Important Safety Information
Before using your navigation system, be sure
to read and fully understand the following
safety information:
WARNING
!Do not attempt to install or service your navi-
gation system by yourself. Installation or servi-
cing 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.
!When a route is calculated, the route and
voice guidance for the route is automatically
set. Also, for day or time traffic regulations,
only information about traffic regulations at
the time when the route was calculated is
shown. One-way streets and street closures
may not be taken into consideration. For ex-
ample, 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 fol-
low the actual traffic signs. Also, the system
may not know some traffic regulations.
pRead the entire manual before operating
this navigation system.
pThe navigation features of your navigation
system (and rear view camera option if pur-
chased) are intended solely as an aid to
you in the operation of your vehicle. It is
not a substitute for your attentiveness,
judgment, and care when driving.
pDo 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 ex-
perience difficulty in operating the system
or reading the display, park your vehicle in
a safe location and apply the parking brake
before making the necessary adjustments.
pNever allow others to use the system un-
less they have read and understood the op-
erating instructions.
pNever use this navigation system to route
to hospitals, police stations or similar facil-
ities in an emergency. Stop using any func-
tions relating to the hands-free phone and
please call 911.
pRoute 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 restric-
tions.
pTraffic restrictions and advisories currently
in force should always take precedence
over guidance given by the navigation sys-
tem. Always obey current traffic restric-
tions, even if the navigation system
provides contrary advice.
pFailure to set correct information about the
local time may result in the navigation sys-
tem providing improper routing and gui-
dance instructions.
pNever set the volume of your navigation
system so high that you cannot hear out-
side traffic and emergency vehicles.
pTo promote safety, certain functions are dis-
abled unless the vehicle is stopped and/or
the parking brake is applied.
pThe data encoded in the hard disk drive for
the navigation system is the intellectual
property of the provider, and the provider is
responsible for such content.
pKeep this manual handy as a reference for
operating procedures and safety informa-
tion.
pPay close attention to all warnings in this
manual and follow the instructions care-
fully.
pDo not install this navigation system where
it may (i) obstruct the driver’s vision, (ii) im-
pair the performance of any of the vehicle’s
operating systems or safety features, in-
cluding air bags or hazard lamp buttons or
(iii) impair the driver’s ability to safely oper-
ate the vehicle.

Before Using the System
![](asset-16.png)

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.
pNever use headphones while driving.
Additional Safety Information
To ensure safe driving
Parking brake interlock
Certain functions (such as viewing of DVD
video and certain touch panel key operations)
offered by this navigation system could be
dangerous and/or unlawful if used while driv-
ing. To prevent such functions from being
used while the vehicle is in motion, there is an
interlock system that senses when the parking
brake is set and when the vehicle is moving. If
you attempt to use the functions described
above while driving, they will become disabled
until you stop the vehicle in a safe place, and
apply the parking brake. Please keep the brake
pedal pushed down before releasing the park-
ing brake.
WARNING
!To avoid the risk of damage and injury and the
potential violation of applicable laws, the navi-
gation system is not for use with a “Video
image”that is visible to the driver.
!In some countries or states the viewing of
“Video image”on a display inside a vehicle
even by persons other than the driver may be
illegal. Where such regulations apply, they
must be obeyed.
!When applying the parking brake in order to
view “Video image”or to enable other func-
tions offered by the navigation system, park
your vehicle in a safe place, and keep the
brake pedal pushed down before releasing the
parking brake if the vehicle is parked on a hill
or otherwise might move when releasing the
parking brake.
CAUTION
!Accuracy/performance of interlock may be im-
pacted by such factors as GPS signal detec-
tion, speed pulse wire connectivity, and
driving habits or conditions of the place where
the vehicle is parked.
!It is strongly suggested that the speed pulse
wire be connected for accuracy of navigation
and better performance of interlock.
!If the speed pulse wire is unavailable for some
reason, it is recommended that the pulse gen-
erator ND-PG1 (sold separately) be used.
When you attempt to watch “Video image”
while driving, the warning “Viewing of front
seat video source while driving is strictly
prohibited.”will appear on the screen. To
watch “Video image”on this display, stop the
vehicle in a safe place and apply the parking
brake. Please keep the brake pedal pushed
down before releasing the parking brake.
Rear view camera and [Rear View]
mode
With an optional rear view camera, you are
able to use the navigation system as an aid to
keep an eye on trailers or to back into a tight
parking spot.
WARNING
!SCREEN IMAGE MAY APPEAR REVERSED.
!USE INPUT ONLY FOR REVERSE OR MIRROR
IMAGE REAR VIEW CAMERA. OTHER USE
MAY RESULT IN INJURY OR DAMAGE.

