About this manual

This unit features a number of sophisticated functions ensuring superior reception and operation. All the functions have been designed for the easiest possible use, but many are not selfexplanatory. This operation manual will help you benefit fully from this product’s potential and to maximize your listening enjoyment. We recommend that you familiarize yourself with the functions and their operation by reading through the manual before you begin using this unit. It is especially important that you read and observe precautions on this page and in other sections. This manual explains head unit operation. You can perform the same operations with the steering remote control.

Precautions

• The Pioneer CarStereo-Pass is for use only in Germany.

• Keep this manual handy as a reference for operating procedures and precautions.

• Always keep the volume low enough so you can hear sounds outside of the car.

• Protect this product from moisture.

• If the battery is disconnected or discharged, the preset memory will be erased and must be reprogrammed.

In case of trouble

Should this product fail to operate properly, contact your dealer or nearest authorized Pioneer Service Station.

Selecting alternative frequencies

If you are listening to a broadcast and the reception becomes weak or there are other problems, the unit will automatically search for a different station in the same network which is broadcasting a stronger signal.

• AF is on as a default.

1 Press

FUNCTION to select AF.

Press FUNCTION until AF appears in the dis- play.

2 Press 5 to turn AF on.

Press 5 and AF :ON is displayed.

3 Press ∞ to turn AF off.

Press ∞ and AF :OFF is displayed.

Notes

• Only RDS stations are tuned in during seek tuning or BSM when AF is on.

• When you recall a preset station, the tuner may update the preset station with a new frequency from the station’s AF list. (This is only available when using presets on the FM1 or FM2 band.) No preset number appears on the display if the RDS data for the station received differs from that for the originally stored station.

• Sound may be temporarily interrupted by another program during a AF frequency search.

• When the tuner is tuned to a non-RDS station the AF indicator flashes.

• AF can be switched on or off independently for each FM band.

Using PI Seek

If the unit fails to find a suitable alternative frequency, or if you are listening to a broadcast and the reception becomes weak, the unit will automatically search for a different station with the same programming. During the search, PI

Seek is displayed and the output is muted. The

muting is discontinued after completion of the PI seek, whether or not a different station is found.

Using Auto PI Seek for preset stations

When preset stations cannot be recalled, as when travelling long distances, the unit can be set to perform PI Seek during preset recall.

• The default setting for Auto PI Seek is off. See Switching Auto PI Seek on page 37.

Limiting stations to regional programming

When AF is used to automatically retune frequencies, the regional function limits the selection to stations broadcasting regional programs.

1 Press FUNCTION to select REG.

Press FUNCTION until Regional appears in the display.

2 Press 5 to turn the regional function on.

Press 5 and Regional :ON is displayed.

3 Press ∞ to turn the regional function off.

Press ∞ and Regional :OFF is displayed.

Notes

• Regional programming and regional networks are organized differently depending on the country (i.e., they may change according to the hour, state or broadcast area).

Section

RDS

• The preset number may disappear on the display if the tuner tunes in a regional station which differs from the originally set station.

• REG can be turned on or off independently for each FM band.

Receiving traffic announcements

TA (traffic announcement standby) lets you receive traffic announcements automatically, no matter what source you are listening to. TA can be activated for both a TP station (a station that broadcasts traffic information) or an enhanced other network’s TP station (a station carrying information which cross-references TP stations).

1 Tune in a

TP or enhanced other network’s

TP station.

When you are tuned into a TP or enhanced other network’s TP station the TP indicator ( ) will light.

2 Press

TA to turn traffic announcement

standby on.

Press

TA until TA O N appears in the display. The

tuner will standby for traffic announcements.

• To turn traffic announcements standby off,

press TA again.

3 Use VOLUME to adjust the TA volume when a traffic announcement begins.

Rotate to increase or decrease the volume. The newly set volume is stored in memory and recalled for subsequent traffic announcements.

4 Press TA while a traffic announcement is being received to cancel the announcement.

The tuner returns to the original source but remains in the standby mode until TA is pressed again.

Notes

• You can also turn on or off TA in the setting menu that appears with the pressing of

FUNCTION.

• The system switches back to the original source following traffic announcement reception.

• Only TP and enhanced other network’s TP stations are tuned in during seek tuning or BSM when TA is on.

Responding to the TP alarm

When a TP or enhanced other network’s TP station is lost due to a weak signal a series of short beeps, about five seconds long, sound to remind you to select another TP or enhanced other network’s TP station.

When listening to the tuner, tune in another

TP or enhanced other network’s TP station.

• When listening to sources other than the

tuner, the unit will automatically seek out a TP station with the strongest signal after a 10- or 30-second delay. The delay is 10 seconds if TA is on and 30 seconds if TA and AF are on.

When the station stops broadcasting the emergency announcement, the system returns to the previous source.

• An emergency announcement can be can-

celled by pressing TA.

RDS

Using radio text

This tuner can display radio text data transmitted by RDS stations, such as station information, the name of the currently broadcast song and the name of the artist.
