source code for the Application, including any
data and utility programs needed for reproducing the Combined Work from the Application,
but excluding the System Libraries of the Combined Work.

Introduction

You should have received a copy of the GNU
Lesser General Public License along with this
library; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA

1 Exception to Section 3 of the GNU GPL.
You may convey a covered work under sections 3 and 4 of this License without being
bound by section 3 of the GNU GPL.
2 Conveying Modified Versions.
If you modify a copy of the Library, and, in your
modifications, a facility refers to a function or
data to be supplied by an Application that
uses the facility (other than as an argument
passed when the facility is invoked), then you
may convey a copy of the modified version:
a under this License, provided that you make
a good faith effort to ensure that, in the
event an Application does not supply the
function or data, the facility still operates,
and performs whatever part of its purpose
remains meaningful, or
b under the GNU GPL, with none of the additional permissions of this License applicable to that copy.

Chapter

Introduction
3 Object Code Incorporating Material
from Library Header Files.
The object code form of an Application may incorporate material from a header file that is
part of the Library. You may convey such object code under terms of your choice, provided
that, if the incorporated material is not limited
to numerical parameters, data structure layouts and accessors, or small macros, inline
functions and templates (ten or fewer lines in
length), you do both of the following:
a Give prominent notice with each copy of
the object code that the Library is used in it
and that the Library and its use are covered
by this License.
b Accompany the object code with a copy of
the GNU GPL and this license document.

4 Combined Works.
You may convey a Combined Work under
terms of your choice that, taken together, effectively do not restrict modification of the portions of the Library contained in the Combined
Work and reverse engineering for debugging
such modifications, if you also do each of the
following:
a Give prominent notice with each copy of
the Combined Work that the Library is used
in it and that the Library and its use are covered by this License.
b Accompany the Combined Work with a
copy of the GNU GPL and this license document.
c For a Combined Work that displays copyright notices during execution, include the
copyright notice for the Library among
these notices, as well as a reference directing the user to the copies of the GNU GPL
and this license document.
d Do one of the following:
1 Convey the Minimal Corresponding
Source under the terms of this License,
and the Corresponding Application
Code in a form suitable for, and under
terms that permit, the user to recombine
or relink the Application with a modified
version of the Linked Version to produce

a modified Combined Work, in the manner specified by section 6 of the GNU
GPL for conveying Corresponding
Source.
2 Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (a) uses at
run time a copy of the Library already
present on the user's computer system,
and (b) will operate properly with a modified version of the Library that is interface-compatible with the Linked Version.
e Provide Installation Information, but only if
you would otherwise be required to provide
such information under section 6 of the
GNU GPL, and only to the extent that such
information is necessary to install and execute a modified version of the Combined
Work produced by recombining or relinking
the Application with a modified version of
the Linked Version. (If you use option 4d0,
the Installation Information must accompany the Minimal Corresponding Source
and Corresponding Application Code. If you
use option 4d1, you must provide the Installation Information in the manner specified
by section 6 of the GNU GPL for conveying
Corresponding Source.)

5 Combined Libraries.
You may place library facilities that are a work
based on the Library side by side in a single library together with other library facilities that
are not Applications and are not covered by
this License, and convey such a combined library under terms of yourchoice, if you do
both of the following:
a Accompany the combined library with a
copy of the same work based on the Library,
uncombined with any other library facilities,
conveyed under the terms of this License.
b Give prominent notice with the combined library that part of it is a work based on the
Library, and explaining where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same
work.

! When a route is calculated, the route and
voice guidance for the route are automatically
set. Also, for day or time traffic regulations,
only information 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 driving, please
follow the actual traffic signs. Also, the system
may not know some traffic regulations.

Additional Safety Information
Parking brake interlock
Certain functions (such as viewing of DVDVideo and certain touch key operations) offered by this navigation system could be dangerous and/or unlawful if used while driving.
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 parking brake.

WARNING
! LIGHT GREEN LEAD AT POWER CONNECTOR IS DESIGNED TO DETECT
PARKED STATUS AND MUST BE CONNECTED TO THE POWER SUPPLY SIDE
OF THE PARKING BRAKE SWITCH. IMPROPER CONNECTION OR USE OF
THIS LEAD MAY VIOLATE APPLICABLE
LAW AND MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DAMAGE.
! To avoid the risk of damage and injury and the
potential violation of applicable laws, the navigation 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 functions 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 impacted by such factors as GPS signal detection
and driving habits or conditions of the place
where the vehicle is parked.

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.

Appendix
Positioning technology
AVIC-X910BT accurately measures your current location by combining the positioning by
GPS and by “Dead Reckoning”.
AVIC-X710BT accurately measures your current location by the GPS positioning.

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 signals 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 signals 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 dimensions, 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 location 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-

186

pancies in the distance traveled caused by
driving along winding roads or up slopes.
If you use AVIC-X910BT with connecting the
speed pulse, the system will become more accurate than no connection of speed pulse. So
be sure to connect the speed pulse to get full
positioning accuracy.
p The position of the speed detection circuit
vary depending on the vehicle model. For
details, consult your authorized Pioneer
dealer or an installation professional.
p Some types of vehicles may not output a
speed signal while driving at just a few kilometers per hour. In such a case, the current
location of your vehicle may not be displayed correctly while in traffic congestion
or in a parking lot.

How do GPS and “Dead
Reckoning” work together?
For maximum accuracy, your navigation system 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 compounded until the estimated position becomes
unreliable. For this reason, whenever GPS signals are available, they are matched with the
data of the built-in sensor and used to correct
it for improved accuracy.
p If you use chains on your wheels for winter
driving or put on the spare wheel, errors
may suddenly increase because of difference in wheel diameter. In such case,
pressing the RESET button initialize the
sensor status and it may recover the accuracy to normal condition.

Appendix

Appendix
When positioning by GPS is
impossible
! GPS positioning is disabled if signals cannot 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 enclosed parking
garages

Appendix

Map matching
As mentioned, the positioning systems used
by this navigation system are susceptible to
certain errors. Their calculations may, on occasion, 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 adjusting it to a nearby road. This is called map
matching.

Under elevated
roads or similar
structures

With map matching

When driving
among high buildings

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 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.
p If 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 updated. In such case, once GPS reception is
restored, accuracy will be recovered.

187

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 displayed on the map screen.
! If you make a shallow turn.

! If you drive in zigzags.

! If the road has a series of hairpin bends.

! If there is a parallel road.
! If there is a loop or similar road configuration.

188

! If there is another road very nearby, such
as in the case of an elevated freeway.

! If you take a ferry.

! If you take a recently opened road that is
not on the map.

! If you are driving on a long, straight road or
a gently curving road.

Appendix

Appendix
! If trees or other obstacles block the GPS
signals for a considerable period.

! If you enter or exit a multi-storey parking lot
or similar structure using a spiral ramp.

! If you drive very slowly, or in a start-andstop manner, as in a traffic congestion.

! If your vehicle is turned on a turntable or similar structure.

! If you join the road after driving around a
large parking lot.

! If your vehicle’s wheels spin, such as on a
gravel road or in snow.

Appendix

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 useful information about how a route is set.

189

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 information 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 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 navigation 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 instances 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 intersections from the freeway are announced.
However, if you pass intersections, turns,
and other guidance points in rapid succession, 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 instructed 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,

190

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 driving 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 highlighted, and neither will areas with particularly 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 destination.
! This function may not work under certain
conditions.