About XM NavTraffic Service
and Pioneer Navigation
pXM NavTraffic subscription is required and
is available only in select markets. Check
www.xmnavtraffic.com for service availabil-
ity, pricing information, and other details.
The availability of XM NavTraffic data de-
pends on the ability of the antenna to re-
ceive a signal. The signal may be
unavailable if obstructed (e.g., by buildings,
mountains, trees, bridges, bad weather,
etc.). XM NavTraffic data also may be una-
vailable or not current if the original data
source is not providing data (e.g., sched-
uled or unscheduled downtime) or has not
been updated, or if there is a time lag be-
tween the time when the original data
source is updated and when you receive
the updated XM NavTraffic data.
pDepending on the amount of data being
transmitted in your area, it may take several
minutes to display all of the available data.
pThe information content depends on the in-
formation provided by XM NavTraffic Ser-
vice, including data refreshing and
availability timing.
pPioneer does not bear responsibility for the
accuracy of the information transmitted.
pPioneer does not bear responsibility for
changes to information services provided
by XM, such as cancellation of the services
or subscription updates.

Notes for Hard Disk Drive
Recording equipment and
copyright
Recording equipment should be used only for
lawful copying and you are advised to check
carefully what defines lawful copying in the
country in which you are making a copy. Copy-
ing of copyright material such as films or
music is unlawful unless permitted by a legal
exception or consented to by the right owners.
Notes when writing data to the
hard disk drive at low temperature
Writing to the hard disk drive, such as record-
ing music to the music library, may be dis-
abled when the navigation system detects
abnormally low temperatures inside the vehi-
cle. Functionality will become available once
the temperature inside the vehicle returns to
normal. Additionally, if the low temperature
continues for a long time, the system may be
booted up with the preliminary mode because
the system can not recognize the hard disk
drive.

tents that could not be recorded or any loss
of recorded data due to a malfunction or
failure of the navigation system.

is not allowed to be used without permis-
sion from its right holder under copyright
law, except for personal entertainment.

Using XM NavTraffic
Information
If you have a GEX-P10XMT XM Digital Satellite
Data & Audio Receiver (sold separately) at-
tached to the navigation system and have an
active subscription to XM NavTraffic service,
you can view current traffic conditions and in-
formation on your navigation display. When
the unit receives updated traffic information,
the navigation system will overlay the traffic in-
formation on your map and also display de-
tailed text information when available. When
you are traveling along a route and there is
traffic information on your current route, the
system will detect it and ask you if you would
like to be rerouted, or suggest another route
automatically.
pThe system acquires the traffic information
up to 100 miles in radius from the vehicle
position. (If there is a lot of traffic informa-
tion around your vehicle, the radius will be
shorter than 100 miles.)
pThe navigation system provides the follow-
ing functions by using the information
from XM NavTraffic:
—Displaying a list of traffic information
—Displaying traffic information on a map
—Suggesting a route to avoid traffic con-
gestion by using traffic information
pThe term “traffic congestion”in this section
indicates the following types of traffic infor-
mation: stop and go, stopped traffic,
closed/blocked roads. This information is
always taken into consideration when
checking your route, and the information
related with these events cannot be turned
off. If you select other traffic information in
[Traffic Settings], the information can be
displayed in a list or on a map.

Hands-free Phoning Overview
CAUTION
For your safety, avoid talking on the phone as
much as possible while driving.
If your cellular phone features Bluetooth®
technology, this navigation system can be con-
nected to your cellular phone wirelessly. Using
this hands-free function, you can operate the
navigation system to make or receive phone
calls. You can also transfer the phone book
data stored in your cellular phone to the navi-
gation system. This section describes how to
set up a Bluetooth connection and how to op-
erate a cellular phone featuring Bluetooth
technology on the navigation system.
The following description assumes that the de-
vice name of the cellular phone to be con-
nected using Bluetooth wireless technology is
set to [My mobile phone].
Preparing communication devices
To use the cellular phone featuring Bluetooth
wireless technology on the navigation system,
the Bluetooth unit (ND-BT1) (sold separately)
is required.
Precautions for using a cellular phone
featuring Bluetooth technology
By connecting the Bluetooth unit (sold sepa-
rately), you can use the functions described in
this manual, including hands-free phoning or
phone book transfer. To use these functions,
the cellular phone featuring Bluetooth wireless
technology that you want to connect must
have a supported profile that is the same as
the profile for the Bluetooth unit. For the sup-
ported profile, refer to the owner’s manual of
the Bluetooth unit.
pPlease read “Notes for hands-free phoning”
for your reference.
=For details, refer to Notes for hands-free
phoning on page 86
pWhen the power of the navigation system
turns off, the Bluetooth connection is also
disconnected. When the system restarts,
the system automatically attempts to re-
connect the Previously connected cellular
phone. Even when the connection is cut for
some reason, the system automatically re-
connects the specified cellular phone (ex-
cept when the connection is cut by the
cellular phone operation).
You can open [Phone Menu] directly by press-
ing and holding MENU button.
pYou can check the signal strength for con-
nection between your cellular phone and
Bluetooth unit (sold separately) with [Con-
nection Status]in[Hardware] Menu.

