WARNING
! To avoid the risk of accident and the potential
violation of applicable laws, the front DVD or
TV (sold separately) feature should never be
used while the vehicle is being driven. Also,
rear displays should not be in a location
where they are visibly distracting to the driver.
! In some countries or states the viewing of
images on a display inside a vehicle even by
persons other than the driver may be illegal.
Where such regulations apply, they must be
obeyed and this unit’s DVD features should
not be used.
CAUTION
! PIONEER does not recommend that you in-
stall or service your display unit yourself. In-
stalling or servicing the product may expose
you to risk of electric shock or other hazards.
Refer all installation and servicing of your dis-
play unit to authorized Pioneer service person-
nel.
! Secure all wiring with cable clamps or electri-
cal tape. Do not allow any bare wiring to re-
main exposed.
! Do not drill a hole into the engine compart-
ment to connect the yellow cable of the dis-
play unit to the vehicle battery. Engine
vibration may eventually cause the insulation
to fail at the point where the wire passes from
the passenger compartment into the engine
compartment. Take extra care in securing the
wire at this point.
! It is extremely dangerous to allow the display
lead to become wound around the steering
column or gearshift. Be sure to install the dis-
play in such a way that it will not obstruct driv-
ing.
! Make sure that wires will not interfere with
moving parts of the vehicle, such as the gear-
shift, parking brake or seat sliding mechan-
ism.
! Do not shorten any cables. If you do, the pro-
tection circuit may fail to work properly.
Notes
! This unit cannot be installed in a vehicle with-
out ACC (accessory) position on the ignition
switch.

following could result in fire or malfunction.
— Vehicles with a 12-volt battery and negative
grounding.
— Speakers with 50 W (output value) and 4
ohm to 8 ohm (impedance value).
! To prevent a short-circuit, overheating or mal-
function, be sure to follow the directions
below.
— Disconnect the negative terminal of the
battery before installation.
— Secure the wiring with cable clamps or ad-
hesive tape. Wrap adhesive tape around
wiring that comes into contact with metal
parts to protect the wiring.
— Place all cables away from moving parts,
such as the gear shift and seat rails.

such as near the heater outlet.
— Do not connect the yellow cable to the bat-
tery by passing it through the hole to the
engine compartment.
— Cover any disconnected cable connectors
with insulating tape.
— Do not shorten any cables.
— Never cut the insulation of the power cable
of this unit in order to share the power

Connections
! When this unit is on, control signals are sent
through the blue/white cable. Connect this
cable to the system remote control of an exter-
nal power amp or the vehicle’s auto-antenna
relay control terminal (max. 300 mA 12 V DC).
If the vehicle is equipped with a glass anten-
na, connect it to the antenna booster power
supply terminal.
! Never connect the blue/white cable to the
power terminal of an external power amp.
Also, never connect it to the power terminal of
the auto antenna. Doing so may result in bat-
tery drain or a malfunction.
! The black cable is ground. Ground cables for
this unit and other equipment (especially,
high-current products such as power amps)
must be wired separately. If they are not, an
accidental detachment may result in a fire or
malfunction.
