Troubleshooting

If you have problems operating your navigation system, refer to this section. The most common
problems are listed below, along with likely causes and solutions. While this list is not comprehen-
sive, it should answer your most common problems. If a solution to your problem cannot be
found here, contact your dealer or the nearest authorised Pioneer service facility.

Problems with the navigation screen

Symptom

Cause

Action (Reference)

rectly connected.

Confirm once more that all connections are
correct.

The fuse (in the vehicle power char-
ger) is blown.

Rectify the reason for the fuse blowing, then

rect fuse with the same rating.

You cannot position your vehicle
on the map without a significant
positioning error.

Signal quality from the GPS satel-
lites is poor causing reduced posi-
tioning accuracy. Such a loss of
signal quality may occur for the fol-
lowing reasons:
• This product is in an unsuitable lo-
cation.
• Obstacles are blocking signals
from the satellites.
• The position of satellites relative to
your vehicle is inadequate.
• Signals from the GPS satellites
have been modified to reduce accu-
racy. (GPS satellites are operated by
the US Department of Defense, and
the US government reserves the
right to distort positioning data for
military reasons. This may lead to
greater positioning errors.)
• If a mobile phone is used near the
GPS module, GPS reception may be
lost temporarily.

Check the GPS signal reception, the position
of this product and the topside clearance if
necessary, or continue driving until reception
improves.

You cannot position your vehicle
on the map without a significant
positioning error.

Something covers this product

’s

topside.

Do not cover this product with spray paint or
vehicle wax, because this may block the re-
ception of GPS signals.

The navigation system may not be
mounted securely in your vehicle.

Check that the navigation system is securely
mounted and, if necessary, consult the dealer
that installed the system.
