IMPORTANT INFORMATION
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT
This product is intended to provide turn by turn instructions to get
you to a desired destination. Please make certain that all persons
using this navigation system carefully read these precautions and the
following instructions fully.
• 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 services such as police
and fire stations, hospitals and clinics are contained in the
database. Please use your own judgment and ask for directions in
these situations.
• The map database used in the navigation system 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 is not able to route you to your
desired destination. In these cases, use your own judgment.
• The map database is designed to provide you with route
suggestions and does not take into 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
own personal judgment if the navigation system is unable to
provide you with an alternate route.
• There may be situations where the navigation system displays 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 navigation system is set
to a level which still allows you to hear outside traffic and
emergency vehicles.

INSTALL THE PRODUCT CORRECTLY SO THAT THE DRIVER CANNOT WATCH
TV/VIDEO UNLESS THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED AND THE EMERGENCY
BRAKE IS APPLIED.
It is dangerous for the driver to watch TV/Video while driving a
vehicle. Installing this product incorrectly enables the driver to
watch TV/Video while driving. This may cause a distraction,
preventing the driver from looking ahead, thus causing an accident.
The driver or other people could be severely injured.
DO NOT WATCH VIDEO WHILE DRIVING.
Watching the video may distract the driver from looking ahead of
the vehicle and cause an accident.
DO NOT OPERATE ANY FUNCTION THAT TAKES YOUR ATTENTION AWAY
FROM SAFELY DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE.
Any function that requires your prolonged attention should only be
performed after coming to a complete stop. Always stop the vehicle
in a safe location before performing these functions. Failure to do so
may result in an accident.
DO NOT FOLLOW ROUTE SUGGESTIONS IF THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM
INSTRUCTS YOU TO PERFORM AN UNSAFE OR ILLEGAL MANEUVER, OR
PLACES YOU IN AN UNSAFE SITUATION OR AREA.
This product is not a substitute for your personal judgement. Any
route suggestions by this system should never supersede any local
traffic regulations or your personal judgement or knowledge of safe
driving practice.
KEEP THE VOLUME AT A LEVEL WHERE YOU CAN STILL HEAR OUTSIDE
NOISES WHILE DRIVING.
Excessive volume levels that obscure sounds such as emergency
vehicle sirens or road warning signals (train crossings, etc.) can be
dangerous and may result in an accident. LISTENING AT LOUD
VOLUME LEVELS IN A CAR MAY ALSO CAUSE HEARING
DAMAGE.
MINIMIZE DISPLAY VIEWING WHILE DRIVING.
Viewing the display may distract the driver from looking ahead of
the vehicle and cause an accident.
DO NOT BLOCK VENTS OR RADIATOR PANELS.
Doing so may cause heat to build up inside and may result in fire.
USE THIS PRODUCT FOR MOBILE 12V APPLICATIONS.
Use for other than its designed application may result in fire,
electric shock or other injury.
MAKE THE CORREC T CONNECTIONS.
Failure to make the proper connections may result in fire or

Arrange wiring and cables in compliance with the manual to
prevent obstructions when driving. Cables or wiring that obstruct
or hang up on places such as the steering wheel, gear lever, brake
pedals, etc. can be extremely hazardous.
DO NOT SPLICE INTO ELECTRICAL CABLES.
Never cut away cable insulation to supply power to other
equipment. Doing so will exceed the current carrying capacity of
the wire and result in fire or electric shock.
DO NOT DAMAGE PIPE OR WIRING WHEN DRILLING HOLES.
When drilling holes in the chassis for installation, take precautions
so as not to contact, damage or obstruct pipes, fuel lines, tanks or
electrical wiring. Failure to take such precautions may result in fire.
DO NOT USE BOLTS OR NUTS IN THE BRAKE OR STEERING SYSTEMS TO
MAKE GROUND CONNECTIONS.
Bolts or nuts used for the brake or steering systems (or any other
safety-related system), or tanks should NEVER be used for
installations or ground connections. Using such parts could disable
control of the vehicle and cause fire etc.
DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WHICH MIGHT HINDER VEHICLE
OPERATION, SUCH AS THE STEERING WHEEL OR GEARSHIFT.
Doing so may obstruct forward vision or hamper movement etc.
and results in serious accident.
DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR ALTER.
Doing so may result in an accident, fire or electric shock.
