Keep this

For safety reasons, this manual indicates
items requiring particular attention with the
following marks.
CAUTION
This is a warning against something
which may cause injury to people if
the warning is ignored.
You are in-
formed what you must or must not do

NOTICE

INFORMATION
This provides additional information.
0001u
To use your system as safely as possible,
follow all safety tips shown below.
This system is intended to assist you in
reaching your destination and, if used
properly, can do so.
You, as the driver, are
solely responsible for the safe operation of
your vehicle and the safety of your passen-
gers.
Do not use any feature of this system to
the extent it distracts you from safe
driving.
Your first priority while driving
should always be the safe operation of
your vehicle.
Before attempting to use this system while
driving, learn how to use it and become
thoroughly familiar with it.
Read the entire
Navigation System Manual to make sure
you understand 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
driving restrictions (no left turns, street clo-
sures, etc.) frequently change.
Therefore,
before you follow any instruction from the
system, look to see whether you can com-
ply with the instruction 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 sys-
tem a substitute for the driver’s person-
al judgement.