total data size of the CD-R (-RW) is greater
than 100 MB by storing dummy data or other
filler information. Otherwise, the disc may not
be recognized by the built-in DVD drive.
pYou cannot use a CD-R (-RW) containing
MP3 files or Audio data (CD-DA part) for
importing pictures.
pWhen storing pictures on a CD-R (-RW),
create a folder named “Pictures”in the CD-
R (-RW), and store the picture files in this
folder. (Up to 200 picture files can be used
in total, including pictures that are already
stored in the hard disk drive and pictures in
the CD-R (-RW).)

pWhen you burn a CD-R (-RW), limit the
number of folder hierarchy levels to eight.
pYou can only use a CD-R (-RW) finalized
with single-session for importing pictures.
pYou can only use a CD-R (-RW) finalized
with “Mode1”for importing pictures.
pOnly JPEG format (“.jpg”or “.JPG”) pictures
can be used. Progressive format JPEG pic-
tures cannot be used.
pUsing only the standard Latin characters
(alphabets of both cases: A-Z,a-z) and
numbers (0-9) is recommended for the file
name. If you want to use letters with diacri-
tical marks (such as äor è) for file name, fi-
nalize the CD-R(-RW) with Joliet (Unicode)
format.
pPictures up to a maximum of 2 592 x 1 944
pixels can be used. We cannot guarantee
proper operation for a picture bigger than
this size.
pAfter changing a set image that was im-
ported from a CD-R (-RW), you must use
the CD-R (-RW) where the image is re-
corded to restore the previous Splash
Screen.

Notes on CD recording
pOperations on the navigation system may
take more time during recording than nor-
mal.
pTracks from a CD are recorded in 4 times
speed. You can listen to that sound during
recording.
pThe data is recorded using a highly efficient
compression method, so the sound may
slightly differ from the original depending
on the sound source. Noise may be heard
in some cases, but this is not an malfunc-
tion.
pRecording is possible only with a CD that
contains 44.1 kHz, 16-bit-stereo PCM digital
audio data.
pRecording (or copying) to the music library
is not possible from recording media (such
as CD-Rs) in which a CD or other data is di-
gitally stored. This is due to the Serial Copy
Management System (SCMS) that was de-
veloped to prevent second-generation or se-
rial copies.
pRecording to the music library is not possi-
ble from media (such as CD-Rs) in which
MP3 files are stored.
pWhen you are recording a CD with no track
intervals (such as a live concert CD), if the
engine stops and the power turns off, the
sound may break in a track when the
music data is played back.

cautions about handling hard disk drive.

To Ensure Safe Driving
CAUTION
For safety reasons, Voice Help menu (Voice Reco-
g.Help) is not available while your vehicle is in
motion. To enable this function, you must stop in
a safe place and put on the parking brake before
setting your route.
Depending on the selected languages, the
commands that you registered before may not
be available.
=For details, refer to Available Voice Com-
mands on page 159
Basics of Voice Operation
Your Pioneer navigation system uses the latest
in voice recognition technology. You can use
voice commands to operate many of its func-
tions. This chapter describes where you can
use voice commands, and also what com-
mands the system accepts.
Flow of voice operation
You can start voice operation any time even
when the map screen is displayed or audio is
operated. (Some operations are not available.)
The basic steps of voice operation are as fol-
lows.
1 Touch VOICE icon to activate voice op-
eration.
2 Speak a command into the microphone
after the beep.
3 When the command is recognized, the
navigation system displays the response
message on the screen, and pronounces it
in some cases.
4 As necessary, repeat Step 3.
5 The requested operation will be carried
out.
pThe voice operation may not be operable for a
minute after the navigation system has booted
up.
pIf you operate using “CD-SR1”Steering Re-
mote Control (sold separately), the following
buttons can be used for operation:
VR ACTIVATION / OFF HOOK button:
Same function as VOICE icon.
VR CANCEL / ON HOOK button:
Return to previous screen.

