The word "navigation" refers to the act of finding a route to a particular location. Successful navigation depends on a number of factors, but most important are knowledge of your destination, knowledge of the territory between you and your destination, and knowledge of your present location. On the basis of information you supply, such as an address or the name of a town, this system helps you locate your destination precisely. It then assists in the other two areas; sophisticated maps stored on CD-ROM provide detailed data about the road system you will use to get there, while a combination of satellite technology and built-in sensors enable your vehicle’s location to be tracked at all times and compared with the maps. Using this data, detailed directions for reaching your chosen destination are given as you drive. This combination of technology is what we call a Mobile Navigation System. How does it work? This Pioneer Mobile Navigation System relies on detailed map information stored on a CDROM. Before you begin a journey, the system helps you provide information about your destination. A suggested route is then automatically calculated and then displayed. At the same time, using a state-of-the-art global positioning system (GPS), the built-in gyrosensor, and the speed pulse data, the system calculates exactly where your vehicle is. Your current position is then displayed in the centre of the map. As soon as you begin to drive, the system gives you all the directions you need to keep to the route and reach your destination; this guidance is clearly shown on the display, but may also be given by voice. As you drive, all your vehicle’s movements are traced, so not only does your navigation system know where you are; it can also tell if you are keeping to the route or if you have strayed off it for some reason. • For more information about GPS, see "Positioning Technology" on page 129. ,QWURGXFWLRQ Features of Your Mobile Navigation System This section gives you an overview of the most important features and functions of your Pioneer Mobile Navigation System. Voice route guidance While under guidance, you receive voice navigation instructions. Three on-screen guidance modes Choose from Map mode, Arrow mode (in which your route is portrayed symbolically), and Split Screen mode (a combination of both). • These are just some of the features of your Mobile Navigation System. Refer to the relevant sections of this manual for details of each function. Operation Guidance Voice guidance for operation is provided. On-screen help Descriptions of each item on the menu are available. Remote control The Navigation commander makes operation simple. Map matching for increased accuracy A processing technique known as map matching increases the accuracy with which your current location is shown on the map. Operate using voice commands Your Mobile Navigation System accepts voice commands from the driver. Route planning Simply specify a final destination, and your Mobile Navigation System automatically sets a route there from your current location. Auto-rerouting Make a wrong turn, and the route automatically adjusts to accommodate the change. About This Manual This manual provides all the information you need to make full use of your new Mobile Navigation System. The first few sections give an overview of the system and explain how to prepare it for use. The remainder is in the form of a function reference giving full details of every feature. A comprehensive list of all sections of the manual is provided in the table of contents at the beginning of this introduction. How to use this manual For reasons of safety, it is particularly important that you fully understand your Mobile Navigation System before using it. However, you don’t have to read the whole manual before obtaining guidance to your first destination. The following summary indicates which chapters you should read now and which you can come back to later. (Read the chapters marked * before attempting to obtain guidance to your first destination.) 1 Getting Started* This chapter introduces the components of your Mobile Navigation System and takes you through the initial setup process. You should read this chapter first. 2 Basic Operation* Read this chapter after going through the setup process. It explains what you see on the display and how to use the menus. You will then be ready to navigate to your first destination. 3 Setting a Route to Your Destination* This chapter describes a number of ways to choose a destination. Choose the one that suits your first destination and read that section; you can then come back and read the rest of the chapter later. 4 Guidance to Your Destination* Before actually setting out toward your chosen destination, read this chapter to learn how to interpret the guidance given by your Mobile Navigation System. 5 Using the Guidance Menu This chapter provides information about the various functions available while you are under guidance. Read it to learn more about the useful features available to you while driving. 6 Customising the System The behaviour of your Mobile Navigation System depends on a number of settings. If you need to change any of the initial settings (default settings), read the relevant section of this chapter. ,QWURGXFWLRQ 7 Operating the System by Voice This chapter gives details of the voice recognition capabilities of your Mobile Navigation System. Read it when you are ready to begin giving voice commands while under guidance. Appendix Read the appendix to learn more about your Mobile Navigation System, the technology it uses, and such information as the availability of after-care. Terminology Before moving on, take a few minutes to read the following information about the conventions used in this manual. Familiarity with these conventions will help you greatly as you learn how to use your new equipment. • Buttons on your Navigation commander are referred to as: N(NAVI) button, K button. • Options in various menus are referred to like this: "DESTINATION HISTORY" and "SETTINGS". Cautionary remark Actions that you are to perform are numbered. The result of an action is often illustrated with a picture of the display. Extra information, alternative uses, and other notes are presented like this. *HWWLQJ6WDUWHG Your new Pioneer Mobile Navigation System relies on a combination of hardware and software to provide you with accurate positional information and guidance. Data from global positioning satellites and a built-in gyrosensor is processed by the software and compared with maps stored on CD-ROM to accurately show your position on the display. Before you can use the system, you must install the programme software (provided on a CDROM programme disc), insert the proper map disc (a separate CD-ROM), and complete a number of settings and calibrations. This section describes the components of the system and takes you step-by-step through this setup and calibration process. We suggest you spend a little time reading and understanding the text that follows as an introduction to handling both the hardware and software components of your new system. Hardware Components There are three main parts to the hardware: the main unit, the display, and a remote control unit called a Navigation commander. The main unit and display should be properly installed in your vehicle before you attempt to follow the instructions in this manual. The Navigation commander Once your Mobile Navigation System has been installed and set up for use, most operations are carried out using the Navigation