setting, camera image is not resized to fit, but that a portion of what is seen by the camera is not viewable.

Pioneer recommends the use of a camera which outputs mirror reversed images, otherwise screen image may appear reversed.

Confirm the setting immediately whether the display changes to a rear view camera image when the shift lever is moved to REVERSE (R) from another position.

When the whole screen changes to a rear view camera image during normal driving, switch to another setting.

Rear View can be displayed at all times (e.g. when monitoring an attached trailer, etc.) as a split screen where map information is par- tially displayed. Please beware that in this set- ting, camera image is not resized to fit, but that a portion of what is seen by the camera is not viewable.

Initially, this function is set to OFF.

1 Touch “CAMERA” in the SETUP menu.

2 Touch “CAMERA” to turn rear view cam- era setting on.

Touching “CAMERA” switches between “ON” and “OFF”.

Unless this setting is “ON”, you cannot switch to Rear View mode.

3 Touch “POLARITY” to select an appropri- ate setting for polarity.

Each time you touch “POLARITY” switches between the following polarity:

BATTERY — When the polarity of the con- nected lead is positive while the shift lever is in the REVERSE (R) position

GND — When the polarity of the connected lead is negative while the shift lever is in the REVERSE (R) position

Selecting the video of rear dis- play

When the navigation screen is displayed on front, you can select to show either the navigation screen or the selected source on the rear display.

The map screen navigation images output to the rear display differ from standard NTSC for- mat images. Therefore, their quality will be inferior to the images that appear on the front display.

1 Touch “REAR DISP” in the SETUP menu.

Each touch of the “REAR DISP” changes the settings as follows:

SOURCE — Display the video of the selected source on rear display

NAVI— Display the navigation video on rear display when the navigation screen is displayed on front

When selecting “SOURCE” in “REAR DISP”, when the selected source have not the video image, nothing is displayed on rear display.

When selecting Rear View in the map dis- play, nothing is displayed on the rear dis- play.

Switching the dimmer setting

To prevent the display from being too bright at night, the display is automatically dimmed when the vehicle’s headlights are turned on. Also, you can set the display to be dimmed as the sur- roundings become darker.

1 Touch “DIMMER” in the INITIAL menu.

Touching “DIMMER” switches between “AUTO” and “ILLUMI

When the setting is “ILLUMI”, the display is automatically dimmed when the vehicle’s headlights are turned on.

When the setting is “AUTO”, the display is dimmed as the surroundings become darker.

Covering the ambient light sensor while operating the navigation unit buttons can inadvertently cause the LCD screen to grow dark.

To correct this, set the “DIMMER” to “ILLUMI”.