pDepending on the operating state of the na-
vigation system, some commands dis-
played in Voice Help may be unavailable.
Available commands are in white and una-
vailable commands are in gray.
When using voice operation for the
first time
Until you are familiar with this system, it is re-
commended that you stop the vehicle in a safe
place and refer to the commands displayed in
the Voice Help menu (a list of the words you
can speak). When your vehicle is parked with
the parking brake on, see the Voice Help
menu and speak voice command on that
menu (except for some cases).
Voice Help menu
VOICE icon
!When voice command is possible
!When voice command is not accepted
pWhen you say “Voice Help”, the navigation
system pronounces the displayed words
that can be vocalized.
pIf no voice icon is displayed, check to see
whether the microphone is properly con-
nected and turn the power on again.
pIf there are multiple pages, the voice help
menu can be switched by using or
on the screen. You can also switch
the page by saying “Next page”or “Pre-
vious page”.
pIf you say “Back”or touch [Back], the
screen returns to the previous screen.
To cancel voice operation
You can cancel voice operation features at any
time by saying “Cancel”. After you cancel
voice operation, the map is displayed.
pIf no command is made in the next 6 sec-
onds or the recognition fails three times
successively, the voice recognition
switches to standby mode. To reactivate
voice operation, touch VOICE icon.
Tips for Voice Operation
For your voice commands to be correctly re-
cognized and interpreted, ensure that condi-
tions are suitable for recognition.
Reduce the volume setting on your
vehicle audio system
=For details, refer to Switching the muting/at-
tenuation timing on page 150
Close the vehicle windows
Please note that wind through the vehicle win-
dow or miscellaneous noise from outside the
vehicle can interfere with voice operation.
Position the microphone carefully
For optimum pick-up, the microphone should
be fixed at a suitable distance directly in front
of the driver.
Pause before giving a command
Speaking too soon may cause the recognition
to fail.
Pronounce your commands carefully
Speak slowly, deliberately, and clearly.
pIf the registered voice command and the
default voice command is the same, the re-
gistered voice command (e.g. the pronun-
ciation for the entry in “Address Book”and
the playlist in Music library ) will take prior-
ity. In this case, the default voice command
will not function. To use the default voice
command, change or delete the registered
voice command that is identical to the de-
fault voice command.

Troubleshooting
If you have problems operating your navigation system, refer to this section. The most common
problems are listed below, along with likely causes and solutions. While this list is not comprehen-
sive, it should answer your most common problems. If a solution to your problem cannot be
found here, contact your dealer or the nearest authorized Pioneer service facility.
Problems in the screen
Symptom Cause Action (See)
Power doesn’t turn on. The navi-
gation system doesn’t operate.
Leads and connectors are incor-
rectly connected.
Confirm once more that all connections are
correct.
The fuse is blown. Rectify the reason for the fuse blowing, then
replace the fuse. Be very sure to install a cor-
rect fuse with the same rate.
Noise and other factors are causing
the internal memory to operate in-
correctly.
Refer to “Page 187”and carry out appropriate
measures.
The hard disk drive is not working
because the temperature is extre-
mely low or high.
Wait until the temperature inside the vehicle
falls or rises.
When the ignition switch is
turned ON (or turned to ACC),
the motor sounds.
This system confirms whether a
disc is loaded or not.
This is a normal operation.
The navigation does not boot up. The power cable is not wired cor-
rectly.
Turn the system off and the check the wiring.
The hard disk drive is not running
because the temperature is too low.
Wait until the inside of the vehicle warms up.
The hard disk drive is defective. Consult your authorized Pioneer dealer.

You cannot position your vehicle
on the map or the positioning
error is large.
The quality of signals from the GPS
satellites is poor, causing reduced
positioning accuracy. Such a loss of
signal quality may happen for the
following reasons:
•The GPS antenna is in an unsuita-
ble location.
•Obstacles are blocking signals
from the satellites.
•The position of satellites relative to
your vehicle is bad.
•Signals from the GPS satellites
have been modified to reduce accu-
racy. (GPS satellites are operated by
the US Department of Defense, and
the US government reserves the
right to distort positioning data for
military reasons. This may lead to
greater positioning errors.)
•If a vehicle phone or cellular
phone is used near the GPS anten-
na, GPS reception may be lost tem-
porarily.
•Do not cover the GPS antenna
with spray paint or vehicle wax, be-
cause this may block the reception
of GPS signals. Snow buildup can
also degrade the signals.
Check the GPS signal reception and the posi-
tion of the GPS antenna if necessary, or con-
tinue driving until reception improves. Keep
the antenna clear. (Page 90)
Signals from the vehicle’s speed
pulse are not being picked up prop-
erly.
Check that the cables are properly connected.
If necessary, consult the dealer that installed
the system.
The navigation system may not be
mounted securely in your vehicle.
Check that the navigation system is securely
mounted and, if necessary, consult the dealer
that installed the system.
Your vehicle is operating in Simple
hybrid mode.
Connect the speed signal input (pink lead
wire) of the power cable correctly, and reset
the 3D Hybrid Sensor memory ([Learning
Status]).
The navigation system is installed
with an extreme angle exceeding
the limitation of the installation
angle.
Confirm the installation angle. (The naviga-
tion system must be installed within the al-
lowed installation angle. For details, refer to
“Installation Manual”and [Installation
Angle Setup].) (Page 92)
Indication of the position of your ve-
hicle is misaligned after a U-turn or
reversing.
Check whether or not the reverse gear signal
input lead (purple) is connected properly.
(The navigation system works properly with-
out the lead connected, but positioning accu-
racy will be adversely affected.)
The map continually reorients it-
self.
The traveling direction is always set
to Heading Up.
Touch on the screen and change the map
display.

