Warnings and Notices
z For your safety, do not operate the controls of the product while driving.
z Use this product with caution. The product is a navigation aid. It does not
provide exact measurements of direction, distance, location or topography.
z The calculated route is for reference only. Always follow the posted traffic
signs, speed limits and road restrictions.
z 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.
z 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.
z GPS satellite signals do not typically pass through solid materials such as
brick, concrete, or lead-coated safety glass. When inside a tunnel, building or
under-ground parking structures, GPS positioning will not typically be
available.
z A minimum of 4 GPS satellite signals are typically needed to determine your
GPS position. Signal reception can be affected by dense overhead structures,
severe weather, geographic location or time of day.
z Other wireless devices in the vehicle may interfere with the reception of
satellite signals and cause the reception to be unstable.
z Your GPS device is always tracking your location (you are the green arrow)
when the navigation software is running and GPS signal is available. Your
GPS device is not designed to broadcast its location; therefore it can not be
tracked by anyone else.
iii
z 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.
