Thank you for your email, our Parent Company in Japan have provided us information & requested we respond to your query direct.
The AVIC-ZH77 HDD type Navigation unit with TV/FM/AM/CD/DVD is designed for the Japanese market only. It is not possible to change the language to English & there is no English manual available. Navigation function is available only for Japan. TV function is available only for Japan. FM/AM tuner is designed to tune to Japanese stations only. DVD plays Japan region code disc only. (Region code for Japan is 2). We are sorry we could not be of assistance. Thanks for your help pioneer anyone read Japanese?? |

Pull it out.
Put it on ebay (with the clear statement it will only work in Japan) Buy a new one. Or Move to Japan where it will work It is obviously useless too you anywhere else.

There must be somebody that speaks Japanese in you area that can give you a hand. Where do the tuner crowd hang out? Stop by there and ask around. They can probably have it up and going in no time.

So your saying you are the tuner crowd there then. Go for a drive? There has to be somebody, someplace on the island that can read Japanese. All out of ideas here.

If their manual is available as a PDF download, you may be able to copy and paste chunks into Google Translate. I've done that successfully on other manuals. As long as the conversion to PDF wasn't done by simply scanning (resulting only in bitmap images), and if they didn't protect the document (as several radio manufacturers like to do on some of theirs), the text should be copyable.
Of course, if the BT functions are operated by voice recognition, you'll still have to learn some Japanese phrases.
