when using the NAVI Source, the operation but-
tons are displayed on the screen and a few lim-

The accuracy of the GPS information depends on
how good the reception is. When the signals are
strong and reception is good, GPS can determine
latitude, longitude, and altitude for accurate posi-
tioning in three dimensions. But if signal quality
is poor, only two dimensions, latitude and longi-
tude, can be obtained and positioning errors are
somewhat greater.

The 3D Hybrid Sensor in the main unit also calcu-
lates your position. The current location is mea-
sured by detecting driving distance with the
speed pulse, the turning direction with the
Gyrosensor, and inclination of the road with the G
sensor.
Cautions when connecting a
Rear Display to the Front Dis-
play
The map screen navigation images output to the
rear display differ from standard NTSC format
images. Therefore, their quality will be inferior to
the images that appear on the front display.
The 3D Hybrid Sensor can even calculate
changes of altitude, and corrects for discrepan-
cies in the distance traveled caused by driving
along winding roads or up slopes. Also, the Navi-
gation System learns the driving conditions and
stores information in the memory; thus, as you
drive more, the precision of the positioning
becomes more accurate.
➲ Switching the rear display ➞ the manual for
the display you are combining.
Positioning Technology
The Navigation System accurately measures your
current location by combining the positioning by
GPS and by Dead Reckoning.
The method of positioning changes as follows
depending on whether the speed pulse of your
vehicle is detected or not:
Positioning by GPS
3D hybrid mode
This is active when the speed pulse is detected.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) uses a net-
work of satellites orbiting the Earth. Each of the
satellites, which orbit at a height of 68,900,000
feet (21,000 km), continually broadcasts radio
signals giving time and position information. This
ensures that signals from at least three can be
picked up from any open area on the earth’s sur-
face.
Inclination of a road can be detected.
61
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Simple hybrid mode
❒ If the ND-PG1 is used or if your vehicle is oper-
ating in Simple hybrid mode, the distance cal-
culation value cannot be replaced
automatically.
When the speed pulse is not detected, position-
ing is performed in this mode. Only horizontal
movement is detected, so it becomes less accu-
rate. Also, when the positioning by GPS is not
available, such as when your vehicle enters a
long tunnel, the discrepancy between your actual
and calculated position may become bigger.
Map matching
As mentioned, the GPS and dead reckoning sys-
tems used by this Navigation System are suscep-
tible to certain errors. Their calculations may, on
occasion, place you in a location on the map
where no road exists. In this situation, the pro-
cessing system understands that vehicles travel
only on roads, and can correct your position by
adjusting it to a nearby road. This is called map
matching.
❒ The speed pulse data comes from the speed
sensing circuit. The location of this speed
sensing circuit depends on your vehicle
model. In some cases, it is impossible to
make a connection to it, and in such a case
we recommend that the ND-PG1 speed pulse
generator (sold separately) be used.
How do GPS and dead reckoning work
together?
For maximum accuracy, your Navigation System
continually compares GPS data with your esti-
mated position as calculated from the data of 3D
Hybrid Sensor. However, if only the data from the
3D Hybrid Sensor is available for a long period,
positioning errors are gradually compounded
until the estimated position becomes unreliable.
For this reason, whenever GPS signals are avail-
able, they are matched with the data of the 3D
Hybrid Sensor and used to correct it for improved
accuracy.
With map matching
To ensure maximum accuracy, the dead reckon-
ing system learns with experience. By comparing
the position it estimates with your actual position
as obtained using GPS, it can correct for various
types of error, such as tire wear and the rolling
motion of your vehicle. As you drive, the dead
reckoning system gradually gathers more data,
learns more, and the accuracy of its estimates
gradually increases. So, after you have driven
some distance, you can expect your position as
shown on the map to show fewer errors.
Without map matching
Handling Large Errors
Positioning errors are kept to a minimum by com-
bining GPS, Dead Reckoning, and map match-
ing. However, in some situations, these functions
may not work properly, and the error may
become bigger.
❒ If you use chains on your wheels for winter
driving, or if you put on the spare wheel, the
errors may appear to suddenly increase
because of the increased wheel diameter. The
system detects the fact that the tire diameter
has changed, and automatically replaces the
value for calculating distance.
When the positioning by GPS is
impossible
• If signals cannot be received from more than
two GPS satellites, GPS positioning does not
take place.
• In some driving conditions, signals from GPS
satellites may not reach your vehicle. In this
62
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
case, it is impossible for the system to use GPS
positioning.
Vehicles that Cannot Obtain
Speed Pulse Data
❒ The speed pulse data comes from the speed
sensing circuit. The location of this speed
sensing circuit depends on your vehicle
model. In some cases, it is impossible to
make a connection to it, and in such a case
we recommend that the ND-PG1 speed pulse
generator (sold separately) be used.
In tunnels or enclosed parking garages
Conditions Likely to Cause
Noticeable Positioning Errors
For various reasons such as the state of the road
you are traveling on and the state of reception of
the GPS signal, the actual position of your vehicle
may differ from the position displayed on the map
screen.
Under elevated roads or similar
• If you make a shallow turn.
When driving among high buildings
• If there is a parallel road.
When driving through a dense forest or tall trees
• If a vehicle phone or cellular phone is used
near the GPS antenna, GPS reception may be
lost temporarily.
• Do not cover the GPS antenna with spray paint
or vehicle wax, because this may block the
reception of GPS signals. Snow buildup can
also degrade the signals, so keep the antenna
clear.
• If there is another road very nearby, such as in
the case of an elevated freeway.
❒ If, for any reason, GPS signals cannot be
received, learning and error correction are not
possible. If GPS positioning has been operat-
ing for only a short time, your vehicle’s actual
position and the current location mark on the
map may diverge considerably. Once GPS
reception is restored, accuracy will be recov-
ered.