commander. In order to work properly, the commander must be properly positioned with respect to the display. If you have difficulty issuing commands to the equipment, make sure there is a clear line of sight from the commander to the display. The commander has a joystick and a number of buttons. Their functions are explained below. *HWWLQJ6WDUWHG • ' (ON/OFF)button This is the power switch for your Mobile Navigation System. • Joystick/ - button The joystick has eight directions of movement. Use it to make choices on the display and to scroll the map. The joystick also acts as the -button; simply press it to select a location on the map or choose an option displayed on the screen. • N (NAVI) button The N(NAVI) button is used to view the map or return to guidance mode. Its use is explained in more detail in the relevant sections of this manual. Press this button to repeat the last guidance message. • K (MENU) button The K (MENU) button is used to display a menu of options on the screen. The menu displayed is contextual; that is, it depends on what mode the system is in. Its use is described in more detail in the relevant sections of this manual. • ( (RETURN) button While using a menu, this button will cancel the present operation and take you back to the previously displayed menu or list. • ) button This button is used to enlarge the scale of the displayed map, and also to cycle through multiple items of information on the display. • * button This button is used to reduce the scale of the displayed map, and also to cycle backwards through multiple items of information on the display. • H (TALK) button This button is used to initiate voice recognition, allowing you to give commands to the system by voice. • + (NEXT OPTION) button This button is used to cycle through possible matches when a voice command is given. • When you press a button on the Navigation commander, you will hear a confirmation "beep" from the system speaker. You can be sure that your command has been accepted when you hear this sound. Navigation commander batteries The Navigation commander requires two batteries (supplied). Take note of the following precautions when inserting or changing the batteries. Supplied alkaline batteries (UM-4, LR03 1.5 V) CAUTION • Take care to insert the batteries in the correct orientation as shown by the + and – marks in the diagram. • Do not mix new batteries with old. • Do not mix different types of batteries. Even batteries of the same size may have different voltages. • Remove the batteries from the Navigation commander if it will be out of use for a long period. • If a battery leaks, completely clean any liquid or deposits from the battery compartment before inserting new batteries. • The supplied batteries cannot be recharged. • We recommend using alkaline batteries as replacements. The main unit Reset button AVIC -505 CD-ROM slot • CD-ROM slot To open the cover and eject the CD-ROM, push the cover down at the "EJECT" mark. • Reset button In the event of a major malfunction of the system, use a ball-point pen or similar pointed object to reset it using this recessed button (see "Resetting the System" on page 140). *HWWLQJ6WDUWHG Preparing the System for Use A certain amount of preparation is necessary before you can use your new Navigation System. If you are using the system for the first time, read and carry out the instructions in this section. First, the appropriate software must be installed from the programme disc. Once the software has been successfully installed, you must insert the map disc for your area. You may then want to register the location of your home and perhaps set a password to limit use of the system. Finally, it is necessary to calibrate the system’s built-in gyrosensor. Calibration requires that you are on a level stretch of open road without tall buildings or large stands of trees nearby, and you will need to be able to drive straight forward for about 100 yards (100 m). Please choose a quiet location with no obstacles for this purpose. 1RWH • The explanation that follows assumes that the system has been properly installed according to the accompanying Installation Manual. Inserting the programme disc The programme disc holds the basic software needed by your system. In order to install the software, you must first insert the programme disc into the main unit. CAUTION • Do not attempt to carry out this procedure while your vehicle is in motion. Do not start driving while the programme is being installed. • Follow this same procedure if you want to change the language used. 7XUQRQWKHLJQLWLRQDQGVWDUWWKHHQJLQH 0DNHVXUH\RXDUHVWDWLRQDU\DQGLQDVDIHORFDWLRQDQGWKDWWKHKDQGEUDNHLV DSSOLHG 7XUQRQWKHSRZHUWRWKH0RELOH1DYLJDWLRQ6\VWHPE\SUHVVLQJWKH'EXWWRQRQ WKH1DYLJDWLRQFRPPDQGHU You are asked to insert the appropriate programme disc. &OLFNRSHQWKH&'520FRYHUE\SXVKLQJGRZQDWWKHSRLQWPDUNHG(-(&7 ,QVHUWWKHSURJUDPPHGLVFLQWRWKHVORWODEHOVLGHXS AVIC -505 As you slide the CD-ROM into the slot, it will be automatically drawn into the unit. • Do not attempt to use discs other than a programme disc designed for use with this system.

Do not keep a note of your password in the vehicle. • If you choose to register a password, you will have to enter your password every time the Navigation System is turned on. Enter the password as you did above or say your password. Calibrating the built-in gyrosensor Your Mobile Navigation System contains a gyrosensor as part of the positioning system. Before it will operate correctly, however, the gyrosensor must be calibrated. To prepare for this, stop your vehicle on an open stretch of road free of tall buildings and clumps of trees. You will need to proceed forward for about 100 m (100 yards) to complete the calibration, so make sure there are not likely to be any obstacles in your path. CAUTION • You will not normally need to recalibrate the gyrosensor again. However, if you reinstall the unit, install it in a different vehicle, or change tyres, you will have to repeat this process. (See "Location Status" on page 108.) • If you are just changing tyres temporarily, such as from summer tyres to winter tyres, you do not have to go through this process. For these types of changes, just switch the calibration memory. (See "Selecting a calibration memory" on page 111 for details.) :LWKWKH'HVWLQDWLRQPHQXRQWKHVFUHHQSUHVVWKHN1$9,EXWWRQRQ\RXU 1DYLJDWLRQFRPPDQGHU A map of your surroundings is displayed.

Safety-related Features Handbrake interlock Certain functions offered by this Mobile Navigation System could be dangerous if used while driving. To prevent them being used while in motion, there is an interlock with your vehicle’s handbrake. If you attempt to use these functions whilst driving, the message "You cannot use this function while driving" will be displayed. Find a safe place to stop and apply the handbrake. Day and night map backgrounds To prevent the normal display from appearing too bright and distracting you when driving after dark or in dull conditions, the map background changes automatically to a darker colour when you switch on your vehicle lights. You can, however, turn off this automatic switching (see "Auto day/night background" on page 112). Daytime display Night display The examples in this manual are illustrated using the daytime display. When driving at night, the colours you see may differ from those shown. • To use this function, the ILL lead to the Mobile Navigation Unit must be connected correctly. *HWWLQJ6WDUWHG What Next? This completes the setup of your Mobile Navigation System. It is now ready for use.

