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. If a solution to your problem
cannot be found here, contact your dealer or the nearest authorised Pioneer service facility.
Problems with the navigation screen
Symptom
The power doesn't turn on. The
navigation system doesn't oper-
ate.
The detachable device does not
turn on.
When you use the detachable
device removed from the head
unit, the battery runs out more
rapidly than before.
You cannot position your vehicle
on the map without a significant
positioning error.

Engb
Cause
Leads and connectors are incor-
rectly connected.
The fuse is blown.
Noise and other factors are causing
the built-in microprocessor to oper-
ate incorrectly.
The battery of the detachable device
is run down.
There's a possibility a new battery is
needed.
The GPS aerial is in an unsuitable
location.
Obstacles are blocking signals from
the satellites.
The position of satellites relative to
your vehicle is inadequate.
Signals from the GPS satellites have
been modified to reduce accuracy.
(GPS satellites are operated by the
US Department of Defense, and the
US government reserves the right to
distort positioning data for military
reasons. This may lead to greater
positioning errors.)
Action (Reference)
Confirm once more that all connections are
correct.
Rectify the reason for the fuse blowing, then
replace the fuse. Be very sure to install a cor-
rect fuse with the same rating.
Press the RESET button. (Page 8)
Charge the battery.
Contact the nearest authorised Pioneer Ser-
vice Station.
The quality of signals from the GPS satellites
is poor, causing reduced positioning accu-
racy. Check the GPS signal reception and the
position of the GPS aerial if necessary.
