Warning
In order to prevent distractions which can
lead to an accident, the driver should only
activate the system while the vehicle is at a
standstill and operate the system only when
road, weather and traffic conditions permit.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), your vehicle is
covering a distance of 44 feet (approximately
14 m) every second.
G
Warning
The driver should not wear a headset while
operating the vehicle under any circum-
stances. The use of a headset while driving
the vehicle could drastically impair the ability
to react to audible traffic conditions (e.g.
emergency sirens from police/fire/ambu-
lance, another drivers horn, etc.).