What follows depends on the state of the system when it was last switched off. • If you leave your Navigation System on when you turn off the ignition, then the next time you turn on the ignition it will start up automatically. On the other hand, if you manually turn the system off using the Navigation commander, you will need to switch it on manually next time. • Using this system without starting the engine will run down your battery. Please make sure your engine is running before you switch it on. The first time you switch the system on, the Destination menu appears once you have dismissed the opening screen and entered your password. You are presented with a list of options that help you find or specify a destination in order to obtain guidance to it. If you have used the system before and you were being guided to a destination when you last switched it off (or turned off the ignition ), then guidance to your destination will resume as soon as the system is switched on again. In all other cases, however, the first display you see after dismissing the opening screen and entering your password is the Destination menu. ,I\RXZHUHQRWXQGHUJXLGDQFHZKHQWKHV\VWHPZDVVZLWFKHGRIIRULI\RXDUH VZLWFKLQJWKHV\VWHPRQIRUWKHILUVWWLPH The Destination menu is displayed. This menu gives access to various me-thods of choosing a destination. You can also gain access to the various system settings from this menu. • Full details of how to use the Destination menu are given in “Settng a Route to Your Destination”. • If you were being guided to a destination when you last switched off the system. Then guidance mode will resume. This means that if you stop at a service station, for example, when you resume your journey the system will pick up where it left off and give you onward guidance toward your destination. If you press the K (MENU) button on the Navigation commander while in guidance mode, the Guidance menu is displayed. This gives access to the various functions and features you need while under guidance. You can also gain access to the various system settings from this menu. • Full details of Guidance menu usage are given in “Guidance to Your Destination” and “Using Guidance Menu”. %DVLF2SHUDWLRQ Basic Menu Usage The Destination menu and Guidance menu provide access to most of the important functions of your Mobile Navigation System. There is also a Settings menu, which you use to customise the appearance and behaviour of your system. The various options presented in these menus are selected using the joystick on your Navigation commander. Displaying the menus The Destination and Guidance menus are central to the operation of this navigation system, and you can gain quick access to them at any time using the K (MENU) button on the Navigation commander. If no destination has been set, pressing the K (MENU) button causes the Destination menu to appear. On the other hand, if you are already being guided to a destination, the Guidance menu is displayed. The Settings menu, which you can use at any time to change certain basic settings, is reached by choosing "SETTINGS" from either the Destination menu or the Guidance menu. • "Selecting from a menu or list" below explains how to choose an item from a menu. Selecting from a menu or list Selecting from a menu is a two step procedure in which you first highlight an option and then actually select it by clicking the - button. The same procedure is also used to select from any lists or submenus which appear as a result of making choices from these main menus. You may already have some experience with this procedure if you chose to register your home location or a password in “Getting Started”. 0DNH\RXUFKRLFHE\VFUROOLQJXSRUGRZQWRLWXVLQJWKHMR\VWLFN As each menu item is reached, it is highlighted in yellow. For certain items, the information and map symbols may also appear to the left and right, respectively. • If the menu contains more items than can be displayed on one screen, the presence of extra items is indicated by green arrows at the top or bottom of the list. To view these items, simply scroll up or down to them using the joystick. • When a list is displayed, you can use the ) and * buttons to move up or down quickly. ,QSXWWKHKLJKOLJKWHGFKRLFHE\FOLFNLQJWKH-EXWWRQ The selection is made and the screen changes accordingly.

Generally, you can choose to do this by directly entering the text. Whenever there is a need for text to be input, you are presented with a text palette. You will most often see this text palette when asked to enter a password and when you wish to search for a destination. You may already have some experience with the procedure if you have chosen to register your home location or a password in “Getting Started”. Understanding the text palette display The text palette consists of a text entry box and a palette of letters, numbers, and other icons that you can select. A cursor (a small underscore) in the text entry box marks the position at which the next character will be input. The icons that appear in the text palette vary according to the type of information you are expected to input. ? Delete backward (deletes the previous character) @ Space (moves the cursor forward) D Lists recent results. (For example, if the text palette is asking for a city name, clicking this icon will display a list of recently searched cities.) E Choose this icon if you can’t provide the information requested; for example when input of a street number is called for, choosing this icon sets a route to the nearest point along the chosen road or street. B Provides a list of streets that intersect with the chosen road or street. How to input text Follow these instructions to enter text using the text palette. 