Warning
This manual uses the term Warning to indicate a potentially hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
Failure to avoid the following potentially hazardous situations could
result in an accident or collision resulting in death or serious injury.
When navigating, carefully compare information displayed on the unit to
all available navigation sources, including information from street signs,
visual sightings, and maps. For safety, always resolve any discrepancies or
questions before continuing navigation.
Always operate the vehicle in a safe manner. Do not become distracted
by the unit while driving, and always be fully aware of all driving
conditions. Minimize the amount of time spent viewing the screen of the
unit while driving and use voice prompts when possible.
Do not enter destinations, change settings, or access any functions
requiring prolonged use of the unit’s controls while driving. Pull over in
a safe and legal manner before attempting such operations.
Keep the system’s volume at a low enough level to be able to hear
outside noises while driving. If you can no longer hear outside noises,
you may be unable to react adequately to the traffic situation. This may
cause accidents.
This navigation system can be used when the ignition key is turned to
ON or ACC. However, to preserve the battery, it should be used with
the engine running whenever possible. Using the navigation system for
a long time with the engine switched off can cause the battery to run
down.
The navigation system will not display the correct current position of the
vehicle the first time it is used after purchase, or if the battery has been
removed for a long time. GPS satellite signals will soon be received,
however, and the correct position will be displayed.
Be careful of the surrounding temperature. Using the navigation system
at extremely high or low temperatures can lead to malfunction or
damage. Also note that the unit can be damaged by strong vibration or
metal objects or by water getting inside.
