When the command is recognized, it is repeated. 4. As necessary, repeat Steps 2 and 3. 5. The voice command is carried out.
■Operating by only voice when the Navigation System is started If you set “Auto Voice Recognition” in the Settings menu “ON”, you can operate from entering the password up to route setting by only voice after the engine of your car is started (only when the route is not set). In this case, the operation is performed as follows: 1 Start the engine of your car. 2 Confirm the message displayed on the screen, and say “OK” to the microphone. 3 When the screen to enter password appears, say the set password.
■Available voice commands related to audio Common to each source Equalizer Up, Equalizer Down, CD, Radio, Multi CD, DVD, XM Radio, Digital Audio Broadcasting, Source by NAVI, DVD Changer, Monitor DVD, TV Tuner, Video IN, Auxiliary, Source On, Source Off, Display NAVIGATION, Display AV, Back, Repeat For TUNER source Preset 1-6, Seek Up, Seek Down, [registered name], Next Page, Previous Page For CD source For Multi-CD (MCD) source Track 1-20, Random Play, Disc 1-12, ITS Play, Next Disc, Previous Disc, Next
■If you are not used to voice operation While you are still learning voice operation features, and want to use voice commands, it is recommended that you first park your car in a safe place and look at the commands shown by the Voice Help menu. When your car is parked with the parking brake on, press the TALK button to display a list of available voice commands (Voice Help menu). Display of the Voice Help menu can be turned on /off with “Voice Recognition Help” in the Settings menu.
■An example of voice operation When using the voice command, it is important to get the timing correct. Before speaking, you must first wait for the “Please request command” message. After the message is played, a Beep tone indicates that it is now your turn to speak, and the mark showing that you can speak is displayed. In this example, you want to search for the nearest gas station. When presented with a list of search options, you say the number to the left of the option you want to select.
4 Say “Gas Station”. The map of the nearest gas station is shown. The message, “Would you like to stop by?” follows. 5 After confirming the location, say “Yes”. With the location shown on the map set as the destination (or way point), the route calculation starts. ➲ If you want to see maps with other options, at Step 5 say “Next”. ➲ If you say “No”, the message “You can return to previous mode by pressing the (Back) button” appears.
Tips for Voice Operation For your voice commands to be correctly recognized and interpreted, ensure that conditions are suitable for recognition. Reduce the volume setting on your car audio system The voice recognition system may have problems distinguishing your voice commands from background noise. Turn down your audio system: remember that voices on the radio might be interpreted as commands.

Appendix Positioning Technology The Navigation System accurately measures your current location by combining the positioning by GPS and by Dead Reckoning. Positioning by GPS The Global Positioning System (GPS) uses a network of satellites orbiting the Earth. Each of the satellites, which orbit at a height of 68,900,000 feet (21,000)km, continually broadcasts radio signals giving time and position information.
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 data of 3D Hybrid Sensor. However, if only the data from the 3D Hybrid Sensor is available for a long period, positioning errors are gradually compounded until the estimated position becomes unreliable.
Handling Large Errors Positioning errors are kept to a minimum by combining GPS, Dead Reckoning, and map matching. However, in some situations, these functions may not work properly, and the error may become bigger. ■When the positioning by GPS is impossible • If signals cannot be received from more than two GPS satellites, GPS positioning does not take place. • In some driving conditions, signals from GPS satellites may not reach your car.
■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.
Troubleshooting If you have problems operating your Navigation System, refer to this section. The most common problems are listed below, along with likely causes and solutions. While this list is not comprehensive, it should answer your most common problems. If a solution to your problem cannot be found here, contact your dealer or the nearest authorized Pioneer service facility. You cannot position your car on the map or the positioning error is large.
The daylight display is used even when the car lights are on. Possible causes: (1) “Daytime Map” is selected on “Day/Night Map Display.” (2) The Orange/white lead is not connected. Solutions: (1) Check the “Day/Night Map Display” setting (see “Day/Night Map Display” on page 92) and make sure “Nighttime Map” is selected. (2) Check the connection. The system will not switch on or will not operate. Possible causes: Installation or connection has been carried out incorrectly. Solutions: Check with your dealer.
When the screen is frozen... Park your car at a safe place, and cut the engine off. Turn the ignition key back to “Acc off”. Then start the engine again, and turn the power to the main unit back on. If this does not solve the problem, press the reset button on the main unit. If the display suddenly disappears (in case of AVIC-9DVD, AVIC-90DVD) When using the Navigation System with another manufacturer’s display, if the display suddenly disappears, setting of the image output may have changed.
Messages and how to react to them The following messages may be displayed by your Navigation System. ➲ There are occasions when you may see error messages other than those shown here. In such a case, follow the instructions given on the display. (1) “You cannot use this function while driving.” When: While trying to make a menu selection. What to do: Pull over and come safely to a halt, put the parking brake on, and then try again. (2)“This is not the appropriate disc. Please insert the appropriate disc.
(6) “Direction of G sensor is not correct. Please turn off the system and check the installation. After you have checked, please re-boot the system and press “OK”.” When: Direction of G sensor is set incorrectly. What to do: See the “Installation Manual” and set the direction of G sensor correctly. (7) “Gyro Sensor is not working properly. Please consult your dealer or Pioneer service center.” When: Abnormal output of Gyrosensor is detected.
(13)“Memory is Full.” When: When there is no more free space in the PC card. What to do: Delete unnecessary data. (14)“Initialization failed. Returning to PC card menu.” When: Your Navigation System could not initialize the PC card for some reason. What to do: Try the initialization again. If it still does not work, there may be some problems on the PC card. (15)“Irregular character strings. Please input again.” When: A symbol that cannot be pronounced was entered (during password registration).
Route Setting Information ■Route search specifications Your Navigation System sets a route to your destination by applying certain built-in rules to the map data. This section provides some useful information about how a route is set. Caution When a route is calculated, the route and voice guidance for the route is automatically set. Also, for day or time traffic regulations, only information about traffic regulations at the time when the route was calculated is shown.
■Route highlighting • Once set, the route is highlighted in bright green on the map. • The route may not be highlighted as far as the checkered flag showing your destination, depending on the place set as your destination. ■Intersection enlargement • When “Close-up of Intersection” is on, the map scale increases to show more detail as you approach an intersection. • If the intersection is approached in a gentle curve, the map displayed may differ from the actual road layout.