Positioning Technology
The navigation system accurately measures
your current location by combining the posi-
tioning by GPS and by Dead Reckoning.
Positioning by GPS
The Global Positioning System (GPS) uses a
network of satellites orbiting the Earth. Each
of the satellites, which orbit at a height of
68 900 000 feet (21 000 km), continually broad-
casts radio signals giving time and position in-
formation. This ensures that signals from at
least three can be picked up from any open
area on the ground’s surface.
Appendix
En 191
Appendix
Appendix
![](asset-c0.png)
The accuracy of the GPS information depends
on how good the reception is. When the sig-
nals are strong and reception is good, GPS
can determine latitude, longitude and altitude
for accurate positioning in three dimensions.
But if signal quality is poor, only two dimen-
sions, latitude and longitude, can be obtained
and positioning errors are somewhat greater.
Positioning by dead reckoning
The 3D Hybrid Sensor in the navigation system
also calculates your position. The current loca-
tion is measured by detecting driving distance
with the speed pulse, the turning direction
with the Gyrosensor and inclination of the
road with the G sensor.
The 3D Hybrid Sensor can even calculate
changes of altitude, and corrects for discre-
pancies in the distance traveled caused by
driving along winding roads or up slopes.
Also, the navigation system learns the driving
conditions and stores information in the mem-
ory; thus, as you drive more, the precision of
the positioning becomes more accurate.
The method of positioning changes as follows
depending on whether the speed pulse of your
vehicle is detected or not:
3D hybrid mode
This is active when the speed pulse is de-
tected. Inclination of a street can be detected.
Simple hybrid mode
When the speed pulse is not detected, posi-
tioning is performed in this mode. Only hori-
zontal movement is detected, so it becomes
less accurate. Also, when the positioning by
GPS is not available, such as when your vehi-
cle enters a long tunnel, the discrepancy be-
tween your actual and calculated position may
become bigger.
pThe speed pulse data comes from the
speed sensing circuit. The location of this
speed sensing circuit depends on your ve-
hicle model. In some cases, it is impossible
to make a connection to it, and in such a
case we recommend that ND-PG1 speed
pulse generator (sold separately) be used.
How do GPS and dead
reckoning work together?
For maximum accuracy, your navigation sys-
tem continually compares GPS data with your
estimated position as calculated from the data
of 3D Hybrid Sensor. However, if only the data
from the 3D Hybrid Sensor is available for a
long period, positioning errors are gradually
compounded until the estimated position be-
comes unreliable. For this reason, whenever
GPS signals are available, they are matched
with the data of the 3D Hybrid Sensor and
used to correct it for improved accuracy.
To ensure maximum accuracy, the dead reck-
oning system learns with experience. By com-
paring the position it estimates with your
actual position as obtained using GPS, it can
correct for various types of error, such as tire
wear and the rolling motion of your vehicle. As
you drive, the dead reckoning system gradu-
ally gathers more data, learns more, and the
accuracy of its estimates gradually increases.
So, after you have driven some distance, you
can expect your position as shown on the map
to show fewer errors.
pIf you use chains on your wheels for winter
driving or put on the spare wheel, errors
may suddenly increase because of differ-
ence in wheel diameter. The system detects
the fact that the tire diameter has changed,
and automatically replaces the value for
calculating distance.
Appendix
En
192
Appendix
![](asset-c1.png)
pIf ND-PG1 is used or if your vehicle is oper-
ating in Simple hybrid mode, the distance
calculation value cannot be replaced auto-
matically.
Map matching
As mentioned, the GPS and dead reckoning
systems used by this navigation system are
susceptible to certain errors. Their calcula-
tions may, on occasion, place you in a location
on the map where no road exists. In this situa-
tion, the processing system understands that
vehicles travel only on roads, and can correct
your position by adjusting it to a nearby road.
This is called map matching.
With map matching
Without map matching
Handling Large Errors
Positioning errors are kept to a minimum by
combining GPS, Dead Reckoning, and map
matching. However, in some situations, these
functions may not work properly, and the error
may become bigger.
When the positioning by GPS is
impossible
!If signals cannot be received from more
than two GPS satellites, GPS positioning
does not take place.
!In some driving conditions, signals from
GPS satellites may not reach your vehicle.
In this case, it is impossible for the system
to use GPS positioning.
In tunnels or enclosed parking garages
Under elevated roads or similar struc-
tures
When driving among high buildings
When driving through a dense forest or
tall trees
!If a car phone or cellular phone is used
near the GPS antenna, GPS reception may
be lost temporarily.
Appendix
En 193
Appendix
Appendix
![](asset-c2.png)
!Do not cover the GPS antenna with spray
paint or car wax, because this may block
the reception of GPS signals. Snow buildup
can also degrade the signals, so keep the
antenna clear.
pIf, for any reason, GPS signals cannot be re-
ceived, learning and error correction are
not possible. If GPS positioning has been
operating for only a short time, your vehi-
cle’s actual position and the current loca-
tion mark on the map may diverge
considerably. Once GPS reception is re-
stored, accuracy will be recovered.
Vehicles that Cannot
Obtain Speed Pulse Data
pThe speed pulse data comes from the
speed sensing circuit. The location of this
speed sensing circuit depends on your ve-
hicle model. In some cases, it is impossible
to make a connection to it, and in such a
case we recommend that ND-PG1 speed
pulse generator (sold separately) be
used.
Conditions Likely to Cause
Noticeable Positioning Errors
For various reasons such as the state of the
road you are traveling on and the state of re-
ception of the GPS signal, the actual position
of your vehicle may differ from the position
displayed on the map screen.
!If you make a shallow turn.
!If there is a parallel road.
!If there is another road very nearby, such
as in the case of an elevated freeway.
!If you take a recently opened road that is
not on the map.
Appendix

