This unit is for vehicles with a 12-volt battery and negative grounding. Before installing it in a  
recreational vehicle, truck, or bus, check the battery voltage.  
To avoid shorts in the electrical system, be sure to disconnect the battery cable before beginning  
installation.  
Refer to the owner’s manual for details on connecting the power amp and other units, then make  
connections correctly.  
Secure the wiring with cable clamps or adhesive tape. To protect the wiring, wrap adhesive tape  
around them where they lie against metal parts.  
Route and secure all wiring so it cannot touch any moving parts, such as the gear shift, handbrake,  
and seat rails. Do not route wiring in places that get hot, such as near the heater outlet. If the insulation  
of the wiring melts or gets torn, there is a danger of the wiring short-circuiting to the vehicle body.  
Don’t pass the yellow lead through a hole into the engine compartment to connect to the battery. This  
will damage the lead insulation and cause a very dangerous short.  
Do not shorten any leads. If you do, the protection circuit may fail to work when it should.  
Never feed power to other equipment by cutting the insulation of the power supply lead of the unit  
and tapping into the lead. The current capacity of the lead will be exceeded, causing overheating.  
When replacing fuse, be sure to use only fuse of the rating prescribed on the fuse holder.  
Since a unique BPTL circuit is employed, never wire so the speaker leads are directly grounded or  
the left and right speaker leads are common.  
The black lead is ground. Please ground this lead separately from the ground of high-current products  
such as power amps.  
If you ground the products together and the ground becomes detached, there is a risk of damage to the  
products or fire.  
If the RCA pin jack on the unit will not be used, do not remove the caps attached to the end of the  
connector.  
Speakers connected to this unit must be high-power types with minimum rating of 45 W and  
impedance of 4 to 8 ohms. Connecting speakers with output and/or impedance values other than those  
noted here may result in the speakers catching fire, emitting smoke, or becoming damaged.  
When this product’s source is switched ON, a control signal is output through the blue/white lead.  
Connect to an external power amp’s system remote control or the car’s Auto-antenna relay control  
terminal (max. 300 mA 12 V DC). If the car features a glass antenna, connect to the antenna booster  
power supply terminal.  
When an external power amp is being used with this system, be sure not to connect the blue/white  
lead to the amp’s power terminal. Likewise, do not connect the blue/white lead to the power terminal  
of the auto-antenna. Such connection could cause excessive current drain and malfunction.  
To avoid short-circuiting, cover the disconnected lead with insulating tape. Especially, insulate the  
unused speaker leads without fail. There is a possibility of short-circuiting if the leads are not  
insulated.  
To prevent incorrect connection, the input side of the IP-BUS connector is blue, and the output side  
is black. Connect the connectors of the same colors correctly.  
If this unit is installed in a vehicle that does not have an ACC (accessory) position on the ignition  
switch, the red lead of the unit should be connected to a terminal coupled with ignition switch ON/  
OFF operations. If this is not done, the vehicle battery may be drained when you are away from the  
vehicle for several hours.  
ACC position  
No ACC position  
Cords for this product and those for other products may be different colors even if they have  
the same function. When connecting this product to another product, refer to the supplied  
Installation manuals of both products and connect cords that have the same function.

What is RDS?  
RDS (Radio Data System) is a system for transmitting data along with FM programs. This data,  
which is inaudible, provides a variety of features such as: program service name, program type  
display, traffic announcement standby, automatic tuning and program type tuning, intended to  
aid radio listeners in tuning to a desired station.  
1RWHꢃ  
RDS service may not be provided by all stations.  
RDS functions, like AF (Alternative Frequencies search) and TA (Traffic Announcement standby),  
are only active when your radio is tuned to RDS stations.  
Program Service Name Display  
With this function, the names of networks/stations providing RDS services replace the  
frequency on the display a few seconds after they are tuned in.

