Warning

This manual uses the term Warning to indicate a potentially hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

Failure to avoid the following potentially hazardous situations could result in an accident or collision resulting in death or serious injury.

When navigating, carefully compare information displayed on the unit to all available navigation sources, including information from street signs, visual sightings, and maps. For safety, always resolve any discrepancies or questions before continuing navigation.

Always operate the vehicle in a safe manner. Do not become distracted by the unit while driving, and always be fully aware of all driving conditions. Minimize the amount of time spent viewing the screen of the unit while driving and use voice prompts when possible.

Do not enter destinations, change settings, or access any functions requiring prolonged use of the unit’s controls while driving. Pull over in a safe and legal manner before attempting such operations.

Keep the system’s volume at a low enough level to be able to hear outside noises while driving. If you can no longer hear outside noises, you may be unable to react adequately to the traffic situation. This may cause accidents.

This navigation system can be used when the ignition key is turned to ON orACC. However, to preserve the battery, it should be used with the engine running whenever possible. Using the navigation system for a long time with the engine switched off can cause the battery to run down.

The navigation system will not display the correct current position of the vehicle the first time it is used after purchase, or if the battery has been removed for a long time. GPS satellite signals will soon be received, however, and the correct position will be displayed.

Be careful of the surrounding temperature. Using the navigation system at extremely high or low temperatures can lead to malfunction or damage.Also note that the unit can be damaged by strong vibration or metal objects or by water getting inside.