Appendix
![](asset-c3.png)
!If you drive in zig-zags.
!If the road has connected hairpin bends.
!If there is a loop or similar road configura-
tion.
!If you take a ferry.
!If you are driving on a long, straight road or
a gently curving road.
!If you are on a steep mountain road with
many height changes.
!If you enter or exit a multi-storey parking lot
or similar using a spiral ramp.
Appendix

!If your vehicle is turned on a turntable or si-
milar structure.
!If your vehicle’s wheels spin, such as on a
gravel road or in snow.
!If you put on chains, or change your tires
for ones with a different size.
!If trees or other obstacles block the GPS
signals for a considerable period.
!If you drive very slowly, or in a start-and-
stop manner, as in a traffic congestion.
!If you join the road after driving around a
large parking lot.
!When you pass around a traffic circle.
!When starting driving immediately after
starting the engine.
!If you turn your navigation system on while
driving.
Some types of vehicles may not output a
speed signal while driving at just a few kilo-
meters per hour. In such a case, the current lo-
cation of your vehicle may not be displayed
correctly while in a traffic congestion or in a
parking lot.

When the Hard Disk Drive is
Disconnected
If there is no hard disk drive because of repair
or service, you can operate only the Radio
source without the hard disk drive.
The following screen also may appear because
the hard disk drive can not run due to low tem-
perature. In such a case, park your vehicle in a
safe place and turn the ignition switch off.
After the temperature inside the vehicle re-
turns to normal, turn the ignition switch on.
Only the following operations are available.
Other functions cannot be operated.
!Only the FM and AM sources can be oper-
ated. (Preset station select cannot be oper-
ated.)
!If the selected source before ejecting the
hard disk drive is [AV], the [AV INPUT]
source is available on “Rear display”. (If the
selected source is [DVD], nothing is output
to “Rear display”. If the selected source is
[MIRROR], the same image as “Front dis-
play”is output to “Rear display”.)
!Rear view camera is available only when
the vehicle is backing up. ([Rear View]is
not available.)
Route Setting Information
Route search specifications
Your navigation system sets a route to your
destination by applying certain built-in rules to
the map data. This section provides some use-
ful information about how a route is set.
CAUTION
When a route is calculated, the route and voice
guidance for the route is automatically set. Also,
for day or time traffic regulations, only informa-
tion about traffic regulations at the time when the
route was calculated is shown. One-way streets
and street closures may not be taken into consid-
eration. 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.
!The calculated route is one example of the
route to your destination decided by the na-
vigation system whilst taking the type of
streets or traffic regulations into account. It
is not necessarily an optimum route. (In
some cases, you may not be able to set the
streets you want to pass. If you need to
pass a certain street, set the waypoint on
that street.)
!The route set by your navigation system
may not use the streets known to local dri-
vers, such as small streets or special roads.
!Some route options may become the same
route. If waypoints are set, only one route is
calculated.
!If the destination is too far, there may be in-
stances where the route cannot be set. (If
you want to set a long-distance route going
across several areas, set waypoints along
the way.)
!During voice guidance, turns and intersec-
tions from the freeway are announced.
However, if you pass intersections, turns,
and other guide points in rapid succession,
some may not be announced.
!It is possible that guidance may direct you
off a freeway and then back on again.
Appendix
En 197
Appendix
Appendix
![](asset-c6.png)
!In some cases, the route may require you
to travel in the opposite direction to your
current heading. In such cases, you are in-
structed to turn around, so please turn
around safely by following the actual traffic
rules.
!In some cases, guidance may direct you
past your destination and then indicate a
U-turn to get back to it.
!In some cases, a route may begin on the
opposite side of a railway or river from your
actual current location. If this happens,
drive towards your destination for a while,
and try route calculation again.
!When there is a traffic congestion or clo-
sure ahead, if driving through the traffic
congestion or closure is better than taking
the detour, a detour route may not appear.
!There may be instances when the starting
point and the destination point are not on
the highlighted route.
!The number of traffic circle exits displayed
on the screen may differ from the actual
number of roads.
Auto Reroute
!Auto Reroute is used when you deviate
more than 0.02 mile (Approx. 30 m) from
the route.
!The Auto Reroute function does not work in
the following cases:
—when your vehicle is not on a street
—when you are too close to your destina-
tion
—when your vehicle is on a ferry
—when driving on a road inside a facility
—when driving on a traffic circle
—when driving on the routes are de-
scribed in “Route highlighting”
!The system assumes the driver deviated
either intentionally or inadvertently from
the route and searches for another route
(intelligent rerouting). Depending on the si-
tuation, the system may search a new route
that does not return to the original one.
Route highlighting
!Once set, the route is highlighted in bright
green or light blue on the map.
!The immediate vicinity of your starting
point and destination may not be high-
lighted, and neither will areas with particu-
larly complex road layouts. Consequently,
the route may appear to be cut off on the
display, but voice guidance will continue.
Roads not used in calculations
Even though displayed on screen, the follow-
ing roads are not included in route calcula-
tions.
!Walkways
!Public vehicle only
!Non access road
=For details, refer to Viewing the Map Color Le-
gend on page 49
Tracking
!Your navigation system marks your course
on the map in certain increments. This is
called tracking. It is handy when you want
to check a route traveled without guidance
or if returning along a complex route.
!A maximum of about 155 miles (250 km) is
marked and, as you travel beyond this limit,
tracking marks are erased in order from the
most distant. Tracking display shows about
100 miles (160 km) tracking of your vehicle
with white dots.
=For more details about “Tracking can also
be set for automatic erasing whenever the na-
vigation system is switched off”, refer to Set-
ting the Item on the Map Screen on page 46