Each press of the DISPLAY button selects the display in the following order:  
Frequency 3 Program Service Name  
1RWHꢃ  
After switching displays, if you do not perform an operation within 8 seconds, the Program Service  
Name is automatically displayed.  
PTY Information  
PTY (Program Type ID code) information for the currently tuned station appears on the display  
for 8 seconds. The information is correlated with the list in the section “PTY List” on page 44.  
1RWHꢃ  
If a PTY code of zero is received from a station, “None” will be displayed. This indicates that the  
station has not defined its program contents.  
Frequency  
The frequency of the current station appears on the display for 8 seconds.  
ꢁꢆ  
8VLQJꢀ5'6ꢀ)XQFWLRQV  
AF Function (AlternativeFrequency)  
The AF (Alternative Frequencies search) function is used to search for other frequencies in the  
same network as the currently tuned station. It automatically retunes the receiver to another  
frequency in the network which is broadcasting a stronger signal when there are problems with  
reception of the currently tuned station or better reception is possible on a different frequency.  
1RWHꢃ  
AF tunes the receiver only to RDS stations when you use Seek tuning or BSM Auto Memory with the  
“AF” indicator 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 FM-1 and FM-2 bands.) No  
preset number appears on the display if the RDS data for the station received differs from that for the  
originally stored station.  
Sound may be temporarily interrupted by another program during an AF frequency search.  
When the tuner is tuned to a non-RDS station, the “AF” indicator flashes.  
AF can be switched ON or OFF independently for each FM band.  
Activating/Deactivating the AF Function  
AF is set to ON by default.

PI Seek Function  
The tuner searches for another frequency broadcasting the same programming. “PI Seek”  
appears on the display and the radio volume is muted during a PI Seek. The muting is  
discontinued after completion of the PI Seek, whether or not the PI seek has succeeded. If the  
PI Seek is unsuccessful, the tuner returns to the previous frequency.  
PI Seek  
If the tuner fails to locate a suitable alternative frequency or if the broadcasting signal is too  
weak for proper reception, the PI Seek will automatically start.  
Auto PI Seek (for preset station)  
When preset stations cannot be recalled, as when traveling long distances, the product can be  
set to perform PI Seek also during preset recall.  
The default setting for Auto PI Seek is OFF.  
1RWHꢃ  
Refer to “Initial Setting” for details on how to switch Auto PI Seek ON/OFF.  
Regional Function (Regional)  
When AF is used to retune the tuner automatically, the Regional function limits the selection  
to stations broadcasting regional programs.  
1RWHꢃ  
Regional programming and regional networks are organized differently depending on the country  
(i.e., they may change according to the hour, state or broadcast area).  
The preset number may disappear on the display if the tuner tunes in a regional station which differs  
from the originally set station.  
“REG” is displayed if you activate the Regional function when the Function Menu is canceled.  
Activating the Regional Function  
The Regional function can be turned ON independently for each FM band.

In case that the battery is disconnected or the RESET button is pressed, it may be necessary to  
reprogram the RFP Alert Menu, otherwise this setting needs to be done only once.  
When the RFP Alert is armed, you cannot disarm it by pressing the RESET button.  
Operation of “RFP Alert”  
Providing the installation and setting of the “RFP Alert Setting Menu” has been performed  
correctly, operation of the “RFP Alert” is very simple.  
Arming Alert  
To arm your Alert simply turn off the ignition and detach the front panel, as described on page  
64. After detaching the front panel the “RFP Alert” will automatically arm itself after 30  
seconds, providing all of the doors are closed. If after 30 seconds, a door still remains open the  
RFP Alert will not arm until the last door has been closed. After closing all of the doors, ensure  
that they are securely locked. The LED indicator on the head unit will flash as a visual  
deterrent. Your vehicle is now protected by your “RFP Alert”.  
Disarming Alert  
Upon entering your vehicle, and within the “Entry Delay Time” set within the “RFP Alert  
Menu”, attach your Pioneer Front Panel as described on page 64.  
If you have forgotten your removable front panel, simply insert the ignition key in the ignition  
and turn the key from “OFF” to “ON” within the “Entry Delay Time”.  
ꢆꢂ  
Entry Detection  
If the “RFP Alert” was not disarmed in accordance with “Disarming Alert”, the “RFP Alert”  
will be triggered. The “RFP Alert” will sound for 60 seconds and will repeat 5 times if any door  
is left open or reopened. After the fifth time the “RFP Alert” will reset to prevent continuous  
sounding and prevent your battery from discharging.  
3UHFDXWLRQꢃ  
Upon returning to your vehicle and before opening any doors, check to see if the LED  
indicator is still flashing. If the LED is no longer flashing, it indicates that the Alert has  
sounded. Disarming, as described above, is still necessary.
