Handbrake interlock
Certain functions (such as viewing of video
image and certain touch panel key operations)
offered by this product could be dangerous
(possibly resulting in serious injury or death)
and/or unlawful if used while driving. To pre-
vent such functions from being used while the
vehicle is in motion, there is an interlock sys-
tem that senses when the handbrake is set
and when the vehicle is moving. If you attempt
to use the functions described above while
driving, they will become disabled until you
stop the vehicle in a safe place, and apply the
handbrake. Please keep the brake pedal
pushed down before releasing the handbrake.