8VHWKHMR\VWLFNWRSRVLWLRQWKHFXUVRURYHUWKHOHWWHURUQXPEHU\RXZLVKWR LQSXW The character highlights in yellow to indicate that it has been selected. &OLFNWKH-EXWWRQ The selected character appears in the text box at the cursor position. &RQWLQXHWRHQWHUFKDUDFWHUVLQDVLPLODUZD\XQWLO\RXKDYHHQWHUHGWKH FRPSOHWHWH[W • You will notice that your choice of characters is limited at each point to those matching locations on the map. This helps to speed up the entry of text. <RXFDQGHOHWHDFKDUDFWHUXVLQJ? • Depending on the situation, other icons may appear in the text palette, and these can be selected in a similar way with the joystick. :KHQWKHWH[WLVFRPSOHWHVHOHFW2.DWERWWRPULJKWRIWKHWH[WSDOHWWHXVLQJ WKHMR\VWLFN • In some cases, "DONE" (at bottom left of the display) may replace "OK". &OLFNWKH-EXWWRQ Your text is input. %DVLF2SHUDWLRQ The Map Display Much of the information provided by your Pioneer Mobile Navigation System is presented in the form of maps. It is important that you become familiar with the map display and learn what the various symbols on the maps mean. Understanding the map display The display is much like a conventional map, and shows roads of various designations as well as geographical features such as rivers, parks, and woods. Learn to recognise these features by scrolling the map to an area you know well (see "Scrolling the map display" below). There are also a number of symbols associated with the map display. Some form a permanent part of the map display, while others depend on settings made elsewhere. :LWKWKH'HVWLQDWLRQPHQXGLVSOD\HGSUHVVWKHN1$9,EXWWRQRQ\RXU 1DYLJDWLRQFRPPDQGHU The map display appears. Your current location is shown on the map. The meaning of the various icons on the map display is as follows. M The current location of your vehicle. The arrow indicates your heading, and the display moves automatically as you drive. , Map scale indicator. The figure gives the distance represented by the red bar. A Radius mark. Circle around your current location with a radius equal to the red bar on the map scale indicator. F Compass mark. The red arrow indicates north. Tracking marks indicating the route you have travelled (displayed with dots); your previous 200 km (120 miles) are shown. Names of roads (shown at the bottom of the display) • If you set "MAP ORIENTATION" to "HEADING UP" in the Settings menu, your current location is displayed slightly lower than the centre of the screen. On the other hand, if "MAP ORIENTATION" is set to "NORTH UP", your location is displayed at the centre of the display (see page 99). The default setting is "HEADING UP". • The information given on the map display changes once a route has been set (see "On-screen Guidance" on page 76). Scrolling the map display Whenever you switch to the map display, your current position is shown just below the centre of the display (or in the centre if "MAP ORIENTATION" is set to "NORTH UP"; see "Changing the Factory Settings" on page 99). However, you can scroll the map in any direction using the joystick; simply push the joystick in the direction you wish to scroll. Eight directions of movement are possible. • If you hold down the - button while scrolling the map, minor roads will be suppressed from the display. This increases the scrolling speed. To stop scrolling, release the joystick and allow it to return to the centre position. Scrolling will stop immediately. To return the map to a display of your current location again, press the N (NAVI) button on your Navigation commander. Scrolled map showing cross hairs. 5 Scroll location. The cross hairs indicate a position on the map when you scroll away from your current location.

Your First Destination You have now learned how to interpret the information shown on the display and are ready to begin using your Mobile Navigation System to navigate to a destination. The next step is to use the Destination menu to tell the system about your first destination. Depending on what you know about your intended destination, and the type of place it is, read the appropriate section of "Setting a Route to Your Destination" as follows. Read section "Finding a Destination by Street/City Search" on page 55 if: • You have the full address of your destination • Your destination is the centre of a city, town, or village • You don’t know the exact address, but can locate your destination manually once a map of the nearest city, town, or village is displayed on the screen. Read section "Finding a Destination by Specific Post Code" on page 62 if: • You know only the post code of your destination • You want to view a particular post code area on the map and then manually choose a nearby destination • You know the post code, street name, and house number of your destination. Read section "Setting a Route to a Specific Point of Interest" on page 64 if: • You want to route to a railway station, tourist information office, or similar point of interest in a particular city, town, or village Read section "Finding a Destination on the Map" on page 71 if: You want to manually search for a destination because you have no other information about it • Setting a route using the map is most useful if your destination is nearby, or if you are familiar with the geographical area. 6HWWLQJD5RXWHWR\RXU'HVWLQDWLRQ ,QWKLVFKDSWHU\RXZLOOOHDUQKRZWRILQGDGHVWLQDWLRQIRUURXWLQJKRZWRVHWDURXWH KRPHDQGKRZWRXVHWKHRWKHUURXWLQJIXQFWLRQVRIIHUHGE\\RXU3LRQHHU0RELOH 1DYLJDWLRQ6\VWHP7KHVHIXQFWLRQVDUHDYDLODEOHIURPWKH'HVWLQDWLRQPHQX7KH 'HVWLQDWLRQPHQXDSSHDUVZKHQHYHU\RXSXVKWKHK0(18EXWWRQXQOHVV\RXDUH DOUHDG\LQJXLGDQFHPRGHLQZKLFKFDVHWKH*XLGDQFHPHQXLVGLVSOD\HGVHH³*XLGDQFH WR<RXU'HVWLQDWLRQ´ The Destination menu allows you to set a route to: • a previously visited destination • back home or to a previously stored location (if they have been registered) • a location identified by address, partial address, or post code • a point of interest chosen from a list • a specified point on the map. • Some roads and streets have restrictions that limit access to certain types of vehicle. In order to set a correct route, your Mobile Navigation System must know what type of vehicle you are driving. Make sure you correctly select your vehicle type before attempting to set a route (see “Vehicle type” on page 107). • The “GO TO (registered location name)” item appears only after a stored location is registered. If no stored location has been registered, it reads “ROUTE TO ...” - and you can register a location by choosing it. CAUTION • Remember: do not operate your Mobile Navigation System while in motion if doing so will divert your attention from the safe operation of your vehicle. To be safe, pull over and come to a halt before using any of the functions in the Destination menu. Always observe safe driving rules and follow all existing traffic regulations. 6HWWLQJD5RXWHWR\RXU'HVWLQDWLRQ Setting a Route Using the Destination History The Destination history allows you to easily obtain guidance from your current location to any previously visited location. Using the Destination history The Destination history is a convenient list of places that you have routed to in the past. Up to 98 previous destinations are stored in the list, and you can rename or delete particular listings at any time. To set a route back to one of these listings, all you have to do is to select it from the list. • If you are using your Mobile Navigation System for the first time, the Destination history will be empty and you cannot select your destination by this method.

