Introduction
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your
musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement
your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer
Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level.
One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion—
and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of
sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard
against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
• Start your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distor-
tion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
• Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After
all, we want you listening for a lifetime.
We Want You Listening For A Lifetime
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since
hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and
the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid pro-
longed exposure to excessive noise. This list of sound levels is included for your protection.

■An example of voice operation
When using the voice command, it is important to get the timing correct. Before speaking,
you must first wait for the “Please request command” message. After the message is played, a
Beep tone indicates that it is now your turn to speak, and the mark showing that you can
speak is displayed.
In this example, you want to search for the nearest gas station. When presented with a list of
search options, you say the number to the left of the option you want to select.

Press theTALK button.
A list of commands for voice operation appears. After the “Please request command”
message, the beep indicates that the system is ready to accept your voice command. You
say a command after this beep.
➲ If no command is made in the next 6 seconds, voice recognition is canceled and the
Navigation System is on hold until the next operation. Press the TALK button to reacti-
vate voice operation.

Say“POI in vicinity”.
You say the contents you want to operate. Here, selection method of your destination is
specified. When you want to search the gas station nearest to the current location, say
“POI in vicinity”. When you speak the command, the Navigation System displays the
command it recognized and the system voice repeats it.
➲ If a command that you did not intend is recognized, press the TALK button or say “Next
Option”. Other available commands are then shown. If you then press the TALK button

Tips for Voice Operation
For your voice commands to be correctly recognized and interpreted, ensure that conditions are
suitable for recognition.
Reduce the volume setting on your car audio system
The voice recognition system may have problems distinguishing your voice commands from
background noise. Turn down your audio system: remember that voices on the radio might be
interpreted as commands.
➲ If you have a Pioneer AV Head Unit (except AVH-P6400CD and AVH-P6400) with a muting
function (one that has an Yellow/black lead), the volume will automatically be reduced
when you give a voice command (see “Voice Recognition Mute” on page 103).
Close the car windows
Just as your audio system may interfere with voice operation, so can wind noise caused by
open windows and sounds entering from outside. If you have problems with voice recogni-
tion, try closing the car windows.
Position the microphone carefully
For optimum pick-up, the microphone should be fixed at a suitable distance directly in front
of the driver. Make sure that you do not need to alter your position or look away from the road
ahead when giving voice commands; not only is this awkward, but it can also compromise
driving safety. Bear this in mind when choosing where to attach the microphone.
Pause before giving a command
After pressing the TALK button on the Remote Control, pause for a moment after the confir-
mation beep before giving your command. Speaking too soon may cause the recognition to
fail. If you still experience recognition problems, leave a slightly longer pause before giving a
command.
Pronounce your commands carefully
Speak slowly, deliberately and clearly. Fast or mumbled commands are easily misinterpreted.
If the microphone is properly positioned, there is no need to raise your voice when giving
commands.

Positioning Technology
The Navigation System accurately measures your current location by combining the positioning 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 satel-
lites, which orbit at a height of xxxfeet (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 3D Hybrid Sensor in the main unit also calculates your position. The current location is measured by
detecting driving distance with the speed pulse, the turning direction with the Gyrosensor, and inclina-
tion of the road with the G sensor.
The 3D Hybrid Sensor can even calculate changes of altitude, and corrects for discrepancies in the dis-
tance travelled caused by driving along winding roads or up slopes. Also, the Navigation System learns
the driving conditions and stores information in the memory; 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 car is
detected or not:
3D hybrid mode
This is active when the speed pulse is detected. Inclination of a street can be detected.
Simple hybrid mode
When the speed pulse is not detected, positioning is performed in this mode. Only horizontal movement
is detected, so it becomes less accurate. Also, when the positioning by GPS is not available, such as when
your car enters a long tunnel, the discrepancy between your actual and calculated position may become
bigger.
➲ The speed pulse data comes from the speed sensing circuit. The location of this speed
sensing circuit depends on your car model. In some cases, it is impossible to make a con-
nection to it, and in such a case we recommend that the ND-PG1 speed pulse generator
(sold separately) be used.

