable danger.

!It is extremely dangerous to allow the GPS antenna cable to become wound around the steering column or shift lever. Be sure to install this product, its cables, and wiring away in such a way that they will not obstruct or hinder driving.

Section

03

! Make sure that the cables and wires are

English

 

routed and secured so they will not inter-

 

fere with or become caught in any of the

 

vehicle’s moving parts, especially the

 

steering wheel, shift lever, parking brake,

 

sliding seat tracks, doors, or any of the ve-

 

hicle’s controls.

 

! Do not route wires where they will be ex-

 

posed to high temperatures. If the insula-

 

tion heats up, wires may become

 

damaged, resulting in a short circuit or

 

malfunction and permanent damage to

 

the product.

 

! Do not cut the GPS antenna cable to

 

shorten it or use an extension to make it

 

longer. Altering the antenna cable could

 

result in a short circuit or malfunction.

 

! Do not shorten any leads. If you do, the

 

protection circuit (fuse holder, fuse resis-

 

tor or filter, etc.) may fail to work properly.

 

! Never feed power to other electronic pro-

 

ducts by cutting the insulation of the

 

power supply lead of the navigation sys-

 

tem and tapping into the lead. The current

 

capacity of the lead will be exceeded,

 

causing overheating.

 

! The black lead is ground. Please ground

 

this lead separately from the ground of

 

high-current products such as power

 

amps. Do not ground more than one pro-

 

duct together with the ground from an-

 

other product. For example, you must

 

separately ground any amplifier unit away

 

from the ground of this navigation sys-

 

tem. Connecting grounds together can

 

cause a fire and/or damage the products if

 

their grounds became detached.

03 Connecting the System

Before installing this product

!This product is for vehicles with a 12-volt battery and negative grounding. 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.

To prevent damage

WARNING

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

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

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

!When the “Antenna Control” mode is set to “Radio”, the vehicle’s antenna 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 “Antenna Control” mode is set to “Power”, the vehicle’s antenna can be stowed or turned off only when the ignition switch is turned off (ACC OFF).

!To avoid short-circuiting, cover the disconnected lead with insulating tape. It is especially important to insulate all unused speaker leads, which if left uncovered may cause a short circuit.

!Attach the connectors of the same color to the corresponding colored 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 ground 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 product will not be used, do not remove the caps attached to the end of the connector.

!Never connect speakers with an output rating of less than 50 W channel or impedance outside of the 4 ohms to 8 ohms specifications to your navigation system. 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.

6 En

Connecting the System

!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/white lead to the amp’s power terminal. Likewise, do not connect the blue lead to the power terminal of the auto antenna. Such connection could cause excessive current drain and malfunction as well

as damage to the auto antenna of the vehicle.