It is not a substitute for your attentiveness, judgment, and care when driving. Do not use the Navigation commander or look at the display if doing so will divert your attention from the safe operation of your vehicle. Always observe safe driving rules and follow all existing traffic regulations. About Screen Guidance and Voice Guidance Your Mobile Navigation System provides you with directions as you drive toward your destination. As well as screen instructions, you will hear voice directions. *XLGDQFHWR<RXU'HVWLQDWLRQ Initiating Guidance Your Pioneer Mobile Navigation System automatically switches to guidance mode once a route has been set. Once route setting is completed, the map appears on the display and your current location is shown by M. The suggested route appears as a bold bright green line leading away from your vehicle’s position as marked by M. %HJLQGULYLQJLQWKHGLUHFWLRQLQGLFDWHGE\M • As you drive, the Mmark showing your vehicle's position moves accordingly. Voice Guidance Your Mobile Navigation System provides voice directions simultaneously with on-screen guidance. This feature allows you to concentrate on driving, eliminating the need for you to continually monitor the display. When do you hear voice directions? Once under guidance, you will hear directions telling you what to do at each upcoming turn. What if you miss an instruction? If you want to hear a repeat of the latest guidance, simply press the N (NAVI) button on the Navigation commander. You will hear the directions for the upcoming turn once again. What do you hear? As you drive in guidance mode, the system will provide you with a range of information about upcoming turns and the streets you are passing. It also warns you when you are nearing your destination. You will hear: • Distance to the next turn or other instruction • The turn direction • Names of motorways • Final destination • Guidance is available using three different voices, two recorded (female or male) and the other synthesised. You choose between them using the “GUIDANCE VOICE” setting on page 107. *XLGDQFHWR<RXU'HVWLQDWLRQ On-screen Guidance Guidance is also given through on-screen instructions whenever the system is in guidance mode. Here you will learn how to interpret the various information presented to you on the screen, and how to customise the display of guidance information. Guidance modes You can obtain on-screen guidance in three different forms, or modes. “Map mode” indicates your progress on the map with M. “Arrow mode” displays a simple representation of upcoming intersections, indicating which way you should turn. “Split Screen mode” combines both methods of guidance on the display. Map mode This is the mode that is displayed when guidance begins. In this mode, the position of your vehicle is superimposed on the map. It provides an easily understood view of progress toward your destination. The route is marked by a bold bright green line, and the direction in which you are heading is clearly shown by M. The following information is presented in this mode: Name or designation of the next road or street on your route (Name of motorway or motorway junction) • If the information is too long to display in full, it is truncated with “...” Distance to the next way point Destination icon (if your destination is on the map) Your route (in bright green.) Remaining distance to your destination Name or designation of current road or street Way point icon Compass icon Origin icon (if your origin is on the map) • As you approach a intersection, an enlarged map of the intersection is displayed. This makes it much easier to navigate your way around complex intersections. If you scroll the map while in this enlarged view, the normal map reappears. • With “AUTO ROAD HIDING” turned on, minor roads are not displayed as long as you are on the correct route and the street is a major street (see page 107). *XLGDQFHWR<RXU'HVWLQDWLRQ Arrow mode This mode presents you with a simple representation of upcoming intersections on your route. It gives a clear indication of which way to turn. Although it provides no visual clue as to your present position on the map, in contrast with “Map mode”, it provides simple and precise directions for each turn as you approach it. In this mode, the following information is presented on the display: Name or designation of the next road or street on your route (name of motorway or motorway junction) • If the information is too long to display in full, it is truncated with “...” Distance to the next way point Your route (in bright green) Your present position and direction (displayed by M as you approach an intersection only) Name or designation of current road or street Compass icon Points of interest in the vicinity of you, current location (as selected for overlay on the map, see “Working with points of interest” on page 69) • Point of interest icons have three background colours: No background: point of interest nearby Green background: along regular route Blue background: along motorway on the route Remaining distance to your destination Estimated time to your destination (up to 99 hours and 59 minutes) • The actual time required to reach your destination may differ from that displayed depending on actual vehicle speed and traffic conditions. • If you are not on the correct route (such as in a car park or have just left the set route), a map is displayed. Displaying upcoming intersections In Arrow mode, you can also view upcoming intersections. :KLOHLQ$UURZPRGHFOLFNXSZLWKWKHMR\VWLFN The display divides into two sections. The usual information about the next intersection is shown to the left. On the right is information about intersections beyond the next one. 7RUHWXUQWRWKHQRUPDO$UURZPRGHGLVSOD\SUHVVWKHN1$9,EXWWRQ *XLGDQFHWR<RXU'HVWLQDWLRQ Split Screen mode In this mode, both the map and arrow guidance displays appear side by side. Although less additional information is available on the screen, this mode is convenient because it gives precise directions regarding upcoming turns while also allowing you to see your progress on the map. Switching between on-screen guidance modes You can switch between the three guidance modes at any time without interrupting the flow of directions. &OLFNWKH-EXWWRQ • As you click the - button, the mode cycles through the sequence: Map mode → Arrow mode → Split Screen mode → Map mode. • You can also set the guidance mode from the Guidance menu; see “Changing the Guidance Mode” on page 91. If You Stray from the Route If for any reason you stray away from the suggested route, your Mobile Navigation System will help you get back on track. • If the “AUTO REROUTE” function is ON, it will automatically calculate a new route to your destination within a short time of your vehicle leaving the set route. • The “AUTO REROUTE” function can be turned off in the Settings menu; see page 102. • If the “AUTO REROUTE” function is OFF and you are in Arrow mode or Split Screen mode, the display automatically changes to Map mode. If you return to the set route, the display will return to Arrow mode or Split Screen mode. • If you fail to follow a route immediately after it has been first set, (such as if you leave in the wrong direction when exiting a large car park, for example) the voice warning “Please proceed to the highlighted route” will be given before rerouting takes place. *XLGDQFHWR<RXU'HVWLQDWLRQ If You Take a Break While being guided to your destination, you may need to stop to fill up with fuel or simply want a rest. This poses no problem for your Mobile Navigation System; it will remember the destination you have chosen. When you start your car up again, it will come on and resume guidance where it left off when you stopped. • When you start the engine after a break, the system may rebuild the route data. This may take a few moments. Route guidance will begin when the process is finished. • When you start the engine after a break, route guidance will begin in the same mode as displayed when you stopped. Settings You can use the Settings menu to customise certain guidance characteristics.

