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

operating. (Some operations are not available.)

The basic steps of voice operations are as fol-

lows.

1 Switch the screen to map screen or AV

operation screen.

2 Press the VOICE button to activate

voice operations.

3 Speak a command into the microphone

after the beep.

4 When the command is recognized, the

navigation system displays next options on

the screen, and pronounces it in some

cases.

5 Repeat previous step as necessary.

6 The requested operation will be carried

out.

pThe voice operation may not be operable for a

minute after the navigation system has booted

up.

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 with the navigation screen

Symptom Cause Action (Reference)

The power doesn’t turn on. The

navigation system doesn’t oper-

ate.

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 rating.

Noise and other factors are causing

the built-in microprocessor to oper-

ate incorrectly.

Park your vehicle in a safe place, and turn off

the engine. Turn the ignition key back to “Acc

off”. Then start the engine again, and turn the

power to the navigation system back on.

You cannot position your vehicle

on the map without a significant

positioning error.

The quality of signals from the GPS

satellites is poor, causing reduced

positioning accuracy. Such a loss of

signal quality may occur for the fol-

lowing 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 inadequate.

—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.

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.

Something covers the GPS antenna. Do not cover the GPS antenna with spray

paint or vehicle wax, because this may block

the reception of GPS signals. Snow buildup

can also degrade the signals.

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.

Positioning technology

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

21 000 km, continually broadcasts radio sig-

nals giving time and position information. This

ensures that signals from at least three can be

picked up from any open area on the earth’s

surface.

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 built-in 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 built-in 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.

If you use this navigation system with connect-

ing the speed pulse, the system will become

more accurate than no connection of speed

pulse. So you connect the speed pulse without

fail to get the accuracy of positioning.

pThe position of the speed detection circuit

vary depending on the vehicle model. For

details, consult your authorized Pioneer

dealer or an installation professional.

pSome 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

location of your vehicle may not be dis-

played correctly while in traffic congestion

or in a parking lot.

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 built-in sensor. However, if only the data

from the built-in sensor is available for a long

period, positioning errors are gradually com-

pounded until the estimated position becomes

unreliable. For this reason, whenever GPS sig-

nals are available, they are matched with the

data of the built-in sensor and used to correct

it for improved accuracy.

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. In such case,

pressing the RESET button initialize the

sensor status and it may recover the accu-

racy to normal condition.

Appendix

En 183

Appendix

Map matching

As mentioned, the positioning systems used

by this navigation system are susceptible to

certain errors. Their calculations may, on occa-

sion, place you in a location on the map where

no road exists. In this situation, the processing

system understands that vehicles travel only

on roads, and can correct your position by ad-

justing 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 positioning by GPS is

impossible

!GPS positioning is disabled if signals can-

not be received from more than two GPS

satellites.

!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 en-

closed parking

garages

Under elevated

roads or similar

structures

When driving

among high build-

ings

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.

!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 a GPS signal have not been received for a

long time, your vehicle’s actual position

and the current position mark on the map

may diverge considerably or may not be up-

dated. In such case, once GPS reception is

restored, accuracy will be recovered.

Appendix

Appendix

Conditions likely to cause

noticeable positioning errors

For various reasons, such as the state of the

road you are traveling on and the reception

status of the GPS signal, the actual position of

your vehicle may differ from the position dis-

played 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.

!If you drive in zigzags.

!If the road has a series of 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.

Appendix

En 185

Appendix

!If you are on a steep mountain road with

many height changes.

!If you enter or exit a multi-storey parking lot

or similar structure using a spiral ramp.

!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 drive around a traffic circle.

!When starting driving immediately after

starting the engine.

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.

Appendix

186

Appendix

CAUTION

When a route is calculated, the route and voice

guidance for the route are automatically set.

Also, for day or time traffic regulations, only infor-

mation about traffic regulations applicable at the

time when the route was calculated is shown.

One-way streets and street closures may not be

taken into consideration. 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 driv-

ing, please follow the actual traffic signs. Also,

the system may not know some traffic regula-

tions.

!The calculated route is one example of the

route to your destination decided by the na-

vigation system while 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 take. If you need to take

a certain street, set a waypoint on that

street.)

!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 guidance points in rapid succes-

sion, some may delay or not be announced.

!It is possible that guidance may direct you

off a freeway and then back on again.

!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, 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 ahead, a

detour route may not be suggested if driv-

ing through the traffic congestion would

still be better than taking the detour.

!There may be instances when the starting

point, the waypoint 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.

Route highlighting

!Once set, the route is highlighted in bright

color 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.

Auto reroute function

!If you deviate from the set route, the system

will re-calculate the route from that point

so that you remain on track to the destina-

tion.

!This function may not work under certain

conditions.

may damage it.

!Do not push the LCD screen with excessive

force as this may scratch it.

!Never touch the LCD screen with anything

besides your finger when operating the

Touch panel functions. The LCD screen can

scratch easily.

Liquid crystal display (LCD) screen

!If the LCD screen is near the vent of an air

conditioner, make sure that air from the air

conditioner is not blowing on it. Heat from

the heater may break the LCD screen, and

cool air from the cooler may cause moist-

ure to form inside the navigation unit, re-

sulting in possible damage.

!Small black dots or white dots (bright dots)

may appear on the LCD screen. These are

due to the characteristics of the LCD

screen and do not indicate a malfunction.

!The LCD screen will be difficult to see if it is

exposed to direct sunlight.

