General Instructions

Safety Advice and Important Information

Before you start to mount and use this navigation system, please familiarise yourself with its
various components and functions. Furthermore, please read through the safety instructions
carefully to avoid causing injury to yourself and/or other road users.

The use of the navigation system does not under any circumstances release the driver
from his/her personal responsibility. The applicable road traffic regulations and cur­rent traffic conditions always have priority.

For safety reasons, you should install the device and enter the required information in
the navigation system before you start your journey or when your vehicle is stationary.

If you decide to install the device in your vehicle using a mount, please be aware of
the following: On no account should the screen be adjusted by moving the device it­self. Position the screen so that you are able to glance at the display quickly and easily.
The device should also be positioned in a way that avoids reflections and glare from
the screen. The screen should not be installed/positioned in a place that obstructs your
view of things that are necessary for driving the vehicle (e.g. the view of the road or
the vehicle's instruments). The screen should also not be positioned within the area di­rectly in front of the airbag as this may prevent the airbag from inflating. Make sure
the device is sufficiently secure so that it will not become dislodged even in the event
of emergency braking or a collision.

Only look at the screen when it is safe to do so. If you need to look at the screen for a
longer period of time, stop the vehicle at an appropriate and safe place.

The values in the status bar are calculated for the current speed, remaining travel time
and remaining travel distance. However the accuracy of these values cannot be guar­anteed in every case. The actual speed can always be determined by reading the vehi­cle's speedometer.

Earphone-Volume control: high volumes can damage or decrease the sensitivity of
your hearing.

The navigation system does not take the relative safety of the suggested routes into
consideration. Road closures, roadworks, height and weight restrictions, traffic and
weather conditions, or other factors that can influence the safety and the journey time
of the route are not taken into consideration for the suggested routes. Use your own
judgement to check the suitability of the suggested routes. If required, use the
“Change Route” function to calculate alternatives to the original route. Alternatively
take the road you prefer and the software will automatically perform a re-routing
(i.e. calculate a new route based on your new position).

In certain areas, one-way streets, turning restrictions and no entry signs (e.g. pedestri­an zones) cannot be accounted for. In such situations, pay particular attention to the
road signs and rules of the road that apply.

If you need the help of the emergency services (police, fire, ambulance, etc.), do not
rely exclusively on the navigation system. Act in a way that you consider to be suitable
and sensible in order to receive help in such a situation.

General Instructions

Do not subject the navigation system to high temperatures or extreme exposure to
sunlight. Temperatures over 50 °C can severely damage the navigation system, espe­cially the lithium ion battery. The lithium ion battery can only be charged within a
temperature range of 0-45 °C. Please note the safety instructions when operating the
battery! In many countries it is forbidden to dispose of empty batteries with normal
household waste. Please find out the regulations that apply in your area regarding the
disposal of used batteries.

The battery should only be charged if someone is monitoring the device. Do not open
the battery with force as this may release corrosive acids. Damaged batteries or bat­teries that are past their expiry date should no longer be used and should be disposed
of in a safe and suitable way.

Never expose the navigation system to humidity as this can result in damage. It is
especially important to protect the navigation system from getting wet if you are on
a motorcycle, bicycle or in a convertible car. This is because the device is not splash­proof.

Avoid touching the screen with sharp or rough-edged objects as these can damage the
sensitive touchscreen display.

GPS (Global Positioning System) is a satellite-based system that supports geographical
and time-related information all around the world. The system is operated and con­trolled by the United States of America. The USA is also responsible for the availability
and accuracy of this system. All changes to the GPS availability and accuracy as well as
other factors from the surrounding environment can influence the operation of the
navigation system. The supplier of this system does not accept any liability whatsoever
for the availability and accuracy of GPS data.

Please ensure that every person intending to use the navigation system reads this safe­ty information and the recommendations for operating the system beforehand.

27

Before attaching the mount to the front windscreen, you should clean the area of the
windscreen that you wish to stick the suction cup to. This is to remove grease and dust
from the area.

Differences between daytime and nighttime temperatures and/or humidity and mois­ture can break the vacuum seal under the suction cup of the mount. Therefore you
should attach the navigation system so that it will not cause any damage if it fell off
the windscreen. As a precautionary measure, you should detach the navigation system
at night.

Furthermore, if you plan to leave the vehicle unattended for a long period of time, you
should remove the navigation system from the vehicle in order to avoid theft.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Please do not use any cleaning agents or detergents to clean the screen and case of
the device. The best method is to use a soft, damp cloth.
