Before Using This Product  
To Avoid Battery Exhaustion  
Always run the vehicle engine while using this unit. Using this unit without running the  
engine can result in battery drainage.  
To Protect the LCD Screen of the Display  
• Do not allow direct sunlight to fall on the Display when this unit is not being used.  
Extended exposure to direct sunlight can result in LCD screen malfunction due to the  
resulting high temperatures.  
• When using a portable phone, keep the antenna of the portable phone away from the  
Display to prevent disruption of the video by the appearance of spots, colored stripes,  
etc.  
When Viewing is Difficult, use [BRIGHTNESS] and [DIMMER] to Adjust  
Due to its construction, the view angle of the LCD screen is limited. The viewing angle  
(vertical and horizontal) can be increased, however, by using [BRIGHTNESS] to adjust  
the black density of the video. When using for the first time, adjust the black density in  
accordance with the viewing angle (vertical and horizontal) to adjust for clear viewing.  
[DIMMER] can also be used to adjust the brightness of the LCD screen itself to suit your  
personal preference.

Using the Display Correctly  
CAUTION  
• If moisture or foreign matter should get inside the unit, turn OFF the power  
immediately and consult your dealer or the nearest authorized PIONEER  
service facility. Using the unit in this condition may result in a fire, electric  
shock or other failure.  
• If you notice smoke, a strange noise or smell, or any other abnormal signs  
from the display, turn OFF the power immediately and consult your dealer  
or the nearest authorized PIONEER service facility. Using the unit in this  
condition may result in failure of the system.  
• Do not remove the rear cover of the display, as there are high-voltage com-  
ponents inside which may cause an electric shock. Be sure to consult your  
dealer or the nearest authorized PIONEER service facility for internal  
inspection, adjustments or repairs.  
Handling the Display  
• When the display is not being used, never leave it under the direct sunlight or in extreme  
temperatures.  
• The display should be used within the temperature ranges shown below.  
Operating temperature range: –10 to +50 °C  
Storage temperature range:  
–20 to +80 °C  
At temperatures higher or lower than the operating temperature range, the display may  
not operate normally.  
• The LCD screen of this product is exposed to improve view ability in the vehicle. Do not  
push the LCD screen strongly. This could break it.  
• Do not touch the LCD screen. This could cause scratches or soiling.

About the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) Screen  
• If the display is near the vent of an air conditioner when it is deployed, 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 moisture to form inside the display  
resulting in possible damage. Also, if the display is cooled down by the cooler, the  
screen may become dark, or the life span of the small fluorescent tube used inside the  
display may be shortened.  
• 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 problem with the dis-  
play.  
• At low temperatures, the LCD screen may be dark for a while after the power is turned  
ON.  
• The LCD screen will be difficult to see if it is exposed to direct sunlight.  
Keeping the Display in Good Condition  
• When removing dust from the screen or cleaning the display, first turn the system power  
OFF, then wipe with a soft dry cloth.  
• When wiping the screen, take care not to scratch the surface. Do not use harsh or abra-  
sive chemical cleaners.  
• Do not use a wet cloth for cleaning. Do not use organic solvents, such as benzine, thin-  
ner.  
About the Small Fluorescent Tube  
• A small fluorescent tube is used inside the display to illuminate the LCD screen.  
* The fluorescent tube is an expendable part and has a limited service life.  
* The fluorescent tube should last for approximately 10,000 hours, depending on oper-  
ating conditions. (Using the display at low temperatures reduces the service life of the  
fluorescent tube.)  
* When the fluorescent tube reaches the end of its useful life, the screen will be dark  
and the image will no longer be projected. If this happens, consult your dealer or the  
nearest authorized PIONEER service facility.

Connecting the System  
CAUTION  
• PIONEER does not recommend that you install or service your display your-  
self. Installing or servicing the product may expose you to risk of electric  
shock or other hazards. Refer all installation and servicing of your display to  
authorized Pioneer service personnel.  
• Secure all wiring with cable clamps or electrical tape. Do not allow any bare  
wiring to remain exposed.  
• Do not drill a hole into the engine compartment to connect the yellow lead of  
the unit to the vehicle battery. Engine vibration may eventually cause the  
insulation to fail at the point where the wire passes from the passenger com-  
partment into the engine compartment. Take extra care in securing the wire  
at this point.  
• It is extremely dangerous to allow the display lead to become wound around  
the steering column or gearshift. Be sure to install the display in such a way  
that it will not obstruct driving.  
• Make sure that wires will not interfere with moving parts of the vehicle, such  
as the gearshift, parking brake or seat sliding mechanism.  
• Do not shorten any leads. If you do, the protection circuit may fail to work  
properly.

Note:  
This unit is for vehicles with a 12-volt battery  
If this unit is installed in a vehicle that does not  
have an ACC (accessory) position on the ignition  
switch, the red lead of the unit should be con-  
nected to a terminal coupled with ignition switch  
ON/OFF operations. If this is not done, the vehi-  
cle battery may be drained when you are away  
from the vehicle for several hours.  
and negative grounding. Before installing it in a  
recreational vehicle, truck, or bus, check the bat-  
tery voltage.  
To avoid shorts in the electrical system, be sure  
to disconnect the battery cable before begin-  
ning installation.  
Refer to the owner’s manual for details on con-  
necting other units, then make connections cor-  
rectly.  
Secure the wiring with cable clamps or adhesive  
tape. To protect the wiring, wrap adhesive tape  
around them where they lie against metal parts.  
Route and secure all wiring so it cannot touch  
any moving parts, such as the gear shift, hand-  
brake and seat rails. Do not route wiring in  
places that get hot, such as near the heater outlet.  
If the insulation of the wiring melts or gets torn,  
there is a danger of the wiring short-circuiting to  
the vehicle body.  
ACC position  
No ACC position  
CAUTION  
Cords for this product and those for  
other products may be different colors  
even if they have the same function.  
When connecting this product to  
another product, refer to the supplied  
Installation manuals of both products  
and connect cords that have the same  
function.  
Don’t pass the yellow lead through a hole into  
the engine compartment to connect to the battery.  
This will damage the lead insulation and cause a  
very dangerous short.  
Do not shorten any leads. If you do, the protec-  
tion circuit may fail to work when it should.  
Never feed power to other equipment by cutting  
the insulation of the power supply lead of the  
unit and tapping into the lead. The current capac-  
ity of the lead will be exceeded, causing over-  
heating.  
When replacing a fuse, be sure to use only fuses  
of the rating prescribed on the fuse holder.
