Connecting the System

Pioneer does not recommend that you install your Navigation System your- self. We recommend that only authorized Pioneer service personnel, who have special training and experience in mobile electronics, set up and install the unit. NEVER SERVICE THE UNIT YOURSELF. Installing or servicing the unit and its connecting cables may expose you to the risk of electric shock or other hazards, and can cause damage to the Navigation System that is not covered by warranty.

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 the unit 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 pas- senger compartment into the engine compartment. If the yellow lead’s insu- lation tears as a result of contact with metal parts, short-circuiting can occur, resulting in considerable danger.

It is extremely dangerous to allow the GPS antenna cable or microphone cable to become wound around the steering column or shift lever. Be sure to install the unit, its cables, and wiring away in such a way that they will not obstruct or hinder driving.

Make sure that the cables and wires are routed and secured so they will not interfere with or become caught in any of the vehicle’s moving parts, espe- cially the steering wheel, shift lever, parking brake, 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 antenna cable to shorten it or use an extension to make it longer. Altering the antenna cable could result in a short circuit or malfunc- tion.
