Notes Before Using the System
■

• Pay close attention to all warnings in this manual and keep this manual handy for future
reference.
• Should this product fail to operate properly, contact your dealer or the nearest authorised
Pioneer service facility.

Handbrake interlock
Certain functions offered by this 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 while driving, the message “You cannot use this function while driv-
ing” will be displayed. Find a safe place to stop and apply the handbrake.
Colour difference of the map display between day and night
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 “Day/Night Map Display” on page 92).
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 Orange/white lead to this unit must be connected correctly.
Avoiding low battery
When using this unit, make sure to start your engine first. Using this unit without starting the
engine will run down the battery.
