Erasing the Music Partition on the AVIC-Z1

[Blauthor]

If anyone ever wanted to erase their music partition on the AVIC-Z1 and rerecord here is the method to do so. This is the query I sent to Pioneer and their response below.

 

Inquiry: I have an AVIC-Z1; and want to erase all the music content on the HD Partition at once, is there a way to do so?

 

 

Thank you for contacting Pioneer Electronics, Inc.

By doing this reset it erase everything you have saved on the unit.

 

1 Turn the ignition switch off.

2 Press the RESET button.

3 Start the engine.

After a little time, the start-up screen comes

on for a few seconds.

4 Touch and hold the MAP button while the

start-up screen is displayed. The Clear memory screen appears.

5 Touch [Clear user information from hard

disk]. This reset operation clears all music data

recorded in the music library. Note that the

cleared data cannot be restored.

6 Touch [Yes].

The user area in the hard disk drive is initialized.

After that, the navigation system restarts.

But no one ever reads the manual.

I almost hate to hate to admit it but I always read the manuals.

I think it's 'cuz I'd hate to miss out on a feature or something.