Some settings are simple choices presented in the form of buttons; in this case just highlight the appropriate button and click the - button. Others require text input and voice confirmation. A full explanation is given. Auto reroute Your Mobile Navigation System can automatically reroute you to your destination in certain situations. The default setting is “ON”. • ON: Rerouting will take place if you stray away from the route. • OFF: No automatic rerouting if you stray off the route. You must manually reroute (see “REROUTE: Setting a New Route to Your Destination” on page 86) to obtain guidance to your destination. Time turn restriction Certain streets and turns have restrictions that apply only at certain times of day, such as turn restrictions and restrictions on direction. This setting allows these restrictions to be taken into account when setting a route. The default setting is “OFF”. • ON: Roads and intersections with time restrictions may be considered in the route. • OFF: Roads and intersections with time restrictions are not considered from the route. • The TIME TURN RESTRICTION setting will not be used if you set a route while in a car park or in any other off-road location. (The route will be set as if TIME TURN RESTRICTION is set to OFF.) Selecting “ON” • The cursor moves to the clock display. The joystick can be moved up or down to make adjustments. Set the current hour and click the - button when done. (Minutes cannot be set.) • If the clock is not properly set, routing will not be reliable. • Take care to adjust the clock for Daylight Savings time and for the time difference between countries. • Under certain conditions, time turn restrictions will not be taken into account when setting a route. That is, roads and intersections with time turn restrictions may appear in the route. • “AUTO REROUTE” is fixed “ON” and cannot be changed. CAUTION • Your route will be determined based upon the time of day at which you input your destination and not when you actually make your turn. Always observe traffic laws existing at the time you wish to make your turn. Street list on route This function displays a list of roads and streets along the route every time a route is set to a new destination. By reading the list of streets, you can check the route. The default setting is “OFF”. • ON: A list of streets and roads is displayed • OFF: No list of streets along your route is shown • The list can include up to 20 streets. • If the number of roads and streets along the route exceeds the limit, the top 20 are shown as ranked by importance and distance travelled. Selecting “ON” • When a new route is set, a list of roads and streets is displayed before guidance begins. • Only major roads and streets on route to the destination are listed. • By selecting a road or street on the list and moving the joystick to the right, its location can be confirmed on the map.

The default setting is “AUTOMATIC”. • When “AUTOMATIC” is selected, the text on the map is usually displayed in the same language as used by the menus (and which is also used for voice guidance). However, if the language used by the menus is not available on the map disc currently in use, the map disc’s default language (which differs according to the map disc) is used for text on the map instead. • Choosing a language from the list will cause the map text to display in that language. However, if the language used by the menus is not available on the map disc currently in use, the map disc’s default language (which differs according to the map disc) is used for text on the map instead. Short menus Short versions of the Destination menu and Guidance menu are available. These give only the most frequently used functions. Here, you can set these short menus to be displayed. The default setting is “(A) AND (B) STANDARD”. • SHORT DESTINATION MENU(A): Use the short Destination menu only • SHORT GUIDANCE MENU(B): Use the short Guidance menu only • (A) AND (B) STANDARD: Use both standard menus • (A) AND (B) SHORT: Use both short menus • The short menus include a “SHOW STANDARD MENU” item. Selecting this allows you to return to the standard menu at any time. Operation voice instruction You can choose to receive voice information about menu selections when available. • ON: Voice instruction given • OFF: No voice instruction given Password You can place a password in the system to prevent unauthorised use. This may be necessary if you are driving a commercial vehicle with many drivers, but you want to restrict use of this Mobile Navigation System to certain people. In a private vehicle, you can register a password to prevent others gaining access to your Destination history and home location. You are given an opportunity to register a password when you first switch on the system. If you choose not to register one at that time, or if you want to change the password later, follow the directions in “Registering a password”on page 25. In order to register a new password, you must first enter the old password. • Use one of the memo pages at the end of this manual to note down your password, then remove the page and keep it in a safe place. Do not keep a note of your password in the vehicle. Km/mile setting You can choose the units used to display distances. The default setting is “AUTOMATIC”. • AUTOMATIC: Setting changes automatically depending on local usage • KM: Always display in kilometres • MILE: Always display in miles • MILE/YARD: Always display in miles and yards &XVWRPLVLQJWKH6\VWHP Language You can select the language used in menus and for voice guidance and voice recognition. +LJKOLJKW³/$1*8$*(´DQGFOLFNWKH-EXWWRQ You are instructed to eject the map disc and insert the appropriate programme disc.

These are outlined below. • 5HGXFHWKHYROXPHVHWWLQJRQ\RXUFDUDXGLRV\VWHP The voice recognition system may have problems differentiating your voice commands if there is too much extraneous noise. Turn down your audio system and remember that voices on the radio might be interpreted as commands. • &ORVHWKHYHKLFOHZLQGRZV Just as the 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 recognition, try closing the vehicle windows. • 3RVLWLRQWKHPLFURSKRQHFDUHIXOO\ 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 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. • 3DXVHEHIRUHJLYLQJDFRPPDQG After pressing the H (TALK) button on the Navigation commander, pause for a moment after the confirmation “beep” before giving a voice command. Speaking too soon may cause recognition to fail.

