2. Safety and Legal Notices
Please read this section carefully before using Scout
Telenav will not accept any responsibility whatsoever for accidents resulting from failure to observe common sense
precautions. Your personal judgment, traffic regulations, and common sense must always take precedence over any
driving direction produced by Scout.
WARNING: Keep your eyes on the road.
It is your responsibility as the vehicle operator to keep your eyes on the road and be an alert driver at all times,
ESPECIALLY when the vehicle is moving. The vehicle operator should not be distracted by the application displays,
audible cues, or manually interacting with the controls. When you need to enter data on your device using the keypad or
study the display, please do so while the vehicle is parked, not while in motion. Should your ability to drive responsibly be
decreased, please turn off the device.
WARNING: Install the equipment safely.
If you are using a device mounting kit, make sure that it does not obscure your vision. You may wish to charge the
device while using Scout. If so, make sure the charging cable does not interfere with any of the vehicle controls.
WARNING: Drive safely and use common sense.
The vehicle operator’s personal judgment, traffic regulations, and common sense must always take precedence over the
instructions provided by Scout.
It is your responsibility as the vehicle operator to drive safely, observe all traffic rules, and above all use your own
personal judgment while driving. If you feel that a route suggested by the navigation software instructs you to perform an
unsafe or illegal maneuver, places you in an unsafe situation, or routes you into an area which you consider unsafe, do
not follow the instructions.
3. Data Service Options
The Scout application that you install on your device requires a means of accessing the public Internet, which is typically
provided by your carrier’s data network.
The Scout application communicates with the Scout servers to get routing, maps, and points of interest (or POI) via your
carrier’s data network. You do not need to purchase additional data services if you already have a data or email services
plan for your device. However, if you do not already have a data or email services plan, you must order one from your
wireless carrier so you can use the Scout application. For contact information, please see the “Customer Support”
section on page 83 .
