Using the Navigation System Correctly

WARNING

!If liquid or foreign matter should get inside this navigation system, park your vehicle to safe place and turn the ignition switch off (ACC OFF) immediately and consult your deal- er or the nearest authorized Pioneer Service Station. Do not use the navigation system in this condition because doing so may result in a fire, electric shock, or other failure.

!If you notice smoke, a strange noise or smell from the navigation system, or any other ab- normal signs on the LCD screen, turn off the power immediately and consult your dealer or the nearest authorized Pioneer Service Sta- tion. Using this navigation system in this con- dition may result in permanent damage to the system.

!Do not disassemble or modify this navigation system, as there are high-voltage components inside which may cause an electric shock. Be sure to consult your dealer or the nearest authorized Pioneer Service Station for internal inspection, adjustments or repairs.

Handling the LCD screen

!When the LCD screen is subjected to direct sunlight for a long period of time, it will be- come very hot, resulting in possible da- mage to the LCD screen. When not using this navigation system, avoid exposing it to direct sunlight as much as possible.

!The LCD screen should be used within the temperature ranges shown below:

Operating temperature range: +14 °F to +122 °F

Storage temperature range: -4 °F to +176 °F

!Do not use the LCD screen at temperatures higher or lower than the operating tem- perature range because the LCD screen may not operate normally and the LCD screen can be damaged.

!The LCD screen is exposed in order to in- crease its visibility within the vehicle. Please do not press strongly on it as this may damage it.

!Do not push the LCD screen with excessive force as this may scratch it.

!Never touch the LCD screen with anything besides your finger when operating the Touch Panel functions. The LCD screen can scratch easily. (The stylus is supplied for special calibrations. Do not use the stylus for normal operation.)

Liquid crystal display (LCD) screen

!If the LCD screen is near the vent of an air conditioner, make sure that air from the air conditioner is not blowing on it. Heat from the heater may break the LCD screen, and cool air from the cooler may cause moist- ure to form inside the navigation unit, re- sulting in possible damage. Also, if the LCD screen is cooled down by the air con- ditioner, the LCD screen may become dark or the life span of the small fluorescent tube used in the LCD screen may be shor- tened.

!Small black dots or white dots (bright dots) may appear on the LCD screen. These are due to the characteristics of the LCD screen and do not indicate a problem with the LCD screen.

!At low temperatures, the LCD screen may be dark for a while after the power is turned on.