This Mobile Navigation System brings together a number of these techniques to provide you with an accurate, and constantly updated, indication of your vehicle’s position. Here, we provide an outline of the technology used in the system. $SSHQGL[ What is GPS? The global positioning system, or GPS, depends on a network of artificial satellites encircling the earth. Each of the 24 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. GPS signals can be freely picked up by anyone with the appropriate equipment. By applying sophisticated signal processing techniques to the data received, it is possible to determine a location to within a few tens of metres. Advances in electronics mean that the computing power needed to do this signal processing is easily fitted into aircraft, boats, and now even navigation systems for vehicles. How is it used? GPS is used by this system to determine the absolute location of your vehicle. This enables it to display your location accurately on a map. The accuracy of the information obtained with GPS depends on how good the reception is. When the signals are strong and reception is good, it is possible to determine latitude, longitude, and altitude for accurate positioning in three dimensions (3D). On the other hand, if signal quality is low, only two dimensions (2D), latitude and longitude, can be obtained and positioning errors are somewhat greater. • The GPS satellites are administered by the United States Department of Defence; on occasion, the data broadcast by the satellites may intentionally be reduced in quality. In such a case, positioning errors will increase. When is it used? GPS is used to determine your position whenever adequate signals are available. However, there are times when this is not possible and the system has to rely on an estimated position (see “Dead reckoning” below). • If signals can be picked up from no more than two GPS satellites, GPS positioning does not take place. • Under some driving conditions, signals from GPS satellites may not reach your vehicle. In this case, it is not possible 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 trough dense forest or tall trees • GPS reception may be lost temporarily if a car phone or cellular phone is used near the GPS aerial. Care of the GPS aerial Do not obstruct the GPS aerial with spray paint or car wax, as this may block the reception of GPS signals. Snow buildup may also degrade the signals, so keep the aerial clear. $SSHQGL[ Dead reckoning What is dead reckoning? Unlike GPS, dead reckoning relies on sensors installed in your vehicle to gather data about your movements. The built-in gyrosensor is able to detect the turning motion of your vehicle, and combines this with distance information taken from speed pulse data, as used by the speedometer, to approximately track your position. • The speed pulse data comes from the speed sensing circuit. The location of this speed sensing circuit depends on your vehicle model. In some cases, it is impossible to make a connection 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 gyroscopic data. However, if nothing but gyroscopic data is available for a long period, positioning errors are gradually compounded until the estimate of your location becomes unreliable. For this reason, whenever GPS signals are available, they are matched with the gyroscopic data and used to correct it for improved accuracy. Learning function for better accuracy To ensure maximum accuracy, the dead reckoning system incorporates a learning function. By comparing the position it estimates with your actual position as obtained using GPS, it is able to correct for various types of error, such as tyre wear and the rolling motion of your vehicle. As you drive, it gradually builds up more data, or learning, and the accuracy of its estimates gradually increases; as a result, you can expect your position as shown on the map to show fewer errors after you have driven some distance. Handling large errors If you use chains on your wheels for winter driving, or if you need to use the spare wheel, the errors may appear to suddenly increase as a result of the different wheel diameter. To prevent corruption of learning data that has been gradually built up about your vehicle, learning automatically stops when such errors suddenly appear. • If for any reason GPS signals cannot be picked up, learning and error correction are not possible. If GPS positioning has been operating for only a short time, your vehicle’s actual position and the current location mark on the map may diverge considerably. Once GPS reception is restored, accuracy will be recovered within about two hours. • There are two learning memories, so the system can learn about and compensate for two different tyre sets, such as summer and winter tyres. (See “Selecting a calibration memory” on page 111 for details.) Map matching As mentioned, the GPS and dead reckoning systems used by this Mobile 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 is able to correct your position by adjusting it to a nearby road. This is called map matching. With map matching With no map matching $SSHQGL[ Conditions likely to cause noticeable positioning errors Certain conditions are more likely to cause discrepancies between your actual position and the location shown on the map display. • If you make a slight turn • If there is a parallel road • If there is another road very nearby, such as in the case of an elevated motorway • If you take a recently opened road that is not on the map • If you drive in zig-zags • If the road has connected hairpin bends • If there is a loop or similar road configuration • If you take a ferry • If you are driving on a long, straight road or a gently curving road • If you are on a steep mountain road with many height changes $SSHQGL[ • If you enter or exit a multi-story car park lot or similar with a spiral junction • If your vehicle is turned on a turntable or similar • If your vehicle’s wheels spin, such as on a rough track or in snow • If you put on chains, or change your tyres for some of a different size • If trees or other obstacles block the GPS signals for a considerable period • If you drive very slowly, or in a start-and-stop manner, as in a traffic jam • If you join the road after driving around a large car park • When you pass around a roundabout $SSHQGL[ About CD-ROM Map Discs Map discs covering other areas are available for your Mobile Navigation System. You can use any map disc that is compatible with SDAL. To find out more, contact your nearest Pioneer service facility. Before calling, you need to check the version numbers of your present programme as described below; you may be asked for this information when you call. 7XUQWKH0RELOH1DYLJDWLRQ6\VWHPRQ Version of SDAL standard Pioneer programme reference code A display similar to this is shown for a few seconds. 