release the parking brake, and then (3) apply  
the parking brake again. Please keep the  
brake pedal pushed down before releasing the  
parking brake.

cal and horizontal) can be increased, however,  
by using BRIGHT to adjust the black density of  
the video. When using for the first time, adjust  
the black density in accordance with the view-  
ing angle (vertical and horizontal) to adjust for  
clear viewing. DIMMER can also be used to  
adjust the brightness of the LCD screen itself  
to suit your personal preference.  
The SAT RADIO READY mark printed on the  
front panel indicates that the Satellite Radio  
Tuner for Pioneer (i.e., XM tuner and Sirius sa-  
tellite tuner which are sold separately) can be  
controlled by this unit. Please inquire to your  
dealer or nearest authorized Pioneer service  
station regarding the satellite radio tuner that  
can be connected to this unit. For satellite  
radio tuner operation, please refer to the satel-  
lite radio tuner owners manual.

ental lock to your desired level.

Even if you change this setting, there is no  
output unless you turn the nonfading output  
or subwoofer output (refer to Using subwoofer  
output on page 32) in the audio menu on.  
If you change the subwoofer controller, sub-

put and RCA rear output) can be used for full-  
range speaker (FULL) or subwoofer (SUB. W)  
connection. If you switch the rear output set-  
ting to SUB. W, you can connect a rear speak-  
er lead directly to a subwoofer without using  
an auxiliary amp.  
Initially, the unit is set for rear full-range speak-  
er connection (FULL). When rear output is  
connected to full range speakers (when FULL  
is selected), you can connect the RCA sub-  
woofer output to a subwoofer. In this case, you  
can select whether to use the subwoofer con-  
trollers (low pass filter, phase) built-in SUB.W  
or the auxiliary FULL.  
Correcting distorted sound  
You can minimize distortion that may be  
caused by the equalizer curve settings.  
Setting an equalizer level high can cause dis-  
tortion. If high sound is crippled or distorted,  
try switching to LOW. Normally, leave the set-  
ting at HIGH to ensure quality sound.

on the extent and contour of space through  
which sound waves move and on how  
sounds bounce off the stage, walls, floors  
and ceilings. At a live performance you  
hear music in three stages: direct sound,  
early reflections, and late reflections, or re-  
verberations. Those factors are programed  
into the SFC circuitry to recreate the acous-  
tics of various performance settings.

ting will be replaced.  
Before operating the auto TA and EQ  
function  
!
Carry out auto TA and EQ in as quiet a  
place as possible, with the car engine and  
air conditioning switched off. Also cut  
power to car phones or portable telephones  
in the car, or remove them from the car be-  
fore carrying out auto TA and EQ. Sounds  
other than the measurement tone (sur-  
rounding sounds, engine sound, tele-  
phones ringing etc.) may prevent correct  
measurement of the car interior acoustic  
characteristics.  
!
Be sure to carry out auto TA and EQ using  
the supplied microphone. Using another  
microphone may prevent measurement, or  
result in incorrect measurement of the car  
interior acoustic characteristics.  
Carrying out auto TA and EQ  
Stop the car in a place that is as quiet  
as possible, close all doors, windows and  
the sun roof, and then turn the engine off.  
If the engine is left running, engine noise may  
prevent correct auto TA and EQ.

When front speaker is not connected, auto  
TA and EQ cannot be carried out.  
When this unit is connected to a power  
amp with input level control, auto TA and  
EQ may not be possible if you lower power  
amp input level. Set the power amps input  
level to the standard position.  
When this unit is connected to a power  
amp with an LPF, turn off the LPF on the  
power amp before carrying out auto TA and  
EQ. In addition, the cut-off frequency for  
built-in LPF of an active subwoofer should  
be set to the highest frequency.  
The time alignment value calculated by  
auto TA and EQ may differ from the actual  
distance in the following circumstances.  
However, the distance has been calculated  
by computer to be the optimum delay to  
give accurate results for the circum-  
stances, so please continue to use this  
value.

