When You Switch On - Pioneer AVIC-505 Owner's Manual

When You Switch On

After your Mobile Navigation System starts up, you are presented with a cautionary message
and then asked to enter your password if one has been registered (see "Registering a password"
on page 25). What follows depends on the state of the system when it was last switched off.
• If you leave your Navigation System on when you turn off the ignition, then the next time you turn
on the ignition it will start up automatically. On the other hand, if you manually turn the system off
using the Navigation commander, you will need to switch it on manually next time.
• Using this system without starting the engine will run down your battery. Please make sure your
engine is running before you switch it on.
The first time you switch the system on, the Destination menu appears once you have dismissed
the opening screen and entered your password. You are presented with a list of options that help
you find or specify a destination in order to obtain guidance to it.
If you have used the system before and you were being guided to a destination when you last
switched it off (or turned off the ignition ), then guidance to your destination will resume as
soon as the system is switched on again. In all other cases, however, the first display you see
after dismissing the opening screen and entering your password is the Destination menu.
The Destination menu is displayed. This menu gives access to various me-thods of choosing a
destination. You can also gain access to the various system settings from this menu.
• Full details of how to use the Destination menu are given in "Settng a Route to Your Destination".