1RWHGRZQWKHYHUVLRQQXPEHUVIRUWKHSURJUDPPH These are the SDAL and APL numbers on the display (SDAL V. 1 and APL:KNRNLA in the example shown). • The SDAL standard on the CD-ROM must match this SDAL standard. • In the case of a CD-ROM meeting the specified version of the SDAL standards but covering an area not authorised by Pioneer, the system may not operate correctly and could be very dangerous. Please contact Pioneer to check which areas are authorised. Handling and Care of CD-ROM Discs Some basic precautions are necessary when handling CD-ROM discs. • Do not touch the recorded surface of a CD-ROM. Carefully hold the disc by its outer edge or by the hole in the centre, as shown. • Do not attach sticky tape or similar to the surfaces of a CD-ROM. Avoid scratching the disc, or damaging it in any other way. • Keep CD-ROMs clean and free of dust. If it becomes necessary to clean a disk, use a soft, lint-free cloth to wipe the surface from the centre outward, as shown. • Never apply solvents such as benzene, thinner, commercial cleaners, or anti-static fluids intended for vinyl records to your CD-ROMs. • Keep your CD-ROMs away from direct sunlight, sources of heat, and sources of dust. Store the discs in their protective cases to provide greater protection against warping. Ambient conditions can affect the behaviour of discs and the operation of the system. • Vibrations caused by driving may sometimes interrupt the reading of map data from the CDROM, causing slow screen changes. • In cold weather, condensation may form on the optical lens used to read the CD-ROM or on the disc itself, particularly when the vehicle initially warms up. This may render the disc unreadable for up to an hour as the moisture evaporates naturally. You may wipe condensation of a disc with a soft cloth (from the centre outward). • At extremely high temperatures, a temperature cut-off protects the Navigation System by switching it off automatically. $SSHQGL[ Resetting the System It may on occasion be necessary to reset your Mobile Navigation System. When a reset is necessary You should reset the system in the following situations: • After installation of the hardware in your vehicle. • If there appear to be problems with the operation of the system. • If there are problems with the display. Using the reset button The reset button is recessed on the front of the main unit to prevent accidental use. Find it in the bottom left corner of the front panel. Reset button ,QVHUWDSRLQWHGLPSOHPHQWVXFKDVDEDOOSRLQWSHQLQWRWKHVPDOOKROHDQGSXVK The system switches off. • If the CD-ROM cover is open when you press the reset button, the disc is ejected. 6ZLWFKWKHV\VWHPRQDJDLQXVLQJWKH1DYLJDWLRQFRPPDQGHU Troubleshooting Refer to this section if you have problems operating your Mobile Navigation System.

This section provides some useful information about how a route is set. CAUTION • Route-setting takes place automatically and guidance is based on the set route. The system cannot take into account traffic restrictions and controls that depend on the day. As you follow guidance, you must check the traffic restrictions for roads along your route. • The set route is not necessarily the shortest route to your destination. • Route setting is limited to the range of the map disc in use. Additionally, if the destination is too far, there may be instances where the route cannot be set. • If you attempt to select a point on a motorway as a destination, a location on a nearby road (such as below the motorway) may be chosen instead. • During voice guidance, turns and junction from motorway are automatically announced. (However, if you pass junctions, turns, and other guide points in quick succession, some may not be announced.) • Incorrect guidance may be given at motorway junctions if the exit lane is particularly long. • If you choose a destination at a great distance from your current location, route setting may take a long time. How a Route Is Set • In some cases, the set route may assume travel in the opposite direction to your current heading. • In some cases, a route may begin on the opposite side of a railway or river from your actual current location. If this happens, try setting the route when closer to where you want to travel. • Sometimes a route will unavoidably be set along roads in an area set to be avoided. • It is possible that guidance may direct you off a motorway and then back on again. • In some cases, guidance may direct you past your destination and then indicate a U-turn to get back to it. • If a route along a normal motorway passes near a motorway service area, the system may mistake the service area for a motorway junction. • If a suitable route cannot be set in compliance with the specified “DETOUR” parameter, an area to be avoided, or your preference to avoid motorways, the setting or parameter may be ignored. • If your destination is a motorway 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. • When performing a “RESUME ORIGINAL ROUTE”, the shortest way back to the original route is found. It may take you along winding roads, narrow city streets, and other nonoptimal roads. Route Highlighting Once set, the route is highlighted in bright green on the map (except in Arrow mode). • On major motorways and wide roads, where a road is on multiple levels, or in mountainous areas with many hills and curves, the highlighted route may not coincide exactly with 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. • If you set a further destination, the route to the second destination only becomes highlighted after you reach your first destination. $SSHQGL[ Intersection Enlargement As you approach a intersection, the map scale is increased to show more detail. • When the map scale increases, your vehicle direction immediately before reaching the intersection is shown as “UP”. Thus, if you approach the intersection in a straight line, the current location mark will come onto the map from the bottom of the display. If the road curves into the intersection, the current location mark will enter the intersection from the side. • If the intersection is approached in a gentle curve, the map displayed may differ from the actual road layout. Current Location Under certain conditions, map matching is unable to correct your position and your current location may be shown incorrectly. • If the vehicle has just been started or you turn on the Mobile Navigation System while already in motion. • When driving through tunnels, under motorways, among high-rise buildings, or wherever reception of GPS signals is poor or multi-pass noise is present. • Near a DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) station. • When there is a road parallel to your route, such as an upper or lower level of a motorway, and the two are displayed on the map as separate roads. • On roads within industrial sites or on roads adjoining or in the vicinity of such sites. • When negotiating multi-level intersection and Y intersections. • On mountain roads with many sharp curves and numerous rises and falls. • After a long stretch of straight or gently curving road. • When using snow chains or if your vehicle’s wheels slip. • After changing to tyres with different dimensions. Other Information Tracking Your Mobile Navigation System marks your course on the map in certain increments (of approximately 50 m (45 yards)). 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 200 km (124 miles) 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 whenever the Navigation System is switched off (“TRACKING DISPLAY” on page 111). $SSHQGL[ Specifications Main unit GPS aerial *365HFHLYHU Aerial ...............................Microstrip flat aerial/right-handed .......................................................... helical polarisation Dimensions .............................51 (W) x 53 (H) x 16 (D) mm Weight ........................................................................0.13 kg System ....................................................