Route Setting Information
Route search specifications
Your Navigation System sets a route to your desti-
nation by applying certain built-in rules to the
map data. This section provides some useful
information about how a route is set.
Calculate a route with the shortest travel time to
your destination as a priority.
Condition 2 :whether to use freeway or not
Avoid Freeway :
Calculate a route that avoids freeway. (A route
using the freeway may be set if your destination
is far away.)
• When a route is calculated, the route and
voice guidance for the route is automati-
cally set. Also, for day or time traffic regu-
lations, only information about traffic
regulations at the time when the route was
calculated is shown. One-way streets and
street closures may not be taken into con-
sideration. For example, if a street is open
during the morning only, but you arrive
later, it would be against the traffic regula-
tions so you cannot drive along the set
route. When driving, please follow the
actual traffic signs. Also, the system may
not know some traffic regulations.
• The system assumes the driver deviated either
intentionally or inadvertently from the route
and searches for another route (intelligent
rerouting). Depending on the situation, the
system may search a new route that does not
return to the original one.
• The calculated route is one example of the
route to your destination decided by the Navi-
gation System whilst taking the type of streets
or traffic regulations into account. It is not nec-
essarily an optimum route. (In some cases, you
may not be able to set the streets you want to
pass. If you want to pass a certain street, set
the way point on that street.)
• The route set by your Navigation System is
based on the assumption that the driver does
not know the area. Thus, the streets known to
local drivers, such as small streets or special
roads, may not be used for the set route.
• Some route options may become the same
route. If visiting points are set, or the route is
set by voice operation, only one route is calcu-
lated.
• Update Navigation DVDs are available for
purchase from your local Pioneer dealer
that includes the most current map and
point of interest information. Contact your
local Pioneer dealer for details.
About the route condition
When the calculation of only one route is set, you
can search a route option by combining the fol-
lowing conditions.
• Route setting is limited to the range of the disc
in use.
• When the destination is too far, there may be
instances where the route cannot be set. (If
you want to set a long-distance route going
across several areas, set way points along the
way.)
• During voice guidance, turns and junctions
from the freeway are announced. However, if
you pass junctions, turns, and other guide
points in rapid succession, some may not be
announced.
For example, when “Fastest” and “Avoid Free-
way” (“On”) are combined, the route, which
avoids freeway, and has the shortest travel time,
will be calculated and displayed on the screen.
Condition 1 :whether to put priority on the
distance, or time
• It is possible that guidance may direct you off a
freeway and then back on again.
Shortest :
Calculate a route with the shortest distance to
• In some cases, the set route may require you to
travel in the opposite direction to your current
heading. In such cases, you are instructed to
turn around, so please turn around safely by
following the actual traffic rules.
your destination as a priority.
73
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
• In some cases, guidance may direct you past
your destination and then indicate a U-turn to
get back to it.
• In some cases, a route may begin on the oppo-
site side of a railway or river from your actual
current location. If this happens, drive towards
your destination for a while, and try route cal-
culation again.
Roads not Used in Calculations
Even though displayed onscreen, the following
roads are not included in route calculations.
• Stubble Road
• Walk Way
• Public vehicle only
• Non routable road
• In the following cases, the route that passes
through an Area to Avoid may be set:
- when your vehicle is in the Area to Avoid
- when your destination or way points are in
the Area to Avoid
- when it is not possible to avoid doing so
• If a suitable route cannot be set in compliance
with the specified “Detour” distance, or your
preference to avoid freeways, toll roads, ferry
route, the setting or parameter may be
ignored.
Intersection enlargement
• When “Close-up of Junction” is on, the map
scale increases to show more detail as you
approach an intersection.
• If the intersection is approached in a gentle
curve, the map displayed may differ from the
actual road layout.
Tracking
• There may be instances when the starting
point and the destination point are not on the
highlighted route.
• The number of traffic circle exits displayed on
the screen may differ from the actual number
of roads.
• Your Navigation System marks your course on
the map in certain increments. This is called
tracking. It is handy when you want to check a
route traveled without guidance or if returning
along a complex route.
• A maximum of about 145 miles (230 km) is
marked and, as you travel beyond this limit,
tracking marks are erased in order from the
most distant. Tracking display shows about
100 miles tracking of your vehicle with white
dots.
Auto Reroute
• Auto Reroute function will work when you devi-
ate more than 0.01 mi (30 m) from your route.
• Auto Reroute function does not work in the fol-
lowing cases:
- when you are too close to your destination
- when your vehicle is not on a street
- when your vehicle is on a ferry
➲ Tracking can also be set for automatic erasing
whenever the Navigation System is switched
- when driving on a road inside a facility
- when driving on a traffic circle
- when driving on the routes are described in
“Roads not Used in Calculations”
Route highlighting
• Once set, the route is highlighted in bright
green or light blue on the map.
• The immediate vicinity of your starting point
and destination may not be highlighted, and
neither will areas with particularly complex
road layouts. Consequently, the route may
appear to be cut off on the display, but voice
guidance will continue.
