We recommend that only authorised
Pioneer service personnel, who have
special training and experience in mobile
electronics, set up and install this product.
NEVER SERVICE THIS PRODUCT YOURSELF.
Installing or servicing this product and its

• Read this manual fully and carefully
before installing this product.
• Keep this manual handy for future
reference.
• Pay close attention to all warnings in this
manual and follow the instructions
carefully.
• This product may in certain
circumstances display inaccurate position
of your vehicle, the distance of objects
shown on the screen, and compass
directions. In addition, the system has
certain limitations, including the inability
to identify one-way streets, temporary
traffic restrictions and potentially unsafe
driving areas. Please exercise your own
judgement in the light of actual driving
conditions.
• As with any accessory in your vehicle's

Precautions before
connecting the system
WARNING
Do not take any steps to tamper with or
disable the handbrake interlock system
which is in place for your protection.
Tampering with or disabling the
handbrake interlock system could result in
serious injury or death.
CAUTION
• If you decide to perform the installation
yourself, and have special training and
experience in the mobile electronics
installations, please carefully follow all of
the steps in the installation manual.
• Secure all wiring with cable clamps or
electrical tape. Do not allow any bare
wiring to remain exposed.
• Do not directly connect the yellow lead of
this product to the vehicle battery. If the
lead is directly connected to the 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. If the yellow lead's
insulation tears as a result of contact with
metal parts, short-circuiting can occur,
resulting in considerable danger.
• It is extremely dangerous to allow cables
to become wound around the steering
column or gearstick. Be sure to install this
product, its cables, and wiring away in
such so that they will not obstruct or
hinder driving.
• Make sure that the cables and wires will
not interfere with or become caught in
any of the vehicle's moving parts,
especially the steering wheel, gearstick,
handbrake, sliding seat tracks, doors, or
any of the vehicle's controls.
• Do not route wires where they will be
exposed to high temperatures. If the
insulation heats up, wires may become
damaged, resulting in a short circuit or
malfunction and permanent damage to
the product.
• Do not cut the GPS aerial cable to shorten
it or use an extension to make it longer.
Altering the aerial cable could result in a
short circuit or malfunction.
• Do not shorten any leads. If you do, the
protection circuit (fuse holder, fuse
resistor or filter, etc.) may fail to work
properly.
• Never feed power to other electronic
products by cutting the insulation of the
power supply lead of this product and
tapping into the lead. The current
capacity of the lead will be exceeded,
causing overheating.
