About this unit
01
In case of trouble
The tuner frequencies on this unit are allocated
for use in Europe, Asia, the Middle East, Africa
and Oceania. Use in other areas may result in
improper reception. The RDS function operates
only in areas with FM stations broadcasting
RDS signals.
Should this product fail to operate properly,
contact your dealer or nearest authorized
Pioneer Service Station.
Protecting your unit from theft
The front panel can be detached from the head
unit and stored in the protective case provided
to discourage theft.
About this manual
This unit features a number of sophisticated
functions ensuring superior reception and oper-
ation. All the functions have been designed for
the easiest possible use, but many are not self-
explanatory. This operation manual will help you
benefit fully from this product’s potential and to
maximize your listening enjoyment.
We recommend that you familiarize yourself
with the functions and their operation by read-
ing through the manual before you begin using
this unit. It is especially important that you read
and observe precautions on this page and in
other sections.
• If the front panel is not detached from the
head unit within five seconds of turning off the
ignition, a warning tone will sound.
• You can turn off the warning tone. See
Switching the warning tone on page 34.
Important
• Never use force or grip the display and the
buttons tightly when removing or attaching.
• Avoid subjecting the front panel to excessive
shocks.
• Keep the front panel out of direct sunlight and
high temperatures.
This manual explains head unit operation. You
can perform the same operations with the steer-
ing remote control (sold separately).
Precautions
• Keep this manual handy as a reference for
operating procedures and precautions.
• Always keep the volume low enough so you
can hear sounds outside of the car.
• Protect this product from moisture.
• If the battery is disconnected or discharged,
the preset memory will be erased and must be
reprogrammed.

Storing and recalling broadcast
frequencies
Tuning in strong signals
Local seek tuning lets you tune in only those
radio stations with sufficiently strong signals for
good reception.
If you press any of the PRESET TUNING buttons
you can easily store up to six broadcast frequen-
cies for later recall with the touch of a button.
1

The next time you press the same PRESET TUN-
ING button the radio station frequency is
recalled from memory.
The LOCAL 4 setting allows reception of only the
strongest stations, while lower settings let you
receive progressively weaker stations.
Notes
• Up to 18 FM stations, 6 for each of the three
FM bands, and 6 MW/LW stations can be
stored in memory.

Switching the RDS display
Notes
When you tune in a RDS station its program
service name is displayed. If you want to know
the frequency you can.
• Only RDS stations are tuned in during seek
tuning or BSM when AF is on.
• When you recall a preset station, the tuner
may update the preset station with a new
frequency from the station’s AF list. (This is
only available when using presets on the F2 or
F3 band.) No preset number appears on the
display if the RDS data for the station received
differs from that for the originally stored sta-
tion.
• Sound may be temporarily interrupted by
another program during a AF frequency
search.
• When the tuner is tuned to a non-RDS station
the AF indicator flashes.
Press DISPLAY.

PTY (program type ID code) information is listed
on page 17.
• PTY information and the frequency of the
current station appears on the display for eight
seconds.
• If a PTY code of zero is received from a station,
NONE is displayed. This indicates that the sta-
tion has not defined its program contents.
• If the signal is too weak for this unit to pick up
the PTY code, NO PTY is displayed.
• AF can be switched on or off independently
for each FM band.
Using PI seek
If the unit fails to find a suitable alternative fre-
quency, or if you are listening to a broadcast
and the reception becomes weak, the unit will
automatically search for a different station with
the same programming. During the search, PI
SEEK is displayed and the output is muted. The
muting is discontinued after completion of the
PI seek, whether or not a different station is
found.
Selecting alternative frequencies
If you are listening to a broadcast and the recep-
tion becomes weak or there are other problems,
the unit will automatically search for a different
station in the same network which is broadcast-
ing a stronger signal.
• AF is on as a default.

• The default setting for auto PI seek is off. See
Switching auto PI seek on page 34.
TA (traffic announcement standby) lets you
receive traffic announcements automatically,

Using PTY functions
Notes
• You can also turn the TA function on or off by
pressing FUNCTION.
You can tune in a station by using PTY informa-
tion.
• The system switches back to the original
source following traffic announcement recep-
tion.
Using news program interruption
• TA can be activated from sources other than
the tuner if the tuner was last set to the FM
band but not if it was last set to the MW/LW
band.
• If the tuner was last set to FM, turning on TA
lets you operate other tuning functions while
listening to sources other than the tuner.
• Only TP and enhanced other network’s TP
stations are tuned in during seek tuning or
BSM when TA is on.
When a news program is broadcast from a PTY
code news station the unit can switch from any
station to the news broadcast station. When the
news program ends, reception of the previous
program resumes.
Press TA and hold to turn on news program
interruption.
Press TA until NEWS appears in the display.
• To turn off news program interruption, press
TA and hold until NEWS disappears from the
display.
Responding to the TP alarm
When a TP or enhanced other network’s TP
station is lost due to a weak signal the TP indi-
cator is extinguished and a series of short
beeps, about five seconds long, sound to
remind you to select another TP or enhanced
other network‘s TP station.
Note
• You can also turn on or off news program
interruption by pressing FUNCTION.
Receiving PTY alarm broadcasts
When listening to the tuner, tune in another
TP or enhanced other network’s TP station.
• When listening to sources other than the
tuner the unit will automatically seek out a TP
station with the strongest signal after a 10- or
30-second delay. The delay is 10 seconds if TA is
on and 30 seconds if TA and AF are on.
PTY alarm is a special PTY code for announce-
ments regarding emergencies such as natural
disasters. When the tuner receives the radio
alarm code, ALARM appears on the display and
the volume adjusts to the TA volume. When the
station stops broadcasting the emergency
announcement, the system returns to the previ-
ous source.
• An emergency announcement can be can-
celled by pressing TA.
