About this unit

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.

Press FUNCTION to select LOCAL.

Press FUNCTION until LOCAL appears in the

display.

When you find a frequency that you want to

store in memory press a PRESET TUNING but-

ton and hold until the preset number stops

flashing.

The number you have pressed will flash in the

PRESET NUMBER indicator and then remain lit.

The selected radio station frequency has been

stored in memory.

Press 5 to turn local seek tuning on.

Local seek sensitivity (e.g., LOCAL 2) appears in

the display.

Press 2 or 3 to set the sensitivity.

There are four levels of sensitivity for FM and

two levels for MW/LW:

FM: LOCAL 1—LOCAL 2—LOCAL 3—LOCAL 4

MW/LW: LOCAL 1—LOCAL 2

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.

• You can also use 5 and ∞ to recall radio sta-

tion frequencies assigned to PRESET TUNING

buttons.

When you want to return to normal seek

tuning, press ∞ to turn local seek tuning off.

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.

• 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.

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.