About playing DualDisc
!DualDiscs are two-sided discs that have a
recordable CD for audio on one side and a
recordable DVD for video on the other.
!Playback of the DVD side is possible with
this unit. However, since the CD side of
DualDiscs is not physically compatible with
the general CD standard, it may not be pos-
sible to play the CD side with this naviga-
tion system.
!Frequent loading and ejecting of a Dual-
Disc may result in scratches on the disc.
!Serious scratches can lead to playback pro-
blems on this navigation system. In some
cases, a DualDisc may become stuck in
the disc loading slot and will not eject. To
prevent this, we recommend you refrain
from using DualDisc with this navigation
system.
!Please refer to the manufacturer for more
detailed information about DualDiscs.
CD-R/CD-RW discs
!When CD-R/CD-RW discs are used, play-
back is possible only for discs that have
been finalized.
!It may not be possible to play back CD-R/
CD-RW discs recorded on a music CD re-
corder or a personal computer because of

MP3 files
!When naming an MP3 file, add the corre-
sponding filename extension (.mp3).
!This navigation system plays back files with
the filename extension (.mp3) as MP3 files.
To prevent noise and malfunctions, do not
use this extension for files other than MP3
files.
!MP3 is short for MPEG Audio Layer 3 and
refers to an audio compression technology
standard.
!This product allows playback of MP3 files
on CD-ROM, CD-R and CD-RW discs. Re-
corded discs can be played back if they are
compatible with level 1 and level 2 of
ISO9660 and with the Romeo and Joliet file
system.
!It is possible to play back multi-session
compatible recorded discs.
!MP3 files are not compatible with packet
write data transfer.
!The maximum number of characters for
the file and folder name is 32 characters,
including extension (.mp3). However the
navigation system uses proportional font.
Therefore, the number of the characters
that you can display varies according to the
width of each character.
!When playing discs with both MP3 files
and audio data (CD-DA), such as CD-
EXTRA and MIXED-MODE CDs, both types
can be played only by switching the mode
between MP3 and CD-DA.
!The folder selection sequence for playback
and other operations is the writing se-
quence used by the writing software. For
this reason, the expected sequence at the
time of playback may not coincide with the
actual playback sequence. However, there
also are some writing software that permit
the setting of the playback order.
!Some audio CDs contain tracks that merge
into one another without a pause. When
these discs are converted to MP3 files and
burned to a CD-R/CD-RW/CD-ROM, the
files will be played back on this player with
a short pause between each one, regard-
less of the length of the pause between
tracks on the original audio CD.
!Files are compatible with the ID3 Tag Ver.
1.0 and Ver. 1.1 formats for displaying
album (disc title), track (track title) and ar-
tist (track artist).
!The emphasis function is valid only when
MP3 files of 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz fre-
quencies are played back. (16 kHz,
22.05 kHz, 24 kHz, 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz
sampling frequencies can be played back.)
!There is no m3u playlist compatibility.
!There is no compatibility with the MP3i
(MP3 interactive) or MP3 PRO formats.
!The sound quality of MP3 files generally im-
proves with an increased bit rate. This pro-
duct can play recordings with bit rates
from 8 kbps to 320 kbps, but in order to be
able to enjoy sound of a certain quality, we
recommend only using discs recorded with
a bit rate of at least 128 kbps.
!Playing MP3 file on the DVD-R (-RW) is not
supported.
About folders and MP3 files
An outline of a CD-ROM with MP3 files on it is
shown below. Subfolders are shown as folders
in the folder currently selected.
pThe following figure is an example of the

Notes
!This product assigns folder numbers. The user
can not assign folder numbers.
!If you are using a folder that does not contain
an MP3 file, the folder itself will display but
you will not be able to see any files in the
folder.
!MP3 files in up to 8 tiers of folders can be
played back. However, there is a delay when
starting playback on discs with numerous
tiers. For this reason we recommend creating
discs with no more than 2 tiers.
!It is possible to play back up to 253 folders on
one disc.

