WARNING!

A CAREFUL NAVIGATOR NEVER RELIES ON ONLY ONE METHOD

TO OBTAIN POSITION INFORMATION.

CAUTION

When showing navigation data to a position (waypoint), a GPS unit will show

the shortest, most direct path to the waypoint. It provides navigation data to the

waypoint regardless of obstructions. Therefore, the prudent navigator will not

only take advantage of all available navigation tools when traveling to a way-

point, but will also visually check to make sure a clear, safe path to the waypoint

is always available.

WARNING!

When a GPS unit is used in a vehicle, the vehicle operator is solely re-

sponsible for operating the vehicle in a safe manner. Vehicle operators

must maintain full surveillance of all pertinent driving, boating or flying

conditions at all times. An accident or collision resulting in damage to

property, personal injury or death could occur if the operator of a GPS-

equipped vehicle fails to pay full attention to travel conditions and vehi-

cle operation while the vehicle is in motion.
