view in addition to 2D and 3D, which divides the map view screen with a new
graph to provide drivers with a visual representation of their environmental
impact.
- Gas Mileage: You can estimate the fuel cost to your destination
by entering in approximate fuel price per gallon.
- Eco Drive Level Guidance: This navigation is equipped with the
Eco Drive Level function that estimates how well you have driven in an
environmentally friendly way based on your Eco Score. When a route is set,
the unit will calculate a Drive Score based on driving efficiency which
factors abrupt stops and accelerations and idle time. Your Eco Score is
calculated from the following:
- Speed: indicates the speed detected (this indication may be
different from actual speed of vehicle)
- Acceleration/Deceleration: indicates acceleration or deceleration
velocity of your vehicle
- Distance: indicates driving distance
- Incline: indicates the degree of slope of the street that you are
currently on
- Sudden Start Alert: If the speed of the vehicle exceeds 25.5 mph
within 5 seconds from the time it is started, a message appears and a
warning sound beeps.
Note: The fuel mileage calculated is based on a theoretical value
determined from vehicle speed and position information from the navigation
system. The fuel mileage displayed is only a reference value, and does not
guarantee the mileage displayed can be obtained.
Travel History: The Track Logger feature enables you to record your
driving (travel) history to the unit's built-in flash memory or an inserted
SD/SDHC card.
Route Simulation: A simulation drives you through the route,
following the driving instructions.
Intelligent Reroute: If you deviate from the set route, the system will
recalculate the route from that point so that you remain on track to your
destination.
AVIC Feeds: Through Pioneer's proprietary
AVIC FEEDS PC software, the unit can estimate
the fuel cost of trip routes as well as the vehicle's CO2 emissions through
detailed Drive Reports. Through a proprietary fuel consumption algorithm, AVIC
FEEDS can also log and archive driving data and analyze driving habits to
generate various reports with suggestions to improve fuel efficiency. You can
also create custom Points of Interest (POIs) by using
the AVIC Feeds utility program. Once created, you can store the POI on an
external storage device, such as a SD/SDHC card, and upload the information to
the unit.
Note: AVIC Feeds available on the Pioneer website (pioneerelectronics.com).

iPhone, via the Pioneer CD-IU51V iPod connector cable (sold separately). The
Pioneer AVIC-Z130BT provides control over your Pandora music service and
displays Artist, Album, and Song information; as well as Album art. You can
select Pandora stations from your station list and skip song tracks within a
station. You can also give songs a thumbs up/down and bookmark songs/artists. To
access Pandora you must have an Apple iPhone (ver. 3.0), iPhone 3G (ver. 3.0 or
later), iPhone 3GS (ver.3.0 or later), or iPhone 4 (ver. 4.0) with the latest
version of the Pandora application from Apple's iTunes App Store. Your iPhone
will need an active Data Plan account with connection to the Internet via 3G,
EDGE, or WiFi. You will also need a Pandora music service account.
Note: Access to the Pandora service will depend on the
availability of a cellular and/or WiFi network for purposes of allowing your
iPhone to connect to the Internet. Pandora is not supported in Canada and is
only available in the United States.
Aha Radio Compatibility: The Pioneer multimedia-navigation head unit
offers compatibility with the Aha Radio app (free) for iPhone (iOS 3.0 or
later), which provides audio streams of a user's social network and RSS feeds,
podcasts, and local Yelp reviews in a non-distracting format. Via an iPhone
running the free Aha Radio Mobile App connected to the Pioneer AVIC-Z130BT, you
can listen to the latest traffic conditions on your current road or commute
road, listen to Facebook and Twitter updates, access hundreds of podcasts and
other services such as the "Hungry" and "Coffee" stations which deliver
real-time vicinity search results and directions to preferred restaurant
categories listed on Yelp. Aha Radio offers over 100 content and podcast
stations that can be conveniently accessed and controlled directly on the
touchscreen of the Pioneer AVIC-Z130BT through the connection of your Apple
iPhone (Pioneer CD-IU51V iPod connector cable required and sold separately).
