Before Using the System
Important Safety Information
Before using your navigation system, be sure to
read and fully understand the following safety
information:
• Do not attempt to install or service your
navigation system by yourself. Installation
or servicing of the navigation system by
persons without training and experience in
electronic equipment and automotive
accessories may be dangerous and could
expose you to the risk of electric shock or
other hazards.
• When a route is calculated, the route and
voice guidance for the route is automati-
cally set. Also, for day or time traffic regu-
lations, only information about traffic
regulations at the time when the route was
calculated is shown. One-way streets and
street closures may not be taken into con-
sideration. For example, if a street is open
during the morning only, but you arrive
later, it would be against the traffic regula-
tions so you cannot drive along the set
route. When driving, please follow the
actual traffic signs. Also, the system may
not know some traffic regulations.
❒ Read the entire manual before operating this
navigation system.
❒ The navigation features of your navigation sys-
tem (and rear view camera option if pur-
chased) are intended solely as an aid to you in
the operation of your vehicle. It is not a substi-
tute for your attentiveness, judgement, and
care when driving.
❒ Do not operate this navigation system (or the
rear view camera option if purchased) if doing
so will divert your attention in any way from
the safe operation of your vehicle. Always
observe safe driving rules and follow all exist-
ing traffic regulations. If you experience diffi-
culty in operating the system or reading the
display, park your vehicle in a safe location
and apply the handbrake before making the
necessary adjustments.
❒ Never allow others to use the system unless
they have read and understood the operating
instructions.
❒ Never use this navigation system to route to
hospitals, police stations, or similar facilities
in an emergency. Stop using any functions
relating to the hands-free phone and please
call the appropriate emergency number.
❒ Route and guidance information displayed by
this equipment is for reference purposes only.
It may not accurately reflect the latest permis-
sible routes, road conditions, one way streets,
road closures, or traffic restrictions.
❒ Traffic restrictions and advisories currently in
force should always take precedence over
guidance given by the navigation system.
Always obey current traffic restrictions, even if
the navigation system provides contrary
advice.
❒ Failure to set correct information about the
local time may result in the navigation system
providing improper routing and guidance
instructions.
❒ Never set the volume of your navigation sys-
tem so high that you cannot hear outside traf-
fic and emergency vehicles.
❒ To promote safety, certain functions are disa-
bled unless the vehicle is stopped and/or the
handbrake is applied.
❒ The data encoded in the hard disk drive for the
navigation system is the intellectual property
of the provider, and the provider is responsible
for such content.