Fix the supplied microphone in the cen-  
ter of the headrest of the drivers seat, fa-  
cing forward, using the belt (sold  
separately).  
The auto TA and EQ may differ depending on  
where you place the microphone. If desired,  
place the microphone on the front passenger  
seat to carry out auto TA and EQ.

blems on this unit. In some cases, a Dual  
Disc may become stuck in the disc loading  
slot and will not eject. To prevent this, we  
recommend you refrain from using Dual  
Disc with this unit.

Do not push the LCD screen with much  
force as this may scratch it.  
!
When wiping the screen, take care not to  
scratch the surface. Do not use harsh or  
abrasive chemical cleaners.  
Be careful not to place anything between  
the display and the main body when the  
display is opening or closing. If an object  
gets between the display and main body,  
the display may stop working.  
Be careful of fingers, long hair, and loose  
articles of clothing which could possibly  
get caught between the display and the  
main body and cause serious injury.  
Small fluorescent tube  
!
!
A small fluorescent tube is used inside the  
display to illuminate the LCD screen.  
The fluorescent tube should last for ap-  
proximately 10 000 hours, depending on  
operating conditions. (Using the display  
at low temperatures reduces the service  
life of the fluorescent tube.)

If the display is near the vent of an air con-  
ditioner when it is opened, make sure that  
air from the air conditioner is not blowing  
on it. Heat from the heater may damage  
the LCD screen, and cool air from the cool-  
er may cause moisture to form inside the  
display resulting in possible damage. Also,  
if the display is cooled down by the cooler,  
the screen may become dark, or the life  
span of the small fluorescent tube used in-  
side the display may be shortened.  
When the fluorescent tube reaches the  
end of its useful life, the screen will be  
dark and the image will no longer be  
projected. If this happens, consult your  
dealer or the nearest authorized  
PIONEER Service Station.  
!
!
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 display.  
At low temperatures, the LCD screen may  
be dark for a while after the power is turned  
on.

!
The LCD screen will be difficult to see if it is  
exposed to direct sunlight.  
When using a portable phone, keep the an-  
tenna of the portable phone away from the

This stands for Digital Theater Systems. DTS is  
a surround system delivering multi-channel  
audio from up to 6 independent channels.  
Aspect ratio  
This is the width-to-height ratio of a TV screen.  
A regular display has an aspect ratio of 4:3.  
Wide screen displays have an aspect ratio of  
16:9, providing a bigger picture for exceptional  
presence and atmosphere.  
Bit rate  
This expresses data volume per second, or bps  
(bits per second) units. The higher the rate,  
the more information is available to reproduce  
the sound. Using the same encoding method  
(such as MP3), the higher the rate, the better  
the sound.  
ID3 tag  
This is a method of embedding track-related  
information in an MP3 file. This embedded in-  
formation can include the track title, the ar-  
tists name, the album title, the music genre,  
the year of production, comments and other  
data. The contents can be freely edited using  
software with ID3 Tag editing functions.  
Although the tags are restricted as to the num-  
ber of characters, the information can be  
viewed when the track is played back.

Dolby Digital provides multi-channel audio  
from up to 5.1 independent channels. This is  
the same as the Dolby Digital surround sound  
system used in theaters.  
Level 1:  
The file name is in 8.3 format (the name con-  
sists of up to 8 characters, half-byte English  
capital letters and half-byte numerals and the  
_sign, with a file-extension of three charac-  
ters).  
Level 2:  
Dolby Pro Logic II  
The file name can have up to 31 characters (in-  
cluding the separation mark .and a file ex-  
tension). Each folder contains less than 8  
hierarchies.  
Extended formats  
Joliet:  
Dolby Pro Logic II can create five full-band-  
width output channels from two-channel  
sources. This new technology enables a dis-  
crete 5-channel playback with 2 front chan-  
nels, 1 center channel, and 2 rear channels. A  
music mode is also available for 2-channel  
sources in addition to the movie mode.  
File names can have up to 64 characters.  
Romeo:  
File names can have up to 128 characters.

