Connecting the System
Precautions before connecting the system
WARNING
Pioneer does not recommend that you install your navigation system yourself. We recom- mend that only authorized Pioneer service personnel, who have special training and ex- perience in mobile electronics, set up and in- stall this product. NEVER SERVICE THIS PRODUCT YOURSELF. Installing or servi- cing this product 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.
CAUTION
!If you decide to perform the installation yourself, and have special training and ex- perience in the mobile electronics instal- lations, 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 wir- ing 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 com- partment into the engine compartment. If the yellow lead’s insulation tears as a re- sult of contact with metal parts,
!It is extremely dangerous to allow the cables to become wound around the steer- ing column or shift lever. Be sure to install this product, its cables, and wiring away in such a way that they will not obstruct or hinder driving.

03
! Make sure that the cables and wires are | English |
| |
routed and secured so they will not inter- |
|
fere with or become caught in any of the |
|
vehicle’s moving parts, especially the |
|
steering wheel, shift lever, parking brake, |
|
sliding seat tracks, doors, or any of the ve- |
|
hicle’s controls. |
|
! Do not route wires where they will be ex- |
|
posed to high temperatures. If the insula- |
|
tion 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 malfunction. |
|
! Do not shorten any leads. If you do, the |
|
protection circuit (fuse holder, fuse resis- |
|
tor or filter, etc.) may fail to work properly. |
|
! Never feed power to other electronic pro- |
|
ducts by cutting the insulation of the |
|
power supply lead of the navigation sys- |
|
tem and tapping into the lead. The current |
|
capacity of the lead will be exceeded, |
|
causing overheating. |
|
! The black lead is ground. Please ground |
|
this lead separately from the ground of |
|
| |
amps. Do not ground more than one pro- |
|
duct together with the ground from an- |
|
other product. For example, you must |
|
separately ground any amp unit away |
|
from the ground of this navigation sys- |
|
tem. Connecting grounds together can |
|
cause a fire and/or damage the products if |
|
their grounds became detached. |
