IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS
The Magellan Maestro is a vehicle-navigation aide designed to assist you in arriving at your selected
destinations. When using the Magellan Maestro, these safety rules must be followed to prevent accidents
that can result in injury or death to yourself or others:
•
Please check the applicable regulations in your state as regards windshield mounting. Go to
www.magellanGPS.com for alternative mounting solutions.
•
When driving, the need to view the display is minimal. Voice prompts will guide you to your
destination. The driver should enter data or program the Magellan Maestro only when the vehicle
is stationary. Only a vehicle passenger should enter data or program the Magellan Maestro while
the vehicle is moving.
•
It is your responsibility to comply with all traffic laws.
•
Every attempt is made to ensure that the database is accurate. However, roads, points of interest
(POIs) and business and service locations may change over time. The database does not include,
analyze, process, consider, or reflect any of the following: legal restrictions (such as vehicle type,
weight, height, width, load and speed restrictions); road slope or gradient; bridge height, width,
weight or other limits; population density; neighborhood quality or safety; availability or proximity of
police, emergency rescue, medical or other assistance; construction work zones or hazards; road
or lane closures; road, traffic or traffic facilities’ safety or condition; weather conditions; pavement
characteristics or conditions; special events; traffic congestion. It is your responsibility to disregard
any unsafe, hazardous or illegal route suggestions.
•
Keep the Magellan Maestro safe from extreme temperature conditions. For example, do not leave
it exposed to direct sunlight for an extended period of time.
•
Take care when mounting the Magellan Maestro in your vehicle, whether using the windshield
mount or other mount or accessories, that it does not obstruct the driver’s view of the road,
interfere with the operation of the vehicle’s safety devices such as air bags, or present a hazard to
occupants of the vehicle should the Magellan Maestro be dislodged while driving. It is your
responsibility to assess the risks associated with damage to your vehicle or vehicle occupants as
the result of your choices in mounting the Magellan Maestro.
