Failure to avoid the following potentially hazardous situations
could result in an accident or collision resulting in death or
serious injury.
When using your laptop in a vehicle, place the laptop securely
so it does not obstruct the driver’s view of the road or
interfere with vehicle operating controls, such as the steering
wheel, foot pedals, or transmission levers. Do not place in
front of or above any airbag.
When navigating, carefully compare information displayed
on your laptop 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 and defer to posted road signs.

Always operate the vehicle in a safe manner. Do not become
distracted by your laptop while driving, and always be fully
aware of all driving conditions. Minimize the amount of
time spent viewing your laptop’s screen while driving and
use voice prompts when possible. Do not input destinations,
change settings, or access any functions requiring prolonged
use of your laptop’s controls while driving. Pull over in a safe
and legal manner before attempting such operations.
The navigation software is designed to provide route
suggestions. It is not designed to replace the need for driver
attentiveness regarding road closures or road conditions,
traffic congestion, weather conditions, or other factors that
may affect safety while driving.