Note: Your iPhone will need an active Data
Plan account with connection to the Internet via 3G, EDGE, or WiFi. You will
also need a Pandora music service account. Access to the Aha Radio will depend on the
availability of a cellular and/or WiFi network for purposes of allowing your
iPhone to connect to the Internet. Not available in Canada.
iPod/iPhone Charging: The head unit's USB connection will

Note: Apple iPod/iPhone software updates may change
functionality results. If you download a newer software version, you may
need to reset the head unit and your iPod/iPhone to regain functionality. If
this doesn't work, you may need to revert to the older software version or
wait until a newer software update is available.
iOS 5.0 Note: The In-Dash Navigation AV Receiver's Pandora Internet Radio & Aha Radio iPhone
functions are currently experiencing audio playback issues with Apple's latest
iOS 5.0 software update for the iPhone.
Note: Pandora version 3.1.15 was released on the Apple App store
which includes the fix for the iOS5 audio playback issues with Pioneer AVIC
head units.
MusicSphere: Pioneer's new proprietary MusicSphere
technology allows you to enjoy your music in a new way by creating unique
mood-based playlists via iTunes for your iPod, iPod Touch, or iPhone device.
When installed on your Windows PC, the MusicSphere iTunes plug-in software will
analyze the entire music library and create specialized playlists based on
various musical attributes such as feeling (bright, energetic, gloomy, relaxing
calm), rhythm pattern, beats per minute (BPM), year of the song and/or date
added to the device. Additionally, through the MusicSphere, you can select
preferred parameters of your music to create a "DJ Playlist".
Built-in Bluetooth
Bluetooth Technology: The AVIC-Z130BT is equipped with
built-in Bluetooth ver. 2.0 (powered by Parrot) allowing to make and receive
phone calls wirelessly through the receiver. Bluetooth Technology is a
short-range wireless radio connectivity technology that was developed as a cable
replacement for mobile phones and other electronic devices. Bluetooth operates
in 2.4 GHz frequency range and transmits voice and data at speeds up to 1
megabit per second. In order to use Bluetooth wireless technology, your phone
must be able to interpret certain profiles. This unit is compatible with the
following: HFP (Hands Free Profile), PBAP (Phone Book Access Profile), OPP
(Object Push Profile), A2DP (Audio Streaming Profile), and AVRCP (Audio Control
Profile).
Phone Pairing: Up to 5 Bluetooth-compatible devices can be
registered to this head unit. Only one device can be used at a time.
Note: Not all Bluetooth mobile devices will be
compatible. Visit Pioneer's website for a complete list of compatible
Bluetooth enabled phones.
Hands-Free Communication: The AVIC-Z130BT supports wireless
hands-free communication (HFP/PBAP/OPP) for your Bluetooth enabled mobile phone.
The head unit will display the caller's information and an audible ring tone will
be heard through your vehicle's speaker during an incoming call. You can
manually answer an incoming call or have the unit automatically answer the call.
The AVIC-Z130BT allows you to carry on a phone conversation from your Bluetooth
enabled mobile phone using the head unit's external microphone and your car audio
speakers. During a conversation you can adjust the volume, as well as switch
between the Private Mode (talking directly on your cell phone) and the Hands
Free Mode. Using the AVIC-Z130BT, you can dial a phone number in one of the
following ways:
- Entering a Phone Number: You can make a call by
entering the phone number using the head unit's on-screen keypad (0-9, *, #,
+, C).
- Call Home: You can save your Home phone number for
quick & easy dialing.
- Phone Book: The phone book in your Bluetooth enabled
cellular phone will be transferred automatically when the phone is paired to
this unit. After finding the number you want to call in the phone book, you
can select the entry and make the call. If a lot of numbers are registered
in the phone book, you can search for the phone number by alphabet search
mode.