Additional Information  
Linear PCM (LPCM)/Pulse code  
modulation  
When recording data on a CD-ROM, CD-R or  
CD-RW, etc., all data from beginning to end is  
treated as a single unit or session. Multi-ses-  
sion is a method of recording more than 2 ses-  
sions on one disc.  
This stands for linear pulse code modulation,  
which is the signal recording system used for  
music CDs and DVDs. Generally, DVDs are re-  
corded with higher sampling frequency and  
bit rate than CDs. Therefore, DVDs can provide  
higher sound quality.  
Multi-subtitle  
Subtitles in up to 32 languages can be re-  
corded on a single DVD, letting you choose as  
desired.  
m3u  
Playlists created using the WINAMPsoft-  
ware have a playlist file extension (.m3u).  
Optical digital output/input  
By transmitting and receiving audio signals in  
a digital signal format, the chance of sonic  
quality deteriorating in the course of transmis-  
sion is minimized. An optical digital output/  
input is designed to transmit and receive digi-  
tal signals optically.  
MP3  
MP3 is short for MPEG Audio Layer 3. It is an  
audio compression standard set by a working  
group (MPEG) of the ISO (International Stan-  
dards Organization). MP3 is able to compress  
audio data to about 1/10th the level of a con-  
ventional disc.  
Packet write  
This is a general term for a method of writing  
on CD-R, etc., at the time required for a file,  
just as is done with files on floppy or hard  
discs.  
MPEG  
This stands for Moving Pictures Experts  
Group, and is an international video image  
compression standard. Some DVDs feature di-  
gital audio compressed and recorded using  
this system.  
Parental lock  
Some DVD video discs with violent or adult-or-  
iented scenes feature parental lock which pre-  
vents children from viewing such scenes. With  
this kind of disc, if you set the units parental  
lock level, playback of scenes inappropriate for  
children will be disabled, or these scenes will  
be skipped.  
Multi-angle  
With regular TV programs, although multiple  
cameras are used to simultaneously shoot  
scenes, only images from one camera at a  
time are transmitted to your TV. Some DVDs  
feature scenes shot from multiple angles, let-  
ting you choose your viewing angle as desired.  
Playback control (PBC)  
This is a playback control signal recorded on  
Video CDs (Version 2.0). Using menu displays  
provided by Video CDs with PBC lets you enjoy  
playback of simple interactive software and  
software with search functions. You can also  
enjoy viewing high- and standard-resolution  
still images.  
Multi-audio (Multilingual dialog)  
Some DVDs feature dialog recorded in multi-  
ple languages. Dialog in up to 8 languages  
can be recorded on a single disc, letting you  
choose as desired.  
Multi-session  
Multi-session is a recording method that al-  
lows additional data to be recorded later.

Appendix  
Additional Information  
Region number  
DVD players and DVD discs feature region  
numbers indicating the area in which they  
were purchased. Playback of a DVD is not pos-  
sible unless it features the same region num-  
ber as the DVD player. This units region  
number is displayed on the bottom of the unit.  
Title  
DVD video discs have high data capacity, en-  
abling recording of multiple movies on a sin-  
gle disc. If, for example, one disc contains  
three separate movies, they are divided into  
title 1, title 2 and title 3. This lets you enjoy the  
convenience of title search and other func-  
tions.  
VBR  
VBR is short for variable bit rate. Generally  
speaking CBR (constant bit rate) is more  
widely used. But by flexibly adjusting the bit  
rate according to the needs of audio compres-  
sion, it is possible to achieve compression-  
priority sound quality.  
WMA  
WMA is short for Windows MediaAudio  
and refers to an audio compression technol-  
ogy that is developed by Microsoft  
Corporation. WMA data can be encoded by  
using Windows Media Player version 7 or  
later.  
Windows Media and the Windows logo are tra-  
demarks or registered trademarks of Microsoft