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 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 becomes 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 reckoning system learns with experience. By comparing 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 car. As you drive, the dead reckoning system grad-
ually 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.
➲ If you use chains on your wheels for winter driving, or if you put on the spare wheel, the
errors may appear to suddenly increase because of the increased wheel diameter. To pre-
vent the contamination of previously acquired learning data, learning automatically stops
when such errors suddenly appear.
➲ There are two learning memories, so the Navigation System can learn about and compen-
sate for two different tire sets, such as summer and winter tires (see “Checking sensor
learning status and driving status” on page 95 for details).
Map matching
As mentioned, the GPS and dead reckoning 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 cars travel only on roads, and can correct
your position by adjusting it to a nearby road. This is called map matching.

Handling Large Errors
Positioning errors are kept to a minimum by combining GPS, Dead Reckoning, and map matching. How-
ever, 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 car. In this case, it is
impossible for the system to use GPS positioning.
In tunnels or enclosed parking garages
Under elevated roads or similar
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 aerial, GPS reception may be lost temporarily.
Do not cover the GPS aerial 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 aerial clear.
➲ If, for any reason, GPS signals cannot be received, learning and error correction are not
possible. If GPS positioning has been operating for only a short time, your car’s actual
position and the current location mark on the map may diverge considerably. Once GPS
reception is restored, accuracy will be recovered.

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 comprehensive, 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.
You cannot position your car on the map or the positioning error is large.
Possible causes:
(1) 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 aerial is in an unsuitable location.
The position of satellites relative to your car is bad.
Signals from the GPS satellites have been modified to reduce accuracy. (GPS satellites are oper-
ated by the US Department of Defense, and the US government reserves the right to distort posi-
tioning data for military reasons. This may lead to greater positioning errors.)
(2) Signals from the car’s speed pulse are not being picked up properly.
(3) The main unit may not be mounted securely in your car.
(4) Your car is operating in Simple hybrid mode (see “Positioning by dead reckoning” on page 173).
(5) Setting of Installation direction lever is wrong.
(6) Main unit is installed with extreme angle exceeding the limitation of the installation angle.
(7) Indication of the position of your car is misaligned after a U-turn or reversing.
Solutions:
(1) Check the GPS signal reception using “GPS Status” (see “Checking positioning information by sat-
ellite” on page 94) and the position of the GPS aerial if necessary, or continue driving until reception
improves.
(2) Check that the cables are properly connected. If necessary, consult the dealer that installed the sys-
tem.
(3) Check that the main unit is securely mounted and, if necessary, consult the dealer that installed the
system.
(4) Connect the speed signal input (pink lead wire) of the power wire correctly, and reset the 3D Hybrid
Sensor.
Installation direction lever (see the “Installation Manual”).
(6) Confirm the installation angle. (This unit must be installed within +30 degrees to -15 degrees of the
horizontal, or within five degrees of your car’s direction of travel.)
(7) Check whether or not the reverse gear signal input lead (purple) is connected properly. (The Naviga-
tion System works properly without the lead connected, but positioning accuracy will be adversely
affected.)
The map continually reorients itself.
Possible causes:
The display is set to “Heading Up”.
Solutions:
Check the “Map Orientation” settings (see “Map Orientation” on page 102) and change the setting to
“North Up”.
Tracking marks are not displayed.
Possible causes:
The “Tracking Display” is turned off.
Solutions:
Check the “Tracking Display” settings (see “Tracking Display” on page 102) and make sure “On