A maximum of 1,000 phone book entries can be transferred per cellular phone.
Each entry can hold up to 5 phone numbers.
- Call History: The most recent calls dialed, received,
and missed are stored in memory. Each call history saves up to 30 calls per
registered cellular phone. You can browse them and call numbers from
these lists.
- Favorite Locations: You can make a call to an location stored in
the unit's Navigation Favorites list.
- POI Dialing: You can make a call to a point-of-interest which
contains phone number data.
- Map Dialing: You can make a call by selecting the icon of a
registered location or a POI icon from the map (must contain phone number
data).
External Microphone: During your wireless phone call, you
can talk into the head unit's included microphone, and listen to the other party
through the vehicle's speaker system. The external microphone provides better
performance in noisy environments than an integrated microphone found on the
front-panel of many other in-dash head units. The microphone features a 13' cord that
plugs into the back of the radio, and comes with an adjustable visor-mount clip.
Note: This unit is not equipped with an integrated front-panel mic.
Echo Canceling with Noise Reduction: This function reduces echo and
noise when using the multimedia-navigation's Bluetooth hands-free communication
feature.
Bluetooth Audio Players: In addition to supporting
Bluetooth's Hands-Free Profile (HFP), the head unit also supports Bluetooth's
wireless Audio Streaming Profile (A2DP) and Bluetooth's Audio Control Profile (AVRCP).
These features allow you to wirelessly transmit music from your Bluetooth
compatible cell-phone or portable audio player to the AVIC-Z130BT so you can
listen to your stored music files through your vehicle's audio system.
AV Connections
Dual AV Inputs: The AVIC-Z130BT features two rear-panel AV
inputs (composite/3.5mm). There is a rear-panel A/V input (composite
video/stereo RCA audio) for connecting a video component such as a VCR or game
console. The AVIC-Z130BT also has rear-panel AV 3.5mm
minijack input for connecting a portable
audio/video device. The AV 3.5mm input is provided by the included
proprietary USB/minijack cable.
AV Output (with Dual Zone): The AVIC-Z130BT features a
rear-panel composite video/stereo RCA audio output that allows you to connect an
external display to the unit. You can playback audio/video content from a DVD/CD
disc, the AV 1 inputs, or the same source as the built-in
monitor. You can select the unit to output a 16:9, Letter-Box or Pan-Scan aspect
ratio to match your external display's screen size.
Note: You cannot play DivX files on the unit's monitor
and a connected external monitor at the same time.
Rear View Camera: The AVIC-Z130BT is equipped with a
composite video Rear View Camera input. The head unit features a function that
automatically switches to the rear camera image (Rear View Camera In jack) when
an optional rear camera (130NDBC4,
sold separately) is installed on your vehicle. When your vehicle's shift lever
is in the reverse position, the screen automatically switches to the rear view
camera (the purple/white wire in the wiring harness must be connected to the
vehicle's reverse lamp circuit for automatic video switching).
Voice/Remote Control
Voice Recognition: The Pioneer navigation system uses voice
recognition technology, allowing you to use voice commands to operate many of
its functions. The Pioneer AVIC-Z130BT offers specific voice commands for
Navigation (address/POI search), iPod/iPhone (Search by
Artist/Album/Genre/Playlist), Bluetooth Phone (call contact from Phonebook) and
AV sources (switch AV sources). Voice commands our recognized by the unit
through its external microphone.
Steering Wheel Remote Compatibility: The head unit features
an OEM steering wheel remote control input on the rear of the unit to allow you
to keep your vehicle's radio steering wheel remote controls when used with the
optional PAC SWI-RC Steering Wheel Control Interface Adapter (541SWIRC,
sold separately); or the optional Metra ASWC Steering Wheel Control Interface
Adapter (120ASWC,
sold separately).
Note: Please consult the
Crutchfield Car Selector to see if your vehicle is compatible.
