glossary navigation 3d gyro sensor the 3d gyro sensor allows the navigation system to take measurements in three directions ­ height up/down speed distance and direction left/right ­ calculate inclines and detect special road features such as tunnels to pinpoint the driving position with utmost accuracy touch panel ready pioneer navigation units with this logo were designed to be used with a pioneer touch panel display the gui graphical user interface works seamlessly with the display for fast and intuitive operation every function is immediately accessible by pressing the appropriate on-screen button or icon additional navigation capabilities and functions are available only when a touch panel display is used av units and headunits l sources 3d gyro sensor measurement system tv

b a-b with normal gyro sensor a radio tuner arc 5 the automatic reception control system ­ used in all pioneer headunits ­ increases sensitivity and improves fm reception with 3d gyro sensor memory navi using the avic-x1bt s built-in memory navi capacity of 64 mb could not be any more convenient simply insert the map navigation disc search for a destination choose a route and the map data for the route with surrounding corridor will be loaded automatically into the avic-x1bt s memory no user intervention needed it can hold over 400 km of routing this figure may vary depending on the complexity of the map information during downloading you can already start driving to the destination guided by navigation instructions once the route is loaded the dvd map disc can be exchanged for a single cd mp3 cd or dvd-video disc if the journey is longer than the available memory capacity the system will request you to reinsert the navigation disc to load an extra stretch of map data the avic-x1bt is so clever it remembers exactly where the cd or dvd was removed and plays again from where it left off half of the memory navi s 64 mb capacity is dedicated to storing the corridor around the route approximately 10 km radius to the destination if you leave the calculated route the system will guide you back to the original path all in a matter of seconds now the memory area can be saved not only as a 15 km2 map area but also as a corridor ideal for commuters this new feature lets the driver set and store a two-way route e.g from home to work and back as the memory area the avic-x1bt then automatically provides limited traffic information along this route so that the navigation disc does not have to be re-inserted every time the user leaves his house bsm best stations memory an ideal tuner feature for travelling at the touch of a button bsm scans the radio band finds and automatically presets the 6 strongest stations d4q d4q is pioneer s digital am/fm tuner it uses a digital processing technique which improves the audio performance and selectivity of the receiver allowing you to enjoy high-quality radio without interference d4q the d4q tuner ensures improved fm stereo reception and separation it helps to eliminate unwanted interference from external car-related noises when listening to am frequency channels it also reinforces noise reduction in weak signal areas and raises am sensitivity ­ for a refined and superior radio performance pns pulse noise suppressor `pulse noise is unwanted noise generated by electrical motors it can come from the car s engine or through the antenna even from another car pns provides a cleaner sound by reducing noise that interferes with the fm signal radio text by pressing the radio text button text messages sent as rds data are received these messages scroll across the screen for convenient viewing and can be stored in memory for review memory navi typical guidance/play mode rds memory navi typical guidance play mode pioneer has incorporated the non interruption philosophy into the intelligent rds tuner for improved nf network following thanks to the sophisticated algorithms the different programme alternative frequencies are screened out and continuous uninterrupted listening pleasure is achieved insert disc to load route and corridor remove disc and enjoy cd or dvd insert disc again to load second part of route and corridor remove disc and enjoy cd or dvd dvd auto play poi point of interest dvd cyber navi places the world s locations at your fingertips you can search for a poi by name category or via destination search according to city this is helpful when trying to locate a restaurant store or even golf course without an immediate address at hand a convenient aspect when on a long trip vicinity search displays specific in-the-area pois such as hotels and petrol stations you will appreciate the simplicity accuracy and thorough coverage of both search features especially since the avic-x1bt and avic-s1 cover over 1.78 million pois covering more than 65 different categories the avic-hd1bt covers even more no less than 3.4 million certain pois such as hotel chains or petrol stations are displayed on the map with their specific company logos or with a 3d icon anyone will appreciate cuisine-type restaurant listings especially when they are looking for a specific kind of restaurant like italian or chinese frequently used pois can be saved in a separate short-cut menu auto play ensures that playback of a dvd-video s first chapter starts automatically 5 seconds after the power of the unit is switched on bookmark play press the bookmark button to memorise the preferred starting position for a dvdvideo disc each time the disc is inserted it will start playing

logic ii tmc traffic message channel the navigation unit s built-in tmc receiver keeps you updated on current traffic events and suggests alternative routes refer to map on page 9 for tmc coverage area of pioneer s navigation units note when driving in the avic-x1bt s memory navi mode tmc is also available for the country you are in at the time of switching to memory navi mode and for the country prior to that the traffic information received while in memory navi mode only covers the area that has been stored in the memory in addition traffic lists will not be available however traffic icons will still appear on the map whenever a new message is received dolby digital pro logic ii reproduces multichannel surround sound from a variety of sound sources to create the thrill of 5.1-channel surround sound even from 2-channel sources dts dts 5.1-channel playback encoding technology is rapidly gaining popularity thanks to its dynamic sound impact 98
