General safety notes
•
Traffic
:
It is advisable to strictly adhere to all eventual
European and national legislation and also honour other
eventual safety recommendations when using the device
while driving a vehicle. When receiving a call in an awk-
ward driving situation, you must always put safety before
other priorities and courtesy. If you feel uncomfortable
about using a device while driving, you should not use it.
•
Air bags
: An air bag inflates with great force. Do not place
objects, including either installed or portable wireless
devices, in an area over the air bag or in the air bag
deployment area.
•
External alert
:
The use of the alert device to operate a
vehicle´s lights or horn on public roads is not permitted.
•
Children
:
Keep the device and its accessories away from
small children to avoid causing injury to themselves or
others. Damage to the device or its accessories is also thus
avoided.
•
Power supply
:
The device is intended for use with the
power supplies specified in
. Any other usage will invalidate any approval
given to this apparatus and may be dangerous.
•
Loose batteries
: Make sure, the batteries and spare bat-
teries are kept away from conductive materials, such as
coins, jewelry, keys, and other metal objects, because a
close contact of these materials and batteries can cause
short-circuit, injury, burns or some other damage. Be
especially careful when placing batteries inside your
pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects.
•
Other accessories
: Any other accessories used should
also be approved by the device manufacturer. Check the
compatibility of new power supply units and other acces-
sories at the dealer. Disconnect the power cord of any
accessory by grasping and pulling the plug, not the cord.
•
Connections
: All installations, connections and service
regarding the device, its power supply and accessories
should be approved by the device manufacturer. Use of
any unauthorized accessories, modifications or attach-
ments may be dangerous and voids the device warranty if
said accessories cause damage or a defect to the device.
Note that device´s own antenna must be disconnected
when attaching an external GSM antenna to the device.
The external GSM antenna adapter is a standard cable
containing two separate connectors: SMA for the Track-
box, and FME for the external antenna.
•
Magnetic fields
: The device contains small magnetic
components. Even though the magnetic fields of the com-
ponents are weak, they might damage magnetic cards,
such as bank and credit cards. We recommend that you
would keep the device away from magnetic cards.
•
Storing positions
: Position information is stored cor-
rectly in the device when the GPS is turned off (from the
GPS menu) or powered off (by pressing the topmost side
key). To prevent the memory from becoming corrupted,
never power off the device by removing the battery.
