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. 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 GPS antenna is in an unsuitable
location.
The quality of signals from the GPS satellites
is poor, causing reduced positioning accu-
racy. Check the GPS signal reception and the
position of the GPS antenna if necessary.
Obstacles are blocking signals from
the satellites.
The quality of signals from the GPS satellites
is poor, causing reduced positioning accu-
racy. Check the GPS signal reception and the
position of the GPS antenna if necessary, or
continue driving until reception improves.
Keep the antenna clear.
The position of satellites relative to
your vehicle is inadequate.
The quality of signals from the GPS satellites
is poor, causing reduced positioning accu-
racy. Continue driving until reception im-
proves.
Signals from the GPS satellites have
been modified to reduce accuracy.
(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.)
The quality of signals from the GPS satellites
is poor, causing reduced positioning accu-
racy. Wait until reception improves.
If a vehicle phone or cellular phone
is used near the GPS antenna, GPS
reception may be lost temporarily.
The quality of signals from the GPS satellites
is poor, causing reduced positioning accu-
racy. When using a cellular phone, keep the
antenna of the cellular phone away from the
GPS antenna.

Symptom Cause Action (Reference)
You cannot position your vehicle
on the map without a significant
positioning error.
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.
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.
The navigation system is installed
with an extreme angle exceeding
the installation angle limitations.
Confirm the installation angle. (The naviga-
tion system must be installed within the al-
lowed installation angle. For details, refer to
Installation Manual.)
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 (violet) is connected properly. (The
navigation system works properly without the
lead connected, but positioning accuracy will
be adversely affected.)
“Eco Graph”is not available. The navigation system is unable to
obtain past average fuel mileage
data, so “Eco Graph”cannot be dis-
played.
Drive about 6 miles (10 km) on a road without
obstructions. Then park your vehicle in a safe
place, turn off the navigation system and turn
the power to the navigation system back on.
The map color does not switch
automatically between daytime
and nighttime.
“Day/Night Display”is set to
“Day”.

the volume.
Turn the volume up or down using [Volume]
on the “System Settings”menu. (Page 163)
The person on the other end of
the phone call cannot hear the
conversation due to an echo.
The voice from the person on the
other end of the phone call is output
from the speakers and then picked
up by the microphone again, creat-
ing an echo.
Use the following methods to reduce the
echo:
—Lower the volume on the receiver
—Have both parties pause slightly before
speaking

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 gyro sensor and inclination of the
road with the G sensor.
The built-in sensor can even calculate
changes of altitude, and correct the discrepan-
cies 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. Initialize the sensor
status and it may recover the accuracy to
normal condition.
=For details, refer to Clearing status on
page 149.

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 has 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.
