Warnings and Notices

For your safety, do not operate the controls of the product while driving.
Use this product with caution. The product is a navigation aid. It does not
provide exact measurements of direction, distance, location or topography.
The calculated route is for reference only. Always follow the posted traffic
signs, speed limits and road restrictions.
When you leave your car, do not leave your device on the dashboard in direct
sunlight. This can cause the battery to overheat and malfunction.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the United States
government, which is solely responsible for its performance. Any change to the GPS system can affect the accuracy of all GPS equipment world-wide.
GPS satellite signals cannot typically pass through solid materials (except
glass). GPS location information is not typically available inside buildings, tunnels, or underground parking lots.
A minimum of 4 GPS satellite signals is needed to calculate your GPS
position. Signal reception can be affected by weather events or overhead obstacles (e.g. dense foliage and tall buildings).
Other wireless devices in the vehicle may interfere with the reception of
satellite signals and cause the reception to be unstable.
v
A device holder is needed when using the device in a car. Be sure to place the
device in an appropriate place, so as not to obstruct the driver’s view, or deployment of airbags.
Do not mount where the driver’s field of vision is blocked.
Do not place on the dashboard unsecured.
Do not mount in front of airbag panels.
Do not mount in front of an airbag field of deployment.
