Safety Precautions
When using this navigation system, follow the precautions listed below. After reading this manual, be
sure to keep it in a handy place (such as the glove box of your car).
CAUTION
Cautions
•
While driving, set the volume so that sound
from outside the vehicle can be heard.
Driving without hearing sound from the
outside of the vehicle may cause a traffic
incident.
Warnings
•
This navigation system should not be used as a substitute for your own judgment. Any route
suggestions made by this navigation system may never override any local traffic regulations,
your own judgment, and/or knowledge of safe driving practices. Disregard route suggestions
by the navigation system if such suggestions would: cause you to perform a hazardous or
illegal maneuver, place you in a hazardous situation, or route you into an area you consider
unsafe.
•
The advice provided by the navigation system is to be regarded only as a suggestion(s)/
There may be situations where the navigation system displays the vehicle’s location
incorrectly, fails to suggest the shortest course, and/or fails to direct you to your desired
destination. In such situations, rely on your own driving judgment, taking into account
current driving conditions.
•
Do not use the navigation system to route you to emergency services. The database does
not contain a complete listing of locations of emergency service providers such as police,
fire stations, hospitals and clinics. Please use your judgment and your ability to ask for
directions in these situations.
•
As a driver you are solely responsible for your road safety.
•
In order to avoid a traffic accident or traffic offence, remember that actual road conditions
and traffic regulations take precedence over the information contained in the navigation
system.
•
Accordingly, the software may contain inaccurate or incomplete information due to the
passage of time, changing circumstances, and due to the nature of the sources used.
Please observe the actual traffic circumstances and regulations at all times while driving.
•
The navigation system does not provide, or account for in any way; information regarding
traffic and road laws; vehicle specifications including weight, height, width, load, and/or
speed restrictions; road conditions including road slope, grade, and/or surface
conditions; obstruction information including bridge and tunnel height and width, and/or
other prevailing driving and/or road conditions. Always rely on your own driving
judgment, taking into account current driving conditions.
•
Minimize the amount of time spent viewing the screen while driving.
•
The driver should not operate this unit while driving.
Be sure to stop the vehicle in a safe place when the driver is operating this unit. For safety,
some of the navigation functions are prohibited if the vehicle is not stopped with the parking
brake engaged.
