sat nav - how
hi all

I'm going to buy a pioneer avic x1 sat nav from Italy from a person in Milano. What the best way to test the system?

Do you connect it to a 12v car battery?
What other things should I look out for?

First step is to get the hardware manual in english

You will need to power the system, and connect a sat nav aerial
at the very least you should be shown where you are on a map.

CARE the map that comes with the system may not have the required street level detail of the UK.

These things require careful install, you need to make sure the sat nav aerial gets a good view of the sky. There will be signal cables for speedo pulse, and maybe a reversing switch.
