If the microphone is placed in an unsuitable  
position the measurement tone may become  
loud and measurement may take a long time,  
resulting in battery drainage. Be sure to place  
the microphone in the specified location.

remove them from the car before carrying  
out auto EQ. Sounds other than the mea-  
surement tone (surrounding sounds, en-  
gine sound, telephones ringing etc.) may  
prevent correct measurement of the car in-  
terior acoustic characteristics.  
Performing auto EQ  
Stop the car in a place that is quiet,  
close all the doors, windows and sun roof,

performing auto EQ. Also set the cut-off fre-  
quency for the built-in LPF of an active sub-  
woofer to the highest frequency.

The black cable is ground. When installing  
this unit or power amp (sold separately), make  
sure to connect the ground wire first. Make  
sure that the ground cable is properly con-  
nected to metal parts of the car body using a  
spade terminal sold commercially. The ground  
wire of the power amp and the one of this unit  
or any other device must be connected to the  
car separately with different screws. If the  
screw for the ground wire loosens or falls out,  
it could result in fire, generation of smoke or  
malfunction.  
CAUTION  
!
PIONEER does not recommend that you in-  
stall or service your display unit yourself. In-  
stalling or servicing the product may expose  
you to risk of electric shock or other hazards.  
Refer all installation and servicing of your dis-  
play unit to authorized Pioneer service person-  
nel.

!
Secure all wiring with cable clamps or electri-  
cal tape. Do not allow any bare wiring to re-  
main exposed.  
Do not drill a hole into the engine compart-  
ment to connect the yellow cable of the dis-  
play unit to the vehicle battery. Engine  
vibration may eventually cause the insulation  
to fail at the point where the wire passes from  
the passenger compartment into the engine  
compartment. Take extra care in securing the  
wire at this point.

To ensure proper operation, connect the dock connec-  
tor cable from the iPod directly to this unit.  
DualDiscs are two-sided discs that have a recordable  
CD for audio on one side and a recordable DVD for  
video on the other.  
Firmly secure the iPod when driving. Do not let the  
iPod fall onto the floor, where it may become jammed  
under the brake or accelerator pedal.  
Playback of the DVD side is possible with this unit.  
However, since the CD side of DualDiscs is not physi-  
cally compatible with the general CD standard, it may  
not be possible to play the CD side with this unit.  
Frequent loading and ejecting of a DualDisc may re-  
sult in scratches on the disc. Serious scratches can  
lead to playback problems on this unit. In some  
cases, a DualDisc may become stuck in the disc load-  
ing slot and will not eject. To prevent this, we recom-  
mend you refrain from using DualDisc with this unit.  
Please refer to the information from the disc manu-  
facturer for more detailed information about  
DualDiscs.