!When using a cellular phone, keep the an-

tenna of the cellular phone away from the

LCD screen to prevent disruption of the

video in the form of disturbances such as

spots or colored stripes.

Maintaining the LCD screen

!When removing dust from the LCD screen

or cleaning it, first turn the system power

off, then wipe with a soft dry cloth.

!When wiping the LCD screen, take care not

to scratch the surface. Do not use harsh or

abrasive chemical cleaners.

LED (light-emitting diode)

backlight

A light emitting diode is used inside the dis-

play to illuminate the LCD screen.

!At low temperatures, using the LED back-

light may increase image lag and degrade

the image quality because of the character-

istics of the LCD screen. Image quality will

improve with an increase in temperature.

!The product lifetime of the LED backlight is

more than 10 000 hours. However, it may

decrease if used in high temperatures.

Glossary

AAC

AAC is short for Advanced Audio Coding and

refers to an audio compression technology

standard used with MPEG-2 and MPEG-4.

Aspect ratio

This is the width-to-height ratio of a TV screen.

A regular display has an aspect ratio of 4:3.

Wide screen displays have an aspect ratio of

16:9, providing a bigger picture for exceptional

presence and atmosphere.

Bit rate

This expresses data volume per second, or bps

units (bits per second). The higher the rate,

the more information is available to reproduce

the sound. Using the same encoding method

(such as MP3), the higher the rate, the better

the sound.

Built-in sensor

The built-in sensor that enables the system to

estimate your vehicle’s position.

CD-DA

This stands for a general music CD (commer-

cial-release audio CD). In this manual, this

word is sometime used for a distinction be-

tween data CDs (which include compressed

audio files) and general music CDs.

Chapter

Titles of DVD-Video or DVD-VR are in turn di-

vided into chapters which are numbered in

the same way as the chapters of a book. With

discs featuring chapters, you can quickly find

a desired scene with chapter search.

Current location

The present location of your vehicle; your cur-

rent location is shown on the map by a red tri-

angle mark.

Destination

A location you choose as the end point of your

journey.

DivX

DivX is a popular media technology created by

DivX, Inc. DivX media files contain highly com-

pressed video with high visual quality that

maintains a relatively small file size. DivX files

can also include advanced media features like

menus, subtitles, and alternate audio tracks.

Many DivX media files are available for down-

load online, and you can create your own

using your personal content and easy-to-use

tools from DivX.com.

DivX Certified

DivX Certified products are officially tested by

the creators of DivX and guaranteed to play all

versions of DivX video, including DivX 6.

Favorites

A frequently visited location (such as your

workplace or a relative’s home) that you can

GPS

Global Positioning System. A network of satel-

lites that provides navigation signals for a vari-

ety of purposes.

Guidance mode

The mode in which guidance is given as you

drive to your destination; the system automati-

cally switches to this mode as soon as a route

has been set.

Guidance point

These are important landmarks along your

route, generally intersections. The next gui-

dance point along your route is indicated on

the map by the yellow flag icon.

Home location

Your registered home location.

ID3 tag

This is a method of embedding track-related

information in an MP3 file. This embedded in-

formation can include the track title, the ar-

tist’s name, the album title, the music genre,

the year of production, comments and other

data. The contents can be freely edited using

software with ID3 Tag editing functions.

Although the tags are restricted by the num-

ber of characters, the information can be

viewed when the track is played back.

ISO9660 format

This is the international standard for the for-

mat logic of DVD/CD-ROM folders and files.

For the ISO9660 format, there are regulations

for the following two levels:

Level 1:

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.

!Level 1:

The file name is in 8.3 format (the name

consists 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

(including the separation mark “.”and a file

extension). 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.

JPEG

This stands for Joint Photographic Experts

Group, and is an international still image com-

pression standard.

MP3

MP3 is short for MPEG Audio Layer 3. It is an

audio compression standard established by a

working group (MPEG) of the ISO (Interna-

tional Standards Organization). MP3 is able to

compress audio data to about 1/10th the size

of a conventional disc.

MPEG

This stands for Moving Pictures Experts

Group, and is an international video image

compression standard.

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 videos feature dialog recorded in multi-

ple languages or audio recorded in multiple

tracks. For example, dialog in up to 8 lan-

guages can be recorded on a single DVD-Vi-

deo, letting you choose the language 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

For example, subtitles in up to 32 languages

can be recorded on a single DVD-Video, letting

you choose as desired.

Packet write

This is a general term for a method of writing

individual files to a CD-R, etc. whenever re-

quired, just as is done with files on floppy or

hard disks.

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.

Phone book

An address book on user’s phone is collec-

tively referred to as “Phone book”. Depending

on the cellular phone, the “Phone book”may

be called a name such as “Contacts”,“Busi-

ness card”or something else.

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.

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 color on

the map.

Title

DVD-Video or DVD-VR discs have a high data

capacity, enabling recording of multiple videos

on a single disc. If, for example, one disc con-

tains three separate videos, they are divided

into title 1, title 2 and title 3. This lets you enjoy

the convenience of title search and other func-

tions.

Track log

Your navigation system logs routes that you al-

ready passed through if the track logger is ac-

tivated. This recorded route is called a “track

log”. It is handy when you want to check a

route traveled or if returning along a complex

route.

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 navigation voice

while in guidance.

Waypoint

A location that you choose to visit before your

destination; a journey can be built up from

multiple waypoints and the destination.

WMA

WMA is short for Windows Media™Audio

and refers to an audio compression technol-

ogy that is developed by Microsoft

Corporation.