The file name is in 8.3 format (the name con-
sists of up to 8 characters, half-byte English
capital letters, half-byte numerals and the “_”
sign, with a file-extension of three characters).
Level 2:
The file name can have up to 31 characters (in-
cluding the separation mark “.”and a file ex-
tension). Each folder contains less than 8
hierarchies.
Extended formats
Joliet:
File names can have up to 64 characters.
Romeo:
File names can have up to 128 characters.
Linear PCM (LPCM)/Pulse code
modulation
This stands for linear pulse code modulation,
which is the signal recording system used for
music CDs and DVDs. Generally, DVDs are re-
corded with higher sampling frequency and
bit rate than CDs. Therefore, DVDs can provide
higher sound quality.
m3u
Playlists created using the “WINAMP”soft-
ware have a playlist file extension (.m3u).
Menu
A list of options shown on the display; choices
are selected touching the display.
MP3
MP3 is short for MPEG Audio Layer 3. It is an
audio compression standard set by a working
group (MPEG) of the ISO (International Stan-
dards Organization). MP3 is able to compress
audio data to about 1/10th the size of a con-
ventional disc.
MPEG
This stands for Moving Pictures Experts
Group, and is an international video image
compression standard. Some DVDs feature di-
gital audio compressed and recorded using
this system.

Multi-angle
With regular TV programs, although multiple
cameras are used to simultaneously shoot
scenes, only images from one camera at a
time are transmitted to your TV. Some DVDs
feature scenes shot from multiple angles, let-
ting you choose your viewing angle as desired.
Multi-audio (Multilingual dialog)
Some DVDs feature dialog recorded in multi-
ple languages. Dialog in up to 8 languages
can be recorded on a single disc, letting you
choose as desired.
Multi-session
Multi-session is a recording method that al-
lows additional data to be recorded later.
When recording data on a CD-ROM, CD-R or
CD-RW, etc., all data from beginning to end is
treated as a single unit or session. Multi-ses-
sion is a method of recording more than 2 ses-
sions in one disc.
Multi-subtitle
Subtitles in up to 32 languages can be re-
corded on a single DVD, letting you choose as
desired.
Optical digital output
By transmitting audio signals in a digital sig-
nal format, the chance of sonic quality dete-
riorating in the course of transmission is
minimized. An optical digital output is de-
signed to transmit digital signals optically.
Packet write
This is a general term for a method of writing
on CD-R, etc. at the time required for a file,
just as is done with files on floppy or hard
discs.
Parental lock
Some DVD-Video discs with violent or adult-or-
iented scenes feature parental lock which pre-
vents children from viewing such scenes. With
this kind of disc, if you set the unit’s parental
lock level, playback of scenes inappropriate for
children will be disabled, or these scenes will
be skipped.
Point of Interest (POI)
Point Of Interest; any of a range of locations
stored in the data, such as railway stations,
shops, restaurants, and amusement parks.
Region number
DVD players and DVD discs feature region
numbers indicating the area in which they
were purchased. Playback of a DVD is not pos-
sible unless it features the same region num-
ber as the DVD player. The navigation system’s
region number is displayed on the bottom of
the navigation unit.
Route setting
The process of determining the ideal route to a
specific location; route setting is done auto-
matically by the system when you specify a
destination.
Set route
The route marked out by the system to your
destination. It is highlighted in bright green on
the map.
Title
DVD-Video discs have a high data capacity, en-
abling recording of multiple movies on a sin-
gle disc. If, for example, one disc contains
three separate movies, they are divided into
title 1, title 2 and title 3. This lets you enjoy the
convenience of title search and other func-
tions.
Tracking
Marks on the map indicating the route you
have traveled.
TV system (NTSC, PAL, SECAM)
Different areas of the world use different TV
systems. North America uses NTSC, Europe
uses PAL and SECAM, and South America
uses PAL-M, PAL-N, PAL and NTSC.

Almost all are incompatible with each other.
To display the video image, such as TV or DVD-
video correctly, you may need to coordinate
your system at the same TV system or use a
multi-system equipment.
VBR
VBR is short for variable bit rate. Generally
speaking CBR (constant bit rate) is more
widely used. But by flexibly adjusting the bit
rate according to the needs of audio compres-
sion, it is possible to achieve compression
priority sound quality.
Voice guidance
The giving of directions by a recorded voice
while in guidance mode.
Voice recognition
The technology that allows the system to un-
derstand the driver’s voice commands.
Waypoint
A location that you choose to visit before your
destination; a journey can be built up from
multiple way points and the destination.