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.
Caution
When a route is calculated, the route and voice guidance for the route is auto-
matically set. Also, for day or time traffic regulations, only information about
traffic regulations at the time when the route was calculated is shown. 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
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 want to pass a cer-
tain street, set the way point on that street.)
•
The route set by your Navigation System is based on the assumption that the driver does not know the
area. Thus, the streets known to local drivers, such as small streets or special roads, may not be used
for the set route.
•
•
Some route options may become the same route. If visiting points are set, only one route is calculated.
Route setting is limited to the range of the disc in use. Additionally, 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 way points along the way.)
•
During voice guidance, turns and junctions from freeway are announced. However, if you pass junc-
tions, turns, and other guide points in rapid succession, some may not be announced.
Incorrect guidance may be given at freeway junctions if the exit lane is particularly long.
It is possible that guidance may direct you off a freeway and then back on again.
In some cases, the set 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, 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.
In the following cases, the route that passes through an Area to Avoid may be set:
- when your car is in the Area to Avoid
- when your destination or way points are in the Area to Avoid
- when it is not possible to avoid doing so
•
•
If a suitable route cannot be set in compliance with the specified “Detour” parameter or your prefer-
ence to avoid freeways, toll roads, or a ferry route, the setting or parameter may be ignored.
When there is a traffic jam ahead, if driving through the traffic jam is better than taking the detour, a
detour route may not be set.
•
•
If your destination is a freeway junction, voice guidance may not announce the junction.
There may be instances when the starting point and the destination point are not on the highlighted
route.
•
•
The number of roundabout exits displayed on the screen may differ from the actual number of roads.
“Auto Reroute” function does not work in the following cases:
- when your car is not on a street
- when your car is on a ferry
- when driving on a road inside a facility
- when driving on a roundabout

■Route highlighting
•
Once set, the route is highlighted in bright green 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.
•
The route may not be highlighted as far as the checkered flag showing your destination, depending on
the place set as your destination.
■Intersection enlargement
•
When “Close-up of Intersection” is on, the map scale increases to show more detail as you approach
an intersection.
•
If the intersection is approached in a gentle curve, the map displayed may differ from the actual road
layout.
■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 travelled without guidance or if returning along a complex
route.
•
A maximum of about 125 miles (200 km) is marked and, as you travel beyond this limit, tracking
marks are erased in order from the most distant. Tracking can also be set for automatic erasing when-
ever the Navigation System is switched off (see “Tracking Display” on page 102).
■About traffic information
•
•
Because the information is updated only periodically, it may take time to collect all the information.
Traffic information is not taken into account in calculating estimated time of arrival time or travel time
for your destination.
•
This product may not be able to receive traffic information in some areas.
•
•
Pioneer does not bear responsibility for the accuracy of the information transmitted.
Pioneer does not bear responsibility for changes to information services provided by broadcast-
ing stations or by related companies, such as cancellation of the services or changing to pay-
services. Also, we do not accept return of the product for this reason.

Map Database :
The entire United States (excluding Alaska and Hawaii) and portions of Canada are contained in one
disc. The United States map database includes the interstate freeways, state highways, country roads,
major and general streets. The Canadian map database includes some of the highways, country roads,
major and general streets. The Canadian map may show a higher level of detail in large populated areas
than in less populated areas.
Detailed Areas :
The detailed areas are primarily located around metropolitan centers. All of the roads and the road net-
work attributes are contained in the map database for these detailed areas. Road network attributes
include information such as street names, street address, turn restrictions, etc. A detailed area will
include all major highways, service roads, and residential roads. The detailed areas include points of
interest (POI). The map database may not include data for newly constructed areas or map database cor-
rections that are completed after the production of the disc. The Navigation System will provide full
route guidance in the detailed map areas.

Limited Guidance Areas :
These areas exist in the United States map database only. Any area that is not included in the detailed
area list is a limited guidance area. These areas include the road maps but may not contain complete road
network attribute information. Road network attributes include information such as street names, street
address, turn restrictions, etc. Complete road network attribute information is needed to provide full
route guidance. Due to the incomplete road network attributes, route guidance is available only on some
of the major roads in the limited guidance areas. The surrounding streets will be displayed on the map
display but route guidance may not be given on these streets. The navigation system will inform you
when you are travelling into a limited guidance area where route guidance will not be available. The
street maps displayed on the navigation system can then be used to determine the remaining route to your
destination.
Non-detailed Areas :
These areas exist in the Canadian map database only. Any area that is not included in the detailed area list
is a non-detailed area. Some of the major roads are available in the non-detailed areas and may be
selected through the intersection and the freeway entrance/exit route planning options. The city center
category is available in the all point of interest planning option. Residential roads, service roads, points
of interest (except city center) and street addresses are not included in the non-detailed map areas.
