‘Safety’ Tab

The StreetPilot III is equipped with a ‘Safe Mode’ feature to improve driver safety. By default, this

feature is enabled, but can be turned off to allow a passenger to operate the unit. When your vehicle
is moving, ‘Safe Mode’ disables the StreetPilot III functions which require signiﬁ cant operator attention
and may become a distraction while driving.

Disabled functions include:
• Map Panning
• All FIND key functions (except Recent List)
• All MENU key functions
• Creating new routes

When you come to a complete stop, these features are automatically re-enabled.

Remember that current date and time are determined by
the satellites and cannot be changed.

The ‘Safe Mode’ can be turned off to allow a passenger to
operate the unit.
