INFORMATION
This provides additional information.
0004U–1
To use your system as safely as possible, fol-
low all safety tips shown below.
This system is intended to assist you in reach-
ing your destination and, if used properly, can
do so.
You, as the driver, are solely responsi-
ble for the safe operation of your vehicle and
the safety of your passengers.
Do not use any feature of this system to the
extent it distracts you from safe driving.
Your first priority while driving should al-
ways be the safe operation of your vehicle.
Before attempting to use this system while
driving, learn how to use it and become thor-
oughly familiar with it.
Read the entire Navi-
gation System Manual to make sure you under-
stand the system.
Do not allow others to use
this system until they have read and understand
these and other instructions in this manual.
You can input your destination and select your
route only when the vehicle is not moving.
While driving, listen to the voice instructions
as much as possible and glance at the screen
briefly and only when safe.
The data in the system may occasionally be
incomplete.
Road conditions, including driv-
ing restrictions (no left turns, street closures,
etc.) frequently change.
Therefore, before you
follow any instruction from the system, look to
see whether you can comply with the instruc-
tion safely and legally.
This system cannot warn you about such things
as the quality of a neighborhood, condition of
streets, and availability of emergency services.
If you are unsure about the safety of an area,
don’t drive into it.
Under no circumstances is
this system a substitute for the driver’s per-
sonal judgement.
