Precautions

PRECAUTIONS

English

IMPORTANT INFORMATION, PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BE­FORE USING THIS PRODUCT.

This product is intended to safely provide turn by turn instruction to get you to a
desired destination. Please read the following precautions to ensure that you use
this navigation system correctly.

✵

This product is not a substitute for your personal judgment. Any route
suggestions made by this navigation system may never supersede any
local traffic regulations or your personal judgment and/or knowledge of
safe driving practices. Do not follow route suggestions if the navigation
system instructs you to perform an unsafe or illegal maneuver, places you
in an unsafe situation, or routes you into an area which you consider un­safe.

✵

Glance at the screen only when necessary and safe to do so. If pro­longed viewing of the screen is necessary, pull over in a safe and legal
manner and location.

✵

Do not input destinations, change settings, or access any functions
requiring a prolonged view of the monitor and/or remote control while you
are driving. Pull over in a safe and legal manner and location before at­tempting to access the system.

✵

Do not use the navigation system to route you to emergency services.
Not all locations of emergency service providers such as police and fire
stations, hospitals, and clinics are contained in the database. Please use
your own judgment and your ability to ask for directions in these situa­tions.

✵

The map database contained within the media (CD ROM) in which it is
stored is the most recent map data available at the time of production.
Because of changes in streets and neighborhoods, there may be situations
where the navigation system may not be able to route you to your desired
destination. In these cases, use your own personal judgment.

✵

The map database is designed to provide you with route suggestions, it
does not take account the relative safety of a suggested route, or of factors
which may affect the time required to reach your destination. The system
does not reflect road closures or construction, road characteristics (i.e.
type of road surface, slope or grade, weight or height restrictions, etc.),
traffic congestion, weather conditions, or any other factors which may
affect the safety or timing of your driving experience. Use your personal
judgment if the navigation system is unable to provide you with an alter-

2

nate route.

✵

There may be situations where the navigation system may display the

vehicle’s location erroneously. Use your own driving judgment in this situ­ation, taking into account current driving conditions. Please be aware that
in this situation, the navigation system should correct the vehicle’s posi­tion automatically; however, there may be times where you may have to
correct the position yourself. If this is the case, pull over in a safe and legal
manner and location before attempting operation.

✵

Make certain that the volume level of the monitor is set to a level which

still allows you to hear outside traffic and emergency vehicles.
Driving while unable to hear outside sounds could cause an accident.

✵

Position the monitor so that glancing at the screen can be performed

quickly and easily by the driver. If any adjustments are necessary, pull over
in a safe and legal manner and location.

✵

The monitor used with this system should not be placed in a location

which hinders the driver’s view of any critical elements necessary to oper­ate the vehicle properly (i.e. the road, mirrors, instruments, vehicle’s sur­roundings). In addition, the monitor should not be placed in a location
which may obstruct the air bags should they deploy.

✵

Remember to wear your seat belt at all times when the car is in motion.

This will help you avoid impact with anything in the car’s interior, including
the system itself.

✵

Please make certain that any other person who intends on using this

navigation system reads these precautions and the following instructions
carefully.

✵

If there is anything in the manual which you do not understand, or are

uncertain about the operation of the navigation system, please contact an
authorized representative before using the navigation system.
